Re: JOE LEESLEY

It’s definitely down to budget and unfortunately won’t be signing as he is signing for another club. We’re already over budget and adding probably 30k to that isn’t a sustainable model. Very disappointing as he was a classy player and leader but the club needs to be prioritise financial stability es...

Re: Darlington V Alfreton

Looking forward to seeing their finances after a disastrous summer of recruitment. I’m sure they’ll throw some money at their relegation scrap.

It’s very confusing, we are top of the league but Spennymoor (who let’s not forget, are the pride of County Durham) are 18th and have only won 4 games.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch..

Re: Darlington V Alfreton

Brilliant result tonight, the team spirit in this side is the best it’s been since the MG era so credit to AA for that. If we can keep this group together for the remainder of the season we’re in for a fun ride. Felix has shown his commitment to the project and moved to Newcastle from Peterborough. ...

Re: Winger

He’s bizarrely played at centre back this season for Boston so hopefully he can find some form back on the wing. I’m sure Beck will enjoy linking back up with him again.

I guess the question that then arises is whether there is scope to get BM to the Step 1 criteria by next March (or at all)?
I think if not, we'd ground share with the arena until we have a ground that meets the criteria.

Both continue with Wheater on the bench, sensible decision.

Re: Diogo Barbosa

I think it is initially going to be cover for now, Moke picked up a knock against Farsley and Rose is still getting up to speed.

Re: August thoughts

Was not a fan of Sukar coming into the season, but credit to the lad, he has improved vastly now we are mixing it in the League. Obvs Wheater is class & this has rubbed off on both Sukar & Lawlor. Purver has also proved essential to our defence. Agreed, we are stretched for cover at the back but fe...

Re: Farsley August 29th 2022

Today was a frustrating one but probably understandable after the Spenny game so close. I thought all three of the subs made an impact on the game and Lawler was my man of the match. Good to see Mondal getting stuck in, looks better on the wing. Wheater was set to miss two weeks so should hopefully ...

Re: Potential new signings

By my reckoning we now have a first team squad of 16. Listening Alan’s interview he did say that our signings this season have not come cheap and the budget had been stretched a bit. Wonder if there is a change of approach this time around we are going to operate on a smaller squad, with a few less...

Mark Becks was in Newcastle I’m assuming as he was with Gillespie today (source Instagram) I feel he will go Gateshead.
They’ve been good mates since they were at Carlisle together. It’s between us and Shields for Beck.

Re: Retained list

If Beck were available it's a no brainer. Might be an over significant drop though - notice Gateshead have lost both their strikers this summer already - not sure he suits Williamson's preferred style of play mind. Defenders hate playing against him regardless of what he scores. He causes problems ...

Re: George smith departs

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Griffiths and Hedley as fullbacks with Hope and another youngster as back up.

Probably wiser using Smiths wage elsewhere in the team and get a young replacement for cover.
