Darlo supporters have once again shown their generosity by paying for the team coach to FC United for the penultimate away game of the season!
On every away journey this season, fundraisers Andrew Foulds and Gavin Ellis have held a raffle and quiz, and yesterday they made the most of the long (and delayed) trip by raising over £500. Andrew's Raffle raised £90, giving him a superb total of £1,712 for the season, which has gone to the Ground Development Fund.
Gavin's quiz, meanwhile, raised a magnificent £410, which included £350 worth of donations, which when added to his running total, is enough to pay for the team bus to FC United. Gavin has already raised a similar amount earlier in the season to pay for the team bus to Stockport County!
The club is very grateful to them for their supreme efforts, and also thanks to everyone who has taken part in the raffles and quizzes on the supporters bus this season.
Andrew would like to thank Glen and Mary for allowing the raffle, and also:
