I haven't posted on here before, but Darlington have just signed Mark Beck following his release from Yeovil. What is he like Carlisle/Yeovil fans?

Darlington have signed Mark Beck following his release from Yeovil. What is he like Wrexham fans?

No, no, no. I don't think you're actually noting any points I'm making. The football club that owned the 'golden share' did not go bust! Darlington Football Club were taken-over by DFC1883Ltd, who then needed to obtain the golden share from former-Chairman Raj Singh to operate under the playing...

Halifax and Chester went bust. Darlington FC didn't. Not saying we are more or less but those are the facts? Legally we are the same club, it's company law. The FA having to view us as a new club/being legally the same club are two different things. The FA have to recognise us as a new club...

Sorry Jemfy, but I'm going to have to disagree with you on a number of points. The club called Darlington 1883 now is the same club as Darlington Football Club, we are simply operating under a different playing name. DFC1883Ltd took over Darlington Football Club from DFC2009Ltd. The assets and...

We have today signed 27 year old centre half Kevin Burgess from Whitby Town on a two year contract. Burgess started off his career with us, playing once, and has since spent the previous 8 seasons at Whitby making 272 appearances and scoring 12 goals. Goalkeepers: Peter Jameson Defenders...

Thanks for all the messages! Can't help but feel that the football club is in a much stronger position than what it was when we achieved our first promotion (since becoming fans-owned) in April 2013. With little debt remaining and everything set for our move back to Darlington, its looking...

All but sold out our 1,700 allocation within a matter of hours. Only a few remaining for ST holders. Bamber Bridge have the remaining 300.

Howay man Dessy, you ain't fooling anybody by saying "we were lucky to come away with a point". We were unlucky to not come away with all three. Lancaster maybe should have scored at the end, but we should also have scored several well earlier in the game and had great chances after that. So...

How can you say we "probably should have lost right at the death"?! We 'probably should have' scored about 5 today, and on another day it would have been 5 with the chances we created! Lancaster rarely threatened, and their best chance came through a 20 yard strike at a CB in goal after...

Slightly concerned, yes. However, on the basis of the factors below I'm not worried. -287 5 year season tickets have been sold, meaning we can still rely on 250-350 season ticket sales a season (based on past sales figures). There will be increased season ticket uptake from the previous 3...

We didn't own the Arena.

We have raised £244,444 (excluding VAT) through 5 year season ticket sales, vice presidents packages, equity investments and donations. 287 packages have been sold, which means we will still get at least 250 season ticket holders per season IMO. This money will be used to upgrade the facilities...

The rugby club will be securing borrowed funding in order to upgrade the club-house and construct the car park. That is their share of things as far as I'm aware. They had to get a covenant lifted from the council in order to secure this funding. Regarding them receiving any money from us...

If we win on Saturday, then I'd expect 500/600 to make the trip. We brought around 350 there last season in October suffering a poor run of form.

It 'should' be able to be upgraded to Category A standard, yes. The main problem we face in upgrading the ground is the Northumbrian Water water pipe which runs from the North-West corner down to the South-East corner, it also needs 13 metre easement either side which cannot be built on. This...

Indeed, I expect Salford to win their 3 remaining games, this requires us to win our remaining 4 games. If this is to happen, then both teams will finish on 95 points but our superior goal difference will see us win the league. We play; Mossley (6th) (H), Lancaster City (12th) (A), Warrington...

Thank you, I really think we can kick on once we've moved home. The scope for increased crowds/sponsorship is huge. Unfortunately not!

Planning permission APPROVED for our move to Blackwell Meadows. Absolutely fantastic news. Looks like an initial 2,500 capacity with potential to expand to 3,000. Now we just need to see the results of our fundraising initiative, which smashed its initial target of £225k within 2 weeks. Target...

Darlington FC 5-2 Droylsden FC (Alan White 09', Adam Mitchell 20', Nathan Cartman 30', 49', Graeme Armstrong 33') Attendance: 1,236 The best first half I have seen us play since dropping down the leagues 3 years ago, which saw us lead 4-1. Second half was routine and lacked tempo with...
