Darlo Uncovered

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...

Good point it probably was a factor. Hope the likely resurgence of Newcastle Utd won’t lead to more young fans being lured up the A1 to Geordieland. As with any club who is bought out by money bags owners, I'd urge the geordies to be careful what they wish for the grass isn't always greener. Bad en...

Good three points and another Charman goal. Well done lads.

So strangulated umbilical hernia op. He doesn't want grapes, just 3 points. Get well soon and let's do it.

TFFT At least we now know it's fixed. Get well soon Alun.

Sounds ominous. You don't get "rushed" into hospital for something that's not serious. All the best Alun, but sounds like it could be a while. :( Sounds like it could be a while based on what knowledge exactly? Had the club quote said "admitted to hospital", then I could have accepted precautionary...

Yeah, got it in my emails. Done and done. Obviously been a fair bit of moaning about the hoops. Generally, I agree we should be in hoops, but I really like the sash this year and to be fair to Joma, I think they've done a cracking job. I think the sash or the single hoop/band is a nice compromise f...

Replay Tuesday

0-0 and by the commentary, unlikely to change

After the last two years, enthusiasm for ANY football, of any level is thoroughly understandable.

And you're clearly jumping for joy.

At my age I don't do a great deal of actual jumping, but my heart has made a few leaps in the last week.

Away win at Brackley, reserves / fringe players win big in DCC, what can we whinge about now? :roll: I'm not sure where this sudden burst of enthusiasm for the DCC has come from? Apart from when we played Hartlepool a couple of years ago nobody seemed fussed. After the last two years, enthusiasm fo...

He's referred to as a "new signing" in the match report on the official site

Jake Cooper - hope he is more like Terry Cooper than Tommy Cooper. Let us give the lad a chance
(Young 'uns won't get these references - tough, Google them)

Just like that

https://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/19561630.hartlepool-chairman-raj-singh-lessons-learnt-darlington-spell/ Agree with some of what he says, as darlington could well gone bust before they did if he never took over. He will be public enemy in darlington for a long time yet but he seems to have r...

As if things weren't bad enough, with every game played any potential new recruit will look at us and think 'nah, dont fancy that'

Look on the bright side. Any half decent CB would be an instant hero.

Still not as bad as Gloucester today. 9-0 down against Chorley.

We need some points before Goal Difference counts for anything

A cunning plan won't help. Baldric isn't tall enough for a CB :roll: :lol: Perhaps one of the dustbins used in training may be enough, a wheelie bin would be more mobile of course. Either way, come on you Quakers & stuff BPA! Just been to the bookies, and got 8/1 about the wheelie bins winning 1-0 ...

Read the last two posts on his thread, and put them together (sorry, couldn't figure out how to put seperate quotes in one post), and there could be a promising future at CB.

Charman off injured in first half

I cannot get commentary but report on Club site says after going 2 nil down "Quakers responded by replacing Charman with Purver" so that suggests a tactical move?

The commentators said Charman just looked knackered, came back too soon from Covid

Really looking forward to match today, weather great a few beers what can possibly go wrong

Beware. Famous Last Words.

That it's twenty years ago today since the last time Darlo beat Pools. Where the hell has that time gone, I can remember the game (and others) as if it was only last week !! Still looking forward to the next encounter, preferably by you lot coming up rather than us coming down. Just think how many ...

Time to move back to The Arena, at least you can get a pint anytime, stay dry and have a good view of the game. Also increased hospitality revenue available to peruse. Pathetic You've been crying on about your beloved Arena on here since 2014 . Anyway it's all irrelevant as I've heard from a high u...

Damn, we've dropped to 17th, but guess who's bottom o the league.

If the shirts are a bit tight, join in at the training sessions rather than beer sessions

Is there a difference?

Yes

Second Covid outbreak in the squad within a month. Either we’re incredibly unlucky, or something is going wrong with our protocols. These lads are part time, and have other jobs & contacts elsewhere. It only needs one to pick up the virus and pass it on at training or in car lifts etc. It may be pr...

Darlo currently in 11th position without kicking a ball.
