Re: Monkey hangers

While a bit of schadenfreude is fine lets not forget that most hangers were decent to us when we were in the clarts. I wouldn't wish what we have gone through on anyone.

Re: Extra security measures for Gray on Saturday.

it could all be mind games designed to upset York and pave the way for a famous Darlo win ;-) That or the club think the half brained clown army will be out in force so are taking steps to prevent any issues. Why should be covering costs of this fencing and security? Absolutely pathetic. Bloke deser...

Re: Gainsborough v Darlington Match Thread

We are in trouble and going down unless something changes VERY quickly. I couldn't go yesterday so was only listening on the radio but we don't seem to have any direction or system or even a group of players who seem to care enough to offer a professional performance. It is worrying. Yesterday remin...

Re: The Blackwell Deal

It's clearly commercially sensitive. It would provide details over cost based and split of revenues which no sensible company would ever do. When you spent money on a burger at Heritage Park the club didn't get a penny of it - did you complain then? When you spent money on a beer at Heritage Park t...

It would have been quite understandable if the rugby game had kicked off at 2pm, but it was actually a kicked off at 3pm, but I realise the half dozen or so rugby club members take precedence over the 100 or so footie fans in the bar.

just back from the match ( home game for me) We were terrible. No shape, no formation and no ideas. Bartlett kept the score respectable. Gave soft goals away again. Scott: Poor. Galbraith: Poor.

Re: Ferguson & Beck: YC 60K

If Ferguson and Beck have gone for money then great. We always have been and always will be a selling club. They have gone. Someone else will come. The benefit is the gaping black hole in our finances might be plugged. This reminds me of Gary Himsworth leaving for York for a very particular sum of m...

It is clear we could not meet MG's expectations and provide him with the vehicle to fulfill those ambitions. I am sorry that it ends like this (performance wise) but it was time for a change.

Got to agree with the above - it will be a blow to loose Gray but he may have reached as far as he can go with us. York are a full time side with a big budget and offer a vehicle for him to get closer to the football league. We cant offer that at this stage. Perhaps it is time for a change for all p...
