Darlo Uncovered

I seem to remember several years ago when Spennymoor where signing several Darlington players, posters on here were calling them Darlo Reserves. Will you now be called Blyth reserves. :?: Personally, I disagreed with addressing you as such. To me and indeed some others you were and still are Evenwo...

A very, very cute tactic by the club to set this off BEFORE the new manager is installed.

I very much look forward to the reaction of many people when Big Mart inevitably makes his triumphant return.

PR spin, nothing more and nothing less.

Next.

Feethams was simply patched up and with health and safety requirements becoming stricter at some point eventually it would have needed replacing. I tend to disagree, had we stayed there then the West Stand would have likely have been closed down/demolished by now but the Polam Lane End and Tin Shed...

Has to be the Arena, as Feethams was a dump when we left it, although the Arena is probably a dump by now.

It looking a bit sad these days, I saw a comment on Sunderland’s forum saying it looks abandoned from the outside!

Discuss.

I can't be the only one who becomes desperately sad every time I see Feethams in video?

You're not, although it's more bitterness for me these days.

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it, time and time again.

That's all I'm saying.

There is a lot of anger among the Hereford fans directed towards the board and the new management team. On Tuesday some of their fans were singing songs in support of the former manager and there were unsavoury scenes at the end with allegations that a fan threw punches towards one of their players...

Ridiculous title.

Regardless of what happened back in 2012 I wouldn't want them to fold.

They may have won the match that day but lost out as I recall the attendance on the day was the second smallest we'd had after Penrith when we were in the Northern League.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/65/Safe_standing_area_fitted_with_rail_seats.jpg/200px-Safe_standing_area_fitted_with_rail_seats.jpg Is this an option for us? I know certain competitions don't allow it but it could really help us in ticking a few boxes around seats/ capacity ...

Quakerz (left) and Darlo_Pete (right) in happier times.

A delighted Quakerz celebrates winning the roll of honour.

The flip side is maybe he has permission from ourselves/Stalybridge to do this?

I would be careful not to jump to conclusions here with out knowing the terms of the loan agreement between the two clubs and an apparent lack of knowledge regarding FA rules on this matter? (Which rule is he breaching?)

Like a few others, I believe the current team and the manager are not good enough.

It's over them to prove us wrong.

If I were you I’d prepare for a blank Saturday.

I remember Lee Ellison playing non league for likes of shildon and bishop. Seemed decent at that level. He once said the scotch guy at Darlington knocked his confidence when he was younger? I'm sure he had one final shot as a pro with Darlington in late 90s under David hodgson. He was definitely pl...

Agree with most of what has been said in this thread with regards to Wright and personally after yesterday I'm at a crossroads, although my confidence in him is decreasing I'm still holding onto that bit of hope that he can turn it around and that in a couple of weeks time we'll be able to forget ev...

Galbraith was holding the defence together plus taking corners from both sides, we were doing much better before he went off injured I don't think we play better at any stage of yesterday, we started off badly and just continued, but he was the best of a bad bunch in defence. Anybody notice in the ...

Around 350-400 there tonight.
Bollox.You actually believe Spenny had over 1300 there!!!.6-700 from Darlo at least.

Hook, line and sinker.

I reckon we'll still take around 500 to the game. I’ll have some of what you’re smoking? Fucking 500, go to sleep Pete. We took just shy of 800 in April for an absolute meaningless game. We will take over 1,000 tomorrow. Fucking 500, give your head a shake :lol: :lol: Come on then, who called it ri...

Never heard of him.

My one concern though is he's already a bit of a journey man for 24 year old, if I've read it correctly we are his 8th different club.

Regardless it is only really possible to judge him on what he does for us on the pitch, welcome to the club Alex!

It's BPA who are at Kiddy on Sat, Q4L. Spenn are home to Southport.

Sorry I probably worded that wrongly, what I meant was if Spenny finish in the play offs they'll play Kiddy away and as things stand I can't see anything other than Kiddy beating them.

I went along tonight and I have to say Spenny looked absolutely knackered, they were lethargic and sloppy and never really started playing until Ferriby equalised. The mammoth run of games has really taken it's toll on them I think they've played Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday just about every week for...

Allegedly.

Apparently McGill's deadline for bids is on Monday, the ownership situation there could have a baring on whether or not they move to Monk's Cross.

I'm pretty sure the league won't allow us to play them at home twice!

Unless you ground share I'm pretty sure that's a no no.
