Birstall Owl Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 @BetterCallSaulDo you think because of the catchment area that when the club moved they thought the crowds would be bigger? Problem I see is if you live in MK and support Spurs, Arsenal, West Ham, Chelsea, Man Utd , Liverpool etc you still are going to support these big clubs as that's the reason you support them in the first place a bit of glory.

I think that has been true for basically our entire history, but you have to look at it in context. Statistically we’ve had the youngest fan base in the country, and the kids are starting to grow up, we are starting to get more and more fans who have only been MK Dons fans as they’ve grown up with them as their team. It will take time, of course. And MK is a London spill over town, but you can see it is starting to develop a good base of young adults who are purely Dons fans like myself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is far too big for you. Kenilworth would be about your level at the minute. Luton would need a bigger stadium to accommodate the increase in attendance. @BetterCallSaul it would be ironic to see MK Dons relocated against the will of their fans wouldn't it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HIGHERSTATE Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Apologies for the Wednesday fans with the big massive chips on their shoulder. It's going to get incredibly twitchy if we face the prospect of staying in League 1 next season. I hate the thought. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
