Transport alert

Standard Saturday

Nothing unusual in the Doncaster diary for this date. Book advance rail tickets 12 weeks out and check the operator's works page the Monday before.

Ground note

The stadium's Lakeside location means limited genuine 'local pub' options; most food is chain-based.

Ground note

Post-match traffic out of the retail park can be slow — allow extra time if driving.
