All your points are spot on apart from the train station. It's only 5 mins or less by car from MK station and I suspect club would provide shuttle buses. They did when we had a friendly there last preseason.I agree with you. I live around 20-30 minutes away and have been to plenty of different games there. I've never been to a game where the ground has sold out (even at 22k capacity) and every time the parking has been awful, let alone when we're there selling out every week.
There's a couple of supermarkets which don't allow match day parking and only a few small car parks where you pay entry. Not to mention I don't think there's a single pub in walking distance
Also worth noting the ground isn't in central MK, but in a smaller town called Bletchley so those getting the train from London would have to get another change from MK to Bletchley I believe
I agree .It is a great modern stadium holding about 30k.Nice roads,train station and car park!Before people start throwing their toys out of their prams they should check it out!
No No No
not disagreeing but can you explain what they've actually done wrong?Couldn't care less if it's made of gold and gingerbread with a free bollock-massager on every seat. Anything we do to legitimise that 'club' is simply indefensible.
I guess it's all about the money, honey.Why can't we just primarily play in Wembley and then if needs be play at MK as a back up in case of scheduling clashes. Wouldn't it make more sense as we wouldn't have to share a ground and it could potentially grow the status of the club in the process.
Stainless steel stadium with a doner kebab machine at each entrance?Can't Archway knock us up a temporary stadium?
If we go to MK then I hope the rumours of season ticket holders being able to have a pass for one season is true as I won't be renewing mine to go there for a season. If the club subsidise my travel costs then I would reconsider.

Nobody's saying its like what happened to Wimbledon. They're saying that because of the total fuckery MK Dons pulled on Wimbledon, it would be a disgrace for our club to be associated with them in any way, and especially for us to be paying them a lot of money to use their stadium for two years.I think us moving to MK for a season or two is completely different to what happened to Wimbledon. MK would offer us a ground not too much smaller than ours (or even bigger if it can go to 40k for the rugby WC).
I'm not against it (I am only 30/40 minutes away) as I don't many options if we have to move out of WHL.
They are currently struggling, in debt and without ownership of their own ground
For MP...It would be nice to have MM, MS and MD for when we're playing at MK
