So you want a poll to see if you're correct, just after you claimed there is a vocal "minority" that want to keep the name?


Yea whats wrong with that?

And I mean a proper club administered poll, not by supporter groups.

As certain as those that say there’s a vocal minority who want the change.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the owners are seriously considering it or have done already, they aren’t emotionally invested the way Pete was.

The owners are considering a name change, that's clear from the new badge ideas.

They want to be known as Milton Keynes Dons instead of MK Dons.

As I've mention3d many times, travelling away from home for 14 years and having season tickets in every part of the ground over the years and currently interchanging between the East Stand and The Cowshed, I've not met anyone who wants to drop the Dons. Mention it and it's shut down as quickly as it's left my mouth.

Maybe you should be in favour of a fanbase poll then to put it to bed once and for all?

What will we benefit from it that we don't with it?


Doesn’t matter what I say does it, you’ll find a way of countering it or disputing it or otherwise disagreeing. Waste of time when both of us hold strong polar opposite views, my view isn’t aimed at the hardcore vocal minority who are desperate to keep the name.

What we really need is a poll of the fanbase - a new one - to see what the overall view is of dropping the name. I know one was done a while ago but views change (including my own).


So you want regular polls until you get the outcome that suits you????
Have some respect for those that went through hell and back supporting the previous incarnation a long time before you were around sonny!

RESPECT OUR HISTORY!!!

Not sure if this is a serious post or not

And I can’t remember saying “regular polls”. I don’t even know for sure if there was a previous one, if it was it was right at the start. Just one will do fine.
