Dons assistant manager Ray Mathias says adding more silverware to the stadiummk trophy cabinet will be all the inspiration the players need going into the final two games of the season.
With promotion to League 1 already secure, the Dons head to Bradford City on Saturday knowing a win would see them crowned League 2 champions at Valley Parade.
And Paul Ince's number two reckons the chance to put the League 2 title alongside the Johnstone's Paint Trophy will prevent any of the players letting up.
He said: "We'll have the same motivation as we have done all season. If you'd seen the lads in training this week you'd know that.
"We'll give everything we've got until the very end and hopefully, come five o'clock on Saturday, we'll have done the job we set out to do and come away with another trophy.

"We've got one trophy in the cabinet at the moment but it's looking a bit lonely so hopefully we can get the other one to keep it company!"
Having been relegated from League 1 last season, Bradford were among many people's favourites bounce straight back up this term.
But Stuart McCall's men have struggled to find the consistency to mount a serious promotion challenge and have spent most of the season in mid-table.
McCall has, however, guided his team to three wins from their last four home games and Mathias knows they will be a tough nut to crack on their own patch.
He said: "Coming down from last season, you expect them to have the players from that level but I'm sure it can be a shock to some players when they come down to this level.
"You can come down and think life is going to be easy in this league and if you don't sort that problem out straight away you could find yourself mid-table.
"But I know Stuart McCall, he works really hard on his team building and I can assure you on Saturday we'll be in for a hard game.
"No doubt there will be around 15,000 at Bradford, their attendances have been enormous this season, but if our fans get behind us hopefully we'll be able to repay them.
"Last Saturday at Stockport the supporters were outstanding and if they can give us that support at Bradford we'll have a great chance."
