Quick Facts season, Chairman ...

The season covers the period from 1 July 2022 to 30 June 2023.

Managerial changes

On 11 December 2022, head coach Liam Manning was sacked by the club, with club captain Dean Lewington taking over as interim manager whilst a permanent replacement was sought.[2] Goalkeeper David Martin became acting assistant manager alongside, with Bradley Johnson also taking charge of the team for their EFL Cup fixture on 20 December while Lewington underwent hamstring surgery.[5]

On 23 December 2022, it was announced that Mark Jackson had been appointed as the club's new head coach,[3] however after five months in charge Jackson was sacked following the club's relegation to League Two having registered just six wins in 25 games.[4]

Pre-season friendlies

On 3 June, MK Dons announced their first two pre-season friendlies, against AFC Rushden & Diamonds and King's Lynn Town.[6] A third, against Barnet was also confirmed.[7]

All four of the club's pre-season friendlies took place away from Stadium MK due to the stadium being a host venue for UEFA Women's Euro 2022.[6]
