Re: Harvey Saunders

Unless we bring a striker in Saunders is not going to get us the goals to keep us in this league. Total agreement. Not "So Young" Harvey will never develop into a potent striker at this level or above. He is a headless chicken. Unless we are paying him £10 per week, extending his contract was being...

Re: yes another fundraiser on 17th November Silly Things

The turn out surprised me, as you say particularly so after the success of their previous performance. Nonetheless was a great evening and well done.

Re: Wilson Kneeshaw

I see he’s left Sacramento and now back in Darlo, worth another shot? Squandered several opportunities. My opinion is he does not have the physique to match the skill he has. Good luck to him. PS His brother Jackson was a promising golfer, however i heard he as laterly an extra on a reality tv show.

Re: Craig Stoddart interview with Martin Gray

MG Actions/Comments, immediately prior too, during and after his departure have probably put him on a par with RS as the likely least welcome people at any DFC gathering / discussion of any sort.

Indeed. Almost all Football Academies need to be connected to a football club in order to provide a succession route, probably BTec funding also.

Re: Craig Stoddart interview with Martin Gray

Everything was taken out of context and people misunderstood him ...no he rumbled himself. Trying to drag John Tempest into the infamous Ra...

Re: Darlo's High Street

Re: Darlington FC V Spennymoor match thread

He is simply not good enough.
Lacks the ability or strength to hold the ball up, or link up bringing others into the game.
Speed to burn , however forgets to take the ball with him.
Be surprised if he is still with us next season
