Darlington FC Supporters’ Group (DFCSG) has run coaches to away games for many years, ensuring that fans can travel together in comfort and support the team on the road. For over three decades, Glen has managed the buses and bookings, providing a smooth experience for all supporters.

To streamline the process, we are introducing an online-only booking system for away travel. Glen will continue to oversee operations on matchdays, ensuring everything runs smoothly at departure and on the journey.

How to Book Your Seat

From now on, all away travel bookings must be made online via YourClub.

Step 1: Register with YourClub

Everyone travelling must be registered with YourClub, either as a basic (free) member or as an Owner (DFCSG Member). If you’re not already signed up, you can register here.

Step 2: Choose Your Game

Visit the away travel section on YourClub and select the fixture you want to book travel for. The booking system will show available seats, departure details, and pricing.

Step 3: Complete Your Booking

Enter your details and make your payment online. Prices are banded, with a maximum fare of £30 (£33 for non-members) for long-distance trips, while shorter journeys within the North East and Yorkshire will be cheaper.

• DFCSG Owners receive a £3 discount per booking.
• Under 16s can travel for half the standard fare (rounded up to the nearest £) and receive an extra discount if they are DFCSG Owners.
• Under 16s must travel with a responsible adult.

Once booked, you will receive a confirmation email with your travel details.

Coach Information & Departure

Our luxury coaches, provided by Atkinson’s Coaches, are equipped with toilets and depart from Park Place, Darlington. The coach aims to arrive at its destination 90 minutes before kick-off, giving fans plenty of time ahead of kick-off.

If a match is postponed after departure, you will be eligible for a 50% refund.
