Gribz 743 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Quality stadium. Only holds 8000 at the moment but looks like it has potential for a lot more. http://www.mkdons.premiumtv.co.uk/page/stadiummk/0,,10420,00.html Im sure Calscot and Wija know a bit more 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I saw it on Soccer AM yesterday. Definately looks a crackin' stadium and will be cool as fuck when finished. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Should really go to a match but find it hard to get interested in League 2... Maybe get there in the next few months. I drive past it a lot as it's next to a huge Asda and Ikea and you can see it from quite a few roads. Looks pretty good on the outside but not very weather proof... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 PS Don't think they'll finish it till they are getting bigger crowds but that won't happen much unless they get to the championship. Supposed to hold 30k when complete. They might start releasing some money for the team now... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 They are doing not bad at the moment, Paul Ince is in charge there aswell. They have potential to get crowds in that area. I bet the standard wouldnt be far behind SPL clubs like St Mirren 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Getting crowds will be long term project by aiming at the kids. Most locals around here already support the likes of Arsenal and Spurs as well as the usual Man U fans. The rest support teams like Luton, Watford and Northampton. However, the flash stadium helps attract the kids and if they start getting doing well and winning a lot, I'm sure a bandwagon will form for people to jump onto. I'm not so fond of them since they bought up a municipal park and then got the police to kick a bunch of us off it. We'd been playing there fortnightly for years. We've found somewhere else now though that suits us, via a couple of other places. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
