Re: Old Feethams site

[quote="saintw"]Wow, Football pitches on the cricket pitch, I didn't know that. This must have been long before my first visit to Feethams in the very early 90s although the pics in colour so can't be that old. Not only football pitches on the cricket pitch but Darlington F.C. playing a league match...

Pete since you have the time to continually snipe about this why don't you volunteer to do the admin for it?
It will be going up on Monday Pete. I'm hoping to get the correct score and attendance.

Re: Match Thread

All in all a well-deserved point. In some of our play we looked tired and off the pace. Maybe to be expected with Turnbull, Scott & Gillies not really having much of a pre-season. Good to see some usual rubbish aimed at Jameson & Purewal today. Jameson was at fault for the penalty and maybe the fir...

Re: blackwell meadows work !!

I wont believe it till actually happens, we've had statements like this for about the last 2 years. To be honest I'm dispointed in this news as that means we will never get in the football league. Before anyone jumps in I'm not saying we have any divine right to be a league club and that we would g...

Re: Spennymoor sign former darlington keeper

On paper ? It's on the pitch that counts ! Darlington play as a team. That team being greater than the sum of it's parts. On paper England's galacticos are ranked 11 in the world, but on the pitch play like they should be 189th. If Spennymoor have a stronger team than us, as you believe, they should...

Re: Work at Blackwell Meadows

At the fans party night, 3 weeks ago, Richard Cook said work would begin on the pitch in 2 weeks time with the rest following mid June. So we are at most a week behind not a month. No Tempest originally said work would start long before this. As reported in the Echo. If you want to argue about it I...

Re: scorer of the goal

Of course we could win all three of our remaining games and not be promoted.
Forgotten about our 12 point deduction, currently suspended till end of season.
There could be some unfamiliar faces turning out if further injuries are sustained. Hope their paperwork is in order.

Re: Darlington v Skelmersdale Match Thread

Bit of an over reaction. Messi has missed more than 20% of his and still gets to take em. Totally agree, fortunately we have Martin Gray as manager and not Andy Park. Bit harsh on Andy. I rate Galbraith as highly as anyone at the club, but his penalty record is poor. If Hardy had been on the pitch ...

He certainly did handle outside his box, several times. Being stood level with the 18 yard line I had a very good view.
