“We will have a record breaking crowd at the Flamingo Land Stadium for this fixture!

“Taking into account the gaps required for segregation, the capacity was set at 3,205. Including season pass holders, there will be just over 2,370 Boro fans at the game.

“Darlington sold their full allocation of 820, a figure agreed between the clubs after they offered Boro supporters 875 tickets for the game in Darlington.

"Darlington supporters will use the gate at the northern end of the ground, next to the car park. More information will be released before the game.

“Be wary of people claiming they have tickets for sale online, this is very likely a scam.”

Last Monday, former Boro striker Jacob Hazel put Darlington in front before goals from Kieran Glynn and Dom Tear saw the Seadogs take a 2-1 half-time lead.

Mark Beck looked to have earned a point with his 67th-minute goal, but Coulson’s late effort secured a Boro win in front of a record 3,059 crowd at Blackwell Meadows.
