    'Away fans can buy tickets on the day by gates 3 and 4. All fans are searched on entering the stadium and flags are not allowed in unless they come with their fire certificate! The Club operate automatic turnstiles, where you have to put your ticket (which has a bar code on it) into a slot reader and a green light will signify that one can enter. This should be done speedily as the revolving turnstile will then come up behind you and whack you on the backside, which has left some fans rather bemused. Programmes are bought outside the stadium.'

    In keeping with the infamous concrete cows of Milton Keynes, the Club have a mascot called Mooie, whilst the South Stand is called the 'cowshed'. No wonder that the locals have christened the stadium 'The MooCamp!'
    don't forget id for under 18's
    There are 2,000 car parking spaces at the stadium, which cost £7 per vehicle

    The stadium has a good-sized car park with about 2,000 spaces. Otherwise, visiting fans advise parking in the nearby Denbigh West industrial estate.

    Thought they're advising under 18's to take passports or other ID to prove age? Where's this getting checked if it's automated?
