unusual facts about Milton Keynes Dons F.C.



Ade Mafe

He is currently unemployed and has previously worked for Chelsea, Millwall, Milton Keynes Dons, West Bromwich Albion and Watford.

Antony Sweeney

He received his first red card against Milton Keynes Dons after a tussle with Izale McLeod but he more than made up for it when he scored his first hattrick against Chesterfield in his next appearance.

Bletchley

Perhaps its most famous residents are Milton Keynes Dons F.C., in Denbigh North, and their former club sponsors Marshall Amplification, just across the old Watling Street in Denbigh West.

Broadwood Stadium

A much more high profile relocation of this kind took place in England in 2003, when Wimbledon F.C. relocated to Milton Keynes (some 70 miles from their historic South London home) in search of a location that would attract more support, and the following year were rebranded as Milton Keynes Dons.

Grant Brown

When John Schofield and John Deehan were sacked by Lincoln City on 15 October 2007 following a disappointing start to the 2007–08 season culminating in a 4–0 defeat away to Paul Ince's league leaders, Milton Keynes Dons, Brown was appointed caretaker manager until the appointment of Peter Jackson.

Riccardo Scimeca

The start of the 2008–09 season looked to be more promising for Scimeca as he began the season fully fit and an injury to Gavin Rae saw him back into the first team early in the year, but he went on to suffer another injury setback after seriously damaging ankle ligaments during a 2–1 victory over Milton Keynes Dons in the second round of the Football League Cup.
