Maybe we will find a gem, however - see above.notgnilrad wrote:Maybe we will find a gem in one of them and might get a nice fee, I don't think the attendances are going to get any worse really we are down to the hardcore anyway.
We'd never get promoted with "the youngsters" it's simply not possible, you still might enjoy it though, I can't argue with you therenotgnilrad wrote:Who knows we might surprise a few teams and get promoted anyway but hey ho I'd still enjoy the ride.
Well, the hardcore fan base we have now is based on people turning out to watch a proper team compete. Minimalize the team and watch a huge percentage of these fans lose interest. and yes, we DO really need everyone. I admire your sentiments but your idea (to me ) doesn't hold water.notgnilrad wrote:Also I don't care what league Darlington is in, I have supported them for over 35 years now and will support them then any shitty Premier League team no matter what League we are in. If people are going to run off when the going gets tough then do we really need them anyway.
