Re: Football abroad

Just book it yourself. All I would say is just be aware of football fixtures in the top divisions being moved for TV. However having said that Germany is one of the better options as games tend to be played Saturday afternoon with a couple shifted to a Sunday. Having done plenty of games across Euro...

Re: Statement from the board

Seems to me to be a good idea putting this out there. Fans have vented but constantly sniping at matches and online at needing a new manger doesn’t seem very helpful to me. Rightly or wrongly it seems that Tommy is here for the run in, its time to support the team, make playing for the club pleasura...

Re: Ben O'Hanlon

He has joined Hednesford Town on loan for the rest of the season. I feel that’s a bit of a shame though far from surprising. He was good when he first joined but this season has not looked quite the same player. I suspect a big part of that is a long drive with a new baby in the family. It really c...

Re: Parking at Blackwell Grange Hotel on Matchdays

Good on Blackwell I’m amazed they have been so patient and it has taken this long. Anyone in their right mind who supports the club should stay away from parking there or trying to be clever saying 'what can they do?' They are close neighbours who have politely asked you not to park on their grounds...

Re: Papered over the cracks again...!

Theres too much of this formation changing going on for my liking anyway. I’m not sure if TW has no clue and desperately just throws out endless formations in hope or thinks he/we are better than we are and can deal with endless formation changes. I really struggle to pick out how we’re setting up ...

Re: Darlington V Guiseley

Despite being a season ticket holder Saturday was my first game in a while and I thought it was a decent watch for a 0-0. I’m not quite sure why people seem to be so down, upset or quick to have a go at the players (both at the game and online). First half I can think of 5 or 6 opportunities where t...

Re: Chris Hunter

Shame to see him go and does seem the Wright was not expecting it. Though as I doubt Hunter was going to be first choice RB it can't come as a huge surprise either. I dont have any worry over the players we have at RB. Trotman looks well capable of playing above this level, but both he and Collins s...

Re: Darlington v Brackley Town

Saturday was quite a chastising game and result. The positive would be that Brackely were a good side and at times you just have to hold up your hands and say well done to the opposition. I think it can say a lot when you see teams at this level playing 3-5-2 and making it work so well. The negative...
