    Wouldn’t you have been cheaper to either hire a minibus or get one with a driver? I assume quicker and door to door.

    2.7 miles, or a 1 hour walk according to Google Maps? I arrive quite early so I might do that on the way there if the weather is nice and try and get a bus on the way back.

    It is but the bus station is just over from the train station and you can catch a bus that goes past the ground so it's not that bad - equivalent to a Sutton or Bromley really.

    The return bus stop, Stadium MK (Stop B) is near to the south east corner of the ground and buses back to Milton Keynes Central Station leave at 17:02 (F70),17:13 (6), 17:32 (F77) and 17:30 (6). The F70 and F77 are a bit quicker, taking around 18 minutes, whilst the 6 will take around 27 minutes to get you back to the station.

    MK Dons wide pitch would be ideal for Jake Young to run on to balls and run at defenders.

    It's a real shame that we've seemingly decided to not play him in case an offer comes in.

    Imagine him scoring the winner at the a promotion competitor. What a statement that would be/have been.

    Oh well, I'm sure we can punt it in the general direction of Oliver and hope he gets within 5 metres of it.

    I've just looked on Trainline because I was thinking of taking the lad and the cheapest one was £196!

    Can do it for £150 and faster.
    Bradford to Man Victoria.
    Over to Piccadilly then West Coast main line only takes 1hr 45 to Milton Keynes.
    That price is for 2

    Still too much to watch us get beat 3-0.

    Cheers Vin. Will that be on Trainline or some other site? I usually drive so I'm a massive train newbie.

    Trainline.
    Bradford to Manchester Victoria 9:00 arrive at 10:00am
    Walk across to Piccadilly for the 10:35 train to London Euston.
    Gets to MK for 12:21.
    Return is either 17:29 or 18:29 depends on how fast you want to be.
    Price for adult and a child up to 15 years old.
    If you have a Railcard I'm guessing it will be a lot cheaper.
