Groundhopper was looking forward to this trip as Accrington are the current holders of The Donny and Mooie Trophy. Was it going to be another excellent revue?

Category | Score | Comments |
First Impressions of the stadium, parking, ease of entry. | 7 | Compact ground in a housing estate, the coach had to do a three point turn in quite a tight space but was parked right by our turnstile. |
Food & Drink, range, quality, price. | 8 | Coley’s. Its to die for. I covert my oppononents facilities. Good range of beers, excellent pricing and service with a smile. Food was only served from behind the stand, good quality pies at a great price. |
View from your seat, any poles in the way, obstructed view, seat broken? | 7 | Sat on the halfway line decent view, seat a little tight as was legroom. No obstructions, not allowed behind the goal this time. |
Home team support, was it a library, good banter between the fans? | 8 | Stanley Ultras made some noise, not a great deal of banter exchanged less than 2000 in the crowd. |
What were the stewards like, helpful and friendly or jobsworths? | 7 | Decent set of stewards coming in and by the concessions, a gaggle of them definitely had that metal barrier fully secured. |
Toilet facilities, clean and well equipped with hot water, disgusting. | 7 | Yes, nice and clean handdryers worked |
Ticket pricing, did the price reflect the facilities of the ground? | 8 | Facilities were good, clean and tidy. Good shout at the price. Nice place to visit for league football. |
Ground facilities, half time service, did they let fans outside at halftime? | 8 | Service was good and efficient. Fans didnt need to be let out a smoking area was in part of the large area designated for away fans. |
Match atmosphere, did the Dons fans give good support? | 7 | The Dons were boosted by a new head coach’s first game, the fans fully back the team and they saw the first go at restoring MK Way |
Ease of exit, did the carpark clear quickly, traffic around the stadium? | 8 | Coach right by the exit we got out quick with under 2000 at the game. Good journey home. |
