Darlo Uncovered

We have to keep winning our own games to make sure we're safe, to many scenarios to guess. Just win and it doesn't matter what others do. The team are working for eachother to secure our NLN PLACE. . I've been saying for about the last 10 matches that all we need to do is keep winning and forget th...

Wish Rushall would just F off. Ridiculous the run we have put together and it’s still all to play for. Win next week and I hope we can breathe easier. Would’ve preferred Blyth or Farsley stop up. Obviously not at our expense, worried about that first and foremost. You hope we can breathe easier? Co...

Have any of SW 4 signings had a bad game yet.!.? Difficult to say who has had most impact but all 4 were excellent again today. If I had to choose one I reckon it would be Young, just ahead of Main. The confidence a 17 yr old has given a mainly 30 yr old+ defence is unbelievable really. Another ner...

I hope they don't come down. It's just another "bigger than us" club coming down and making the league harder, and if they come down they may re-evaluate the players they want to keep. It might scupper our chances of signing Scott Barrow for next season as he can clearly still do a grand job at this...

What S.W. has achieved has been very impressive. Thinking back over the last 30 years I'm not sure whether I can think of another Darlo manager who has orchestrated such a dramatic turnaround on the pitch. Gray did well to make a team from nothing and Cooper did well to win the Trophy, but Watson h...

‘Almost certainly’ I’m missing something here.

You're almost certainly missing the fact that we're almost certainly staying up.

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

Now I'm extra nervous.

Mind you, we've won 4 of our last 5 home games.

I know he's a 4th/5th choice,just saying we need to. See something of him before the season ends ,if he's fit as it says he is , I appreciate that it's unlikely. However I believe Steve Watson knows best and leave it there. I guess it depends on the length of his contract. If he's out of contract t...

It's 3 matches left and I doubt we'll see him at all. Even after about 6 weeks of his "mini pre-season" the bloke could barely run, then got injured again. So we are are about 2 weeks into full training for him after that injury? So he'll be at the barely can run stage now. Why is he going to get in...

Haven't they got a couple of long throw specialists? Hopefully they'll only get throws against the wind.

I thought he had a decent match overall. In the first half he broke into the box and had a shot/cross which Salkeld couldn't turn in. He put himself about a bit, maybe looks a little bit raw, but was in the right place to score our first. For over half of the season we never had anyone in the right ...

But how have Darlington Town got help from the council and not us?

Check the date of the post maybe.....

Oh yeah.

Thought Lawlor was excellent today and in first 20 blocked two potential goals at least, pleased for him.

Yes Lawlor was absolutely immense today. Good shout.

Watson's record is 10-0-9, not a single draw!

But crucially a +50% win ratio. I couldn't have dreamed he'd win 10 from 19 at the point when he joined.

I watched on the stream and that was a well deserved win.

It's in our hands. Win the next 2 home games and that takes us to 55 points. No one ever goes down with 55 points so we'll be safe. Southport of course won't be easy, a bit of a bogey side for us.

These are bang average and in a false position. We will smash them 3 or 4-0.

Fuck it, 5-0.

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.

Not only was he allowed to do it, but (allegedly) Asante is on a two-year contract, yet he has only played 18% of all available minutes since he signed and he is one of our highest-paid players since becoming fan-owned. I strongly disagree with the term "played". I can hardly remember that far back...

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 ...

⬆️ Merely pointing out that players get injured. You were right about Gowling 97, but FFS - stop banging on about it. No - because it is entirely relevant (and probably the biggest reason why) to the situation we are in. We can't pretend we weren't in the situation before Gowling came in. Our recor...

Yes but the club as an entity survives and still provides football on a weekly basis. It still provides the leisure activity within the community to the fans who demand it. Nothing stops that. So again what is the alternative just shout into the echo chamber "this is terrible" "this was a bad decis...

If we go down this season, it's not because the referee/linesman got that decision wrong yesterday. It's because for the vast majority of the season we've been dogshit. Funny how these terrible officials are only ever terrible in one direction [emoji2371] Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk If ...

Saw this thread from Leamington FC on Twitter last night regarding their new ground. Lots to be jealous of, not least the level of support from Warwick District Council. If only DFC could get some real strong local government support behind us and build the football club into the local plan. https:...

It would be good to go some way to atone for that abomination of a result masterminded by Gowling at their place. This game on Friday has nothing to do with that. It's a game, we need three points to help us avoid relegation - any talk of revenge or of Gowling is not relevant. Lads. It's "Clowning"...

I've always liked Tommy Taylor and think he's one of the better keepers of recent years. If we part ways at the end of the season he can hold his head high because he's pulled off many saves which have saved us points over his time here. He definitely could have done better with their 3rd yesterday ...

I never saw that one coming. They wanted it desperately and we didn't turn up.

Both of our full backs got tortured and we were lucky that their number 9 couldn't hit a barn door otherwise it could have been 5, 6 or 7.

What else can you say after that?

Keep the faith lads we have to win more than rushall . it's doable, right up to 15th place only 4 points difference.some have to play eachother so it's in our own hands to stay in NLN Why are you focusing on Rushall? There are several teams who if their last 5/6 match form is poor enough, could go ...

It’s been a while but we were outthought, outfought and out played today pretty much the whole game. If it’s between us and Rushall then that makes me nervous because they looked half decent and certainly are battling for everything. We do struggle to match teams who are very physical. We couldn’t ...

I can't think of any scenario where it would make good business sense to sink that sort of money into moving the pipe. Even in the unlikely event that DFC was to take ownership of BM, it would be more cost effective to build elsewhere on site. No chance. Assuming a cost of £1m to move the pipe, the...
