Unfortunately, given we will be playing in the Isthmian League, you won't be able to visit the Winchester Arms in Taunton this year!!! :(
Yeah that's true mate, will miss our trip to your fine establishment.

Both the season ticket offerings and the sale of alcohol on the terraces is a great initial offering from the club on the back of the many excellent suggestions on this thread. A few weeks back I was at Bury Town and they were doing a roaring trade selling plenty of beer at their bar situated on the terracing. The reusable plastic pint pot was offered at £1 deposit. Mind you at the end of the match there was stacks of the plastics pint pots left around the ground as most people couldn’t be bothered to claim back the deposit. Reckon there is definitely some mileage in this for the Darts, although I’d probably ditch the pictures of players on the side and go for something more permanent! The beakers aren’t cheap but the initial outlay would soon be covered with those unclaimed deposits. And why not a sponsor’s name and some DFC branding? Could be a nice little earner for the club…

I would have thought that would only be a problem if the game was segregated. Otherwise, there's no reason why it can't operate as normal.

Just take your season ticket with you and show it once you enter the ground?

Good action from the Board and I look forward to seeing what is done to get more fans in PP and his thd experience can be improved
With regard to the free season ticket for youth to the age of 16 I feel the Board “owe”young fans and this ticket should be available up to the age of 17 and 364 days

Whilst the Board are now looking for new initiaves and how other successful Clubs [ eg Chatham] are doing then worth a look at Wellings latest way forward with a " Supporters Ambassador " who acts as a comunication /PR link from the Board to the Fans , something thats NOT ever happened at the Darts ,

I know a man [ most of us do !!] who could fill that role and do a great job !!!!!

You can purchase your season ticket online – https://boxoffice.ktckts.com/sales


Has anyone purchased their ticket online
Firstly the link doesn't work, but you can navigate through our website to find the correct one.

Secondly is there an option to get the season ticket posted after payment is made?

Hi Mark,

Yes you're correct that link doesn't work so i'll let the club know.

I had the same problem so purchased my ticket a week or so ago on the club website and used the following link:-
https://dartfordfc.ktckts.com/package/d ... ket-202425

From memory i'm sure it gives you the option of either collecting or having it posted to you.
