Wimbledon FC's 1997–98 season continued the tradition of the "Crazy Gang" era with their unpredictable and combative football style. Despite being unfancied, the team managed a respectable 15th-place finish in the Premier League, ensuring survival in the top tier. Their campaign was marked by inconsistency but also memorable performances that reflected their aggressive and physical playing philosophy. Key players included the likes of Robbie Earle and Efan Ekoku, who provided crucial contributions throughout the season. However, the team struggled to maintain their earlier success from previous seasons. Manager Joe Kinnear worked to preserve Wimbledon's hard-fighting identity despite the increasing competitiveness of the league. Off the pitch, the club faced challenges in maintaining its standing as a smaller team in an evolving Premier League landscape. This season was one of transition for Wimbledon as they sought to balance their unique style with the demands of modern football.
