McEachran is getting back into the groove of it

Midfielder Josh McEachran is a bit of an unsung hero in Dons’ midfield, playing in that pivotal position just in front of the back-three.

After missing pre-season after a bout of Covid, McEachran now feels he is back up to speed and is getting better with each game

Dons are out to win again

It might be a competition overlooked by the fans (until the arch over Wembley looms) but the Papa John’s Trophy is a competition Dons are taking seriously this season.

Chris Hogg, assistant head coach at Stadium MK said Dons will be putting out a strong side this evening to get on top of their League Two opponents

Every day and every game is an opportunity to go and stamp your mark on your position. Liam has been clear on earning the right to play. If you’re playing well, you’ll keep your spot and if not, there are boys there willing to step in.
One thing for sure is we’ll put a team out we think can win and progress in the competition. It’s one game at a time at the moment.
