Ainge

Got to agree. He’s an Evo-Stik striker at best BUT he’s not far off football league standard as a centre back. If he’s happy to play centre back then he’ll be a huge asset for the club. If his heart is set on playing up front then he’ll be a liability. My MOTM yesterday by some distance.

Re: Jake Turner - New Signing

I think James Speare is the worst goalkeeper I’ve ever seen play for Darlo. Yes, even worse than Ashlee Jones.

Re: Choose next seasons kit!

Another question (or two) - I personally think ditching the hoops for one season would freshen things up a bit. If we were given 4 or 5 options with no hoops in sight, would people get upset and do you think we’d sell as many shirts for a non-hooped option?

Re: Choose next seasons kit!

Just out of interest. Do you think the fans would ever vote for something other than hoops? Say hoops is option 1 whilst options 2, 3 and 4 are different variations of black and white but not hoops. Would option 1 always win?

Re: That time of the year... choose the home kit.

Good to see hoops making a return. For years we’ve had horizontal bars on the front of our shirts.

Re: Bradford PA

I thought Lewis Knight was their stand our player when we played them at Horsfall. Young, skilful, strong and pacey winger. Former Leeds youth. Definitely worth a look.

Wishing you a full and speedy recovery Liam. I listened to your commentary on Darlo Fans Radio and you sounded like a fun and intelligent fella with a lot to give. Your performances on the pitch haven’t been bad either ;)

Re: Hartlepool match confirmed at BM

It’s the first time I’ve bought tickets via the club’s website. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. Really straightforward and you can print tickets at home and/or just keep them on your phone and they’ll be scanned at the gate. Great stuff!!

People forget what we’ve achieved in a very short space of time. It’s been incredible. Fans raising over £1m, multiple promotions and a move back to the town.

Don’t think we could have got much better than Maddison on a permanent deal. He’s a good prospect with league experience and he’s local.

Re: Darlington V Chester

I predict a 1-3 defeat despite us playing against 10 men. Hat-trick for that Asante chap, representing an incredible upturn in form for a striker averaging 5 goals a season before the game. It’s just a hunch.

You can’t make a decision that affects the club’s long term future on the basis that a rule “might” change. What if the rule doesn’t change?
