Re: FA Cup replays scrapped from R1 in 24/25
Big piece about this in the telegraph from Peterborough management. Saying that to change it. all EFL clubs and all other clubs need to write to Emirates who sponsor the cup .also saying players who came through the lower leagues and now earning in excess of 80,000 a week should help by doing the s...

Re: Once the dust settles...
Staying put still doesn't answer the issue about non match day income, or getting all the matchday income that we raise without having it syphoned off to pay the landlords.

Re: FA Cup replays scrapped from R1 in 24/25
As above. No FA cup replays from R1 next season. Seems to be a decision from the Premier League despite them not being involved in those rounds. Terrible for smaller teams throughout the pyramid who can make a fortune from earning replays at higher placed team grounds. Surely there needs to be addi...

Re: So who do you want to be relegated Blyth or Farsley>
The Tyne tunnel is not an issue any more since they took away the toll booths.
I’m hoping both Blyth and Farsley survive due to Rushall getting the push due to the lack of completed ground improvements

Probably his goal return isn’t good enough for a striker at a higher level?

Re: Darlington V Southport
Brilliant performance today, we made an in form side look very ordinary. Never heard the MOTM or crowd announced as per usual. But in my humble opinion I thought Tom Platt was immense and deserved MOTM, although Cedric Main was terrific as well. Crowd looked around 1800, hopefully we'll get over 20...

Re: Easter Monday at Warrington Town
Just on the topic of Warrington players becoming a bit heated. Their keeper and one of the defenders were having a very heated argument at the end of the first half. A few choice words exchanged and team mates had to separate them. With regards to their keeper, hes impressed me both times we have p...

Re: Asante Starts
I honestly hope the bloke gets another chance and proves everyone wrong. There is no doubt that a fit Asante can be a massive asset to the club.
Getting on his back does no good whatsoever despite the fact he hasn't proven his worth yet.

Re: Easter Monday at Warrington Town
Anyone see/hear what went off with their player Clarke? The lads had words through first half with an Darlo fan on the far side and it looked like at the end of game the Darlo fan tried to shake his hand but he refused. Apparently some old bloke told a Darlo player to "bite his legs" no doubt a ref...

Re: Leamington new ground
Am I right in thinking that the Leamington ground will be all seater (unclear from the plans)? I think we would need to preserve terrracing in any future stadium (and possibly half time migration), i would imagine that would cut the cost too. One big stand, and 3 tin sheds would be sufficient for o...

Re: Darlington V Chorley
For me it was the way the linesman reacted that makes it worse, he was adamant it wasn’t a goal, waving his hand and shaking his head like a demented baboon. He is always shite when he runs the line when I’ve seen him.

Re: Darlington V Chorley
You’re making excuses for them.
If I had been that ref today having had the week he’s had and he sees that photo of the ball clearly over the line I’d be having a pop at the assistant for keeping him in the spotlight with another poor call.

Re: Darlington V Chorley
The photograph shows the ball in its entirety well over the line by several inches so it is not 'just' over the line, and you fail to consider that the photograph shows this at a point before the defender's boot has made contact with the ball, which suggests that the ball would travel even further ...

Re: Darlington V Chorley
It’s a decision of very small margins, the officials have to be completely sure the ball has crossed the line so it’s no surprise the goal wasn’t given. It incorrect isn't it - but this summarises it. Small margins. The photo shows the whole ball is only just over the line. In real time it would be...
