Darlo Uncovered

https://darlingtonfc.co.uk/fixtures

Wow. Check out our fixtures on the official website. They're not hopeful of this ending anytime soon.

Gramps, your request for a personally engraved golden toilet seat is the most pointless one I've heard yet. No-one needs a toilet seat any more. We're all shitting in holes in the ground and using leaves as there's no bog roll.

Sponsorship could take a big hit if companies can't attord to renew or go bust.

Pay day Monday for me then the club will be getting some more from me. I'd love us to raise 30k to be fair, as 20k is probably on the low side of the estimate.

Dilly dilly appears to be Hutchy. That's his writing style. If you don't know him he's been a die hard Darlo fan for years. Very funny and completely barking mad (in a good sense) I remember during the Conference season 89 going on the supporters coach and Hutchy would grab the mike and entertain us...

Another thought to bear in mind is that a number of clubs (at our level and above and below) may not have their benefactors any more as post Coronavirus they may not have the wealth to be able to splash willy-nilly on a club. This actually happened to us when Raj's company got into financial difficu...

If you do that without a break in between seasons I.e next season kicks off in October a week after this season has concluded in September having had a break from now until then it'll be impossible. Player recruitment, contracts, budgets for teams playing in different leagues etc. are all to be over...

National League meeting again on Monday according to AA. He didn't want today's game to go ahead and said he doesn't think Tuesday will be on.

Ron, feel sorry for Pat. She won't be getting a sweet tonight for dinner.

OK, so 500 fans chucking in 50 quid each to keep us on an even keel in a once in a lifetime occurrence.

It'll be the last chance to see us for some time, although living near Boston I'm hoping I may have the chance on Tuesday. Divas is right in that what confronts us will be unprecedented and it will have big implications for next season too. I'm wondering if we'll need to do some fundraising going fo...

Government about to do a U-Turn and announce from next weekend a ban on mass gatherings of over 500 people to ease the burden on the emergency services. So you handle it 2 ways as a league. You either ask clubs to limit crowds to 400 (taking into account the extra 100 players/officials/volunteers an...

Which one onewayup? The save at Leamington or the penalty at Tamworth? I say both

I'm sure we could make a slush fund, just like we did to raise money in various ways before.
500 fans chipping in £50 is 25 grand.

It's not in DJ's character to be underhand like this though, and he wouldn't put the idea out there if there wasn't an idea of how to fund it. You're usually a bit more positive than this H. I think the coronavirus is getting to you.

What you're saying doesn't fit with what the government are saying though. They're saying that gatherings of the type in our league don't really carry much of a risk. A bigger factor might be further postponements if teams get infected and have to self-isolate for 7 days. Crowds may certainly be dow...

Latest advice - carry on as normal and only self-isolate when symptomatic, so no stopping of sporting events.

Just to analyse further Ginge's point about us needing a hot streak and others to stumble: Let's say we got another 20 points. This is a record of 6-2-2. Tough, but doable. We would end up on 68. Now, due to our poor goal difference, other teams would have to finish a point behind us. So, to end up ...

You missed a word out Gramps - unpleasant.

Will you lot please stop it. My sides are actually hurting. Comedy gold.

It's not March 31st yet.

I don't think somehow Gramps would disagree with you that Reynolds is deluded.

Some people lost their jobs because the stadium was built too big, and built on credit, most of which was not paid back when the club went into admin, so due to the loss of revenue of the many companies involved in building the stadium, some people paid with being laid off so that these companies co...

We won't have to. They chose to travel up the night before.

Les, it's probably because he wants to. Back in early 18 at a Netcafé he said he wanted to invest in the club at a later date and that was 2 years ago.

Great news. Regarding David, does anyone in the know know if he's done his 'shadowing' of the commercial side at Walsall yet?

Does anyone know more exact numbers as to how many 500 club memberships gradually expire over the next 3 years?

Also, on Luke Trotman, he's going to set up home with his Love Island girlfriend in Windsor which is a rather long way from Darlo.

You mean Rhodri Giggs - he has previous

Just noticed the Leamington game re arranged for the sunday after the season would have officially ended

That's a default date for unrearranged fixtures.

Even when we got to 6th other teams had games in hand which they duly won. Be surprised if 7th place only got 66 points
