Hopefully as soon as possible and hopefully this will speed things up.

Have to admit it's a lovely stadium.....but once again, like so many of these 'new' stadiums it's built well away from any habitation which makes it a bit souless until you are actually inside.

Can't figure out why they're spending all that money to end up with a stadium that they can't even half fill now?

Is this all part of a cunning plan to share/merge with Spurs?

What what be the point of having concerts there when the MK Bowl is just down the road?

 I hate what MKDons represent but the Stadium is a lovely place to watch football. One of the best - irrespective of size and staure IMO.

 

Do MKDons own the MK Bowl? - if not, your question is answered! the point of the extra seats is to bring in extra revenue- they don't go off like food.

Read the report. It's all about attracting and maintaining revenue from other sources, apart from football.

And if they do pull Man U in the cup, then they can fill the ground with Manure plastics.

Initial plans for the project included the possibility of adding a third tier and taking the capacity to 45,000.

You couldn't make it up!

It's not clear who is funding this. I find it hard to believe the football club are.

Then, when you're actually inside it's even more souless.

Seems to me they are not paying for it. It's being paid for by the retail development.

I was told by a MK Dons fan the other week at our away game, that the only reason the stadium didn't get finished was that M & S pulled out of buying the large piece of land behind the away end due to the current economic crisis.
