Does the station have to be run by Northern or will the company that does run it sell the tickets if merely served by Northern's trains?

Any staffed station which is served by Northern Rail, i.e. a Nottingham to Leeds service

I see you are in Nottinghamshire?

Northern Rail Stops at the major rail hubs of Manchester, Liverpool, York, Blackpool and Leeds as well as farther-reaching services to stations in Staffordshire, Cheshire, Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Durham and Cumberland, Northern Rail connects the major towns and cities of the north, including rail connections to Carlisle, Chester, Grimsby, Nottingham, Stoke-on-Trent and Sunderland.

Industrial action has been ongoing for some time with Northern Rail, so it's worth checking before you make your plans. They had industrial action on the last weekend of the offer last time, making the weekend more or less redundant, (depending on where you were travelling).

It also serves many Derbyshire stations on 4 different lines including my nearest, Alfreton. Nearest paper is the Worksop Guardian, though.
