Re: Matty Young

If true, this will be splendid news. He's an integeral part of our now more solid defence.

Re: Matty Cornish

Been really impressed with this lad, chance creation has been a huge problem for us for a long time now but he’s playing a massive part in changing that. Wouldn’t expect a lad come from the relegation zone in the NPL to have a such a instant impact. We’ve very rarely brought players in from lower l...

Re: Matty Cornish

I expect the deal is only until the end of the season and then see which league we're in and take it from there.

Matty Cornish

Signed a contract until the end of the season. On official website. Can only be good for us.

Re: Curzon V Darlington

Realistacly a point would be a decent return, also would be two unbeaten going into the home game on Saturday. Win that and it's 7 from 9 and anything is possible. However, this is Darlo and it's the hope that kills us lol.

Re: Darlington v Buxton

May as well put this on repeat, but why even bother with a pre match interview. How on earth can we fail to ask about the central defence position and whether we can recall Sukar, never mind the Asante situation. It’s like we are just going through the motions of doing one but know it’s a complete ...

Re: Any new faces

We've signed Matty Young from Sunderland. A promisong young keeper by all accounts. Didn't notive the length of loan on the official site.

Re: Reset

Not sure we have a balanced view on the loss of revenue to be honest, while clearly there will be hit from the league funding, and loss of 2 games as mentioned. The sponsorship etc may take a hit, but if we have a successful year may be not? Away following, there are only a few games where we get n...

Re: South Shields v Darlo

Seeing as Tommy Taylor needs a fitness test, whether he passes it or not, maybe a stand by keeper coming in for a couple of weeks wouldn't have been amiss? Nothing mentioned thus far and I feel that if Tommy were to be injured again we would be ripped apart if we were to have to play an outfield pla...

Re: Any new faces

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 Satur...

Re: Brackley v Darlington

I notice the usual suspects were out on Twitter as soon as the full time whistle went. Going to Brackley with heavy legs after a long trip to Banbury was never going to be easy yet they are complaining like this is not good enough and this result has relegated us. Getting something at Brackley was ...

Re: Brackley v Darlington

Another difficult game. Play like we did on Tuesday and we probably have no chance. Play like we did against Hereford then who knows. I would give Siddik a start here and I think Curry probably deserves one too. Agree, would start those two as well but definately Curry. Just hope Barrow may be fit ...

Where was Asante, given that he was going through fitness work before Tuesday's postponed game? Maybe some sort of setback.
I wonder if he was being rested so he's as fresh as possible for Tuesday? I woukd assume that there will be some tired guys after that and somr niggly knocks maybe?

So, Tommy will be in the nets on Saturday I presume? He will be well aware that he is likely to be 2nd choice keeper going forward, so hopefully he can remain upbeat and put in a good perfomance.

87% of the way there.....just £3k and bit more needed. Amazing effort post xmas. Looking very likely the target will be hit, another outstanding effort from Darlo fans and cannot imagine any other club in our league matching this.Fingers crossed SW and TM have some good signings lined up.

Don't think working in the Newcastle Academy is classed as being unemployed.
Maybe he can gert us a couple of loanees who are up to this league and fit enough to at least run at the opposition.

Ah, you're probably correct.

One of the best. If only we could find someone like h...
