Darlo Uncovered

Not sure if we have tried in Bishop but if we havent I will make sure we do!

I also find this annoying. Just as a matter of interest can you explain to us who is entitled to a 'staff badge'. Just curious really as we are not exactly flush and capacity at grounds could be a bit tight. How about nobody? The only employees of the club pretty much are the coaches and the player...

My info is that Still_darlo has been emailed 4 times in response to his emails.

Laura will PM him through here to try and make sure a connection is made.

There is a lot going on in the background but we are pretty much up to date on CIC admin.

I don't mind whether it is an individual or a team, as long as they can deliver.

Could you pass me their details?

Hello!

We keep being encouraged to ask on here first for possible suppliers so here goes

Could anyone recommend or is anyone a professional telemarketer/ telesales guru?

Not looking for free, but certainly looking for value and quality.

Thanks!

Craig, are you at liberty to divulge the percentage we will receive?

In a word - "no"

It is worth noting that we are getting a revenue share from all the pre-season friendlies

Thanks for this, it was forwarded to me yesterday and is in hand

Hi Tony,

Hope all is well!
We have a number of things that will be going out in the free paper as well.
Some ads, some leaflets.

Divas, I dont see the posters just as a route to get people to the matches. They will be used almost as notice boards and will carry contact info, match info, forum and CIC info as well any other fund raising info that we need shared. Not all posters will carry all the messages though. We are gettin...

I am liking some of these ideas and offers of help.
What we need is to be able to get the key messages to the fans who don't read the Echo or come on here.
Leaflets and posters would be an effective way to do this.
Let me chew over how best to make this happen and come back on here later!

We were talking about exactly this on Sunday at the board meeting and we are looking for around 40 windows in town who would be willing to carry posters.

We will need someone who is willing to design them for us though, any offers?
It is imperative that they look credible and professional.

Depends what the system allows you to connect through.

An Ipad would do the job just as well if not better than most laptops....

I will be responding to all the replies at some stage today, I took the weekend off to try and have a bit of a birthday celebration and yesterday was manic with a number of things primarily the new playing name. The volunteers I am looking for are being asked to do quite a bit so I totally understan...

Wellindarlo, Without specifically knowing what he was talking about it is hard to respond. He did say that he felt that he could have had a CVA agreed, I would argue that after the experiences we had in trying to get one. The only other way would have needed a CVA and in very simple terms that would...

@nonleagueshow Shaun Campbell from the original rescue group said publicly “it's been down hill all the way” since 1883 have taken over 1/2 @nonleagueshow Was there a better way forward, how would Craig respond to his claims of “bad practice” leading to “dire consequences”? 2/2 Don't know if you wa...

wellindarlo wrote:Any particular question you want asked by the fans?

yeah, "where can I invest my spare £50,000?" would be a good question to hear!

I will answer any questions put to me as openly as I can.
I feel we can now be open about everything.

Just in case anyone is interested I am answering some questions on the Non-league Show on the radio tonight. If you have any questions you would like to be discussed then let them know. Topics expected to include the appeal, the name and some of the reasons why we are where we are. This link should ...

But Darlington AFC, or AFC Darlington weren't clear front runners anyway, so it's not even as if the majority has been denied is it? 1883 beat everything else in the poll we ran (222 votes vs 142). While it's hardly MORI, it was indicative enough that we could feel we had enough fan backing to prop...

So are we Darlington 1883 FC or Darlington FC 1883 or just Darlington 1883? Its Darlington 1883 The league may add "FC" to the end of it, but again there were lots of reasons why we were concerned about adding "FC" to the end of the submission. I liked the idea of Darlington 1883 FC, Enfield have a...

I can't see why we couldn't have been Darlington AFC when the previous name was Darlington FC. It would be interesting to see if the 1883 board could categorically say that the FA ruled out Darlington AFC. If they did, then fair enough. Some weeks ago the FA told us that "if" we needed to change na...

We didn't have the opportunity to submit one name and then await feedback, then try another of that wasn't allowed as the deadline was very tight as the league are already well behind on their admin and wanted a name today that was going to be acceptable. We had to take the decision that we had advi...

Hello! We announced last week that we will be engaging with a panel made up of CIC members or fans who have invested through other routes. If anyone would like to join this panel please let me know and we can make sure your name is put forward. We are well aware that until the AGM there will be no n...

I have emailed Joe and asked him to try and get a quote from the Trust and get something into the Echo about the ballot again!

Thanks for the messages, everyone who has indicated an interest should have had a PM.
If I have missed anyone, let me know.

Still a couple of spaces for anyone who wants to help.

Hello, We have a fund raising initiative about to launch on the 1st July that is aiming to bring a minimum of 30k into the football club. In order to make this happen and to make it a success I need 10 great volunteers. This could be a great opportunity for someone who can't afford to invest in the ...

Princes,

What is your question on contracts?
