Darlington (A) 20th Nov, 7:45pm. FA Cup 1st Round Replay

It wasn’t that good

Just nipping to get my neck brace for the second half

Remember they lost 5-1 to Brackley on Saturday and are missing a few players through internationals. I can’t see what people see in Clarke and what gives them optimism that he’ll turn it around.

Holden cant pass a good ball or even stick a tackle bottles everything

Lidl is weak as ■■■■

Clarke is bollocked already

We cant string pass’s together

Terrible atm

He’s got badges you know!!!

Yeah second part of that half was pretty poor with Robbo much busier albeit from just crosses.

Tonight highlights the miss of a ball playing CM, I’d consider getting Bates on at half time to add a bit of composure as Kins-Liddle is very limited in that regard to say the least.

What IS he ‘coaching’ this shower?
Worry about the result tonight, should it go to penalties, what, if any, practice has he put them through prior to the game?

There are myriad reasons why and how we got here, but pair a non league manager with a non league playing budget and you get non league performances, which will lead to…

Worst I’ve see us play all season, NO EFFORT, NO QUALITY, NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Walsall playing with 9 men. Liddle and Holden contributing nothing positive. Kinsella doing midfield on his own. Need Bates now.

Two very good players, Jules and Wes linked well when played together

Honest Lidl must be doing summat too keep getting in over hardey i feel for him so much as he looks such a great talent !

Fuck off @Swiftlydoseit i was asleep myself then untill my laptop pinged :joy:

As the half went on I literally only looked up if I hear the word “McDonald” in the vain hope he can create something.

I have got to say that Holden and Liddle have been two of Darlington’s most creative players.

Well that’s was poor - with Corbin promising free broadband then stuff it. I would not pay to watch or even if it was free watch free dross!!

Slow, stuttering, stop-start, lack of focus, dodgy attacks - and that’s just the streaming sites.
Only thing that’s looking lively tonight is my Norton malware blocker.

I know he’s got a few lately but Gordon is ■■■■ too. Reacts so late to everything, like it’s his first go up front.

Darlo are faster off and to the ball, winning every 50/50, at least trying to play on the ground.
We really are embarrasingly poor.

Even half, always knew Darlington were going to throw everything at us and we’ve coped comfortably. Need a bit more on the ball im 2nd half and we can put the tie to bed, fitness will also tell in final 20.

Well if you thought that the first half was bad, wait until DC gives his half time talk :joy:

The only thing even is the score KC.

Then again i suppose that`s all that matters.
