Re: Gainsborough v Darlington Match Thread

We must give Tommy the rest of this season and make sure we finish above the bottom three, we simply cannot afford to be paying up managers contracts, the biggest problem is Gray with average players on long term contracts and unfortunately Tommy has inherited MG's mistakes in this respect.We need t...

Re: Gainsborough v Darlington Match Thread

Listening to the commentary we have no shape whatsoever, that starting lineup was crazy, why Thommo at RB when we have Mares for gods sake, come on Tommy man just get a half decent back 4 and play everyone in their normal positions.Starting with 4 wide men is suicide. Wheatley should have started wi...

Down to 10 men as well, merry Xmas.....at least Caton is off, hope that is his last game in a Darlo shirt.TW has to recognise this surely to god.

Re: Gainsborough

Like the look of that team, though I might swap Syers for Wheatley, and use Syers from the bench as he always seems to pop up with a goal from there. Agree Quakerz, Wheatley for Syers and Brown for Heat on as I don't think he is physical enough.That team would climb the table IMO. Sent from my XT10...

Re: Gainsborough

Absolutely vital we start getting clean sheets or we will be in big trouble, just think the midfield area should include one less attacker for a more defensive option as extra cover to our back 4.Hope we abandon the 3 centre halves and revert back to 4 at the back plus the defensive midfielder as I ...

Today's postponement won't help matters, as DJ said that we desperately needed this game to go ahead. Just wonder if a 3pm kick off would have given this game a far better chance of going ahead with a 10-30 inspection, always a doubt with an 8-30 inspection.Typically raining at the moment with temp...

Fair enough if he is paying Gregans wages but do you need a management/coaching team of 4 plus goalkeeping coaches at this level.Crazy!

Re: Darlington v Harrogate Match Thread

The poor form was very evident towards the end of Gray's tenure, we are in a transition not only with style of play but players coming and going and we have to accept a season of rebuilding and make sure we are in this league next season.Hard to accept after all our success on the pitch but look at ...
