Our Buddy Scheme has got off to a great start, with nearly 300 of our fans contacted by DFC club officials and volunteers in the last fortnight.

We’ve had loads of positive feedback from fans, who have been genuinely pleased that somebody from the club has taken the time and trouble to contact them in order to make sure that they’re in good health and coping with circumstances.

Here is some of the feedback we’ve had.

“It says so much for the club that they’re keeping in touch, I’m proud to be a fan”

“Receiving a phone call was so typical of a club that is at the heart of the community”

“It was a big surprise when Dave Mills rang me”

 “It’s great to know that the football club cares so much for its fans”

“I had a great chat with Dave Watson”

“It was good to talk football with the team manager!”
