I've been speaking to the club about a number of things, and one of them is the Rovers Lottery. Did you know that Norwich and Derby (as two examples) make over £20,000 a week from their £1 a go lottery, which goes a long way towards bringing in a couple of players of the calibre their fans want. Many of those who play their lotteries regularly arent even football fans, but play just for the thrill of the game (and maybe to win some prizes)! If the signing of Billy Sharp had proven anything, its that John and the board deserve our support even more than ever, and what better way than all joining the lottery scheme and encouraging friends and family to play too? Each one-pound ticket gets you a chance to win a cash prize, which currently stands at £500 a week. This can roll-over if no one has the number drawn. There are also 2 x £50 and 4 x £25 cash prizes each week, and over 20 sponsor prizes up for grabs. And here's the best bit for you dyed in the wool Rovers fanatics... anyone who becomes a lottery agent is entitled to 10% of the funds they bring in from the lottery players they sign up (payable as a lump sum on 6 months and 12 months), but also, if an agent gets more than 35 players signed up, they get their match tickets for free! In the West Stand, East Stand or South Stand - your choice. Category A, Category B - your choice. Thought you couldn't regularly get to see Billy, Stocky, Copps and this fantastic team we have? Think again! Why not put the feelers out at work, or amongst friends and family, to see how many people you know would like to join the lottery, and you could effectively have that Season Ticket for free.

Just a few lines to say many thanks to all our supporters who gave so generously to the Billy Sharp ‘Sharpshooter fund’. It was a pity we could nt generate a lot of ‘on the pitch’ presence for the presentation of our cheque on Saturday just before kick-off, but John Ryan had been asked to do several last minute interviews by SKY and by the BBC, and he was also playing ‘mine host’ to a lot of visitors... As a result we lost the chance to announce the presentation via the PA system – and we had to dash across to the East Stand to wait for a chance when John & Stuart Highfield were free – but they both wanted to take part in the presentation as they really appreciate our efforts and are very grateful for all that has been done by the Rovers Supporters club and the VSC. Thanks to Paul Mayfield & Rob Clark who presented the cheque – no doubt you will see their pretty faces in the programme and on the VSC website very soon. They are available to do weddings & childrens parties too..... In the end we raised just short of £3000 – a very credible effort – its a pity Paypal take a lump in commission charges, but we rounded up the cheque to £3000. We had a lot of folk contributing to the cause, and we will do a lucky draw for all who contributed – we will get a signed shirt by Billy for the lucky winner. Steve Uttley is organising the shirt and we will let you know who wins later... Thanks again, Cheers Gareth |

Three Peaks Challenge For Team DRFC |

A TEAM of intrepid Doncaster Rovers fans are all set to go to great heights for charity. For a determined band of supporters and friends are preparing to scale Yorkshire's fearsome Three Peaks this summer - and what's more, they will be undertaking the challenge dressed in the famed red and white hoops. The gruelling challenge will see the rambling Rovers trek a blister-inducing 23.5 miles and climbing a total of 2,153 metres in just 12 hours by taking on Pen-Y-Ghent, Whernside and finishing with the unforgiving Inglebrough in the Yorkshire Pennines. And the team will be taking on the mammoth task in memory of team member Carl Harris' dad Ted who died in 2006 after a six month battle against stomach cancer.
The idea for the charity fund-raising trek came to fruition after fans began discussing the idea on social networking site Facebook - and quickly snowballed with a team of Rovers diehards signing up for the June 26 walk.
Making up the team along with Carl are fellow Rovers followers Darren Burke, Tracy Crowe, Phil Ellis, Mike Follows and Gary Long. The team will be setting out from Horton-in-Ribblesdale at 8am for the marathon hike - hoping to finish the Three Peaks in under 12 hours. And each team member will be proudly wearing their replica Rovers shirt en route - showing off their support for Yorkshire's number one club.
Said Carl: "During his illness both my dad and our family found getting help and advice very difficult and the only organisation that we found were there, were the Macmillan cancer support team. I have been searching for an event I could take part in and complete in memory of my dad and where I can raise some money to support this wonderful organisation and hopefully give another sufferer or family a chance to recieve support that I know helped our family through a tough time." A spokesman for Macmillan said: "The walk itself takes in some of the Yorkshire Dales’ finest scenery and will be a tremendous challenge for all who take part. We hope that walkers will collect sponsorship from friends, family and colleagues to help Macmillan improve the lives of people affected by cancer."
