2 things.

Gregan looks like he's just spilled out of an all night rave.

Gray resigned to take the York job? What? Really?

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

No doubt we'll be featuring in the national press today as well. Darlo almost set a national record in the shortest reign of a manager and we had two not one as well!!

Ive had a few emails / texts off mates that have seen the BBC articles.

Although the situation is difficult there is no such thing as bad publicity.

In a peverse way its good to see Darlo are newsworthy enough to make the BBC website.A lot of people outside of Darlo that I run into down here in Manchester still see us as a league club.

Can't understand our guy leaving when he had a good job till the end of the season and possibly beyond. Someone might remind him he might not get his JSA if he leaves without just cause.

Think Darlington are positively slow in taking 4 or 5 days to get rid of manager(s).

Torquay sacked Leroy Rosenior after 10 minutes in the role https://www.theguardian.com/football/20 ... ory.sport5


That is absolute madness

He has a job though. I am pretty sure Sean Gregan is as much an employee of MGFA - maybe he doesn't have a FT contract there either and just helps out?

I would hope he has sufficient savings from his previous playing career to mean he was excluded from JSA entitlement

Perhaps it is a zero-hours contract? ;)
