Not what I was told by an industry insider on Friday...


Exactly, there's 304 rooms.

Is Stadium MK a complete white elephant? Too big, no atmosphere, must cost a fortune to run. Add in the ongoing losses, and we might as well pack up and sell it to the Saints.
Know the limits and settle.

A small hockey ground would be about right.


Yes I have to agree, what we need to do is demolish it and rebuild a replica of six fingers complete with the massive puddles everywhere you try to walk and the car park, yes, we must get one like that, I so enjoy having to wash my car in the freezing cold just for the privilege of paying to park in a bog! :roll:

1 out of 10 for trying.

I see were your coming from with our ground being to big take a club like Brentford small ground but it is full all the time , great atmosphere, and they will be moving to a new ground soon that holds 20000 that will still be three quarters full , our problem could be ground to big ,no atmosphere, hence poor results, but we are stuck with being at stadium mk forever so we must make it , that means championship football minuem , what a chance we had a couple of years ago.

It is not 'our ground' in the sense that MKDons Ltd doesn't own it. :ugeek: :ugeek:
My understanding is basically that we rent it from Stadium MK Ltd. We just happen to play there. ;)

Half of Northampton work in MK. Half of them shop in MK sand half of them watch Rugby in MK when rugby is played in MK.

Weird bunch but they know he’d rather be here than there.

Don't know where the idea of "ever increasing losses" came from.


It was a sitcom starring Richard Briers...
