    Just seen that Ipswich had over 6,000 at MK yesterday & then realised that our last away game of the season is at MK Dons.

    Can you imagine if automatic promotion is possible? What a day out that will be. I wonder what the maximum away crowd they can have is? They might be more Reds there than there’s been at some home games this season!

    Just seen that Coventry took 8,000 in January 2018!

    If it comes down to that MK hotels will do a great trade from people staying the night after the game for a big one.

    Would be good if there was something riding on it. Remember taking 5k to Wigan when we had to win to get in the play offs.

    Stadium holds 30500. Think there will be plenty of tickets to go around. If something is riding on the game I'd expect us to have 10k+ there. It's not exactly difficult to get to.

    Because it’s all filled in by the corners I imagine we will get as many as the market can stand. Initial 5,000 or so then keep adding as the demand spreads outwards either side. There’ll be very few home supporters

    By road it's easy by train not so.

    Ipswich and Wednesday both took nearly 7k this season and weren't given any more despite there being demand for it (obviously Wednesday had at least 100,000 on the reserve list). Can't see why we wouldn't get the same.

    Decent prices on hotels in MK for the Saturday night at the moment - Get it booked!

    Hopefully not a scenario we'll find ourselves in

    I hate Milton Keynes and everything about them and have always said I won't give them any money (I.e. wouldn't go as a Barnsley fan) but I do fully appreciate in the aforementioned scenario, the support for Barnsley should come before my hatred of Milton Keynes
