Darlo Uncovered

And only scored 20 goals, that is a major concern.

We don't need to find the perfect striker, but someone on loan who actually knows how to play as a striker would be a massive help. We have nobody who even knows how to play the role. Yet AA brought in Lambert. Still cannot understand why AA brought in Lambert with all our midfield options.The way ...

DFR makes it sound pretty dire tbh. It sounds like we've created nothing. I don't accept we really need a big target man, but we definitely need someone else to be the man at the top of the front 3. It's increasingly clear that Campbell just can't do it. DFR saying he looks a bit disinterested, whi...

Have we actually had a shot at goal yet?.Going by the commentary I don't think we have.20 goals in 18 games says it all.

Slung into the box, sounds like we're getting bullied to be honest. Elliott down injured and no back up keeper.... yikes.

If they are bullying us Solihull will have a field day.We are far too lightweight.

After seeing the highlights we have nowt to whinge about. The ball had come to a stop before the lad took the free kick and the goal scorer was definitely onside and ran in behind while Storey and Laing were stood with their mouths open catching flies. Just seen the highlights and our defence were ...

Thought we were excellent first half, played some great passing football and should have been 4 up.Their goal straight after half time was poor from us and without doubt was the turning point but even deep into added time we were very unlucky not to make it 3-2.Still cannot believe we did not take ...

Hi Ginge thanks for your overview as always. The Chester game is the 7-12-19 & not the 23-11-19. Chester struggled to beat Bradford PA at home yesterday, so they're not going to be too confident next Saturday. They would have had us watched yesterday and looking at that farcical 2nd half would thin...

AA resting an injury.

How the hell did we lose that game after a brilliant first 45 mins where we should have been 4 up.You just knew what would happen after that sloppy pass by Campbell which gifted them a goal on the restart but where was our marking to give their lad an open goal The 2nd was crazy, not sure about the ...

Just back from taking the covers off, pitch in perfect condition, no frost on it at all.

This tie will be a real contrast in styles, that's for sure. Tim Flowers makes no secret of the fact that he likes to bang the ball into the box as quickly as possible and favours big, bullying, physical players. He said that he soon came to appreciate that fancy technical football gets short shrif...

If we can match Walsall over 2 games we can certainly get a result against them.Think they are a big physical side so contrasting styles.Draw could have been a lot kinder but it will be close the same as Walsall.

3 weekends now that O'Neill has been kicking his heels. He would have benefited more staying at Darlo for the duration of the agreed loan at least. He is a rookie manager out of his depth IMO.As AA mentioned in his post match interview, the BT coverage of our game will make clubs aware of the high ...

Really surprised at the quality of Gainsborough considering they are 2nd bottom, non league football is light years ahead of the standard 5-10 years ago, the gap is closing rapidly with FL clubs, certainly no easy games in our league.

Heard the same from a pretty reliable source.

If we could find a role for him I'd love to see him back. Maybe there's some sort of coaching role? Another one for the "three times a Quaker" list! Should never have been released by TW, yet another crazy decision by him, was certainly good enough for us. Sent from my moto g(6) play using Tapatalk

Cup run anyone?

Can Thommo get those 2 goals today, must have a great chance to make history

Don't know what else Scott could have done, I heard it plenty of times.These are volunteers Pete, give them some credit for god's sake.

Place 2 or 3 stewards at the tin she'd end with 6 buckets of water and the second one of these lowlifes throw a flare just put it out.Simple really or am I missing something

Far too much of a gamble to put labour in, wouldn’t trust them with a bargepole, look no further than Diane Abbott who is clueless, cannot even do simple arithematic.

Feeling very flat about it. Disappointed with our defeat but not the manner of it. Fine margins and all that. Thought Walsall played it well actually and didn't give us too much of a sniff. We just didn't have that little bit of luck. Still, we will always have Walsall away and having been at Leami...

I'm not even sure it would have made that much difference to the outcome last night. It was an out-and-out centre forward that we were crying out for last night. Someone with a bit of presence to really trouble their defence, hold the ball up, bring others into play and score goals. A bit like Ty O...

Wonder if the BT cameras will have caught any of the idiots on video. Hopefully if they have we can ban them and maybe get the police involved. If the scum can be somehow identified, I really hope they get bans in terms of years rather than months.What’s between their ears for God’s sake after all ...

If you're only going to watch one goal from the weekend, make it Callum Roberts' hat-trick goal for Blyth Spartans, it's amazing, after going the full length of the pitch. He's now got 13 for them this season... they'll be well fecked when he moves on, as he surely will. Aye, nice goal. Good run an...

Laing gets injured and loses his place... we go on a run of 8 games unbeaten.... Laing returns to the starting line up....? Surely that's an incredibly narrow, simplistic and unfair view of today, given all the circumstances like injuries, unavailability, suspension etc. Agree with Lucan here, all ...

What the hell is going on here.What are our defenders doing for god's sake....totally embarrassed by this and already taking the gloss off Wednesday.

That will probably be the team Nick unless AA decides to find a place for Laing and moves Storey to RB.
