Re: Darlington FC V South Shields Match Thread

I thought South Shields were superb from start to finish. They never stopped running, closed down our players well, passed the ball crisply, kept up the energy levels and we couldn't live with their movement. They were everything we weren't and Gray's tactic of packing the midfield and playing one ...

Re: FA CUP HOME v SOUTH SHIELDS

It's easy enough to just extend the barrier round towards the seated stand and provide more space for away fans. Hopefully they sell all 800. I can see 850-1000 darlo fans. If you go for the better side fo that equation that would be 1800. If all payed an average of £12 (Inc. ticket, 50/50 programm...

Re: Martin Gray

Likewise. The harm he inflicted is having consequences now. I do not question we need external investment, however, the way he did what he did was simply wrong. It showed an arrogance and disregard for all the effort and investment from the fan base over the last few years. I have put my share into...

Re: Darlington FC V Leamington Match Thread

Teams have the way we attack well and truly sussed, just drop another defender off the CH and just clear any flick ons from Beck.This is the way MG has us set up and it just ain't working...3 goals in 7 games tells us that...so do we scrap this system and bring in a couple of strikers with pace?.Big...

Re: Darlington FC V Leamington Match Thread

Not getting the breaks at the moment, really tough on MG with up to 6 defenders out and to be honest making it virtually impossible to string results together as several players are being played out of position.Trying to be positive, if we can get Marrs and Brown back, and Collins and Galbraith are ...

Re: Chorley v Darlington

Trying to be objective, this league is tougher than last season and I feel other teams have strengthened probably more than we have.We only had Collins and Caton in the team tonight, all the remaining players are from last season.We desperately need more pace and if MG has used his playing budget th...

Re: Chorley v Darlington

Re: Jordan Richards leaving

communications from the club re the playing side of things has been terrible over the last 3 years. To be fair I tend to think the playing side does it's talking on the pitch - and I'd say that's been pretty good. What communications are you wanting from the club exactly re the playing side of thin...

Re: Fewster signs for Spenny

Just wish they would sod off, really sickening news this, looks like Foley AND Brewster have been signed from under our noses.Sadly but they are edging ahead of us now.Cheesed off with this, thought he would be signing for us seeing as Fenwick has gone.

Re: Darlington FC V Spennymoor match thread

Thought we were completely one dimensional yet again.

I know Gray will say that it has served us well over a few s...

Re: Jordan Richards leaving

Really cannot understand what has happened here, strange signing in the first place with Hunter and Marrs for RB so no way would he settle for reserve football.The Bradley Fewster situation is still odd.....wonder if this frees up wages to bring him in?
