Re: Darlington v Buxton
Where’s Windass, ? Anyone. Not that he’s a big miss, just someone else on the wage bill I suppose. Gone I think He trained last week , not sure if things have changed now Squad looks really thin at the minute with the amount of injuries , I’m really surprised we haven’t got anyone in on loan as yet

Re: Darlington v Buxton
Another really insightful update! Again no mention of new signings or clarification on injuries - I find it staggering that these questions aren’t asked. SW appears the type of straight talking manager who would say it exactly as it is so surely just ask ? Or do we really think that keeping this inf...

Re: Boston v Darlington 20/02/24
I see Siddik went off with a hamstring injury tonight. It appears he missed 9 months in 22/23 with a serious hamstring injury whilst at Crystal Palace. Another player who cannot stay fit. Thank you, Josh Gowling. This season has been one big - totally unavoidable - nightmare. And apparently Sukar i...

Re: Blaine Rowe
Really poor from our side - I always thought that clubs agree when a signing will be announced ?
We seem so far off the mark with keeping fans informed it’s crazy , fan engagement at an all time low for me

Re: Darlington v Alfreton 10/02/24
I’d go with as close to the same side and shape that comprehensively beat Hereford
Siddick in for Lawlor if Lawlor is out and maybe Barrow in for Hedley - the rest id keep the same unless we can somehow add a winger or two before Saturday

Great signing, highly regarded at Gateshead and York before his recent injuries. Mitch Hancox could be the next through the door, a Watson signing for York and looks like his loan will end at Hartlepool on the 6th. Can he bring Cedric Main with him too - must have played at Blyth under Terry Mitche...

Re: Who next?
There's zero evidence to suggest that Martin Gray has the skillset required in our current situation. He succeeded when he had the biggest, or one of the biggest budgets in the division, while he was supported by a scout who had huge knowledge of the local non League game in Harry Dunn. He's not wo...

Re: Gloucester (A)
On a separate note, I’ll never understand the meltdown when Sukar gets dropped. Lawlor is better, no matter what people want to say, so it’s a no brainer he comes in. It was a no brainer to play Burton when we had him too. Probably since people were praising Gowlings handling of Sukar and how the p...

You mean dropping poorly performing players? And trying to sell them? We’ve got to judge the manager on actual events no...

Re: Darlington V Rushall
We have taken 8 points from 6 games - an average of 1.333 points per game
If we can keep this up over the next 26 games that would give us 50 points - would that keep us up ?
We can’t afford to be throwing points away like we have this week though
