Darlo Uncovered

Brilliant draw.

IF we can get past Walsall I dont see how it cant be on TV.

Great performance from the players and fans. That said I cant remember in all my years of following football watching a team miss as many easy chances as Walsall did today, we will have to be tighter in the replay. Can see some of our players (and manager) being targeted by other clubs. What a job A...

I wont get there from Mancland until 2ish......in real danger of actually making kick off.

Great news and lift in spirits I would think after losing O Neil.

Anyone calling for Sunderland away or Hartlepool away (did they get through, I haven't checked?) is short sighted. The OBVIOUS best thing for us is the easiest possible home tie in round 1 because there is £36,000 on it. And we're due a home tie. Then if we get through round 1 - same again please i...

I understand that AA has tried everything with Burn. Offered him out on loan to Whitby where he would have received same money (with us paying part wages). Offered to Whickham permanently, in same wages. Offered to train with first team with view to playing RB but made no effort in training so it w...

The interview with Liddle on the official site is absolutely brilliant. Anyone who wasn't there but wants a flavour of what it was all about should have a look. Ive missed 2 away games this season (Trafford and Alfreton) but that interview made up for it. What an absolute star he is. Watching Premi...

Its a shame for TW but I met some Corby directors in Chesham last season (on my way to Wembley with City again) and they liked him but said there was no way he would be brought back as a manager. Dont think hes cut out for it, sames principles in business, you have to be organised and strategic and ...

I quite fancy Buxton away. I wasn’t able to go last time we played there.

Plastic surface now since our last visit.

Its a rebuild season, just stay up and maybe just maybe win a cup game will do me this season.

Some money from a cup run could boost funds a bit too.

Wish I could do this but some long trips recently. Should be a great game.

When is the tie played? Is it still the back end of the month..

Sept 21st I think.

As a Manc someone down here too but a home draw best!

Thought he looked good yesterday.Positive signing for me.

Started well as in every away game, we dont score and the other team do.The confidence seems to drain out of us into them. As one of the lads I went with also said when they scored no one handed out a bollocking on the pitch, we need a leader, a big brute of a CB.I would put into a fund just for tha...

We didn't need segregation though Lucan. On their website it said that it was because we were planning to bring over 250. There was nowhere near that many. I hope it wasn't because there have been incidents at some of our recent away matches. And there's still no excuse. A simple communication to D...

Agree with earlier post, just seems same story but with a different manager and players. We don’t need defenders who can do Cruyf turns or ping 70 yard passes....we need them to be able to defend!!, and in nearly every game there are periods when they simply are not! Again, lovely skilful footballe...

Oh dear, I feel a row coming on! We were okay in patches but didn't seem to try to attack the box especially when 10 v 11. Little penetration but still a points a point. MCFCdarlo was on blue moon meeting Shaun Goater on the away terrace! :D Was great seeing The Goat.Was interested to hear my views...

Are you going to Norfolk via Amsterdam

Haha.....round trip my bad, although Amsterdam looks good!

Shortest trip of the season for me....need it with 9.5 hours to Kings Lynn next week.

Any other exiles on the 12:19 from Manchester Victoria tomorrow or just me?

An hour earlier from Picc

Coming up from Manc for this one, meeting up with Darlo Real Ale Crew (Fizzy Pop Section) in Leeds then off to Wembley Sunday, expensive do. Great going into a season knowing we have a good chance of a crack at the league and (whisper it) a cup run. It may not go well Sat but I always remember an op...

Thought we got about 25k for him as he didnt hit add ons / appearences, might be wrong?

Either way its a great bit of business.

He’s currently on trial, I’m amazed given the amount of defenders we have including Burn! Would love him back at the club but not sure we can afford to have four centre backs. Agree but maybe Burn is going out on loan to free up some wages? Would love Heaton back. Edit: Just seen piggy post re loan...

Cheers, hadnt seen that anywhere else.

I know his Dad. Ben played in the Stockport Junior League when his Dad was his team Manager and I was Manager of my lads team at the time.

Makes sense for him, was great to see him playing for Darlo last season, hope he makes it all the way

I showed the highlights v Motherwell to a pal of mine, who is a next opponent analyst in Scotland. He said: "Darlington are really way off it fitness wise, even for a first game and they were also bullied physically by what is a strong but quite young Motherwell line up that are not as good on pape...

Cant make this but will be at Halifax

Great signing.

We wont get bullied in the middle if we can play him and Holness together.
