Darlo Uncovered

I wonder why he have been allocated Harrogate for our Xmas double header as opposed to York. If I am not mistaken do we not choose who we play over the Xmas double header? If we had played York it would have been a waste of what would already have been a high attendance. Do we? I figured the league...

Brodie has proven quality and is a goal scorer. Providing he is on trial with us I'd be more than happy to see us give him a chance. He's also consistently unfit, has a questionable professionalism off the pitch and is pretty much guaranteed at least a yellow a game for mouthing off to the ref abou...

Fenwick, surely?

Wouldn't be so sure about York, seem to be losing more players than was expected after the drop and a few who we're expected to sign have yet to commit. Only signed two so far in Rankine as backup for Parkin and a 34 year old keeper from Bradford PA. I'm sure they'll be up in the top 10 somewhere by...

York City have released Oyebanjo, Fenwick and Lappin. With us looking for a forward I can see us going for Fenwick having enquired about him in the past. - Injuries have pretty much done for Oyebanjo, could well be the end of him at any kind of serious competitive level. - Lappin is also injured lo...

Hopefully that rules out York going in for Beck then, although I do think the chances of keeping him are still slim. Scott Fenwick also looks set to be released by York who would be a replacement for Beck. Wouldn't be so sure about Fenwick, he's been kept on at York despite doing very little as the...

He does love the sound of his own voice a bit doesn't he?

Doesn't look like York will come calling. Mills has signed a contract for 17/18. Mills was always going to stay, doubt MG has had his head turned by them. Can't really see where else he could go in the immediate future though. Unless he fancies going for the job with the kitten-stampers up the road...

He came in and did a job well enough and now his contract has come to an end he's decided to try his luck at full-time. No issue with that.

It's not as if he was a standout performer, we don't have cover or he fucked the club off in any way. Best of luck to him.

It's more where Diane Abbott expects to find the £7 billion from to fund it that's the issue. I'll be honest that is the least of my question marks over Diane Abbott. True, though by her standards the fact that you said that now means you're a woman hating racist. Still find it odd that Conservativ...

Sorry I haven't read the manifesto, but I perhaps wrongly assumed that student loans would be coming to an end. Tuition fees and student loans are different. Tuition fees are paid to the Uni to teach them, student loans are the money they're given to live on and buy study materials (in theory at le...

Martin has been with us since the start of all this. I'd have hoped he, if anyone, would understand that financial stability and transparency are at the very heart of what we're trying to achieve here. We must be very careful in whom we take investment from, and Singh rang far too many alarm bells a...

I'm open to outside investment provided it's transparent and from a reputable source. This is neither as far as I'm concerned. Wouldn't trust Singh as far as I could throw him, he's almost overseen the death of this club once before so what exactly is his end game here? Too much risk attached and to...

You always need an effective opposition, unfortunately under Corbyn Labour aren't delivering. Perhaps after the election and Corbyn's gone, the they may elect someone to bring Labour out of the cold. Andy Burnham would be my choice, though it seems Labour are determined to stick with the likes of C...

If we're talking about new players. We need to move on 1 keeper, 3 is too many. One of Hunter, Brown or Burgess to go to be replaced by an experienced CB. If we can get Portas and Falkringham on contracts for next seasons then move Scott on. Hopefully get Cartman tied up to a new contract. If Beck ...

Said it before but I've lived in York for a few years now and one of my mates is a season ticket holder so I've seen a fair bit of them. Looks like the manager will be staying (a cult figure through here) and murmurings are a few of the key players (Jon Parkin, Sean Newton, Danny Parslow) will follo...

Reminder that your voting for your local MP, not leader of the country. A mistake loads of people keep saying. "I can't vote for Corbyn" , good news is that your not . (Unless you live in his constituency of course ) Fair point, though my Labour candidate is Rachel Maskell. She makes Corbyn look ce...

Have to give it to Theresa May for timing. She knows Labour will drag every bit of Brexit negotiation as much as they can under the guise of it 'not being the Brexit people voted for'. Now they have to contest a general election in eight weeks with a massively unpopular leader with an equally unpopu...

This team we have now would not get thumped every week. More than capable of competing at the lower end of the conference. There would not be money available to strengthen the team if we succeeded in promotion but then there is no need to strengthen the team either if we remain in this league and d...

Another few that come to mind. Clayton Fortune. Solid as quicksand, Stevie Wonder could read tge gane better. Think he's still around in the National League South somewhere. Adam Proudlock. Probably not the worst ability wise, but was always about 2 stone overweight and a bit of a twat. Stephen Thom...

Ashlee Jones. He got one game when we lost at Notts County and I've never seen anything like it before or since. Phil Stamp was a better keeper.

Craig 'fucking' James is up there as well.

short of getting huge sums of TV money or silly amounts in sponsorship, then season ticket sales are only real income any club has of its expected income for the next season Says the Spennymoor fan....

And call me principled but I'd walk away for good. with your user name, you could not really say anything else Any chance you could do the same? As for all this 'Piegate' bollocks, does it really matter? He knew of the bet, so he either eats a pie and influences it or doesn't and still influences i...

having seen him play at Southport and Aldershot in recent seasons.... he is complete pony and has an attitude. We'd do well to avoid Yep, posted in another topic about him but have seen most of his season at York. He's massively unfit with no intention of ever getting so, and is guaranteed at least...

Off the top of my head. I'm sure there are plenty more.

Kyle Lafferty

All did well with us and went on to better things.

If its a forward, what about Scott Fenwick, sure he is at York, ex Poolie and Durham City. Sent from my XT1032 using Tapatalk Could well be. Played when they lost 3-1 at Whitby last week. Manager was fuming and said some of the lads who played would be shipped out ASAP. Been out of favour for a whi...

Well unlike everyone else, I'd sign Brodie in a flash. I remember watching him play against us for Crawley and he was just quality. He just had a great presence about him. OK that was a few years ago, and noe he's apparently unfit, but sometimes clubs rescue players from oblivion and the players ge...

Said before, but I'm York based these days and have seen a fair bit of them over the last couple of seasons so here's what I've seen of Brodie. First of all, he's VERY unfit. Think McNulty or Parkin size with a repuation for being seen munching on a pie and a pint rather than trying to actually impr...

Home 1, Away 2.

Home 4 is particularly bloody awful.

They must be on a par with Div 2 prices surely, far too high for this level. Sent from my XT1032 using Tapatalk Definitely on par with the league above, but they offer hugely discounted season tickets to their fans which will be subsidised by large away followings (Stockport, FCUM, Darlo, Harrogate...
