Darlo Uncovered

Football Manager has taken up so much time in it's various incarnations. Call of Duty 2 is stunningly good. Zelda Ocarina of Time is a masterpiece. Super Mario World is amazing. Pro Evo 4 - the last truly great football game imo. Pes went downhill since then, and Fifa still isnt quite at that level,...

Good move. Will keep a bit of money ticking over during the summer. I might pick up the home one. Not too sure about the new design, but will certainly have a look at it when they come into stock

sounds like there could be a big turnover of players in the summer. Hopefully some foreign flair can be found to actually help us score plenty of goals! I'm looking forward to next season. Davey has turned this group of players into a competitive enough outfit, especially defensivly. Hopefully our s...

I want York and Gateshead to stay in the BSP, and Luton to go up.

HD comes in 2 strands ( I think). 720 and 1080. I have a 720p set up, and it's far better than Standard def, so 1080p should be awesome

3D telly would be good as long as you didnt have to wear those stupid glasses.

5-0 to Dale, but I expect more than 93 away fans probably 150 to 200. The crowd is going to be nearer to 5000, as they can tie up promotion tomorrow night and I'll be there to witness it. With it being such a big game for Dale will it be all ticket? Can Darlo fans just rock up, pay on the door and ...

I'd personally define world class as someone who is one of the best in the world in their respective position. Rooney is one, A Cole another. Gerrard, Lampard and Ferdinand aren't far off. I certainly wouldn't describe Carrick, Barry, J Cole, Walcott, Johnson et al as world class. Very good players ...

I've got a cheeky bet at 25-1 for him to be in the WC squad, so obviously he deserves to go :lol: But, I actually do think he deserves a chance in a friendly at least. As others have said, he does what Heskey does but with more end product, at least this season anyway. Crouch is a different option t...

I agree that there hasn't been that many really good temas turn up. That's either because this league is awful, or that the better teams have onnly had to play at 50% to win comfortably. The BSP won't be easy, but top 5 must be the aim.

I'd quite happily come back up through the playoffs! I really hope Luton go up this season, but I can't see us winning the league next season. Playoffs should be a realistic aim though.

La Liga has the better individual players imo, but bar a few of them, most of them play for the top 2 sides. It doesn't mean it's not good to watch, but I think that the Premiership has more strength in depth still.

I feel optimistic about next season (which is probably a mistake). Being relegated early could help us in a way. We know our fate, and Davey and Kidd can now plan for next season nice and early, as they seem to be doing already. More stability, a biggish budget for the league, a seemingly competent ...

Good news. He waspoor in the first part of the season, but understandable considering his previous lack of match practice. He's looked decent since the turn of the year. He should be a good player for us next season. Also, its promisng to see that we are offering contracts to those we want to keep n...

I remember running onto the pitch after the last game when I was about ten. I got a rollocking off my old man and have never done so since. (Bar the last game at Feethams) I think most of us were encouraged to have a leisurely walk on the pitch after the last match at Feethams. I now love the Arena...

Good news for the club. Any money it makes is a welcome boost, and if we can make 50k a year from it, then thats a good players wage. Also, well said Peter Frietag. Well said. Maybe we can start getting some more help from the council, now that hopefully bonds with the community are starting to be m...

Really?! I'd say we'd have no chance of signing him if he said he didnt want to talk to us. You've changed your tune. Just a couple of days ago you thought we had a good chance of keeping him?!! He's not willing to sign a new contract because he wants to weigh up his options at the end of the seaso...

On the subject of Tees' commentators the two Poolie ones are an odd pair. You have Brian Arrundale who mangles the English language chronically and is the most biased commentator I've ever heard; and Ivan Ash who seems to think he's the Oscar Wilde of radio commentary. Could be worse I suppose, cou...

I have read it again and he does indeed say best, on 1st glance I though he said one of the best. Sorry Al As it stands at the moment 1 Messi 2 Daylight 3 Rooney 4 The rest No worrie. I'd agree with that, but replace "Daylight" with "Lightyears" :lol: And Ronaldo is still pretty decent too! Kaka ha...

Messi is so much better than any other player in the world. He's going to go down alongside Pele and Maradonna at this rate. Thankfully, it should hopefully stop this Rooney is the best player in the world nonsense.

Must be about the only good thing from this season! Roll on August

I thought the ref was very good. Far better than most we get at this level

Will you lot wake up?! We can only afford wages of £250 a week for Gareth Waite next season so I doubt we can offer Purcell much more. Remember, next season we will probably be getting crowds of say 1700. In the Purcell article it states that he's attracted a lot of scouts. That suggests there is a...

“I am looking to this as a shop window. There are a whole lot more people watching you than ever would in Ireland. Whether I stay at Darlington we will have to see at the end of the season, but there is going to be interest if you are scoring goals. I told the gaffer I would see out my contract and...

I thought Arnison played well. Far better than earlier on in the season. Maybe it's because his contract is up for renewal, or maybe he is actually finding a bit of form. Milne will be worth signing imo. His distribution is poor, but he's a young right footed defender playing at LB. His defending is...

He's certainly saying all the right things atm

Was randomly looking on the internet and found this article http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/football/6544546.When_will_Shearer_become_boss_/ What is it with some people and needing managers with "links to the area"?! Some Darlo fans go on and on about needing an ex player, or someone who know...

andy why don't you set up a justgiving page? Would make it far easier for people to donate than having to actually contact you.

So the fact that Damon's second e-mail says that the kit has been changed because it would need to be for both Conference AND Football League rules is bollocks? Probably got told off by someone who wants to make it sound like the club isn't 100% resigned to non league football next season! Unless o...

Burgmeier is still an international and playing back in Switzerland, Giallanza had to retire. Apart from a trial at Oxford in 2007 i cant find anything on Ngoma. Dunno if this website is old or not, but apparently Giallanza's working with Hodgy (and Gary Bennett) for BHP. http://www.bhpsport.co.uk/...

My season ticket for the 1st time since 1971 - hope i'm wrong tho ! In fact the post doesn't make sense! What do you hope you're wrong about.......................the fact that you're not going to get a season ticket! No it could actually be the fact that i have an opinion - but fook me it looks li...
