Re: Newton Aycliffe v Darlington

I thought it was a good turn out from Darlo supporters yesterday. A nice little ground, and a warm welcome from the NA staff. To be fair NA played some good stuff yesterday, a cutting edge up front it could of been a different score line. Good luck to Atkinson and his team this season, I’m sure the...

Re: Make or break season for AA

Sure. Of course they do, and sometimes people overachieve. AA did at Blyth. But, the path to every manager who dramatically overachieves is littered with many more who dramatically underachieve. If you are going to let a safe pair of hands go (which AA certainly is at this point) you better have a ...

Re: Aaron Martin wanted from Gateshead

My understanding is that Craig is a totally committed fan like all of us and some of the comments are out of order. Seems like we were on the verge of signing Martin and he was probably told that, maybe jumped the gun a touch, and then something happened to change the outcome. Sadly for me as think...

Re: Goodbye Jack Lambert

Or is it? Gatesheed have signed two midfielders so probably one door closed for him. Whilst we know he has great skills, maybe his lack of playing time in the final months of the last season is counting against him. Any clubs really interested should have snapped him up by now. Hope he doesn’t end ...

Re: 23/24 Festive Fixture Pairing

Scarborough over Easter? I doubt that would ever happen given the problems last time. The authorities learned their lesson in 86 when they joined the league and had them at home to Wolves on the first day. 3000 Wolves fans spent the night camped out on the beach!
