Re: Spennymoor V Darlington

Anyway, on to the match, I'll snap your hands off for a point here. As long as we can follow up by beating Blyth (who are shite) and Peterborough Sports.

7 points from 3 would set us up very nicely for Rushall away.

Why? Did they install the lights in that stand?

Remember, that stand is ours.

Re: Moke gone

Hopefully the first of many! Huge clear out needed Quite interesting. Under Armstrong and Howling I’d agree a mass clear out was needed. Under Watson I’m not so sure. We’ll still need to swap out 5 or 6, but the improvement from lots of the squad warrants a bit more thought. I'd agree. Suddenly the...

He was part of one of the worst performing squads in decades.

Re: Darlo V Scunthorpe

I'd take a point if you offered me it right now.

Follow that up with another point at Spendy, then beat Blyth (who are shite) and Peterborough Sports (is that a sports shop or something?) and that'd be a nice haul.

I daren't even dream about beating Scunthorpe.

The real deal is having a manager who is just down to knowing the basics required to win games. Not over complicating things and a million miles from what JG was attempting to do.

Re: Darlington v Banbury 2/03/24

Completely agree. Given we seem to have 1 fully fit CH, why can’t we be told from the manager what the injury situation and Sukar loan situations are. Beyond me and very frustrating. Does it need spelling out for you? Sukar isn't rated. Otherwise we'd have recalled him. And as happened yesterday, B...

Re: Curzon V Darlington

I know Curzon always seem to get the better of us, but it is worth pointing out that their current positon in the league (9th) is mainly atrtibutable to their away form (W8 D6 L4). Their last two away matches were a 0-0 at FC Service Station and a 1-0 win at Scunny. At home they are far less consis...

Players are going out on loan but the ones we have tried to get have chosen other clubs in better positions. Even players who want to get themselves in the shop window are choosing other options.

Win our home matches - barring Scunthorpe and Chorley, and there are several places away where we're capable of going and winning. 6 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats sees us home and dry. Not that we should even be in this position anyway, that's thanks to Clowning wasting easy home match after easy home...

Hopefully that will give him a massive shot of confidence because he came on an...

It is genuinely sad to see Nelson such a shadow of his former self. In his first spell he was electric, but genuine misfortune with injuries has ruined him. Living off a very good loan spell from around five years ago. Done very well to even be playing again after his injuries, but he’s not up to i...
