Darlo Uncovered

As some people have said, streaming only brings in income if there is any football. Worrying times for many clubs.

I'm guessing here, but in legal documents when it says 'Should' that is actually an imperative - i.e. it means 'must' I'd be surprised if the same principle didn't apply here - that 'it's best if spectators keep away from games' actually means that local authorities will say they can't attend. I'm a...

First match is away at Fylde - with Lancashire set to go into partial lockdown.

Yes, that's what they reported lo. The 'Amateur and semi-professional sporting event' is confusing.

Was in a Daily Fail article lo. Knowing them they could have got their facts wrong. If Darlington itself isn't involved in the local lockdown (thanks to Peter Gibson for clarifying that actually), what about our supporters who live in the lockdown areas? Will they be allowed to travel to Darlo to sp...

No spectators allowed at NE grounds during the local lockdown

Yes, I came from the Midlands and my dad who lives in Darlington had to buy tickets and post them next day delivery, so that was an issue.
Scarborough were sharper, you could tell that, and they were well up for it, whereas we took it for what it was, a training game.

Interesting that the official site on the preview for the Scarborough game says he's our "New Keeper".

I think we all agree that our recruitment of keepers needs improving. However, AA did admit he rushed it last year and that he'll take his time, using the loan route if need be. I think Saltmer will get his chance, but if found wanting then we'll go the loan route. A tough one though, as sometimes t...

I do feel you're digging yourself a hole a bit here Old Git. People are just asking for evidence for your claims so they can engage in a reasonable debate. If someone was asked to provide video evidence of Charman being sharp then there's plenty of it yesterday, whereas you'd struggle to provide evi...

I was wondering about that too. Old Git said that he felt Saltmer hadn't commanded his area well enough v Fleetwood, but that's the sort of thing that a highlights package wouldn't pick up.

Give us a clue then Darlo Fan 97

Some good build up play by ourselves. That was a big miss by Donawa at 2-0. Lovely move to set up Campbell but he shot just wide. Our trialist keeper had a good game. Already we have the winner of the softest penalty of the season. If it is Elton Ngwatala he's scored against us for Kidderminster bef...

McMahon was at Scunthorpe for quite a bit of last season (says Wiki but confirmed by a Scunny fan I know).

OK. Own up. Who did this on Wikipedia? Look at the first line.

Do you reckon he’s signed instead of a midfielder, as Hedley or Atkinson can move into the midfield.

This is the million dollar question. AA wanted an attacking midfielder, so that may be more Hedley than Atky

You would have thought that being classified as Elite Level sport, the criteria for steps 1 and 2 would be different. Not sure the clubs that have been mentioned would accept the FA putting an articificial limit which is over and above government guidelines. If they can still get crowds of 3,000 but...

Good. I hope the club do them for slander. We've also had some absolute idiots on here recently posting some very nasty stuff. Some people seem to have a bit of an agenda at the moment. If I was the club I'd be rather interested in finding the IP address and identity of some of the posters on both t...

Why did the academy move from BM and where is it based now?

Pre-season training starts Monday

Seemingly so, but lots of questions too. What does he intend to do with the stadium? What if we jumped into bed and 5 years down the line it's sold on etc.etc. But certainly no harm in talking to him.

Clue please bga

What a spiteful little thing to say. We're in the middle of the pandemic, people are trying to be creative about this, and you spit your dummy out and say 'Fuck the club'. Bugger off to Spennymoor and support them instead You'd fit in we'll there. We don't want you here.

Isn't there a rule that the capacity of your temporary ground must be capped at the capacity of your permanent ground?

Obviously his higher wages paid for by their Boost the Budget.

And played for Blyth and is from Stockton. Ticks the AA boxes.

Spenny?

If we've offered Holness terms but He's put them on hold and in the meantime we sign a replacement for him but he comes back and accepts, what is the situation there?

Some of the idiots in chief at the Spendy end are finding it hard to stomach that Maguire has rejected the vibes so are just inventing inflated figures about the signing even when their ignorance of the facts and stupidity has been exposed by people who know the score. Some seem to be a greener sha...

You don't necessarily get more injuries when you are older, it's just the recovery time that gets longer after an injury.
