As the club's main sponsor for the next two seasons, Virgin Trains have kindly provided a 20% off promotion code for travel on Virgin Trains from Newcastle, Darlington and Durham for fans who attend Tuesday’s game at the Northern Echo Arena against a Sunderland XI.

At the turnstile you will receive a card with a code that can only be used once when booking your travel online on Virgin Trains.

Director John Tempest said; “This is a fantastic gesture by Virgin Trains, which is a foretaste of the launch of the Virgin Travel Club when the season proper starts on 6^th August.

“This is a great offer. For example, a 20 per cent discount on travel to London represents a great amount of money, probably more than Saturday's admission price.  The club would like as many Darlington fans as possible to come along on Tuesday, not only to support the club in the game against the Black Cats, but also our generous main sponsors.”

Admission for the friendly against Sunderland is £10 for adults and £6 for children -- and you receive a voucher for 20 per cent discount on Virgin Rail Travel in return!!

We understand that some people might not have received vouchers on Saturday, the vouchers will again be handed out at the turnstiles tonight.
