Re: Saturdays flare incident

Some of the supposed fans who turned up and caused trouble on Saturday were not even proper Darlington fans. I remember having a conversation with one of these supposed fans who was off his face on something, asking me, 'How are we doing in the league this year and how many points are we off playoff...

Re: What's the point of fan ownership?

What is the point of fan ownership? That's not a rhetorical question, and I don't raise it in the pejorative sense, but how many Darlo fans would be able to give a succinct and compelling answer to that question when challenged? Perhaps you'd give me a brief history lesson on the succession of disa...

Re: Curzon V Darlington

What a game Matty Young had by the way. Dealt with most balls that came into box, made an excellent save first half and looks so composed considering he is only 17! Hopefully we can extend his loan till the end of the season as we are potentially looking at another England international goalkeeper i...

Re: Reset

Correct me if I am wrong but aren’t Hereford and Boston under ownership, both similar to us ex EFL teams who have been stagnating in the NLN like us for years.

Re: Darlington v Alfreton 10/02/24

Bottom line is, as we know, that actually none of our forwards are stand out at this level no matter what pairing we try. However, Kane and Haaland together wouldn’t score for us either because the creativity, through balls, crosses, quick one two,s on edge of area just don’t happen from our curren...

Re: Darlington v Hereford

Honestly thought 4 weeks into the job and £30k in hand that Watson would have strengthened forward areas by now. Even Cornish looks like he hasn’t played since Oct.!

For me if Jameson is available it makes total sense to bring him in - proven at this level and above

Barrow and Jameson are two excellent signings who improve us without question
Compared to JG first signings Dobson and Hannah.

It's not all Gowling's fault- we were bottom of the table when he came in and the likes of Hazel and Felix were key components of the team who went from top to bottom of the table, so they (and the other players) have to ...

I also don’t understand how Nelson still gets into the squad. Doesn’t really offer anything, doesn’t like driving with the ball and looks to lump every opportunity he gets.
