Milton Keynes Borough aren’t the first side from MK we’ve come up against – and not the first to meet an unhappy end either. Our one meeting was by virtue of the draw for the FA Cup Preliminary Round draw during the 1986-7 season. We won a five-goal thriller on the day; edging our guests out by the odd goal. It was actually the only time that Boro’ played in the FA Cup. The season before, they’d lost 2-1 at Hednesford Town.
The club dropped off the radar in 1993 after finishing 12th in the South Midlands League Premier Division. Why? We’re not sure. But we do know that a Milton Keynes FC formed to take their place. And we think that one also met an unhappy end too.
