Milton Keynes Irish Football Club is a football club based in Fenny Stratford, a constituent town of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. They are currently members of the Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division and play at the Irish Centre, Manor Fields.

History[edit]

The club was established in May 2020 by a merger of Milton Keynes Robins, Unite MK and Milton Keynes Irish Veterans,[2] taking the place of Milton Keynes Robins in Division One of the Spartan South Midlands League.

Following the abandonment of the 2020–21 season, the club were promoted to the Premier Division based on Milton Keynes Robins' results in the 2019–20 season (which was also abandoned), and the results of Milton Keynes Irish in their inaugural campaign.

At the end of the 2021–22 season they were transferred to the Premier Division South of the United Counties League. However, the club were transferred back to the Premier Division of the Spartan South Midlands League a year later.[3]
