Re: Warrington
Pretty much agree with the above.Why on earth did Gowling take Moke off who was having one of his best games for us, instead of Salkeld who was giving the ball away far too much and was poor last night imo.Regarding Tommy, we have a goalkeeping coach and surely it's glaringly obvious he has to star...

Re: Darlington V Rushall
Previously depleted Rushall have brought in several new signings recently, including some young EFL loanees, who helped improve them enormously in their victory at Boston this week. Also don't want to scare anyone but... Last month: Rushall Olympic 5 Chorley 0 This month: Chorley 8 Darlington 0 Gul...

Re: Forum
When travelling on the fan's coaches we used to look out for Lance Robson's bright yellow E-type Jag passing us at some point, which as he had surgery on Saturday mornings it virtually always did. As we had players from York, Grimsby and Leeds areas also I doubt they came to Darlo to get the bus to...

Re: Hazel and Sukar

Re: Hazel and Sukar
So Hazel has his move lined up and now risks it falling through as now he’s still needed here. What a way to treat a player, tell him he’s not needed then expect him to risk missing out on his move…. Absolutely nothing wrong with holding off on the move while Asante builds his fitness and Nelson is...

Re: Forum
It was a main reason why the Wright experiment didn’t work. Even if a couple of the new signings are moving into a club house in Darlington it still doesn’t do much for team spirit if they are all making their own way to a game. It would probably include the manager and assistant too. It’s not good...

Of course he's played for Wigan, but not for a while now. So why mention Wigan in your message about Williams?

Williams doesn't play for Wigan. I think it's a bit rich Wane saying that England are going for a clean sweep over Tonga. Let's face it, we should be thumping them and we have been very underwhelming in the first 2 tests. Not impressed. Did he not play 179 games for Wigwam mostly with Wane as his m...

Re: Rugby League
Totally disgusted but not at all shocked that Wane brings back Williams for the 3rd test.
Simply because he is skipper? Or Wigwam?
Mickey Lewis has been the best English player on the pitch over 2 games, so why drop the player of the series?
