Darlo Uncovered

Sadly I think his career is over. What an awful waste of talent, would love to have seen his true potential in a Darlo shirt. Sent from my moto g(6) play using Tapatalk Exactly this. Young lads would kill to have a chance in the pro game and this bloke just seems to have given up even in non league

Ive not got a clue what national north players get but surely those at alot of clubs especially on 4-500 quid a week wont have 40 hour a week day jobs Don't imagine so. At NLN I think it's fair to suggest that the balance shifts from football as a bit of extra income to for some being the majority ...

Goodness, Scunthorpe are setting their stall out. 6 new signings, good experienced pro,s most from higher leagues who I would have in a heartbeat for Darlo! No idea of their financial status but these guys will have been expensive! From what I've seen, nobody knows if this new owner has the money t...

Recall him for gateshead during that ill fated 2018-19 season, after i also saw him for morton and was a decent player. Hes probably just looking to be at back near home and scottish championship aint a world away from national league. Good signing

I don’t think there’s anyone among our fan base who is absolutely against private investment it’s just a question of there being a safeguard against idiots. Tbh I can’t imagine many idiots being interested at this point. We’ve no real assets of interest. The only true safeguard you can put in place...

Not recall the supporters protests at fc united and they have done nothing off the field on recent times. FC United are on the most impressive community clubs that there is. Off the field Broadhurst Park is a hub for multiple sports clubs, I believe they use their classrooms in the ground for educa...

I'm also not sure that either Wycombe or Portsmouth have made the kind of break neck speed progress that would make you say the sale to private ownership was absolutely brilliant. I think Wycombe are in the same league, and Portsmouth moved up one - but who would argue Portsmouth belong in league t...

Theres good and bad points for fan ownership but whats worth looking at is clubs like portsmouth and wycombe etc who were fan owned for a few year until been sold to business men. Im guessing they hit the ceiling under fan ownership. Also not all fan ran clubs are well ran or even debt free, as men...

Stockton took 6k a few years back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Thats because the north east loved the vase, not so much in recent years though, no north east teams made it beyond qf this year Utter rubbish. You think Stockton took 6,000 fans to Wembley, because the NE was somehow in love wit...

Bearing in mind we took I believe 12k to Wembley for our FA Trophy win against Mansfield, Gateshead managed only to take 5k for their loss to Halifax. That's pretty poor support in my opinion. Jesus man you are obsessed with gatesheads support. I doubt darlington would take 5k now. Was a good day o...

Which is what happened to Gateshead. Except gateshead fans never had any ownership until 2019, graeme wood or the bennots would have sold to a consortium of fans and business men im sure but they never got offer from such parties. Gateshead nearly went bust after being sold to some charlatans aroun...

Been reading comments on this thread and theres various opinion's on fan ownership and some benefactor taking over but has any middle ground been tabled i.e. a consortium, gateshead and barrow are operated this way. No one has a majority share, with ownership split way, each owning 20% including fan...

I saw most of the game on BT Sport. Quite honestly those who stayed at home missed nowt. A very dull game with little goalmouth action. Also reminded me how ineffective Adam Campbell is. AC had a poor game but he wasn’t the only one to be fair. He’s a very important part of their set up and had a d...

Major investment would be a gamble, but one we would have to take (if the opportunity arises), if our ambition is to progress through the leagues. We're clearly at the limit of what we can achieve with the current model - and there's no shame in that. AFC Wimbledon (21st League Two) Chesterfield (N...

You need a bit of luck, I think, to be able to really kick on. Other than that it seems patience is the key. For an example of the kind of luck you need, look at Exeter's games against Manchester United which seemed to give them the finances to really develop. That along with gradual, organic progr...

The problem isn’t always who we sell to, it’s who they then sell to. We’ve had one offer of investment in 11 years, from the parasite that put us in this position. I’d be extremely hesitant to accept any major investment. You make a good point. A part of me is content to keep turning up to watch NL...

I question that the 'national league' should actually be a national league anyway. It's a recipe for financial disaster stories and we shouldn't have non-league sides having to do monster journeys on limited budgets. Expand the football league to 100 sides, and below that, make football regional. A...

Just had a friend lose their job with GAS whilst on holiday, feel for the staff working there & not having a job especially in the current climate. Hope they all get sorted. This is the real tragedy, not Spennymoor Town. People are losing their livelihoods at a time of economic uncertainty, and we ...
