Re: Josh Heaton Fulham show interest

Darlo wouldn't want to start the next campaign with Heaton & Wheatley and then lose them at some unknown point mid season. It would be better to have advance warning of any departures, to both recruit and maintain a balanced squad. I hope that DFC will obtain lucrative sell-on clauses, as our owner...

Re: Spennymoor v Bromley @ Blackwell Meadows

Don't get this. The game should have been pro-actively re-arranged ages ago with the FA stepping in. And should probably have been scheduled for New Ferens Park, Durham. This is a ground which is elligible to host an FA Trophy match (it's not a league game), and is far less at the mercy of the weat...

Re: Joe Wheatley

So no Joe Wheatley today which is concerning - according to reports he was "rested". I wonder if he has turned down a new deal or something along those lines - shame if that is so - a win against Tamworth and North Ferriby, which are two very winnable games and we could be on the verge of the playo...

Talk of bringing the seats over from Bishop. That would further improve the sight lines for spectators. Depending on costs obviously and what the future holds but could be a waste of money.

If they had gone down to ten men after ten minutes it may well have been a different story.It may well have cost us points anyway.

Re: Vaulks

if we don't have a centre back on the bench, then Vaulks should be on the bench. For such a crucial position, not to have cover on the bench is a serious mistake. Agreed, the cover we have on the bench is a bit thin at the moment. Happily, Heaton has emerged as a talented CB, O'Hanlon slotted well ...

They also play Tamworth Saturday. Telford lost four on the trot before beating Ferriby at the weekend so are not pullin...
