Re: The Goat's latest offering, if we end up legitimising the MK Dons franchise scum by sharing a ground with them, then my support for Spurs will be put on hold until that arrangement has come to an end. Morally indefensible for me (I know not everyone will feel this way), and I will want nothing to do with Tottenham Hotspur whilst any such arrangement is in place. Neg away.

It is 30,000 seaterAgreed, it is a bit of a puzzle, but would it mean that the stadium gets build even quicker?

Our season was meaningless after Christmas, and Dawson was still pedestrian.
Go figure.

I think you will find there will be a significant minority (and I accept it will likely be a minority) who do agree. MK Dons are a symbol of everything that is wrong with football, and a 'proper' football club (such as my beloved Spurs) should want as little to do with them as humanly possible IMO.

will be 31-32000 when we're there

Do you need me to spell out the difference between 'agree' and 'like'?
Nothing wrong with having strong principles. I would never stop supporting Spurs, but I can certainly understand why someone might want to suspend their support whilst we're fraternising with a disgraceful 'football club'.

So if playing at Stadium MK for a season or two was the only possibility in order to get the stadium built, you'd still be against it.
You're essentially saying you'd prefer us not building a stadium than playing at Stadium MK.

Fair enough. I wasn't sure, hence it was a question

I guess 15-16 as well would just be a way of hurrying things along.
Blimey - this might be our last season at WHL!

For anyone who has been to MK Dons' stadium you will all share the opinion that it is a complete shithole.

If it came to it, then Yes. But that's a silly hypothetical question that doesn't reflect the real world: I might as well ask you whether you'd give Sol Campbell a beej every day for 2 years if it meant we could get the stadium built (my bet: you wouldn't) - it's not something that reflects all the other available options in the universe. There are 90 other clubs in the Football League who aren't MK Dons or Spurs who I would prefer Spurs to share a ground with: I'd sooner see us play at the KC Stadium in Hull (or even, God forbid, at the Emirates) than I would at the Stadium MK.

WHL isn't one of the nicest stadiums I've been to either... (well...that's probably one of the reasons we're building a new one anyway
)- Status
