BRIEF HISTORY of the MILTON KEYNES DONS FOOTBALL CLUB
(reproduced from 'Wikipedia' pages)
Milton Keynes Dons Football Club (usually abbreviated to MK Dons) is an English football club based
since 2007 at Stadium mk, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, about 56 miles (90 km) north of London. The
result of Wimbledon F.C.'s relocation to Milton Keynes from south London in September 2003, the club
officially considers itself to have been founded in 2004, when it adopted its present name, badge and
home colours. As of the 2015–16 season its first team plays in the Championship, the second tier of
English football.
Initially based at the National Hockey Stadium, the club competed as MK Dons from the start of the
2004–05 season. After two years in League One it was relegated to the fourth-tier League Two The club
then missed out on promotion in the play offs, before moving to the newly built Stadium MK for the
2007–08 season and won the League Two title under the management of Paul Ince. MK Dons also won the
Football League Trophy that year. The team remained in League One until the 2014–15 season when it
won promotion to the Championship under the management of Karl Robinson. MK Dons have built a strong
reputation for youth development—between 2004 and 2014 the club gave first team debuts to 14 local
academy graduates.
