That's not particularly helpful for fans, a bit of notice would be nice.

Sounds like it's not the Club(s) to blame on this:
"The two clubs had agreed to stage the game at a future date but EFL scheduling ensured it must be played on February 3."

[Fal]

Looking at the statement it said that both teams agreed a later date but due to EFL scheduling had to play it next week.

[NigelJ]

So the EFL are making us play three away games in a week, with only 8 days notice. And this meant to be fair?

[Barmby Rover]

It doesn't matter, it's only Donny and Burton, these little clubs can go to hell.

[LincsRover]

Another rearranged Tuesday night game I can’t make due to work commitments! Brilliant! 

[Draytonian III]

When will tickets go on sale and will they be e-tickets ?

[donnyguy]

All rovers saying at moment “ticket information will be released in due course”

[drfchound]

Are there any other days besides a Tuesday that we could fit the game in.
I think all the Saturdays up to the end of the season already have a fixture  apart from 14h February.

Burton are still in fa cup on 14th Feb but
10th,24th and 31st March all free so god know why the fa have made us cram it in this early at such late notice

I know that Burton are still in the FACup, but they already have a fixture on 17th March.
Maybe the authorities are thinking that a win for Burton on 14th February would mean a further postponement of another Saturday game which would rule out one of the other two dates you mentioned.
There is probably a time limit for them to announce when rescheduled games will take place.
I know that the NPL have to reschedule within 35 days of the postponement.

 Not many tickets available but at least it’s a decent price

[Scooter]

I am going to book my tickets in the morning but I notice they have to be collected. Anyone know if the club shop/ticket office is open on Sunday?

[Draytonian III]

The EFL sanctioned it, Rovers wanted to play later in the season

[Padge_DRFC]

£15 bargain

[keyser_soze]

This is a pisser, local to me and been looking forward to this one since we got back in the same league. Only 800 tickets?

We're not gonna sell 800 at this short notice for a Tues night game surely.
