Re: Darlo Uncovered Fund

Is there a minimum you can open a standing order for? I am still extremely short of ready funds but want to do something, however small, to hopefully help us stay afloat. I was thinking about £5 a month for this and another £5 a month on the weekly draw. Cheers.

It's that simple. In other words, we're fucked. Cheers for that Quakerz. Thud! Is that the sound of us hitti...

Re: Fans Forum 12th June

A big factor in this must, even before a ball is kicked in anger, be season ticket sales, surely? The prices are higher than last season so we should be bringing in extra revenue from equal sales as last time. Does anyone know how sales are going? If we require an extra 130 or so spectators per game...

If it's even available and a reasonable rental deal and the sums add up, then it's the best, quickest, and only blue square north graded route back into town.

We are simply going to have to go back there for a while, IF we are able to.
