Darlo Uncovered

I get irritated when people post long sentences without commas but just for you no commas in my sentence. It won't last though!!!

Proud to say I've never had the displeasure of watching the programme. But great move for Luke & further excellent publicity for the club. I just feel that the potential WAGS probably have no idea where Darlo is & if they come to BM, they'll be very underwhelmed, as it's not exactly Premier League s...

That doesn't quite tie in with what he said when he arrived... that he was in it for the long haul and it was long-term project. Only Pete could be forecasting the end of the AA era after it has only just really begun! Spoke to somebody last Saturday, who talks to AA & more or less said what I said...

The thing is, there is a massive Elephant in the room. It’s really big and just sat there doing nothing, and it is - where do we play if we get promoted? How much will it cost? How will it be paid for? Armstrong and his players left Blyth because their chairman put a lid on their footballing ambiti...

If we get to the playoffs, I doubt any side would fancy playing us. Even if they are at home, with our away support we'd make them feel like they were the away team.

Just like the 5 year contract prevented Gray leaving us. Absolutely they seem pretty worthless. Supporting AA and matching his ambitions is the most effective way of keeping him. Yes I fear that if AA doesn't get the support to match his ambitions for the club, he will with reluctance move on. In t...

Saturday will be tough, as we've played midweek, so we'll probably be a bit tired, against a rested team. I'd be delighted with a draw.

We do need to be careful, as we don't know which league we will be in. Certainly the management team do need & deserve to be offered improved contracts.

Excellent team performance tonight. The team played at times some sublime football & Guiseley were chasing shadows. Great to see Hatfield celebrating scoring the winner. Also superb support, with probably over 300 making the trip.

Boston scored a late goal to win 1-0, not sure if that is a good or bad result for us.

Leamington drew at home 0-0 to Gateshead, which is a decent result for us.

Not sure what the best result would be in the Boston v Brackley game tonight. If the results go our way we could be up in 5th place after tonight's games, although on balance a draw in the Boston v Brackley game would probably suit us best.

The Station pub at Guiseley is a good place for a pre-match drink, only a couple of minutes walk from the ground.

If Storey doesn't make it, I'd expect Reid to be asked to fill in like on Saturday.

I hope we will take 300 to the game or am I being over optimistic?

Would take a couple of draws in our next away games v Guiseley & Chester

I reckon 4 points are achievable from the next 2 games. We have a lot of momentum at the moment. The only fly in the ointment is our makeshift defence, which could be found out.

Looks like we'll have to make do with the makeshift defence we have at the moment, as I'd have expected if we were going to bring in a left back for tomorrow evening, something would have happened today.

18 out of a possible 21 available is nothing short of promotion form.

I think he was there for 3 years & was certainly player of the season at least once, so he should get a good reception after giving them 3 years service.

I live between Darlington & Barney & I'm definitely going tomorrow evening. I might be able to pick you up from the Barney area, but I may be taking someone from Stockton & if I do I won't be able to take you. Hopefully I'll know either way later on this evening & I'll let you know. Really looking f...

I'm so glad we won against Alfreton, some teams in our division try to play watchable football but unfortunately they don't - and a mini shout out to HarryChartonsCat who predicted mid September that "The league season is over as far as play-offs are concerned". I'm not having a pop here Harry but ...

Listening to AA talking to Ray Simpson after the match, AA said he hoped to bring in a left back, so I think this is a case of balancing the books, although I doubt we were having to pay anything for lambert to play for us.

That can't be right the pride of Durham, is below us in the table. Wonder when Ainsley will get a vote of confidence?

It's a shock that fulltime Kidderminster are in danger of dropping into the bottom 2.

The BBC website doesn't show our game on Tuesday at Guiseley.

Not sure yet, it's a long way away. I'll look forward to the magic weekend in May first.

Thought today was a great performance, quality first goal by Campbell. Thought our defence was excellent, considering it was a makeshift formation. Thought Reid had a great game in the heart of defence in the second half. Can't wait for Guiseley on Tuesday evening, hope we get plenty of people going...

The problem that the rugby world cup has, is that they're are only 3 teams that have the potential to win the world cup & that is England, New Zealand & the overwhelming favourites Australia. For a strong tournament you need a tournament were the potential winners number more than 3 & the rest of th...

So where is all the frost people were worried about?

Apparently 4 degrees at the moment in Darlo, so not even a frost yet.

The World Cup draw has been made & the opening ceremony is at St James Park, with England playing Samoa.
