Re: New Striker
Loan until end of the season, worth a punt and a try. We have in theory 4 midweek games, wo will need to let Nelson take a breather in that period. If the lad does well enough then he has the chance to sign for next season, if nothing comes of it then so be it. Seems a good move by the club with not...

Re: The Defence
Problem we have is that we are largely playing Sat/Tue for most of the rest of the season.
We need to keep players fresh, so same players each game won't work. It will all be about the squad now. Although I can see the reason why that would be your optimum team.

Re: The Defence
Newall, I think is probably the best left back, with pace and aggression. Should start for me. And yet he had a poor game yesterday well in the first half - didn't notice him as much in the second. I think he gave the ball away every time he got possession in the first half. He looks like his confi...

Newall, I think is probably the best left back, with pace and aggression. Should start for me. Sukar, isn't the tallest or dominant centre back but does a steady away job, has some pace compared to others and is the best at bringing the ball out and engaging the midfield creating gaps for others.

Re: Mark Beck
I'm hoping Beck does quite well, just as long as it's not against us. I have no bitterness and I think we should just move on. DJ has mentioned in the match programme today that at time of writing his notes, we had 2 offers in for players with other clubs. So hopefully some movement on a striker in ...

Re: Darlington V Spennymoore
Does anyone know why Shola Ameobi was at the match? I was wondering whether a loanee from the Toon might be imminent - and whether Rob Ramshaw is the most annoyed player in non-league football. Shola is Newcastle United loan manager. So reading between the lines it sounds like one of Newcastle yout...

Re: New faces
Nope as Fleetwood released him on a free and Bristol Rovers signed him. So no contract elements would be built in, we just have to be happy that the lad has had a good run in the football league and proud we gave him the platform.

Re: Mark Beck
Why isn't the club revealing the transfer fee? Why is it hush hush. Both clubs will want not to reveal. If you really want to know just wait until Jan/Feb 24 and it will be in the accounts or should be. It would be interesting to know from the point of view of what sort of levels Darlo are setting ...

Because we were sorting out new face/faces before Beck left anyhow.
Wouldn't expect a striker yet but who knows.

Re: Mark Beck
Sadly, yes he is sure.
The media around it will be managed as opposed to just announced. I would expect/hope a player in before Saturday also, AA is certainly trying with the squad so thin.

Re: Mark Beck
Some players get paid 52 weeks at Darlo and some 39/40. Depends what's agreed in the contract, no idea if Beck was on a 52 week contract but quite possibly.
Some players like the money guaranteed each week, rather than 12 weeks where it's missing.

Re: Mark Beck
Can't blame for Beck going to a club, that offers him something that we can't. Until the day comes when we can offer full-time football to our star players, this will not be the last time this happens. Good luck Mark and thanks for the memories. Not just fulltime football, double your wage and sign...

Re: Mark Beck
Massively disappointed if Beck leaves and it appears he has, mainly because the negativity it brings for a period. We are looking to get back on track and have a positive second half of the season, this may well happen but it brings the mood down around the club. Over to AA to use the funds and bri...

Re: Southend Away
Just to clarify, I think Darlofan97 is referring to the deadline for registering players in the National League North (31st March). Whereas, I think super_les is referring to the EFL transfer window, which closes at the end of January. Correct. In the past it does seem more deals are done at our le...

Re: Southend Away

Hopefully with a bit of cup money and stay...

Re: Lambert attracting attention
Armstrong says we don’t need to sell anyone, but surely any of our players could leave if the price is right. I would imagine that Lambert will have a release clause in his contract, just as Charman did. So if prospective buyers are prepared to match the fee required he will likely be on his way. I...

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)
I was looking at some historical FA Cup scores from years gone by and came across this one : Darlington 0 Wigan 5.

Yeah more but smaller steps. Also I don't remember being that bothered or have issues about the view in my teens, just happy being in the middle of the tinshed going crazy if we scored - maybe that's a younger thing.
