The demise of Milton Keynes City FC had nothing at all to do with Wimbledon moving to Milton Keynes, they were a works team originally (Mercedes Benz) and then became MK City, then decided to fold. So did Doncaster climb the leagues? Or were they elected into the football league? All those years...
Kind of a strange feeling tbh after 20 years of Pete. Whilst he's not loved outside of MK, he has done an amazing job at the club. Let's now hope that the new Owner takes us forward. The early soundbites seem positive.

We've got a few key playersw coming back now, which could be perfect timing, Max Dean in particular, it's our away form however which is likely to keep us in the playoff spots.
Important result for us, and a good performance too. Nice to hear Mansfields commentary team praising us at the end of the match.

To be fair, it's the way he went about it. Told the club and fanbase he hadn't been approached, hadn't spoken to them etc, etc, wasn't going anywhere and had turned them down twice. Turns out he'd been down to them on the Wednesday.
I get going to a bigger club, it's the way of the world, but...
