Darlo Uncovered

TW won 21 (30%) of his 71 NLN games before leaving: AA I believe only has Joe Wheatley left from TW days and has also won 21 (38%) of his 55 NLN games so there is a slight improvement over the last couple of seasons; but I have resigned myself to a bottom half of the table finish with only our NE ne...

Thought we started well enough and it was not a surprise when we took the lead through KDS. However, once Leamington equalised they raised their game and were much more competitive. Whether their goal was offside or not I was not in a position to see but the defenders certainly seemed to be expecti...

Surprised to read this given we had Purver, Mondal and Rose as unused subs on Saturday! Judging by some of her/his previous posts, I think it's fair to say eddie-rowles doesn't rate Mondal. Spot on signed 5 months ago, believes he should be playing alot higher but AA & DH have not seen enough to st...

Apart from Nelson and Lambert the bench is not that strong and interested in how Cooper , Ellis and Storey fit in next week? Surprised to read this given we had Purver, Mondal and Rose as unused subs on Saturday! Judging by some of her/his previous posts, I think it's fair to say eddie-rowles doesn...

A draw against hereford and Chorley probably fair result so one point better off. Saying that enjoyed Chorley game(long drive) despite defeat (stayed dry and didn't piss down) all players worked hard and supported each other yes we could have scored a few more if certain players had more composure(b...

They all caught the vibes from Spennymore

or was it Evenwood?

Enjoyed Saturdays result and and despite Hereford on top for most of the second half we managed the game out, something AA has asked for. Charman had a a couple of further chances to score but didn't quite get the touch he required. Cassidy won everything in the air but not sure the plan because nei...

Was wondering who he was at Telford game as was involved in warm up, now we know good luck to him, hoping he is more Will Hatfield that mondal.

I think looking at records over the last season or two has probably been rendered meaningless because of the circumstances. The disruption caused last season where games were played in empty stadiums and we had played hardly any games compared to others made it a pointless exercise looking at our r...

Good result but Telford were poor but still managed to hit the post and bar and Taylor made a great save in the dying seconds so could have been 3-3, one swallow doesn't make a summer and need to beat Hereford before I start thinking of moving into top half of table.

Having watched the highlights, again you can't be happy at the goals we conceded. The first I'm not really sure what Purver is doing or what his role is, he either has to be taking responsibility for trying to block the cross as the first man or drop back further and get infront of O'Donnell with G...

Understand DFC academy played Chesterfield yesterday lost a high scoring game 5-3 surely we can acknowledge these lads endeavours on twitter or webpage etc as we have a full time member of staff onboard. I know it was disappointing the FA Cup game with Blyth earlier but dont ignore these lads as wom...

This was the same man last year on BBC Tees sport complaining he was losing tens of thousands of pounds every week because people in his care homes were dying of Covid. I was sickened to the stomach and so very disappointed the BBC tees reporter did not pull him up on that but continued to gush wit...

https://darlingtonfc.co.uk/news/curzon-ashton-incident-club-decision Well done to the individual apologised and admitted he made a mistake and took his punishment, I was at the game but followed the ball and did not observe what happened. For those many easily identified individuals who ran on the p...

I can assure you there are no “tantrums” happening with me and secondly it’s interesting that just because you’ve decreed Lo to be a liar, he is one. You’ve bunged in a few legal sounding phrases and declared yourself a winner, congrats! However, that aside, I stand by what I said about feeling pol...

Is it just me or is anyone else thinking that this rebuild is not going well? We have lost a lot of talent this close season and looking at the squad I'm not yet convinced the signings we have made will adequately replace those that have left, never mind the number we have on the books currently. P...

Think this could be very much a pivotal performance in the diary, get a win with a good home crowd and could be turning point of the season; failure here along with minimal league points and can see AA call it a day,

The alarming bit in AA's interview was when he said: "We went into training on Thursday looking to change it but we didn't get the right attitude from certain players so we didn't change it." That doesn't sound good at all. It doesn't give the impression of harmony. That was the impression I got bu...

I think we all knew this squad was weaker than last season. We lost quality in the likes of Campbell and Sousa. We seem to have brought in poorer players in all areas. I am going to posit that our defensive problems are only partly down to difficulties in finding the right players though, part of t...

6 wins and 1 draw from 7 games in preseason including wins over Newcastle Middlesbrough and Notts Co. Just goes show a good preseason does not necessarily lead to the form carrying into the league season. Hope the reverse is true for us. Personally I think we're in for a tough few weeks, not becaus...

Great honesty from all the panel and would like to thank them for the hard work. compared to other local NE clubs our fans have far more insight and influence than any other club. Well done

Are we expecting that Beeden / Storey will be behind another CB in the pecking order? I think we are looking at that, yes. Without panicking too much over pre-season, some of the goals & chances conceded have been all too easy, just like last season and the season before. Whilst pre-season is predo...

Believe the authorities are slowly heading in the right direction

Strange situation and one I cannot ever remember that our season is effectively based on a throw of the dice by the manager in waiting to the last minute to bring in the quality players the team clearly needs. Get them and we should be ok, don’t get them and we will really struggle. Only worry for ...

It is only our third friendly and second that most played with each other so still some getting to know each other, kept Harrogate in first half to one superb free kick, our three in Midfield good. However once the second one went in the defence did crumble and reverted to long balls forward when un...

Yes some forward line up at York and a target man for Charman ,ight just work from time to time , York who are still throwing loads of money to get out this league on paper very strong. However there were some good young lads playing for Newcastle U23's who could do a good job on loan if AA inclined,

It was a very encouraging performance, with some great individual displays. Thought Beeden at the back looked excellent, no idea where he is from or if we've signed him. I thought the scoreline didn't reflect the balance of the game & we count ourselves very unlucky to lose. lexus signed yes, origi...

Both looking as fit as a butchers pencil.looking forward to us guessing who is on trial Saturday and next Tuesday and hopefully club clear up Jamie Holmes position is he in/out or shaking it all about Is a Butcher's pencil fit? Surely it just lies around, doing very little, surrounded by meat. Yes ...
