Ken Aries 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Winkelworld is the name the Mk Dons fans have given their new 30,000 seater stadium after Chairman Peter Winkelman. It''s most impressive too, especially for such a small club. It begs the questions: how on earth can they afford it? And how on earth will they fill all those seats in the 4th division? It could be ambition without prudence I suppose - they must be planning for a future in the Premiership. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Harvey-Jones 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Lol. I remember the cup game last season when one of the stands at MK was totally empty and that was at a 4500 seater stadium when MK Dons were a league higher! It''s going to look very very empty!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Aries 0 Posted June 8, 2006 You can only envy the sort of financial backing they must be receiving though, can''t you? Somebody must be planning for a future in the Premiership, no matter how outlandishly optimistic that may seem at the moment. Do they have a consortium funding this new stadium? Or is there some sort of grant from the local council or whatever? These stadiums don''t come cheap. While no end of small tinpot clubs have these new facilities built for them, we at Carrow Road have to make do with at least 5,000 seats too few. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
