Steve Stride etc, I assume.
Because MK Dons shouldn't be allowed to exist.
We're part of the reason they do.
I don’t really have a dog in the fight, but wasn’t the gist of that article (not saying it’s true) that they didn’t test that info out?

Yes, commissions normally delve into the detail a bit and look into the source info. Still, it's history now and there are two clubs now where there might have been none, and the town I grew up in has a nice stadium and a league 1 team.
Why didn't Milton Keynes have a club previously? A place that size, a bit odd.

Because it didn't really exist before the second world war.
I didn't go to MK Dons last season on principle they should not exist . But turning to Barry he has a lot to improve on if he thinks he can break into our first team squad. When it is in the balance as to whether Archer goes on another loan you can possibly understand where I am coming from.

Because it grew exponentially from the 70s onwards. Designed as a London overspill, it was based on 5 or 6 existing small towns and a few villages, and they basically filled it in with housing estates. There was talk in the mid 80s of Luton Town moving there, and before Milton Keynes there was talk of Wimbledon moving to Dublin. There was a short lived non league club called Milton Keynes City which Ron Noades bought into.
When I was at school there for the 80s, apart from the usual Liverpool fans, everybody supported a London club.
Great move for Louie. I recall a time a while back when he seemned to be kicking up a bit of a fuss die to lack of opportunity (posts from his mates on social media etc) but I like the fact that he seems to be really knuckling down now. It's fine that it's taking time for him to fill out and develop his game, players eveolve at different rates. But for a lad who was once a 'wonderkid' with seemingly a bit of a petulant attitude, he looks to be doing fine now. It will be interesting to watch him develop.
Was there petulance? Understandable as a young kid having gone to La Masia to come back and give it the big'un but I don't remember hearing about it.
