Support the Dons - Support the MKDSA

How much does it cost?  Well, we are able to offer an annual membership at just £5 for adults, £4 for the over 60's and £2 for under 16's.   And we have tried to make the process as easy as possible by introducing an on-line application and membership system which you can access on THIS LINK.

MK Dons Supporters Association - Fans survey

In recent months the Supporters Association has been working hard to update its website and to recruit more members.  The work of any association is reliant on the input, views and opinions of its members and the MKDSA is no different.  We would therefore ask all fans of MK Dons to complete a quick survey on matters such as the website, events and member benefits.  

The object of asking for your name and email address in the survey is two fold.  For current members it's to ensure that we can have your magazine "Chewing the Cud" ready to collect at the most convenient MKDSA info point to yourselves and to check your email address on our records is up to date. For non members it's so that we can answer any queries that you have raised in the survey.

Many thanks in anticipation of your support.  Link to FAN SURVEY
