Darlo Uncovered

Didn't you ask him? Mind you I bumped into a lad in a poolie shirt in Liverpool the other day, tried to speak with him and he walked away looking terrified!! Could it be something to do with the fact you are 6ft 6ins or thereabouts? A Poolie fan in our Manor DBTS? I'll keep and eye out when I am in...

I don't understand why Gaskell has split opinion? Yes he hit a bad run of form towards the end of the season, but he was also clearly carrying a knock. He was a major reason why we got promoted in my opinion. Glad to see he's signed a new contract. I am glad he has put pen to paper and has committe...

Not all bad news though. Another major sponsor to be announced, and the sun's shining. I can't see any bad news at all- a slight delay whilst finalities on funding bodies are sorted- nothing unusual about that. it was never envisaged Darlo would be starting season at Blackwell Meadows, so no harm d...

Hope we don't need to get International clearance for him when he returns!

Good to see Darlo have now officially thanked Whitey for his contribution over the his various spells with us. As Tezza has said I am sure that off the field in those last few weeks of the season he played an important part. Good luck to him and Spenny even though they are clearly still our biggest ...

Armstrong said openly he left because he wanted more first team football, and he wasn't guaranteed that next season given how competitive our striking department is. Where and when did he say that? He said it to the club's official mouthpiece Craig Stoddart in the Northern Echo, published May 2nd: ...

Am seeing if my mate Gary might be able to come, but says he is working in France I think till 10 July?

If we play any Friendlies at the Arena I will attend wearing by briefs only!

ah, Mark Bell. Nice. http://darlingtonfootballclub.co.uk/mark-bell-returns-to-darlo/ Yep Bell. At Spenny play off final it was being discussed. Makes total sense in terms of reserve keeper and anything else Bell may do at the club. Agree makes total sense, I thought he was an excellent keeper, pres...

Me and about 9,999 (or thereabouts) Darlo fans have! Have you been travelling in a time machine?

I thought it was a quite positive article despite the fact the writer made a number of very obvious statements about the past and the future. What's not to like about it apart from 4 numbers? Regards the headline were we "a successful Football League Club?"

In previous seasons I guess three in would have meant three out in the other direction. I know we need a bigger squad with better quality players this year, just hope the playing budget is affordable. It's all gone a bit quiet on the Fans fundraising and what happens next hasn't it? (Maybe this is ...

Thanks "Les" no real arguments with any one of those I would guess.

Er............who won Player of the Year please cant see anything yet on Club site?

if you take Gaskell's 2 hatricks out of the equation it means he made 23 starts for us and scored 8 goals. Add 9 sub appearances to that and he is hardly prolific is he? Am I being too harsh? Too harsh. I hate it when people use the "if you take x away from y, it just leaves z" argument to back up ...

Think Gaskell will be released if we sign who we are after. Why on earth would we release Gaskell?!? Nonsense. Because he lives & works over 2 hours away, is the wrong side of 30 & scored just once in the last 1/3 of the season. Not saying it would be the right or wrong decision but those are the f...

This thread is getting out of hand but here goes to try and present some balance....................My daughter lost her purse (it may have been stolen on the Underground) and ticket en route to Euston recently. She explained to Virgin what had happened and they provided a Travel permit WITHOUT char...

It's bollocks. See the official website: http://darlingtonfootballclub.co.uk/statement-from-darlington-manager-martin-gray/ Safe to say silly season is under way. I feel the club would have been better off just ignoring it. Now, even the most outlandish rumours will need a reply, otherwise people w...

So he is to blame for them not winning the League for 26 years!

Was thinking about this the other days as well. I reckon Kasper and Pally are the only 2 ex-Darlo players to win Premier League/Old First Division medals AFTER they played for us. I wondered about Speedie at Liverpool but not sure if they won the league when he was there? No doubt someone may recall...

Sad to see him leave, gave us something different to the rest of the strikers we have on the books. Two seasons two promotions quite an impressive feat. I wouldn't be surprised to see him leading Spennymoors forward line next season. Good luck for the future Army. Agree he offered us something diff...

I went for Chris Hunter

Glad my email reminder to the club yesterday morning worked!

Have I missed something? Have the Club asked the Fans for their nominations like last year yet? I know there was some activity on here a few weeks ago when we had about 8 games or so left, but don't recall seeing anything since.

I was stood there and clearly shouted monkey monkey, black **** and making monkey noises... The players were shooting at goal not sure if they were doing it on purpose by shooting in the crowd which got the yoofs incensed... But does not excuse the chants, to many beers on board doesn't help... Sha...

Am I being thick (I have been awake since 3am!) why does Conf. North table show 3 teams in the relegation zone and only 2 go up from our league? Is there some restructuring going on? If a Midlands-based side in the Southern Premier League (Redditch, Leamington and Kettering are in contention), they...
