Just reading about this, I was told that when the current top tier went on in MK, the structure was designed to go up to a maximum 53,000 capacity.

We have to dream big from now on, so what do you reckon to this timeline for us:-
May 27 - promoted to League 1
May 29 - promoted to the Championship
May 34 - promoted to the Premier League
May 35 - relegated to the Championship
May 37 - promoted to the Premier League
May 42 - Champions League qualification
May 45 - New capacity 53,000

Not bad. I reckon 20 years ...

We shouldn't have built the second tier to start with, let alone be looking to add a third!

So you don't believe in the possibility of Mk Dons Premiership football in your lifetime ?

Assuming we've hit rock bottom this season, the only way is up.

Positive Mental Attitude - that's what Mr Warne and team are about.

I believe in one step at a time, to mention MKDons and the Premier League in the same breath is a joke where the club is at the moment.

I'm talking 2037...

We'll be like Swindon if we don't start thinking positively.
