MK Dons Away (6 Viewers)

[Ashdown1]

Brilliant ! That looks fantastic now, it'll be worth going just to see it open with that new tier. Really hope its open and MK, can pull a few thousand extra in and make a good day of it.

Anybody know the record for away league followings? Take 8k plus and we gotta be close

The 6k we took to Old Trafford is the largest that ground has seen. There's a nice bit of history for you. I went there for the Olympics last year and they've got a nice little commemorative display (well it's part of one anyway)

Didn't Derby beat our away attendance at Old Trafford? May even have been the same season

 

[Ashdown1]

6k ? Which game was that?

Rangers about 40k at Queens Park last season - somehow not many stadiums of that size!!

It was 11k in 2007.

It's a shame that we can find 11,000 fans to get to Manchester on a weeknight for a meaningless cup game, but couldn't get that many down the Ricoh last season. Was a great day though.

Can't wait for this one, will be the biggest League away game I've been to by far (not been to many to be fair).

 

[play_in_skyblue_stripes]

Taking 11k was mostly due to missing being in the big time. It was briefly a chance to feel we were back where we belong.

Without wanting to nit pick, 11k was the average last season at the Ricoh.

Amazing what finishing a ground can do to the perception of the stadium . Hopefully 9-10K Dons fans, 6K Coventry. That would be very decent.

With away fans (well if you're going to nit pick )

Anyone have details to contact the football league show? They may do a special piece on the travelling support.

Happy days wasn't going to MK as it's the wife's birthday but with a great deal of creeping have managed to get a just go if you want....

Down side will have to drive as we are going out on Saturday night.

Was a good day out last year 40 of us from the club went down on the train and took over the first of many pubs.

And they've sold 2 blocks plus a load of, as yet unallocated seats, directly from MK Dons.

MK ticket office told me they were holding them all for a few days, then allocating seats as they may need to be in the upper tier. That was yesterday.

 

[SkyBlueJord]

CET claiming 4200 already sold.

[Sky Blue Pete]

Might be first game of the season

No. The first allocation was 2.5k, then we had 900 more (3.4k) then this 1000 (4.4k) the question is does that includes ones sold by MK direct?

The WMP figure could easily be CCFC only as they probably have links there and not MK and don't really get into the politics too much to worry about NOPMers.
