£83,726 from 406 Investors-just chipped in with my bit.

A couple of Trivia questions: In the 1910/11 Season Darlington reached the last 16 of the FA Cup but of the 16 clubs left in at that stage Darlington were the only club to have done what? John Spuhler,Harry Bell,Ken Morton,Richard Davis and Tom Reynolds formed Darlington's forward line during the 1...

Hi Spyman-no this is an incorrect answer I'm afraid.

Tony-yes this is the correct answer-well done!!

I'll reveal the answer to Question 1 later.

You may well be right in that but it is to do with something they had in common before they came to Darlington.

Didn't we score 5 against Cheltenham before halftime when we played them in the Conference 89/90 season No, goals in each half https://youtu.be/2ZKAACbIQ7k Thanks Gazza-I was at that game-great atmosphere!!

GOAL: 6-0 to Darlington. Gillies. That’s DFC’s 50th league goal of the season

Darlington have this game won before half-time, this time Josh Gillies scoring when one-on-one with the keeper. 5-0

GOAL: 5-0 to Darlington.

GOAL: 4-0 to Darlington. Thompson. 42mins

Darlington make it 3-0 on 37 minutes, back-heeled in by Reece Styche after good work by Luke Trotman. Think a defender got the final touch when attempting to clear off the line, but that’s Styche’s goal, his tenth for the club in 15 games

GOAL: 2-0 to Darlington. Thompson penalty.

Penalty to Darlington, Wheatley brought down by the keeper after a Syers pass

20' First Ferriby chance, Harrison sliding in after a ball over the top by Forrester. Heaton had ducked under the ball letting it bounce through to Pears, but Harrison was ready to pounce but didn’t get enough on the effort. 1-0

Darlington take the lead on 16 minutes, Dave Syers tapping in from close-range into an empty net after Stephen Thompson drilled the ball across goal. 1-0

We play Tamworth(A) on Tuesday!!

FT: 1-0. They left it late, but Dave Syers’ stooping header after a Josh Gillies free-kick in the 88th minute gives Darlington victory over Curzon Ashton, and their fifth win in six games. It wasn’t pretty, but Quakers won’t complain.

Darlington take the lead in the 88th minute after a free-kick on the left was swung in by Gillies, after being won by Thompson, and headed home by Dave Syers. 1-0

GOAL: 1-0 to Darlington.

I should be able to make this game as well. Two good pubs on Lower Gungate namely Sir Robert Peel and The Kings Ditch if anyone's about that evening. I'm aiming to get to Tamworth around 17.30pm and will head up to those pubs mentioned earlier.

FT: 2-1. That’s a very good result for youthful Darlington team, they’d have taken a point beforehand - Kidderminster haven’t lost a league away game since September. Heaton and Thompson with the goals

Thompson scores in the first minute of added time to put Darlington ahead, dribbling into the penalty, drilling the ball low and hard. 2-1
