Unfortunately I am afraid we may dissapoint. We have given up scoring goals.

High balls into the box should suffice. Our keeper can't catch, I think his muscles are too big for him to be able to close his hands.

Problem is we are very wasteful and aimless with our deliveries. Dont think the game at your place will be pretty at all.

I live in Stockport, pretty much the only area in Greater Manchester not served by the trams. I could park in Sainsburys I suppose.

Horrible day to be a Darlo fan. Before I start, I am very aware that someone at the club has made a mistake and that rules are rules but this one is pretty rediculous.

As DSL has said If we'd won the league we wouldn't have this problem we could upgrade to Cat A by March 2018. Because we are in the playoffs we suddenly need pieces of Cat A ground grading in and completed by March 2017? Even though Ferriby were allowed to compete and be promoted with a ground that doesn't even reach the minimum capacity of Cat B? When we became aware we asked if we could bring in temporary seating to solve the issue. The answer was no. Meaning there would have been no time to complete the ground works for a permenant stand anyway (even if we had the money).

In addition we are not one of the side who spunk all of their money on the pitch and nothing on facilities. Fans have invested over 300k in Blackwell Meadows to bring it up to Cat B standard and on 21st April we have a fans forum where the board were to reveal the long term plans, costs and fund raising required to bring Blackwell Meadows up to FL standard.

If we make the playoffs (ie top 5) and there's every chance we will. Football and fan ownership will have lost to pencil pushers to who the wording of a rule is more important than its spirit.

The Mickey Mouse officials running this Mickey Mouse league always take the hardest line with the REAL football clubs. It's almost as if they're trying to prove something..........:bdick:

It seems Former Alfreton boss Nicky Law who is now part of the recruitment process at Burnley has expressed an interest in Curzon Ashton`s Ryan Hall along with Stockport http://nonleaguedaily.com/latest-transfer-news/clarets-interest-in-curzon-winger.html

He has been playing exceptional at times.

Feel sorry for Curzon. They have probably the best manager in division who I think could actually get that club on 200 gates into conf national, but they will always lose key players at this level to others and spend time rebuilding

Cant say im shocked about darlington. Want them up but yeah north feriby were allowed up on promise of upgrades getting done which never materislised so in light of this the fa are obviously getting tougher. Ive always thought conference north clubs grounds should be not far off conf premier standards and conf premier grounds near football league standard and so on. Also a club getting darlingtons crowds 500 seats would seem a small amount. If it costs alot of time and money to appeal why bother? Money would be better spent elswhere

Yes John Flanagan has done a superb job.

Diabolical game of football really.

Alty have outplayed us all while playing just like they usually do........just two atrocious teams, full of dreadful sloppy play.

Took lead totally undeserved, then alty got a pen to level, they deserve the lead really. We turned up half hearted and lazy so far.

Fair play alty fans....afew came and cheered up a dreadful half with plenty of sarcastic songs at own sides situation

Sounds a terrible game from the commentary. Our commentator has been quite scathing about Curzon's number 8 and our Clayton McDonald

Good with for Trinity. Still a tough ask, mind, with the games they've got to play.

Well Trinity have put the pressure on us for tomorrow.
If Darlington would be so kind to donate us 3 points tomorrow it would be much appreciated now they have nothing to play for?

Poor and costly defeat for Salford though.
Can see Gainsborough getting something from both Brackley and FCUM too.

FC Fydle have today confirmed this season's CN league is officially the most abysmal on record. Neil Aspin's Shaymen of 4 years ago would have absolutely trollied both of today's sides and pissed it to the title. I'd say both of Nuneaton and Hyde from that season would have done the same.

On a side note, one of the Fydle fans interviewed for the website preview is 44 but says he'd never been to their matches until December 2015 and he is now chairman of their supporters club. That tells us so much.
Soon as Oyston fucks off they'll never see this guy again or any of the other 1500 Blackpool fans riding the bandwagon. :bdick:
