Re: Darlington V Peterborough Sports

Me personally I would go full strength at Rushall and hopefully get the win which realistically barring a complete capitulation would see us pretty much safe. Then I'd be giving a day off to the likes of Barrow, Main, Cornish in the Chorley game. That is the one remaining game where the players sti...

Re: Darlo V Scunthorpe

Assuming we can now avoid relegation, and who would bet against that now, we can look forward to next season and how we should strengthen the team. Most of this season we were crying out for forwards but now that the goals are flying in and with Asante just about fit, we appear to have an abundance ...

Re: Moke gone

I thought that. Unless I am mistaken there wasn't a single Gowling player who featured against Curzon Ashton? It was Armstrong + Watson. Proof enough to have him as one of the worst managers we have ever had.Cannot ever see him managing a club above NPL level, but if he manages to talk his way into...

Yes he has Pete if you read near the bottom, Have you realized that Pete has been posting these ridiculous statements for years to get a reaction.

Re: Curzon V Darlington

Their keeper could barely stand up, yet we weren't shooting. And what was even more mystifying were the short corners or outswinging corners instead of getting the ball under the crossbar. We had 9 shots in the second half. How many up until Hatfield's goal? 0 or 1 perhaps. There are 6 on the highl...

The Curzon Ashton player-manager Craig Mahon says he expects us to come and defend and concentrate on not losing. Maybe he'll be preparing for the wrong sort of game. I'm sure we'll be going there with attacking intent.
Double bluff.

Maybe we can get an acadamy player on loan from one of the big 3 north east clubs, one who can at least run down the wing and cross the ball. South Shields will slaughter us if we don't do something. Another thing, is Tommy fully fit or are we looking at a loanee replacement? Looked painful on Satu...

Re: Darlington v Alfreton 10/02/24

With just 8 home games left, it is really important we get a good run of home form going. The last one, when we beat Hereford was more like it, and we need more of the same on Saturday against Alfreton. We will have to see exactly who is available, but would think we might go with a back 4 of Griff...
