Darlo Uncovered

FT Chorley 2 York 2, Southport 1 Leamington 1, Kettering 0 Guiseley 2, we drop to eighth, could have been worse for us.

Chorley equalise against York very early in 2nd half

Proper YoYo night, Southport score so we're back down to 9th

Now Guiseley score & we're back up to 8th

Phantom Flashscores excepted, York gone 1 up

and as things stand, we drop to 9th

"What if" I'd won the Lottery, paid for our own ground, financed our turning full time, and bought 49% of the shares in the club? Just checked my ticket & I've won a free lucky dip. Re-read the above and insert "next week"

Saving up all our scoring penalties for the play-offs?

At first glance I read this to be "Hall of Shame"

I can think of a few nominees to put in that bracket, mainly previous owners and chairmen.

Be quite a task picking out the No.1 though.

Three guesses who I wish to nominate?

The beer in the ground is freezing, it was John Smith's and some larger, but far too cold to drink and enjoy. Parking outside Next and M&S is free on a night I understand and quicker to get out than the clubs parking (,on Saturday you have to buy something for a ,£5 in one of the shops and get rece...

Just as well we don't have a midweek game, commentary said Wheater looked knackered after half an hour. He did last 90 mins, but commentator said he'd be stiff as a board in the morning. Well done David.

What is the bottom of the pyramid that a club like us could get to it we kept getting relegated every season. Is it the wearside league? Raj Singh might know about this.... Nah........Raj knows about getting back into the Football League now That just means he will drop them in the sh1t from a grea...

Good man or woman for researching that so no mention of the Arena? The Arena is a housing estate in waiting ;) What a great idea. Move the Feethams Estate to the Arena, rebuild Feethams and take the Tinshed back to it's true home. Simples. :D :roll: You know what, your suggestion is so far beyond a...

Got to be happy with a point when you loose 2 defenders during the game with injury, great character to come back twice

And a goal for O'Neill, which could do him a power of good.

Here's one for the real oldies amongst us, old fashioned 2-3-5 formation: Tony Moor John Peverell Brian Keeble Ray Yeoman Ron Greener Joe Jacques Neil Wainwright Bobby Cummings Lance Robson Alan Sproates Harry Kirk We will not see there like again. :D :roll: Wainwright might feel a bit like "Back t...

We will not see there like again.

We made their number 4 look like Pirlo today. The second half was crying out for something different like Mondal. Listening to Aluns post match interview, yes we missed some chances, but we didn’t dominate the game and didn’t deserve to win. Like the Kettering game a 0-0 would have been a fair resu...

Always assumed that most of the familiar chants date back to the 1960s but that could be because that is when I started going to football matches. Does anyone know if some of them have earlier origins? Wasn't as far back as the sixties, but I think the "Barry" song was probably the most original I'...

It’ll all end in tears and I can’t fucking wait to witness it after the way they’ve went on making out that Raj is the Messiah.

He's not the Messiah, he's just a very naughty boy

If we play like that on a ploughed field, do we need to dig up the drainage at BM?

Can’t let these anti-science remarks pass with comment. Scientists don’t run the country, they provide analysis, to the best of their knowledge on the situation and predictions as to what will happen under various assumptions. Without modern science and technology, medical or otherwise, we would at...

Will leave the weather forecasting to Pete and he has not yet given his Christmas forecast. Don’t think Pete is a member of the SAGE Committee so I doubt he will be able to predict the Covid situation but I suspect more restrictions are likely soon after Christmas. Already behind close doors in Wal...

Definition of 'earn your corn' earn your corn [British] to be successful and therefore justify the money that has been spent, for example on training The back four got us through the match. They earned their corn against Middlesbrough and that's why we came off with a win. Thought this was pretty wi...

What a result, did not expect that.

Why not?

Treat 'em like turkeys, stuf 'em at Christmas, gone by New Year.

Bit of light relief from all the comfusing serious stuff. When you see TV adverts which involve people - usually towards the younger end of the age spectrum - watching football on TV, they are oftn shown wearing their club shirts. Does anyone 'dress up' to watch Darlo games on Quaker TV or other cl...

Look at these 2021/22 Super 50/50 Draw stats so far this season! 👏👏👏 https://twitter.com/DarloFCSG/status/1452253502265348101 During 2019/20 we were tracking cash prize pots at between £700 and £900 per home game. Biggest win was £909 that season. Average this season is £18 off a grand... 😯 Super 5...

Gone as far as we can being a fan owned club. Can think of a few foreign clubs that are fan owned & did quite well for a while. Barcelona & Bundesliga clubs have shown what can be achieved (but I will settle for a competitve team with spirit, playing in our own stadium within Darlington BC boundary...
