Not surprised MK Dons in a big fat zero.

That's got to be the safest ground I've ever been to.

Almost didn't need stewarding.
 
Yep, I'd say nearer 5,000 at most.

I think clubs always count non-attending season ticket holders, which inflates the crowd figure.

There were all pretty much at the opposite end to us and a few groups scattered in the other two stands. Wished I took a picture now.

How many does the MK Stadium hold? It does look a nice ground.

I remember when we played them at the Hockey Stadium and was surprised by the attendance. We took 2,000 if I remember but the attendance was announced as 7,000 odd (if my memory serves me correctly) but it really didn't look it at all.
 
Also, in truth a lot depends also on the pro-activity of Plod in the Policing.
I have seen (and heard), on a few, not so good occasions, persons, normally intoxicated young males, who ought to have been arrested before, during and after matches. Often for unpleasant nasty racist or homophobic loutish behavior & the Police just pretend to not see or hear; maybe in Newcastle they have better Officers?

Absolutely not.I remember a WPC there refusing to let me out of the ground, when the match ended, despite my explaining to her that I wasn't travelling with Southend's away supporters and had to get the last train back to my brother's place in Nottingham.

Known to every police force in the land!

No wonder you're on the run in Spain.
