Darlo Uncovered

And Gray was un-sackable, so the only pressure he would have felt was from himself, unlike now.

Edit !

Here are four more (Schadenfreude!) "We were 5th when Mills got the sack. Look at us now." "Hoofing it up to Parkin will not win matches" "Total rubbish from start to finish never again." "This team is the laughing-stock of football. Almost unbelievable descent into obscurity. The new manager said t...

We lost, but I enjoyed the game and thought we played well.

Also, is Big Tim 'The Phantom Flare Thrower Of Olde Darlo Town" ??

Pete, the new posters you were enquiring about are all selling Viagra on the Off Topic board!!

From what I read in today's echo looks like Cartman won't have a partner. Described his favourite formation as 4-1-4-1 keep good Shape out of possession and as soon as you win back possession look to attack with pace down the wings and in behind the CB's. If that's true looks like we'll start: Bart...

Caton is now the chosen target, he gets far too much criticism .

Beck is missing too.

Red. Nothing else is acceptable.

Fee was agreed but Beck did fail a medical. Beck will be a York player as soon as the injury has cleared up. York are not going to pay us £25k - £30k for an injured player who can't play for them immediately, from their perspective it only makes sense for the injury to clear up before proceeding. Y...

He's scored once all season. And looked shite. If York come in with any sort of offer at all, take it and save on the wages. Let's not roll over to the mighty York City - let them pay top whack for Beck, or keep him, to be possibly moved on later. That should give Beck a little impetus to get fit a...

Will Gray have to get his signings rubber stamped or is he all powerful?

He obviously wanted him, and Beck by (having a medical) would seem to want to go.

What a coincidence.

Personally, I'd like to see how far the club can go without investment. I don't subscribe to the feeling from a seeming majority of fans that we've gone as far as we can without investment, or have hit a celing. I'm certain that we can get to the next level, be it in 2 year or 5 years. I'm saddened...

Invest/Verb (with object) 1) put (money) into financial schemes, shares, property, or a commercial venture with the expectation of achieving a profit: So bearing this in mind, before we go any further can someone explain where the profit might come from?? Because I can't see any profit available in ...

I picked up a little gem from Gray at his initial press conference after taking up the York job - I"m sure it was from there, although might have been from a recent radio thing.

By memory he says 'it's not about the money, it's about giving something back to the city'

He is a card!

They did alright I reckon.

Gray's last three games in charge produced two losses and a draw whilst B + T managed a win, a draw and a loss.

Not forgetting - Gray is a managerial genius and had Ferguson playing too.

"Shockingly bad performance" "An insult to call them professional footballers,utter garbage" "Totally embarrassing performance" "OMG Whatever has happened to our football team" "Gutless performance" "We HAVE to get the ball down" Some of the York fans' comments after their defeat to Salford. And th...

White wasn't a major figure at Spenny so it's not the end of the world to them. Not at all. White's been given a chance to step up his job prospects by quite a degree, surely Spennymoor wouldn't want to stand in his way. I didn't mind Ferguson leaving TBH. He got the chance to be a Pro player again...

Yeah, I've noticed that. I seem to have no bother

I think the fall-out at nuneaton is due to the way wright handled his departure while the spenny backlash is because of the lack of contact from our club to groves. York sacking their manager after their cup loss has created a domino effect which now Nuneaton and Spennymoor have been brought into -...

Wright and White. I bet there'll be more fun in the changing room at half time than there was with old misery guts Gray.

Sounds good. I like it!

Jamoy wrote:Alan White will be the new manager.

Joking aside, A.W. would probably make a good manager.

As a player he gave it his all (sometimes too much ) but off the field he seemed polite and courteous. He's also been in football as a Pro for ages, which equals lots of experience.

I disagree -it's not northerly enough.

Hardy would be the obvious name. Technically Whitby isn't in the NE, but I think most people do count the NE as stretching into Yorkshire. It's either Hardy or someone from the Northern League - no idea who's good in that league, and who simply has money. Won't be Ainsley or Picton/Fenton, won't be...

If Whitby isn't in the North East - where is it?
