With the dust beginning to settle on the season, the MK Dons players have been reflecting on the last year and the successes they have achieved.
With Dons finishing second in the League Two standings, just a point behind title winners Bromley, there has been plenty to celebrate and the players have been taking to social media to conclude the campaign.
Liam Kelly was not short of accolades this season, picking up Player of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year at the End of Season Awards, while also being named in the EFL League Two Team of the Season.
Posting a series of pictures, he wrote: “A season of memories with a group of incredible humans. Personal accolades to be proud of along the way! 25/26 it’s been a season of a lifetime.”
Defender Jack Sanders also enjoyed a brilliant season in the back line, fast becoming a fan-favourite at Stadium MK.
He wrote: “A memorable season with an amazing group of people. Thanks for all the continued support. Now time to rest up and see you in League One!”
Goalkeeper Connal Trueman made seven appearances for the side this season, including the dramatic 2-2 draw with Barnet at The Hive in November.
He said: “Mission Accomplished. An absolute pleasure to be part of this group. Some incredible human beings, both on and off the pitch.”
There were also short messages from Marvin Ekpiteta, who wrote: “We are going up!” with a series of pictures, with fellow centre-back partner Curtis Nelson, who signed in January from Derby County, adding: “Promotion secured.”
Midfielder Connor Lemonheigh-Evans also said: “Season done. Job done. Time to give the golf some rest.” with fellow Welshman Aaron Collins leading the karaoke with: “The Dons are going up, ole ole!”
