Darlo Uncovered

I must admit I thought the 500 club offers we put on earlier in the year had gone a long way to lowering that debt (was it £60k he quoted at the Dolphin Centre?) - you've quoted £55k worth of extra income there - surely between that + the earlier fundraising it should be done now?

Looking like Leon's on his way too - Kev Burgess has posted something on his Twitter about it.

It was always Tommy's plan to give the two youngsters on the bench their debuts, apparently - I'm just not sure he was expecting the referee to blow the final whistle as soon as he'd sent them on

Their fans seem to want Kevin Davies sacked after spending a small fortune on players and overseeing seven defeats on the bounce recently.... now I've gone and cursed it for us! Ah good, I won't have to take ALL the blame for this after I highlighted their seven game losing streak and five games wi...

A late spike would be very welcome - I think there's a few people waiting until their old ones finish before kicking off a new one, so fingers crossed.

Probably a good job they might only sneak into the playoffs in 7th, meaning all their games would be away, isn't it?

A huge thanks to the camera man as well it must be said. Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t it a fan that captured the footage and shared it to be used in this completion ? Must have been and also a great still photo of Styche & Brown in mid-air. I usually manage to find video highlights of matches...

The squad last year (which lost 6-1 to Corby) was: Emile Heskey, Kevin Davies, Stan Varga, Eider Gudjohnsen, William Gallas, Mark Crossley, Dion Dublin, Darren Anderton, Danny Mills, Chris Waddle, Stiliyan Petrov, Trevor Sinclair, Alan Stubbs, Danny Murphy, Matty Holland, Nigel Winterburn, Ian Harte...

Being managed by Sir Geoff Hurst as well, it says here:

What an absolutely amazing day this could turn out to be - could almost bring in another £20k itself!

How do you "go for a good fa cup run"?

We could win a game in it, for starters....

Think 80k is going to be a bit of a stretch, since it seems to be slowing slightly down somewhat. Somewhere the right side of 50k would be my guess for the final figure, which would be great going Closing in on 200 contributors :thumbup: Wonder who's going to get the 200th?! Always the way fundrais...

Don't suppose the 11th is an option for Southport? It's the only Wednesday I can make

What time was this, roughly? It'll give me a clue where in the error log to start looking.

Anyone know what the incidental music is on these broadcasts? The funky Arabian style guitar riff thing, at the start and end. A colleague of mine at work made that (there's actually a longer version) with the intention that I'd use it as a DFR intro on the actual commentary broadcasts. I never got...

Scratch that, I will be there - but I won't be live-tweeting it.

Try it now. I broke something

Looking back through our recent tweet history on DFR I don't see anything along these lines - can you expand on what's given you this impression?

I don't think anyone, other than Pears, played anywhere near their best, but a win is a win. Couple of months ago we would have loved to be in this position! Exactly this...as an exile who watches Darlo on the 21st equivalent of Ceefax, I was checking every update through my fingers up until a coup...

Looks like a dealbreaker from the early replies then - thanks all

Can I just get a quick roll call of people using Tapatalk to access the forum on a regular-ish basis? I'm investigting new forums (see my other post) and I'm wondering whether a lack of Tapatalk support would be considered a deal-breaker. For those using it, if a new forum supported responsive (mean...

Thanks for the replies everyone - having looked into setting up a Discourse for something else I've decided against going ahead with this for now, but I'll continue exploring options.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it !! phpBB ain't broke, it's just old. I should at least try to upgrade it to 3.2 if I end up keeping it but I'm worried about the integration with the rest of the site. There's a demo forum here if you fancy a look at what Discourse might look / work like: https://try...

Just be mindful of the new General Data Protection Regulations which are coming at end of May 2018..... I am not sure how any Data Controller can comply fully with the new regulations. I have been involved both in a business and a voluntary sports club for children and neither organisation are able...

Evening all, As part of a long overdue refresh of this place I intend to introduce a new piece of forum software to replace phpBB. Feel free to suggest other (free!) options in this thread if you want but the one I've got my eye on at the moment is Discourse .... ...the self hosted one, not the one ...
