Donny are a more obvious pick which influences the markets, but I wouldn't touch them for promotion at 9/2 with a bargepole. [Bet Victor]

We are now 5/2 with Bet Victor for promotion

Hi Philsky,


I'am in Chesham and it will take me 50mins to get there, free tickets as well. We are getting there early and having a meal before the big big game.

I do the coaching of the junior section at my local golf club.

Just last night I was spreading the word of Donny Rovers, as I do often, and low and behold one of the juniors grandmother said

                     "I am from Donny and I support the rovers"

                          We are taking over the Universe.

Careful posting stuff like that on here Alick.
You might be categorised as a golf club bore.

Even I find myself boring.

One of my mates I play golf with was born in the Intake and now works for Wycombe FC. Another source of free tickets. Thats 3 Donny supporters in our golf club.

Philsky.

 I get on the M1 at jct 8 Hemel.

 Many years ago I met a journalist at a party in Tring and we talked about hiring a mini bus and go to watch Donny games ,are you that person? Probably not!

It would be Phil. It would! September 1st is the currently planned date to collect the thing. That's because  the road tax is over 50 quid a month so paying a months' money for a week ain't that clever...

Mansfield home sounds feasible.

Could even contemplate a swift half maybe !
