Agree - we can't really point anywhere outside of Darlington FC.
The circumstances of our ground move, financial challenges, boardroom changes and stretched resource are mitigating factors, and make any potential oversight quite understandable in my book. They do not mitigate from a third parties perspective though.
I think the positives which will hopefully come of this;
- There will be a clear "if you want it pay for it" drive for the next round of fundraising. Hopefully means we can hit the target in good time and if we don't there is no-one else to blame.
- Hopefully appeals for resource will be answered. I still truly believe we can operate on a volunteer model. We just need to operate more smartly - do we even have an organisational structure and defined roles & responsibilities? (

- We are clearly competitive in this division, it is just a matter of time before we can get back into the Conference. I don't for a second believe this is our one shot at glory.
