Darlo Uncovered

So Blatter's resigned. Genuinely astonished. Have the authorities finally got something on him? To quote gramps for the 2nd time The below taken from BBC NEWS. 'Avalanche' "Jack Warner, a key figure in the deepening scandal, said he had given lawyers documents outlining the links between Fifa, its ...

Very very funny

I can imagine Pete making progress down High Row, Kung Fuing all the Chuggers out the way.

I simply couldn't believe my eyes :o On page 73 of the latest issue, under the heading "TEAM STRIPPED" there they all are. I recognised Thommo first, then Dowson, and then it became clear -- this is the Darlo team. It could become a bit of a collectors issue I feel, especially with the ladies! Turn ...

So Blatter's resigned. Genuinely astonished. Have the authorities finally got something on him? It does seem a possibility, the intense heat being generated now will be a new experience for Blatter. It seems he won't actually relinquish power for quite a while. This gives him time to have a bit of ...

Professional cyclists & skiers have maybe come back from such injuries. Unusual sentence Neil. The either have come back - or not, surely. Anyway, how is Graeme? Does anyone know? edit for Spyman :) That's an unusual sentence Neil, Pro cyclists & skiers have either come back - or not, surely.

Teflon Sepp is re-elected. Oh dear '

That will go down like a Led Zeppelin

Old Sepp must be in good shape to take all this stress, he's 79 when all's said and done!

Anyway--- Blatter out Blatter out ......................

Gramps, is this a good time to use my favourite Adolf Hitler quote? :) "You only have to kick the door in and the whole rotten structure will come crashing down." Mr Hitler was referring to having a go at Russia in 1941 (Operation Barbarossa) but I like to think it's applicable to this situation. FI...

fat tony brings darlo_Pete's music selection to our attention here, in the "what music I'm listening to at the moment' thread" f.t "Well worth a repost. Easily one of the funniest things ever posted on here, and delivers on so many levels..." viewtopic.php?f=3&t=12315 Ps, thread link probably won't ...

Is the quiz for teams?

How does it work??

My bestest most Lolcanic Darlo-Pete offering was his long list of fave music selections. I don't know where it's buried though ....................

Every time I get on Uncovered lately a thing pops up from the bottom asking - "Do you want to open or share (172 bytes) impgb tradedoubler.com" The answer is, no I bloody don't, but when I click cancel it just comes back/and back/and back - in fact it's just popped up now. How can I get rid of it? A...

We're very lucky to have him, I actually find it quite amazing that he's always wanted the Darlo job, and I actually believe him when he says he's not going anywhere else. Believe me I know him better than most on here and theres nobody more passionate about DFC than him. He eats, sleeps and breath...

Apart from the odd time he loses his cool M.G is doing a great job - and the stability we now have in the management structure makes things so much better than "the old days" - whereby you could wake up one morning to discover the club has gone into admin, or a manager has left. Martin Gray has been...

This sounds like an extremely serious injury to me, it's a vital internal organ that has been damaged. The first priority is his health and having the ability to lead a normal life, football will be way down that list.

My thoughts too.

On the Guardian's front page today-

" Qatar World Cup, now running at cost of 62 dead for every game"


Staggering ..................

I've just read the article, the picture at the top shows the collision!

Best wishes Graeme, look forward to seeing you back in action next season.

The FA can't spell "Middlesbrough"

Play offs at a minimum for me. We can do it

I expect the Evo Prem to be of a slightly better quality, but nothing to over worry us.

On a side note, I'm looking forward to Workington away, that's where the old Feethams floodlights now reside!

One comment from MG that had me thinking was regarding certain clubs who were "disrespectful" to us last season and who were wanting us not to go up for whatever reasons. Other than Lancaster and Warrington, it would be interesting to get an insight off Martin on what went on and which teams other ...

Option 1

A night out with Darlo-Pete.

Option 2

Three rounds of bare knuckle fighting V Alan White

I remember Anthony from The Arena days, he was (and no doubt still will be) very good at his job.

How is Graeme, does anybody know?

I disagree, I think if we can for a top-half finish then we will be okay! I disagree with your disagreement, and think you're being unambitious. We are Darlo, we have the management, the players, the fan base and everything else we need to really give this new league a go, so what's the point in ha...

Barney (the giant pink dinosaur) has just left Beverley Hills Utd and is keen on playing semi-pro football in the north of England.

He's not Ex Darlo but he's a "big unit" and can play both midfield and defence.

Could be worth a punt?

2020 Pete !

Unless you're Dr Who.

Good news, but what about Hatch?

I reckon we'll be there for the first 10 games or so.

Heritage Park has been a success and a much better option than the other ground that we nearly ended up in.

I've never been one of Brown's biggest fans as to me he sometimes looks a bit out of his depth, but in the two playoff games he really made a difference. He drove everyone on, led by example and helped in setting up goals.

Two very good games last week for Gary Brown.
