With all due respect, I wouldn't be putting that tenner on anytime soon.
We probably should have gone 3-1 up at HT, after Beck hit the bar, Syers had a shot tipped wide & Elliot almost dropping the ball in his net!
Second half we added another two, and Elliot had to save well from Gillies (x2)...
So as mentioned above we have signed Scott Fenwick, as well as right-back Jordan Richards (24) after being released by Hartlepool. Played around 60/70 games for them in the FL. I suspect he will be back-up for Marrs with Hunter covering for Brown & Collins in the centre.
We do also have a...
Darlington have signed centre-half Josh Heaton, 20, from Bamber Bridge. Has Conference North experience with Tamworth & Stalybridge.
Have only seen him in two pre-season games recently, but from what I saw he is talented. Very strong in the air too.
Good to see we have addressed our weaknesses...

Forwards...
As David Curries Mullett has mentioned above, we have signed centre-half Dominic Collins following his release from Fylde on a two-year deal.
Seems like he was a real fans favourite over there for the past 2 years, so I'm quite pleased with this signing as he may be exactly what we need.
I...
Maybe we should have learnt after the first goal, or the second, or the third. All scored on the counter. Curzon were just ruthless in both boxes, we were so, so poor defensively.
Some individuals need to take the blame, however they aren't aided by the fact we commit so many bodies forward at...
With all due respect, you have mentioned that Danny Rowe isn't getting paid anywhere near the Ebbsfleet players' wage (£2,000 p/w), but even if it is just half that amount it is still obsence amounts of money at this level of football.
You have also mentioned that Harry Winter left Fylde to...
Back in September one of your fans on here claimed that Kidderminster were operating on a budget of around £300k, with it being sustained by revenue through Birmingham College, previous transfer fees, sell-ons etc.
That sounds about right for a full-time side paying, on average, £400 p/w? It...
With all due respect, with the comment "a run for their money", I would say we have around a mid-table budget. Certainly not to the levels of Kidderminster, Fylde, Nuneaton, Stockport, Harrogate, Salford, Halifax etc. We pay our players - as an average - around £250 p/w. Obviously some will be...
Halifax fans were asked to remain in the ground on police advice.
The catering is also provided by the Rugby Club, which we all agree is over-priced.
But as DL5 has pointed out, at least you managed to get served a pint of Bitter! We all agree that the ground needs work but we are starting it...
Well despite asking for a bigger allocation Halifax have returned 250 un-sold tickets for our Boxing Day clash. We had shifted 130 of these by 11.30 this morning but unsure how many we have sold since then.
Quite surprised at some of the comments made on their forum about our ground...
Darlington have taken Danny Racchi on trial. In all honesty we're pretty well stocked in the middle of the park, unless he can play elsewhere? Thoughts York, Torquay, Wrexham fans?
1,141 Darlington at Harrogate today in a crowd of 2,172. Certainly didn't look to be more than 1,000 Harrogate fans there.
I do think possibly the numbers were scaled down as our stand and standing area which we had been segregated in was running over-capacity.
Nevermind, a fine team...
Surprised to hear that Kidderminster travelled up to the north-east on Thursday and stayed over-night before playing us on the Friday evening.
Must have a fair bit of backing to be able to stay full-time and do that?
