Hi Guys

Hope your looking forward to the upcoming game against Doncaster.

If your travelling by road, I'm a DRFC supporter and also the landlord of The Winning Post pub, which is ideally located just off J36 of the A1, with less than 10 minute onward journey to the ground.

We'd like to welcome you in for some pre-match drinks before the game, our sports bar has pool and darts, as well as Sky Sports on the TV's

We have a wide selection of beers, ciders and spirits available and with car parks on both sides of the pub we can accommodate cars, minibus's and coaches. Please let us know in advance about coaches so space can be allocated.

The postcode is: DN4 0TR

Thanks for reading and (apart from next Saturday) good luck for the season

Cheers
Ian

Keep your eye out all for the 16 of us wingerworth JSA coaches who are walking from towns ground up to Doncaster in time for kickoff. Leaving around midnight, it?s about 27 miles. We are doing this in memory of Glenn Kirkwood and raising money for ashgate. If anybody has a spare quid and would like to donate here is the link. Thanks all and wish us luck!

Off tack a little but places like Ashgate Hospice should be funded by the state not ran as a charity

What about council housing authorities registered as charities ?

Along with cancer research and all the other under pressure under funded charities that should be state funded.Maybe if governments considered going for the multi national tax dodgers instead of the easy targets of low paid, disabled and old aged of the country things may improve.

They have highly paid accountants to tie them in knots for years. They much prefer easy targets.
