Darlo Uncovered

Make sure you wake her with a thunderous fart.

How would we benefit if his contract was renewed?

I was at the Scarborough game. It was 3rd Jan or something and my programme melted. It was not long after Alan Murray had taken over from Billy boy. We did indeed lose 3-0. Don't know if that was the red cards match. There was one game there under Hodgy where we lost 4-1 and had 2 sent off.

Welcme back Ginge. I used to look forward to your updates last year and was just thinking about when you'd return the other day. This officially means that the promotion run in has started.

There's compelling evidence to show that England's players are massively fatigued when it comes to the end of the season. At the 2002 and 2010 World Cups, we didn't score a single goal in the second half of a match - suggesting players are tired. Indeed it's something Sven Goran Eriksson and Fabio C...

I'm sure that in the 85-86 season we had such a backlog that we ended up playing 5 times a week in the last week, and we actually got dispensation to play on the Tuesday night after the season had ended on the Saturday (we played Blackpool I think). The fact is that in this country non-league teams ...

Is there anything in the fact that as another club played him without clearance, then we didn't get the book thrown at us?

With Neil it's more likely to be a few pints of the old Öl.

I was just thinking the other day that we have now plyead in Divisions 2,3,4 of the football league and tiers 1,3,4 and 5 of the non-league pyramid. If we go up we'll have played in 8 tiers of English football and we've now played in 7. Not counting phoenix clubs, is this the most tiers played in by...

some people still not happy but the club are going into bm.

By neighbour they are part of.the rugby club and far enough up.the ladder to say so

Great news then and ta for the info.

Is that a bit of inside information monica, or just conclusion drawing from the tweets.

So 2 quick questions really.

1. If we only raised enough money to get BM up to C grading, and all goes through as expected, how much extra to get it to B grading (think this has to be done by April, right?

2. If point 1 is correct, how the hell do we raise the extra money?

Yes, that pissed me off too.
And that manager who swears all the time. What a bell end.

Salford might not come out of it smelling of roses next week either. The clips of their new managers from Ramsbottom showed them to be rather thuggish and aggressive.

Someone said a few weeks ago though that any semblance of a Plan B, i.e. that we were talking to Mowden at all about the Arena, might be a bit of leverage to give us a bargaining chip. This may be what this is about, what with talks with DRFC being scheduled for tomorrow.

Am I the only one who isn't massively fussed where we play in Darlo as long as it's relatively comfortable and does the job. All this stuff about the Arena being soulless, Eastbourne having a running track so it would be dull etc. Surely the most important thing is having our team in our town.

Is that speculation or do you know something about the terms?

Fair enough, but 'get the money ' does not assume that dfc would use it, it could equally mean that Bishop get the money, and use it and I hardly think that one post by one fan would end up with us being evicted (well, unless Ted returned to spout more of his drivel).

Yes that's what I meant, and clearly you understood, so really it serves no purpose to patronise me, apart from to try to make yourself appear clever.

Jenny Chapman's tweet is worrying in 2 ways, firstly, it appears that BM is not going well, and secondly, that we haven't got a Plan B. Someone said a few weeks ago, confirmed by Wizardofos, that the situation at BM had changed because they are running as an amateur team now, so they don't want us i...

As Neil says, at least we know they're talking now.
Encouraging that she says 'The club will move back to town, it's just taking longer than we thought'. I do hope this means Blackwell Meadows, mind you.

That's a great pub Colin. One of the few places where you can get Timothy Taylor's Best Bitter, an amazing session bitter.

I rather think that was a satirical post which was missed. One giant whooooosh.

I feel an infinite regression coming on.

Would someone please clear this up once and for all by walking their dog up to Blackwell Meadows and infilitrating any negotiations.

Nowakowski won't be seen for a while, fractured cheekbone apparently.

Zorro the second perhaps?

Salford's draw will have serous ramifications on FCUM. Expect them to lose half their first team plus their manager now.

Dont know how many times we will have to say this there would be nothing stopping us from taking promotion at HP as long as we could show that by April the following year the ground would comply with conference north ground grading rules Yes, but then we'd have to improve Bishop's ground for them i...

Don't be too sure that one side 'walking away from negotiations' means an end to it all. It is a well known negotiating tool to walk away and wait for the other side to come back. In an earlier thread I likened this process to selling a house. Someone puts an offer in which is low, you reject it and...

Agreed Poppyfield. Will be a right pain when we're playing at home at Eastbourne Sports Complex


...........I'll get me coat!
