The Dons are going back to 50's for the final League game of the 2010 season.

We are holding a big celebration for our last home game against Workington on the 22nd August, on a Fifties theme to encompass our Heritage Project.

The commemorate the occasion, the Club has produced a one-off replica 1950's playing kit in which the the Dons will play and which will then be auctioned to the fans after the game.

Also;

Entry to the game will be 50p
50/50 Draw tickets will be 50p
In the Restaurant there will be various displays charting the Club's history
and

also as a one-off offer, on the day, 2011 season tickets will be available for £50 (Adults and Concessions)
Watch this space for more information - this promises to be a great day!!!

WHAT!!!!

That must be the best deal in RL!
Obviously the club must have cash in the bank to cover this. Ten out of ten for brave marketing, this needs to be pushed hard in the local press etc.

Well done to the club for this great offer for the last game,hopefully it will bring a few more through the gates to support the team.I think the season ticket offer for next season is certainly a bargain not to be missed.
Come on you DONS

This looks fantastic... well done to everyone at the club.

We really need to publicise this to get as many people down as possible.

I'm no expert but can it be facebooked or tweeted (or something)...

A great offer and would buy 2 straight away...

Good effort.

There's no I in team......but there is a me!

My view on the season tickets is...despite the great offer...is that they are too cheap.
If everyone at the Worky game gets one....we will be in serious financial difficulties come half way through next season.
That's why this season I have been paying at the gate.....so the club gets more money from me and it is spread out over the season to help pay the bills.
It really is too cheap and IMO a daft idea!
£50....it's peanuts!
I paid that only yesterday for the privilege of watching my grandson play 16 games for Scawthorpe Scorpions. Kids under 8 yrs amateur football. Yet we would charge just the same to watch grown men play quality semi-professional rugby?

We are supposed to be running a business not a charity.
This view won't be popular I know..but have seen this all before.

I suprisingly find myself agreeing some what with SO. I am also concerned that this may cause problems down the road. I applaud the club for being pro-active and for looking to get more support through the gates.

Yeah....so do I, if it did bring in new supporters and extra money.
But all that usual happens is that the only people who buy these are the same people that would have bought a season ticket anyway at full price...but get one at a snip....which means the club LOSES money.
