Re: Banbury vs Darlo

Will be interesting to hear what AA say on this, Telford beat them, and think they have taken 1 point in the last half dozen games, and by the sound on the radio that we were only just deserving of a point. I know it is 3 games away in a row, but opportunities missed is a worry. AA said about Blyth ...

Re: Kettering v Darlington

I didn't go today as I thought we would struggle to win as we don't have a team that has that mental and physical strength and belief to deliver against poor strong direct teams. If we do get promoted we will meet those teams every week so would be a difficult year ahead if we do make it (never mind...

Re: Leamington v Darlo

I have to say listening to that, I could not understand why AA put on another centre half and took off lambert. The centre half's were new playing together but doing OK, then had to re- organise, so little time to adjust for the new partnership, plus gave up midfield presence. Last 3 games against b...

Re: York sack another manager

Think it expected that Henderson leaves next week with the trust borrowing money to pay him off, and several offers to take over to be voted on, decision on whether it is 51% or 100% of shares being on offer to prospective buyers.

Re: New faces

Although Beck will be a miss, I thought we played well when Beck was injured with Hazel playing number 9. Also at times AA has played Hazel and Beck with lambert and Felix really playing as wingers, which left 2 midfielders, who on occasion just got overrun. This may allow him to have 3 midfield pla...

Thought keeper hand ball was obvious red card, and from my view Beck push looked a penalty as he was favourite for the ball, but he did go down easy. Not sure about Felix decisions as on other side to me but as ref...

Re: 2,300 tickets sold for Boxing day as of 18th Dec (Now 2,700 pre-sold - ONLY 3 STANDING TICKETS LEFT FOR DARLO FANS)

Totally agree that may be our best team and Scarborough are a good team with fast pace, my point was that Moke and Purver run there socks off in the first half as they were outnumbered in midfield and may have needed a little support mid way through the second half so maybe Liddle on for one of the ...

Re: 2,300 tickets sold for Boxing day as of 18th Dec (Now 2,700 pre-sold - ONLY 3 STANDING TICKETS LEFT FOR DARLO FANS)

To be honest given they had not had a game since 3rd Dec, they looked more lively than us and not rusty at all, I felt for Moke and Purver they were the only midfield we had and run their socks off but always in recovery mode and tired in the second half, Feix did little in support of midfield or de...

" That might not be correct as it appears we have taken 100 of Scarboroughs tickets remaining tickets this far and we may be given more. They have 168 standing"


Do we know when these extra 100 tickets will be going on sale, zero shown on Web site.

The Scarborough fans option to buy tickets for boxing day seems to have disappeared, wonder if they have sold out there allocation, or as Darlo home end have only 188 left that they are looking somehow to use some of the normal away end space for our fans?

Re: Guiseley V Darlo

Second best over the park, Guiseley look sharper and fitter than us plus better organised with space all over the pitch. First game against a team that are committed and with a bit of skill?. On first half evidence, this could be a hard season, but who knows second half we may turn up.

Re: New signing

The thing I like about our new signing is that he is willing to have a shot from outside the penalty area, not something we have seen a lot of since Charman left. Think team is looking solid unless we have injuries.
