martyn8484 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Thinking of driving to the MK Dons match, the grounds on a retail park with a pretty sizeable car park but can anyone confirm what it's like on match day's? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 We just parked on the industrial estate opposite last time Absolute shithouse to get out of though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eckington owl Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 we parked in the stadium last time - avoid at all costs! Cost about £8 and it was an absolute slag to get out after the game, was a Tuesday night as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southernblues Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 It was Tuesday night and was absolutely freezing ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedfordowl Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Traffic there is bad on a normal day at peak times so extra bad on a matchday however easy to get to and plenty of parking. Closest game of season for me can be there in 20 mins on a good day :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 It will be f*ckin freezing.....why do we always have to play them at night, in winter......a recent away match and MK Dons was the 2nd coldest I've ever been in my life.....the coldest was the time before that.

metaframe Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Park at IKEA and use the back entrance to get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My coldest was Oldham away the season we got promoted. Genuinely thought I was going to get hyperthermia. Mk Dons not far behind, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxine Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 (edited) My coldest was reading away last season and a crap match aswell. I'm going to MK Dons might have to buy some thermals. Edited November 24, 2015 by Maxine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevthelodgemoorowl Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 My Coldest was FA Cup Fulham away some time 81-83. Now that was cold ! We won though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mkowl Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Going to get the Mrs to do a bit of Christmas shopping at the Asda that evening so she can pick me up Cinema and restaurants on the land back of the away end now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I'm getting the train from Northampton to Bletchley station then walking to the ground , is that defintely the easiest way? Always thought it was near Central MK so glad i looked into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam779 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 It's about a 2 mile walk from Bletchley, so you may need a taxi (best to pre-book from there). The closest station is Fenny Stratford which is around a mile away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest station is Fenny Stratford which is around a mile away. Fenny station is nearly as far from the ground as Bletchley and you have to go from Bletchley (or Bedford) to get there and the trains only run about 1 an hour. I would say Bletchley station is no more than a mile to the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Owl Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) Will we get clamped if we park in IKEA/Asda? Edited December 6, 2015 by GroundhoppingOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mkowl Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Will we get clamped if we park in IKEA/Asda? They are a bit arsey about it whenever I have been There are industrial estates nearby but its a bit like around Hillsborough - you never know if they will seek to clamp you or not. Good news though is that they have lifted most of the roadworks jn 16 -19 on the M1 - just left with those at 19 where they are building the new M6 / A14 junction Did Sheffield in just under 2 hours yesterday morning - first time for years for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
