Darlo Uncovered

I just hope that Tommy Taylor is named as a sub as knowing our luck Matty Young will get injured in the first 5 mins and witout a keeper on the bench... I have had exactly the same thought. It might seem over cautious to some, but I think for such an important match it would be reassuring to have a...

Whether the weather be fine, or whether the weather be not,
Whether the weather be cold, or whether the weather be hot,
We’ll weather the weather whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not.

Back to reality. Feeling nervous about today, I know we should win on current form, but a couple of bogeys to overcome. Firstly, I don’t think we have a great home record against Farsley, and secondly the curse of the big crowd, when we sometimes seem to freeze. This group of players have overcome a...

did Banbury get officially relegated last night by Spennymoor which puts them in playoffs at the moment? Lee got Manager of the month & has taken Moors out of the relegation zone & into playoffs. If we had got Watson & Mitchell in earlier instead of Clowning we would have been up there too. But we ...

The club are now stating that 1,600 tickets have been sold in advance for Saturday, and that very few seat tickets remain. Given reasonable weather I would expect a crowd of well over 2,000 for the game.

Do Farsley ever bring that many to away games? Anyone

No is the simple answer. They struggle to get supporters for home games.

Ground can fit in 3100 it won’t be anywhere near that reckon 2450 but an excellent 50/50 also reckon kick off delayed. Hopefully, if a lot of supporters buy tickets in advance it will make the process of getting people into the stadium a lot quicker. Maybe a good idea if the club also asked fans to...

According to the club 1,400 tickets have been sold in advance for the game on Saturday. I am guessing that this figure must include season ticket holders.

Over the last 20 games, we’re 8th in the form table and Farsley are 21st. We’re where we are because of Gowling, they’re where they are because they’re not a very good team. We won’t have any bother at the weekend. How long have you been supporting Darlington ? Surely you don’t think it is a forgon...

Looks like Alex was Gowling’s best signing for the club.

Surely we will get Needham Market simply because they are in a feeder league to the NLN.

I think Southport are still in a spot of bother even though they have 53 points. Their goal difference is only 1 goal better than ours and they have 2 massive games to play. They are at home to Rushall on Saturday, and on current form I quite fancy an away win, and their final match is away at South...

I take nothing for granted. Not long ago some on here were asserting that 50 points would guarantee safety. Well look where we are now with 52 points and not yet safe.

It's not completely out of the realm of possibility: with us being part time, it may work with him spending half his time with us and half with Sunderland's youth team, especially with him being so young. It’s probably unlikely, but there are real benefits in him playing for us, because he can cont...

Brilliant performance today, we made an in form side look very ordinary. Never heard the MOTM or crowd announced as per usual. But in my humble opinion I thought Tom Platt was immense and deserved MOTM, although Cedric Main was terrific as well. Crowd looked around 1800, hopefully we'll get over 20...

Yes results went against us today, however the Blyth one went for us and they have got to play 2nd and 3rd yet, they need to win at least one to go above us, so the results could have been a lot worse. Blyth are in the worst situation as far as I am concerned. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Act...

52 points and still not safe.

Southport’s recent away from is impressive, 4 wins and a draw from their last 5 away games.

Just Sukar and Ngandu out injured according to the preview. SW seemed to indicate a few not fully match fit (think we can guess who) and also emphasized players need to train well to be considered, maybe implying that some currently aren't. Darlo 2-0 Southport. Nagandu has recovered and is availabl...

It's meant to be around 17degrees at game time on Saturday. The strong winds will be from the South, so across the pitch rather than from one end to the other. So hopefully it won't spoil the game. 50mph cross winds will certainly make it difficult. Better make sure I have my wig securely fastened ...

Player of the season: Cedric Main. I know he's not been here long but he is everything we were missing and he's been crucial in this (fingers crossed) great escape. Best young player of the season (u23): Matty Young Best signing: Cedric Main Most improved: Toby Lees Mr consistent: Will Hatfield Mos...

Lawlor, lees and Matty young form a very formidable triangle.

Sadly not against Chorley

He is apparently fit and has been for the last 2 or 3 games, but not being picked.

Maybe not impressing the manager with his effort in training, as Curry and Nelson are both being picked ahead of him in the squad.

Not to mention signing Rutledge on loan.

Oh boy we needed that. Great response from the players after the disappointment of Friday. Unbelievably we have won 8 and lost 14 away games this season. Only 1 more left, can never remember us going all season without drawing a match away from home. Anyone know if it has ever happened before ? On a...

The rest of us are bored with you 😴😴😴 I'm sure everybody else on this board is happy for you to speak for them on their behalf. Clowning virtually killed this club - still might have done - I'm happy that you can just forgive and forget. It’s not a case of forgiving and forgetting. Mistakes have be...

Funny how when we start loosing games again all the moaners come out the woodwork again Sadly it is because some people are happier when we lose, because it suits their negative personalities. They perversely enjoy a good whinge, and are denied that pleasure when we are doing well. No. They aren't ...
