I know there's already an MK thread, but it was getting a bit long. A couple of questions: I'm getting the train so I can have a few and will be getting there at 12.40, so.. Is it Milton Keynes Central station I need to get to? Would it be best to get my ticket before going to the pub? Are we definately going to the pub that Tom pointed out on his map? Will anyone else be there that early? Who else is deffo going to be there? Am I gay? Thanks, Stoney

where is a car park too, i may drive up Park up nearer the pub (25p an hour in the non-red zones), or if you can get up Silbury Boulevard and park round the back of the police station and courts - it's free there. You could also go over to the megabowl area next to Argos - again 25p an hour. Stoney, I reckon you should try to get a ticket first, there seems to be a fair few going. MK Central is indeed the right stop for you, the ground is just on the left out of the station. I reckon the pub I said - it's the biggest in MK, and also the closest to the ground - being a Spoons it's cheap too. See you there.

Spot on - I'm not sure about where they use as a car park as I've never been into MK on a match day really - it appears the use the Abbey National car park from your picture there.
Top left corner is where I used to work too.

yeah we parked in front of abbey national HQ last time. loads of spaces around there & near train station. it was a bank holiday though so not sure what it'll be like on a saturday? their official website says: Within a 10 minute walk of the stadium there are over 2,000 pay-and-display spaces. The car parks are to your left as you approach the ground from the North Grafton Roundabout. The Centre:MK shopping centre also has plenty of spaces, and is around a 15 minute walk from the stadium. There is also a multi-storey adjacent to the train station. danny wilson is getting scared of us http://www.Franchise.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10420~721159,00.htmldont know why but i'm really looking forward to this game COME ON YOU REDS!
