Apart from the fact that it is not complete yet and the lack of bums on seats, what a fantastic place.

Falmer is getting padded seats as well

When thats all completed I can see that being an abseloutely cracking stadium, just needs a decent set of supporters filling it, which is why I have very high hopes for Falmer, I think our fans are well capable of turning Falmer into a kind of fortress where teams are almost scared 
to come.
to come.
I agree, lovely ground, thought the open concourses were fantastic... we aren't having them are we?
Love the fact the seats were both padded and had some kind of 'suspension' on them so if you landed with a thump you didn't break your tailbone.

I though it was like Milton Keynes itself: well built, comfortable but characterless and grey.
Facilities-wise it was great, location and access also great but the stadium won't compare to Falmer when built. Our is beautiful, theirs just seemed like a superb shell for something that's yet to be fulfilled.

thought it was a little shit to be honest. i think that once finished the noise inside will be better/louder but other than that completely characterless. i couldn't care less whether my seat was padded and thought there was far too much space between each one. we took a good number today but even our atmosphere was poor, although the football didn't help.
god how i want to go back to terracing.

The whole of Milton Keynes is grey and dull. Yes it may have all the facilities in the world, and it may have a good road structure, but it has no soul or character.

The stadium itself is ugly and boring, - not a patch on what Falmer will look like.
Inside - the design is good but so much black gives it a depressing feel. The walls in the Ladies were all black and the lighting was so poor it was like being in a dungeon. I liked the idea of padded seats but was disappointed that they were not comfortable. Standing was the better option!
As for the MK Dons crowd - dead, except for the last ten minutes. However, as Spurs were at home, I suspect quite a few were there, judging by the lack of people wearing Spurs shirts - unlike last time I visited!
All in all, not a great place to be and don't mention the stewards....!

Horrid ground.

We actually commented that it was a shame they didn't have their own song and had to resort to singing that White Stripes riff that you hear in every European stadium and as a sound effect on football computer games

They have also "nicked" Millwall's "no-one likes us" song. Too right- Franchise Dons!
