Re: West Auckland Boycott Mega Thread!! (keep posts here ple

It's a valid point Hugh... And had they announced the price at the start of the season, then there wouldn't have been an issue. But this is on the back of the huge following we're taking away from home week in week out...and it is blatently an attempt to ring us for everything. But it looks like it...

You are intimidating people by calling them scabs, talking about whether their photos will be visible on our website.

Here's a question for you. Did you pay £18 to watch Darlo last season? You are aware that by doing so you encouraged Darlo to keep charging £18. Why not boycott?

Re: New seating

Thing is, during the winter months it will be worth paying the extra £2 but only IF the roof goes on. If it doesn't get put on then there's no point buying a seated ticket when you could be stood in certain areas of the ground which are better sheltered. Unless of course you're disabled and have to...

Re: Tonight's attendance

The shortage of covered seating might put quite a few off on wet nights. Not sure if we ever got to the bottom of how much a roof for the temporary stand would cost did we? Obviously you have to balance the cost of the roof with the extra income you get, but when its wet we'd be better off having a ...

Re: The Tannoy

Aren't that well known team north of the border now known as 'The Rangers'? In any of their results I've read so far, not once have I seen that name used. They stay simply as 'Rangers'. The company that owns Rangers is known as "The Rangers Football Club Ltd", but I don't think the team name changed.

So we are stuck with it forever, although I guess we could change the name in the future if we decided. I agree that classifieds will always read out the full team name. So I reckon we probably have a decade to either get back just Darlington FC and drop 1883 completely or alternatively we try and ...

Let's concentrate on the league then.

Looking on the bright side of things cup competitions in the league are a killer. You have the FA Cup, FA Vase, Durham Challenge Cup and the League Cup. No prize money involved for the last 2 either.
Have you got a link for this?
