Supporters were given their first chance to get up close and personal with the new MK Dons squad on Monday night at the Club's first ever Squad Presentation Evening.
As an introduction to the 2010/11 season, new manager Karl Robinson brought his entire squad of players and all first team staff to the Clydesdale Bank Ballroom at stadiummk, where over 200 fans were present to give them a fantastic welcome.
Players were issued with their first team shirts for the new campaign, complete with newly-installed squad numbers, before being given the chance to mingle with fans, talk about the season ahead and sign autographs for those in attendance.
With less than two weeks to go until the big npower League 1 kick-off at Walsall on Saturday 7th August, it was a great chance for the players to mix with the fans that will be the driving force behind them this season.
And with new faces such as Dietmar Hamann, David Martin, Angelo Balanta, Lewis Guy and Gary MacKenzie to become acquainted with, it was also a chance for supporters to familiarise themselves with Robinson's new additions.

"Our supporters have been brilliant this summer, travelling out in their hundreds to non-league grounds to watch us play and they've turned out in force again tonight," Robbo told mkdons.com.
"It's important that all our players and staff appreciate the support the fans give us, which is why we're all here sharing what has been a very nice evening with them.
"As players, management, staff and fans, we all need to be united to achieve something this season and, if the early signs are anything to go by, the coming months will be very exciting."
