Re: Coming soon - Boost the budget

Fantastic effort to get over £80,000 ... it's been a positive last few months (Southport match apart !) on and off the pitch

Re: Darlington v Brackley Town

Well beaten today by a team superior all over the pitch ... ...just to add insult to injury I had the misfortune of being near a bellend from Brackley for most of the match. This Side Show Bob look-a-like was hugely irritating... I obviously could of moved but I like my usual 'spot' at the open end....

A 'measured' post Gramps of which I entirely agree with... although I would 'dread' another fans forum like the last one.

Re: Match thread?

Apart from the opening 30 seconds or so, I thought we played great today. We look 'full' of goals performing like that. It would be nice if we could get regular crowds over 2000 but it appears some 'fans' in the Town still need convincing before they return. The weather didn't help just prior to kic...

Re: From the Board of Directors Summary of Appeal

A reasonably professional statement from the club in my opinion. We now have a timeline of events and what the basis of the appeal will be. Will the FA accept they communicated the term "500 seats" to the club and not "500 covered seats" ? I doubt it... A quote of £33,000 to move the temp seats from...

Very pleasing performance against a side which did have a decent reputation. We nullified them and deservedly won the game. Despite the 10 minutes added on, there was nothing to be alarmed about and we comfortably saw the game out Onto Bradford PA .... we shouldn't under estimate them, it will be a ...

Re: Wednesday night..

Yes, we should beat them, but a crap referee, a stupid red card for one of the players or just plain bad luck can be the difference in any match

A disciplined performance by every Darlo player tonight should be enough to beat Altrincham though

Difficult game today. We didn't play well in my opinion. I thought a draw would have been a fair result but it wasn't to be. One win in ten matches is a concern.. At least 'off the pitch' seemed to go better than Boxing Day. A 2,300 crowd fitted comfortably in. Hopefully we will be able to attract t...

Just making this game happen has been an epic effort by the board, supporters club officials and all the other volunteers.

Re: Bradford PA v Darlo Match Thread

Although we dominated possession for long periods and forced a large amount of corners in the game it felt a bit of a subdued performance from the players on the pitch. In my view, I think those of us in the seats didn't give the kind of 'backing' to the players that we know we are capable of either...
