Doncaster suspend ticket sales

Doncaster have suspended the sale of tickets at their Keepmoat Stadium offices for Sunday's League One play-off final.

Fans of opponents Leeds and ticket touts have gathered at the ground in the hope of landing tickets for the Wembley showpiece after missing out on the Elland Road club's allocation.

A Doncaster statement read: 'It is with great regret that Doncaster Rovers must announce the suspension of sales of tickets at the Keepmoat Stadium ticket office.

'This is a measure that has been forced into place, due to the high amount of Leeds United supporters and ticket touts who have now started grouping outside the perimeter of the Keepmoat Stadium following the Leeds United allocation at Wembley being sold out completely.

'Despite this, e-mail, telephone and fax orders will still be taken; although every application form will be checked alongside our database and thoroughly vetted before tickets are issued.

'Doncaster Rovers apologises for any inconvenience that this may cause.'

The Football League are expected to release a statement later today.
