Stadium Blueprint with Waterpipe location

I found a blueprint of the plans for the stadium that are different to what we currently have, there's more seats, so perhaps these were original plans or upgrade plans? Either way, it does have the location of the water pipes, and the area that we're not allowed to build on. It does make interestin...

Which Pre-Match Pub?

As only a privileged few can get into the bar at the ground, and there is no outside bar for the opening game, where are you likely to go for your pre-match drinks? The closest bars are Sloans, and The Grange on Grange Road, but I have no idea if they're even open at those times, and neither have Sk...

From today's Northern Echo...
Representatives of the Football Association inspected Blackwell on Tuesday, while yesterday members of the Stadium Advisory Group visited the venue.
I'm looking forward to hearing the news. :)

Re: DFC Fans Lottery - new online entry

Fantastic idea about making more weekly prizes, the £1000 monthly prize is a massive selling point, but I don't think the weekly prize needs to go up. It shouldn't be the same odds to win £50 as it is £1000 monthly prize, as it currently stands. There's around 460 people playing at the moment so the...

Re: CIC Twitter account - new badge?

New Badge, as in New badge for the Football Club?, or New Badge for the CIC?

I hope we're really not considering changing the Football Club badge with the history that goes with it that?, and as a second note the price that we paid to actually keep that badge.

It's interesting on the wikipedia page for 'Darlington 1883' it mentions that we didn't add the words 'Football Club' to our current name.

What a great night that was in the Dolphin Centre at the presentation evening, we were told "this is your trophy as much as it is ours, pass it round, take as many photos as you want, unlike 2011 when the FA Trophy was locked away for no one to see".

The line in the E,I,O song "We are Darlo, We are Darlo, We are Darlington", always used to be "We are Champions, We are Champions, We are Darlington", circa Brian Little era.
