Re: Blood on hands/heads must roll
How many times under Gowling did we bemoan playing well, but not really hurting the opposition? It is kind of happening under Watson now. Never. We never played well under Gowling. Every game was tedious negative plodding dogshit and I hate him for it. Under Watson, although results haven't really ...

Re: Any new faces
He says he will be playing again this season despite suffering setbacks in his recovery from a bad injury. Is said to be one of the higher earners at Kiddy. Some player if fit and still not yet 30 but no doubt the injuries have taken a toll. I could imagine he's looking for part-time now. As well a...

He's an Alfreton player who was dual registered with Ossett.

Re: Latest accounts
I don't actually think the average crowd is much different this season to last.
Although the outgoings will be a fair bit more!

Re: Blood on hands/heads must roll
The bit that really grates on me is how DJ and the board reacted to Mark Beck leaving. We were told targets were unaffordable, expectations were dampened, and ultimately AA’s budget was reduced. At the time we nodded along but given the disastrous appointment of JG who was given a significantly inc...

Re: Blood on hands/heads must roll
DJ has led us to a path of success, over the last few years while keeping the finances in check, so not going into administration again, and 6 leagues down. There have been innovations like the way you can pay by tapping on a terminal to pay which were led by the board members, (very rare at other ...

Let's be clear, there was no argument against sacking Clowning.The_Natural wrote: ↑Sat Feb 10, 2024 10:39 pmThis was always the argument against sacking Gowling, just throwing good money after bad in a losing cause
The only argument was that we didn't boot giggles soon enough.

Re: Darlington v Alfreton 10/02/24
Who are you going for exactly? Salkeld, Curry, Rivers, Nelson? Sadly, all of the above have been given shedloads of opportunities and have proven to not be good enough. Curry has been injured for much of the season so it's unfair to say he's had shedloads of opportunities. Although yesterday he did...

Broken record I know! , but how come we still have not signed a couple of creative players. They have been here long enough now surely to have made this happen.

Re: Darlington v Alfreton 10/02/24
Let's be brutally honest here. We're going down. I didn't believe it until yesterday, in fact at half time yesterday I was confident we would win. But the old weaknesses showed again yesterday. Handed them 2 goals and at the other end huffed and puffed with no end result. To be fair the Alfreton kee...

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...

Re: Brackley v Darlington
The only thing they should apologize for is doling out a 2 year contract to Armstrong ! If they're gonna be apologising for that, they also need to apologise for cutting his budget despite a record BTB, and apologise for the appointment of Clowning and the decision to back him in getting rid of Haz...

Anyone who has ever worked for an agency can tell you that their 6 month contract means nothing. You can be let go at any time, with only a week's notice, for a million and one different reasons.wizardofos wrote: ↑Sun Feb 04, 2024 7:04 pm

By the way, break clauses only apply to property contracts.

Getting something at Brackley was a...

That's sounds like a pretty good summary of the situation IMO. It is a good summary but it doesn’t suit 97s narrative that the club is being mismanaged.

Re: Asante
My patience is definitely wearing thin if he's contracted for next season. If that's the case it's a ridiculous decision.
