FA Trophy Darlington - travel, pubs etc.

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Just bought two seniors for £10. That is a silly price considering we are skint.

Being a 'senior' myself i'm not complaining, but had expected to pay £8. Maybe because it's basically in the middle of the 'poorest' month financially for many people ( allegedly ), that has been taken into account?.
And if they are able somehow, to have adequate catering provisions available, that could also generate much needed revenue?.

The last round £5 ticket game was worth it and I hope for another good performance and result!
The club to be fair to them have kept season card prices reasonable imo I was expecting an increase for this season tbh

Darlington are a proper team. A real team. Unlike Bromley. No history and no support.

According to their own website, they have some interesting supporters too.

Have you ever stood in a crowd when this has happened?
I was at a game many years ago and a female ref was subjected to vile comments.
It was shocking.

In the 80's although being a small club, they gained notoriety for having a 'crew' who surprised a lot of bigger teams who played there. Possibly their siblings etc who still carry that mantle?.

Personally, no - and I'm not in a hurry to find out.
If true, let's hope these Neanderthals decide to give Roots Hall a miss.

 

[united we stand]

Cos it's sh!t!!!

Using that logic none of us would ever enter roots hall again

 

[Shrimper]

Will be getting 3 tickets tomorrow

At least the south upper where I sit is an unobstructed view and no worries of those bum numbing back breaking wooden seats!

Under the rules the away club have to agree with any price planning. Found that out in the last round when I tried to do a deal for the CC. Which didn't open in the end.

Unfortunately, we've been given the bad name here. It was the Scarborough fans that predominantly caused the game to be stopped for 35 minutes.

I agree Darlo have done the right thing by appealing for witnesses for the couple of idiots directing comments to her in the 1st half.

Anyways, looking forward to the long trip down. Fully expect 3/400 to make the trip. Nice to go back to a proper football club and not some of the rabble we've attended since being demoted in 2012.

Possibly their offspring I think you mean! Although some of the old crew probably have sisters who are a bit handy...

From what I can glean Emma Carney was switched sides having been abused first by Darlo - and then subjected to same from Scarborough.
Not a good look, eh?

Oh not at all, disgraceful behaviour by some. But it's went out into the media as though it was all Darlo's fault.

Failed to mention the racial abuse 1 of our strikers received too. It's with the right authorties though, so hopefully those responsible get the punishment needed.

This fixture is

SATURDAY 3PM, 14TH JANUARY

A traditional time of day, weekend etc, what's not to approve of?

And what are folks going to do if not attend? Watch Jeff Snelling or go shopping?

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Mods, can you amend the thread title to show date of fixture etc,

We WERE a proper football club, past tense, the fans are still proper magnificent, not sure about the people that run it though.
Perhaps you can ask your forum why they haven't approved me Andy, Exile Shrimp in Darlo and all that

The east stand not the trophy!

The east stand not the trophy!

Hmm, the plastic seats in the front 6 rows are okay, the back row as standing is okay, the front row of the original seats is okay too, toilets are rank but bar is okay.
Just try and think of it as an experience to be remembered fondly when we are are in concrete and steel of FF.
