Darlo Uncovered

I can't understand it, it's crazy - however I can't help thinking (in a naive way) that if it turns out to be one big scam involving people and money that may or may not exist then why can't it be nullified. All the assets are here in this country after all... It's bizarre, that is for certain. How...

Loved watching him play

If its costing clubs up to £50k each to take part in the play offs, and only one team can go up, the other 5 clubs potentially are going to need to find a lot of money to ensure they don't have increased debts/ reduced budgets for next season

He could end up at Vicarage Road.

Could also end up at The Abbey, Cambridge

According to York Press, now looking more likely that NLN & NLS playoffs will go ahead https://www.yorkpress.co.uk/sport/18536158.targeted-dates-york-city-play-off-campaign-revealed/ Still some uncertainty over TV screening with BT Sport & also costs associated with testing programme on players for...

Seems a little unclear where the others stand. Altrincham seem to have said they favour playing them... but the money is a significant caveat. I can’t see any real comment from Chester, Gateshead or Brackley yet? Spending this money strikes me as ridiculous... also, surely the players are all on fu...

Just looking at the current resolution sent to NL clubs as reported in a Non-League Paper article. If passed (which it probably will, otherwise the default is anulment ie no promotion to EFL), there will be play-offs in NLN and NLS "if legally possible". There would be no compulsion for qualifying ...

I’ve been told the play offs in theory could be back on. It seems the league implied that the government had brought in this “elite” rule but they never stipulated about which leagues it applied to. So PPG - the top 6 could compete if they wish. But they don’t have to, although if anyone drops out ...

The reason as I understand it is that the NLN and NLS were not classed as “elite sport” by the DCMS. The NL was considered elite so they can go ahead with play offs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk There are not many Elite sportsmen in the NL I'd say so how do they come to that conclusion probab...

Seems as good a solution as any, and I could see a world where that season ends up being something like March-July next year. ... That won't be allowed to happen because the Euros are next summer so they (UEFA) won't allow leagues to continue whilst Euros are on, even though not many players at Nat...

Kings Lynn jump on the bandwagon and even a Darlo reference in there too. https://www.kltown.co.uk/single-post/2020/06/02/Linnets-launch-Walks-War-Chest Let's see how much Kings Lynn and Gateshead raise.Will be amazed if it comes anywhere near what Darlo fans have donated. Sent from my moto g(6) pl...

So after years of arguing that the club were not formed in 2012, you are now happy for people to state Darlington were formed in 2012?

Strange that you aregued so much against this in the past, now you don't care

No, not me trying to wind anyone up, but what @Bostonutdstats claim on twitter. I have repeatedly tried to point out the correct position to him. Any of you on twitter may want to correct him because the muppet doesn't seem to know the truth https://twitter.com/bostonutdstats/status/1266719499170058...

Is this not a requirement of players in academies?

I seem to think it's an FA ruling

Again dreadful & lazy journalism from the Echo. Georgia Banks stating the monies raised for the Back the Budget was to keep the club afloat because of the Coronavirus. No mention that is was planned long before the Pandemic or that in fact it was to boost the budget of a fan owned club. No wonder t...

Amount of investors have been superb, unfortunately I suspect I may lose my job once coming off furlough so just have to wait whether I can contribute this year. Hope you don't suffer that fate. Sadly, I think there are many people in a similar position at the moment and like you, understandably ca...

I can't believe people criticizing the number of investors or the amount raised. The amount raised each year by fans of Darlington is fantastic. I wonder if there is any other club whose fans ( individuals not corporate investors) raise as much for their club, on top of the usual gate money/ 50/50 d...

The denial occurs on social media as well, despite Brad saying publicly he's already put a 7 figure sum into the club. Their website recently claimed to have offered Thommo a 'similar deal' to us when there are enough people who know this wasn't the case. Add to this the recent falsehoods posted du...

Given the level of funding GAS puts in to the club (not a guess, check the accounts).... Think you have misunderstood the note to the GAS Accounts. It is not the amount of money put into the club by GAS. The note relates to related transactions, not amount put into club. Transactions ARE money put ...

So many things wrong on here. Tommo has gone and just because it’s spennymoor why the digs? Tommo has too much respect for Darlington he said he wants a change let it go. Time will tell if it’s a good move for him. Regarding Jason Ainsley. He took the club from the 2nd division of the northern leag...

Boyes is the most interesting but I bet he was on very good money there. They paid a big fee for him and gave him a two-year deal with the option for a third year. Surprised they have released Roberts who was a regular for them and chipped in with a fair number of goals.Think he played mainly wide ...

A lot of clubs will need a Walsall type model with significant external income sources to support their t...

AS DJ mentioned in his recent interview there needs to be a cap or budget limit at our level, buying your way out of the league is short term and not what the NL & FA should be promoting. They need to grip the bull by the horns and take positive action. Unfortunately we know it is not going to happ...

Answering questions on a net cafe is not going to compromise the furlough. WRONG My daughter has been furloughed. Her letter clearly states you "cannot engage in any activity associated with your employment other than self development (i.e. training and development)" A Netcafe is something a Manage...

Where has the time gone? That's the one consolation we can hold on to from this mess at the moment - hopefully the sands of time will sweep away this nightmare A.S.A P and we will all be standing together in the tin shed end before we know it. I'm not going to lie this lockdown is really starting t...
