Hope someone puts the covers on tonight. Forecast for heavy frost.

So who might that "someone" be? Maybe it's the "They" that Darlo_Pete referred to the other day. Maybe "they" have noticed that min temp tomorrow night is forecasted to be +2C and rising to +5C on Wednesday.

Official tweet 4 minutes ago advising 650 tickets to go on general sale

Let's beat Walsall first. They will not be so easy to shock this time and we will not have a full squad to pick from. Oxford United are in better fettle than Walsall. As we will be on BT Sport for replay, cannot see too many of their fans making the trip. Fans need to be aware that tickets are limi...

I could see BBC or BT showing Lincoln v Ipswich as well.

Two teams from the same division? Not BBC's usual format.

Can anybody advise as to whether there are any coaches running to this? And what the prices and departure times could be?

Thanks

There you go: https://darlingtonfc.co.uk/news/book-yo ... to-walsall

No it means the FIFA does not permit the deal to happen outside of the transfer window

Or could he not be signed on dual registration like Alex Storey is?

'Dual registration' only applies to non-contracted players.

Nothing more than cramp according to his most recent interview.

The recent renewals communication from dfcsg emphasise the point and even mention Bolton & Bury.

As stated previously when I mentioned it to the stewardess towards the end of last season she had been unaware of the problem and nobody had informed our SLO. They obviously tried to fix it during the summer which makes me think it might be mechanical so would be best stopping it if so.

It was also used to replace the damaged perspex in the dugouts to give a clearer view. At the dfcsg agm there is always an update on what has been spent . The rugby club will be unaware of the clock so I will mention it to the stewardess and if it is a mechanical fault can suggest that it is set at ...

Another significant step forwards for Darlington Football Club. We'll done Paul Thomas.

I understand we have O'Neill until the end of December, which is a bit different to the handful of matches that we had Nelson for.

Why should he keep an opinion to himself? If he’s got one, and it’s genuinely held, I don’t see what’s wrong with expressing that on a message board, designed for that purpose. Too many people seem to want to shut down any criticism whatsoever. I personally disagreed with Laing being described as a...

Never seen grass so long. But guess you prepare a pitch to how you play and we did not adapt to the ball from defence holding up quick enough. Grass length only matched by Lancaster a couple of seasons ago in the FA Cup. Again, had a significant effect on the outcome. But I don't remember us defend...

Nothing to stop you doing both and once come on darlo is done you don't have to remember after that.

If the stewardess has not sorted it during the break hopefully a SLO will be in place for you to contact.
.

Quite a lot of people mentioned it to the volunteers but nobody had informed the SLO so I checked with the stewardess towards the end of the season. It was the first she knew of it as the rugby club do not use the stand. At present there is no SLO in place but that should be the person to inform abo...

Looking at tweets from DFC & DFCSG they have had a good response to the appeal for volunteers although it would be nice to see some younger ones (nearer 60 rather than 70 or 80) especially to push onwards & upwards.

Not quite a 'fantasy league', but I'm sure DFCSG would appreciate new additions to their 'Come on Darlo' prediction league, which has been running for 16 years (closing date Friday): https://dfcsg.co.uk/?page=comeondarlo

Begs the question why agree the fixture in the first place?

I'm fairly certain the Whitby match was originally down for this Saturday and then got moved to accommodate the Middlesbrough U23s match.

I know we nearly always fail in cup competitions and any money would be welcome, but is it only me that thinks it is strange for the FA to reward failure? Thing is Pete, in the qualifying rounds it is very feasible for a home team team to lose money from staging an FA Cup or Trophy match. Maybe not...

100% Halifax.

I doubt many will in a rush to come back after that somewhat shambolic day.

Shambolic for who? The Halifax fans have no reason not to come back. They had so much space they were strung out along the fence like washing line!

Can't imagine our pitch is better than theirs. Bit disappointed was looking forward to going down to Halifax for this game.

I trust you will overcome your disappointment and boost Darlo's coffers by venturing to Blackwell Meadows instead.

Couldn't make it tonight, what was the end score?

The final score is on the official site along with the highlights

Has anyone emailed asking for a statement? I was told goalmouths have beeb reseeded so was that obvious on Saturday or on the highlights?

Last tweet I read it was still £260 which would pay to sponsor a kit to raffle especially as Scott was looking for suggestions to create momentum

At Bishop the Trust sponsored shirts and raffled them off to pay for following season’s shirts and xmas party for stewards so could be a way of raising funds for the board as enough has been donated already. Contact details are commercial@darlingtonfc.org.

The Echo article quotes Armstrong saying that "He will be first choice and that was a big selling point for him". It seems pretty clear to me. I would expect the Academy prospect Cameron Hall to be on bench duty with a view to bringing a 'keeper in on loan in the event of injury or suspension.

Rob Duncan is the contact on DFCSG website for Fundraising so probably worth emailing him first with any future fund raising ideas but Andrew Foulds does the raffle on the away bus so could be how he got involved this time

Food has improved towards end of last season. With a near 30% rise it sounds like they have sorted out a better offering, hopefully someone from the club can confirm it either way, if not then £45 is not something I’ll be buying anymore. As a fan funded club who actually decides on pricing as a reg...
