Darlo Uncovered

to be fair to the 144 hardy souls they made a good bit of noise compared to vale.

i tried to walk out after we missed the pen but was escorted back in by the stewards, making sure i got my full £19 worth of pain!

take it you werent at the game today, chandler and cook 2 of the better players, porritt was poor, looks disinterested at having to play in league 2

miller caught ball watching for the vale goal instead of picking up his man, very poor bit of defending imo.

The best pie I've had was a chicken balti pie at an away ground somewhere. It was a fairly new stadium - I remember the pie I had there but not the team whose stadium it was... EDIT: I think it was Rushden & Piemonds i had a lovely lasagne at kiddermincester, their catering was done by a local butc...

The pie I get went up from £1-10 to £1-60 that's a bit above the current inflation rate of 1.8% and they're not worth it anymore. The article was written based on last years food and things have changed. Am I not allowed to give my opinion or are we only allowed to post postive replies? you are all...

pete will you give it a fucking rest, its obvious from that article that our pies were among the cheapest in the league, a 30p price rise in hardly breaking the bank what do you do when you go to the cinema? take your own packed lunch? actually, why am i even asking that question......you obviously ...

most stressful team to support.

really, really pleased for the lad, to score a goal like that vs man utd and for it to win the game are what dreams are made of

blake has done really well, flirted with the prem before, and never lost heart when his career was going thru a bit of a sticky patch.

If Sven did for Notts County what is stopping Mendieta doing it for us?

about £2m a year and massive investment

pete - can i also draw your attention to this post made by yourself before the game last night in reference to Nathan Porritt http://www.darlofc.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=728 I hope he starts off with him tomorrow night. As the side needs a lift and quickly. so does the side need a lift with a...

dont see a problem in doing an offer like that on cup games that shouldnt really impact the budget or season ticket holders. however, to piss on your chips, the JPT is that much of a nothing game that even with prices of £1 a kid and £5 an adult i still think we'd struggle to get a decent crowd in. ...

if youve decided not to go to the games and support the club, then do that, why do you feel it necessary to add to the negativity by spouting stuff like this? What good is it going to do the club? Answer me that? What do you hope to achieve? was that directed at me? because if it was then i dont ho...

i gathered that but "where are you know jimmy" means nothing to me - would anyone like to enlighten me

ive exactly the same one - will be interested to see what it goes for.

i think we'll be ok against vale, so much so im gonna drag my arse there on saturday

£18 to watch a losing side who can't score, or a monthly subscription to Sky Sports. I know which most will go for, and I don't blame them. After all, football is meant to be about entertainment and last night certainly was not entertaining. I beg to differ. Football is meant to be about supporting...

But that is two players that you can't expect to make an immediate impact as they don't know any of their team mates, which is far from ideal. If Todd is bringing in new recruits we can't expect them to turn things around overnight. why cant you make an immediate impact without knowing your team ma...

why do people feel the need to come on here with threats of non attendance? it really baffles me??!?! if i dont want to go to a game last night, i dont make a fuss about it, i just dont go, simple as that! Look at the Red Script you clown means nothing to me you fucking moron, you'll have to elabor...

non-contract forms, there ya go, we can ditch him whenever we like - which judging by past performances will be pretty soon....but its pretty much no risk.

wholesale changes?

as far as im aware there were 2 non enforced changes last night with porritt & cook coming in for smith & lumsdon. it was the second game in 3 days too, i dont see any problem

Im sorry Cameron but lee thorpe is better than kevin Gall by a long shot. Kevin gall has no strength and cant shoot. Lee thorpe was special last night i thought he played really well. he gets stuck in and he chaces the ball. Lee thrope is the only tall we have got otherwise we would have no chance ...

There are initiatives going on behind the scenes, the club are visiting schools and boys groups/guides etc to do player meets and give out tickets - this was revelead at the forums. At the moment i believe Christine Balford is back on the road trying to find new corporate sponsors for all areas of t...

Read the first line of my post again, performance is NOT the main factor here.

but we've been in the stadium 6 or 7 years now.

ah sorry, didnt even look at the shirt...im stumped then!

russell kelly ex-chelsea youngster we had, think jim platt brought him in seasons after we lost in the play-offs

no shots on target tonight :silent: Really? We've had 4 according to the stats on Quakers Player, and 6 off target. According to the Crewe commentator we're a much better side than Grimsby, particularly in midfield and attack. Light relief at least, we'll only be finishing 23rd at this rate. :oops:...

no shots on target tonight

just seen crewe's team - theyve some firepower in the squad in zola, elding and donaldson!

raj thru no fault of his own has been lumbered with the apathy of darlington fans due to year after year of let downs by the club - its not his fault but i can identify with people coming to the end of their tether no one was saying these things last seaon, and very little barring the £50 charge for...
