We did save our club though We just got demoted 4 leagues because our ex chairman failed to hand over the Football Share of the club and never signed over the CVA agreement. If we was a new club, why did the FA make us take on old debts of the club, if we were classed as a 'new club'. The only thing that is new about Darlo is our "football name" which is Darlington FC1883 LTD. We reverted back to our old name Darlington FC from Darlington 1883 in the summer after the whoppers at the FA forced a name change. We'll be back, don't know when. Don't know how, but we will be Positive thoughts.
Hope you are back as soon as possible Andy, Look at Wimbledon you can do the same and leap frog us.

That's just frigging typical of the FA. Right up there with the Milton Keynes thing. And the biggest own goal of them all. Sponsoring the Premier League in their power struggle with the Football League.

Alun Armstrong has turned Darlo down. He told Blyth they had to match the wages we offered him for him to stay.
They obliged and matched wages.
So we've turned our attentions to former Darlo & Grimsby striker Tommy Wright, who manages Nuneaton (who beat us 2-1 at the weekend) & he now looks odds on to join us as he still has a house in the area & his missus has a business here.
Not really sure how to take this to be honest. Surely we could have attracted better?!

Hasn't he done fairly well at Nuneaton? Hopefully he's a better manager than he was a player!

17th in the league, they're a full-time team aswell. Massively under-achieving. Wouldn't be thrilled if he became gaffer.

Conference North mate. So steady away, we've had 3 promotions, 1 loss in a play-off semi final and 1 rejection of being able to compete in the play-offs as our ground didn't mean standards to go up (This was last season). Tommy Wright has now turned us down after reading the negative reaction of fans about hos proposed appointment. All becoming a bit of a mess now. We're a joke, never dull at all. Hope you lot do the business against Cheltenham tonight. Never liked that club. So haway Town!!

Does anyone like Cheltenham? They must be the new Leeds, apart from arguably Forest Green I don't any club such low regard. Wright, Pell that smug little git of a manager of there's who coaches gamesmanship and cheating into them is possibly as despicable an individual as anyone else in football (including Dale Vince and John Terry). If Man U or Chelsea were to play FGR or Cheltenham I'd want Man U or Chelsea to win!
