popular STAND fanzine issue 85

Behold, the two-time almost award-winning fanzine popular STAND is back again. Issue 85 of the fanzine has returned from the printers and is ready to go on sale at Doncaster Rovers’ home match with Leyton Orient on Saturday.

Where can I buy it?

We have managed to pull together four (count them four!) people who are ready and willing to sell you copies of issue 85 outside the stadium before Rovers vs Leyton Orient. From around 1:30pm until 2:50pm we’ll be in position at the following locations; beneath the statue on the path from the lake, by the Belle Vue bar,outside the South Stand turnstiles, and near West Stand turnstiles 15-18. If we’ve not sold out before kick-off you’ll also have the opportunity to buy a copy after the match at the entrance to car-park two.
