    The overnight temp (Fri into sat) is a bit of a concern. Hope we'll be okay on that front. Don't want another postponement.

    A relatively new ground, perhaps they have undersoil heating.
    I've looked that up and they don't. They are a lower division club who couldn't afford that extra cost.

    No undersoil heating but looking at weather cold snap will have gone with ave temp being 6 degrees

    Useful info that. Think I'll be walking from the station once I make the trip down south for this. One more off my 92 as well.

    From memory it is about 3 miles from the station.

    It’s people like @drfc_slo that restore ones faith in football clubs. Well done, keep up the good work. Whoever’s buying Charlton ... Please take note!

    From what I recall the Bell vue bar is big and spacious and they served a nice pie and pint

    Was it Kermorgants last match in a 3-0 midweek defeat up there

    Brilliant, it would be great if all clubs did this.

    PS Sorry about the abandoned Valley game a few years back. :smile:

    Don’t worry, I don’t think he blames you.

    Thanks @drfc_slo. Really good initiative to drop a message like this.

    Heading up with, amongst others, a mate from work who is a Donny fan (and celebrating his 60th). Looking forward to a beer at the station and the Salutation.

    Well don't to those that are going. And well done for the info. Was on my bucket list to go before the start of the season, but the old 12 hour dayshift has put paid to that.

    How many we sold I’ve a feeling this will be close to 1k, new ground for many as we’ve never played at the Keepmoat on a Saturday?! P.S I was there for yann’s last game

    @TelMc32 good choice

    Insider info from my Donny mate. The Draughtsman Alehouse at the station is meant to be very good, although small. Salutation is on the way to the ground I believe. Also highly recommended.

    Checked the forecast for Saturday. Going to be 8 degrees with a ‘real feel’ of 3 degrees and a 56% chance of rain so don’t forget your anoraks if you’re coming up here.

    Looking cold over night in Donny - I really hope this one isn't called off!

    unfortunately with league 1 majority of the grounds don't have under-soil heating/have the technology but don't connect it up. it is a risk you take, similar to people on my Facebook that go to the Dominican in storm season then whinge that its shit weather. it is minus temperatures overnight but its a warmer Saturday so hopefully game is on, otherwise i know a lot of lads that will be pissed off and its another fixture to add to an already congested schedule.
