    I'm driving as it works out cheaper. Anyone know if parking is good there?

    A lot of us are meeting at Wetherspoons on Midsummer Boulevard which is 5 mins from MK train station.

    If you get off at Bletchley though, a lot of QPR fans are using the Enigma Tavern in Princes Way.

    About 3 1/2 miles. It's easy to get a cab apparently.

    The Enigma is a lot nearer. About a mile from the ground.

    I hope you have a great day Tring, and everyone else who's going.
    About 8,000 of us apparently.

    Westherspoons in main city nowhere near ground, would have to be a taxi ride, enigma tavern is between ground and bletchley station as easy walk of about 10-15 minutes. Im afraid I live here!!

    Parking is free on mount farm industrial or granby industry these are either side of the road from the stadium and only a couple of minutes walk. However they've sold 17,000 tickets so I expect it'll be fairly busy and id get their early doors.

    It seems set to be their biggest ever crowd. A pity they didn't go to the old MK non-league club or else they may have risen up through the leagues and avoided the opportunity for the bastard child of Pete Winkleman to be born (another fantastic decision by the FA).

    There is parking at the ground. Only 2000 car capacity though, so get there early. £7 per car.

    Nearly 7,000 sold through QPR plus loads of Rangers in all other areas in the stadium, so I've been reliably told.

    Wow! I know we had 4k originally and then asked for another 750, but 7k!! I presume we must have asked for more after the extra 750 then mate?

    I thought it was a bit excessive Col, but a lot of fans who live in and around the northern home counties see it as an opportunity to take their kids, to what they deem as a relatively safe encounter.
    It's also easy to get tickets. Whether we do have 8k there is another matter. But I'm convinced it will be pretty near that. Amazing!

    I heard we had sold 5300 tickets offically but expect many more Rangers to go.
    Fantastic away support and they are not even a real football club.
