Went there a few years ago. Concrete everywhere but a nice stadium. No atmosphere though. I'm driving. Got any tips on where to park? Went in their carpark last season it cost £7, didn't have time to drive around looking elsewhere.

Oxford have called their game off. Not that far from MK That’s because there’s nothing behind the goal and now there’s 40ft of snow at the home end.

Looking highly unlikely this will be on then. Heavy snow predicted there for the rest of today followed by sub zero temperatures right up to the game. Would rather be getting points on the board than have a build-up of games in hand!

Read on the MK forum that they do have under soil heating so they reckon the pitch will be playable. Fingers crossed. How many gas will be braving the cold then?

In regards to Saturday's SkyBet League One fixture, the Club has received the following statement from MK Dons.
'The Football Club remains confident that Saturday’s Sky Bet League One fixture with Bristol Rovers will go ahead as planned, given the current state at Stadium MK and having monitored the weather forecast for the next 48 hours.
The pitch Stadium MK is currently playable, with the undersoil heating having been on since Tuesday – the pitch temperature is currently sitting at 5oc despite outside temperatures dropping below freezing.
Another factor that the Club has to take into consideration is the safety of supporters. The Club has a full gritting programme in place for the car parks and outer-walkways as well as the aisles and concourse inside Stadium MK.
Still, it goes without saying that supporters attending the game on Saturday are advised to wear appropriate footwear and clothing.
The Club will keep supporters informed via the website and social media, should there be any deterioration in the situation.' - MK Dons' statement on Saturday's fixture.
