MK Dons (19 Dec)

[longdistancebee]

There was a lot of footage of the ground on the local news this evening. They've got the covers on.

What? Are we playing cricket..... ;-)

 

[Milton Keynes Bee]

Heavy snow fall overnight up here. Temperature -1C. Pitch covered.

More snow predicted. Anybody's guess as to whether the game is on.

 

[NorthamptonBee]

Loads of it up here.
I would hope that with being so close to MK that it is a good sign. It's no longer below freezing so hopefully the pitch is nice and warm under those covers and ready for tomorrow.

 

[TW3Bee]

I'm surprised that they didn't have undersoil heating put in.

If it is not on I am still up for travelling and going on the beer :beer: don't waste passouts

As posted on the prediction thread, MK Dons expecting the game to go ahead.

 

[Westlad]

Hopefully if the game doesn't go ahead the trains won't either so we can get a refund!

 

[Westlad]

Got one spare ticket part of the southern groupsave deal - £5 for unlimited day travel on Southern. Planning on getting the 10:38 train from Clapham Junction. Please PM if interested.

According to their web site, they do have under soil heating and the covers are on, they see no problem with the game going ahead

Is it off yet?

Can anyone please tell me how far the ground is from Milton Keynes Central Train station. To walk from train station to ground please. How long ? Cheers ears.

 

[ianhl]

It`s about 30 mins walk I think

Go to Bletchley, it's a shorter walk I've read somewhere

 

[Old NL Bee]

The walk from Central Milton Keynes station will take around 45-50 minutes (it's around 3 1/2 miles away). Bletchley Station is around 1 mile, if that, away.

By Train
The two stations nearest to the stadium are Bletchley and Milton Keynes Central. Bletchley is approximately a 25-minute walk from the stadium site and Milton Keynes Central is a 30-40 minute walk. Both routes are along Milton Keynes Redways

Where's the best place to park today?
Ta.

 

[Old NL Bee]

You can park at the ground but expect to pay £5 and a bit of a wait to exit.

There is an industrial estate opposite (across the dual carriageway) which has street parking and some companies offer parking for around £2. There is an Asda and Ikea but I think that they only allow parking for 3 hours so that would be tight...
