Darlington FC Supporters Group is offering a service to members to buy their tickets for the final game at home to New Mills (this is an all-ticket game) by bank transfer (BACS) and to collect them from outside Heritage Park before the game. To apply for tickets you FIRST need to make your payment AND THEN send an email to the Supporters Group's Membership Secretary NO LATER THAN 11AM ON WEDNESDAY 22ND APRIL.

Darlington Football Club has designated the home game against New Mills on Saturday 25 April 2015 as all-ticket. Full details of how you can purchase tickets via the football club is available by clicking on this link:

However, Darlington FC Supporters Group is offering a service to members to buy their tickets by bank transfer (BACS) and to collect them from outside Heritage Park before the game.

The tickets are priced £9 Adult, £6 Concession and £4 Child.

To order your tickets, first make a bank transfer to the following:

Account name: Darlington Football Club CIC
Account number: 30227860
Sort Code: 30-84-43

If you wish to take up this facility, email the membership secretary confirming the number and type of tickets that you have paid for, including the reference that you used during the transaction, as well as a contact telephone number. Please ensure that your email reaches the secretary by 11am Wednesday 22 April at the latest.

We will then have your tickets ready at Heritage Park at a collection point outside the turnstile block nearest the main car park from 1.30pm on Saturday 25 April 2015.

If you are a season ticket holder, you could still use this facility to buy additional tickets for your friends and family.

Yours sincerely,

Excellent, exactly the service that the supporters group should be offering and bridging a bothersome gap.

Echo above great to see this forward thinking. That's my ticket sorted!

That is great news for those in the Supporters Club. I fear that most of our supporters that don't live in Darlo will not be members. But still it's a step in the right direction.

Thanks for all the positive comments, much appreciated. We have well over 100 members in the Group who are living outside of Darlo, and some have already taken up the offer which is great news.

The issue you have with delaying the decision is say we won today and Tuesday you then have Wed/Thu/Fri for the exiles and others to get tickets with no paypal/CC/Debit Card option.

If we win on Tuesday and we go into the last game next Saturday with a possibly playoff, if not too costly we could have playoff tickets ready to be sold at the end of the match (obviosuly if results went right we would be wasting the printing money). Sadly I don't think this could happen as we would need to agree prices and allocation with Spenny in advance of us being confirmed as opponents.

Don't see any reason why not. its a virtual certainty. Planning has to start now given it'll be a sell out and crowd needs to be segregated.

al_quaker · Post by **al_quaker** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 8:29 pm

Yeah. Get planning now. Have them printed for Saturday's match. Might boost the crowd on Saturday if you can pick up a playoff ticket after Saturday's match. Send a batch to spennymoor to do the same. If we win the title, I'm sure nobody would care chipping in a few quid to cover the printing costs if need be!

Obviously if we don't win Tuesday it makes the logistics a bit simpler.

And yes, it has to be segregated. The potential for trouble is very high.

quakerste · Post by **quakerste** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 8:36 pm

I'm sure the allocation is around 25% which will mean Spennymoor would get around 500 with 1500 for ourselves.

Deduct the 500 season tickets and there will be around 1000 on general sale, there is going to be a clamber for tickets.

Of course this may not be necessary if we win our next two games and Osset Town get something next Saturday.

Darlo_Pete · Post by **Darlo_Pete** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 9:30 pm

I can't see the game being all ticket, there's no way we'll sell out now given what's happened today.

HarrytheQuaker · Post by **HarrytheQuaker** » Sun Apr 19, 2015 10:17 am

Id leave it how it is surely to change it at this late stage would mess up the plans the club have put in place..

With Salford now expected to win the league i can see the New Mills game attracting the usual 1000-1200 attendance, however id keep it an all ticket match, should it be that we finish 2nd then id put play off tickets on sale to fans who have a season ticket or a new mills ticket, any leftovers can then go to the ones who only turn up when theres a big game

Darlo_Pete · Post by **Darlo_Pete** » Sun Apr 19, 2015 12:27 pm

I wouldn't make it all ticket as the attendance could now below 1000, given the trouble some of our fans will have getting into Darlo to buy tickets. Plus some floating fans might not know it's all ticket and turn up on the day.

Are you for real? Below 1000. Give your head a shake man.

Robbie Painter · Post by **Robbie Painter** » Mon Apr 20, 2015 12:53 pm

Clearly now we should drop the requirement for it to be all ticket and avoid the extra hassle it creates for fans.

Whats the point? Even if we win tomorrow night there is no way we'll get close to capacity.

There are a good few people that live in the surrounding area and aren't in the Supporters Club and they may not be bothered coming all the way to Darlo for a ticket.

I expect we'll see what the result is tomorrow

The potential for a large crowd is still on. Last game of the season, with the small possibility of winning the title. But if the play off tickets are on sale then that will also bring people in.
