Still patting myself on the back for being an excited little bar steward on Friday morning and making it rain on pay day by picking up three tickets.

K-Hod, you've played a blinder there.....

English is my native tongue but I had to reread that a few times to cop what you meant. Honestly! Thought at first you got a load of tips from your bar work and bought yerself some tickets. Oh well. Maybe I need to log off for a while.

Bar Steward = Steve Kean

Tickets sorted.

3rd away game of the season. Let's hope it's more Bury than Oldham !!

For all the dross we have had to endure the past years, I can honestly say I havent been this excited for a game in a long long time. #1moresleep

Haha, yeah, bar steward = bastard.

That’s two people questioning my lingo in the last few days, maybe I’m the problem, haha.

This is great news and should spur the lads on for the win.

Party time tomorrow night I hope

Although I am baffled the club didn't go through with its cynical ploy to sell more tickets for beamback ?

Who've you been seeing !

[barry_]

is no one concerned that they beat us at Ewood?

I'm going to the game and want it to be special (for so many reasons)

Just seems that everyone is forgetting we're playing a team that has already bettered us.

Since that game we've lost 3 times in 41 league matches; they played us at just the right time when the players clearly underestimated what was expected of them to get out of this division (the right way).

Although it might be a touch anticlimactic if we don't do it with our own result. We really owe Doncaster a drubbing after what they did to us at Ewood.

We were a very different animal then.  

Our league positions show we are the better side

Just spoke to the ticket office, just over 100 tickets left.

Are we going to ask for more tickets if they sell out?

I didn't ask but personally don't think they'll get any more than that. In the past there has been another 400 or so in the side stands but I think they'll want to deter people travelling without tickets.

The Doncaster Rovers website says away tickets can only be purchased through BRFC, in effect, up to close of business today. No cash turnstiles tomorrow night. This was updated one hour ago.

This is at odds with that that was said by their liaison officer yesterday, ie away tickets could be bought on the night of the game from an office next to the away end.

With the extra allocation having been made so late in the day, I think our numbers will be what they are now.

If in doubt, ring Doncaster prior to travelling.

 Think it may have been a pay on the gate situation until they gave us those final few tickets today. Really can't see them giving more than the 3700 allocated.

Yep I'm concerned we may not win but likewise I think posh will get something at shrews. I'll be checking phone for updates whilst watching rovers game

Posh are still just about a long long-shot for the play-offs so Tuesday really is their last chance. It's win or bust for Evans and his boys.
