Today the Football Association announced that visitors to England for the 2018 World Cup – should the current bid prove successful – will be given the chance to visit not just Old Trafford and Wembley, but Stadium MK on the outskirts of Milton Keynes.

And for many football supporters its presence alongside traditional venues such as Birmingham's Villa Park and Hillsborough in Sheffield will also be laden with political significance.
