Darlington play Bamber Bridge tomorrow in the EvoStik Division 1 North Play Off Final, at Heritage Park, KO 3pm.

An important reminder that this game is all ticket for all supporters. Darlington supporters must enter the ground through the turnstiles closest to the main car park, clearly labelled Darlington Supporters Only.

League representatives will be attending the game to make the presentation to the winning team on the balcony in the main stand, and in order to prepare for the presentation the bar will be closed to all supporters at the end of half time to make the necessary arrangements. A PA announcement will inform supporters when the bar will reopen after the presentations have been made.

Due to a flare being ignited and incidents of supporters bringing canned alcohol into the ground at last Wednesday’s semi-final match, the Police have insisted that supporters will be searched as they enter the ground.

It is important to remember that DFC is proud of its community and family based support and cannot, and will not, tolerate inappropriate behaviour or crowd disturbance of any kind. The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the conduct of the Club’s supporters at all our football matches and, with your help, we will do everything possible to eradicate the very small minority, of either individuals or small groups, who purport to represent the Club in a manner that may result in the imposition of severe sanctions on the Club.

The Club works closely with the Police and other authorities to investigate any reported incident of crowd disturbance and identify perpetrators, and it will take the most severe sanction available to it. Without exception, all information the Club receives is passed on to the Police in the strictest of confidence.

So let’s all get behind the team in the proper way and make this a truly memorable end to the season, for all the right reasons.
