I’m sure I’ve read in the past about Donny Dog being in the club shop for a certain time before kick off?, is this still a thing does anyone know?

That’s all really, really brilliant however, with a 12.30 kick off it’s a big ask for dads who face a 70 mile 2 hour journey to get to the ground.

Hopefully (start of next season with the sun still shining) this can be repeated for a later 15.00 kick off?

Not being negative here, just pointing out there are many ‘non Doncastrian’s’ who still support the club they followed when still living in Donny & ‘naturally’ made the move once they’d finished their education.

Yes it is.
Booked my young un for it.
Got a photo, gift bag, went onto the pitch to high five the players when they came out for warm up and got to take penalties on the pitch before and at half time. All for free so really good

Excellent offering from the club and all those who work hard to offer much more than just 90 minutes on Saturday. A club to be proud of!
