I hope that it Man Utd do sack Carrick they do it so that he still has time to apply for the Darlo job before the closing date
I’ve been trying to work out how many Darlo managers I’ve seen over the last 25+ years.

Missed anyone?
Only question needed for the interviews.
Who will you sign to play centre back and how do you plan to convince him to come?
Best and most plausible answer gets the job (unless it’s Lee Cattermole)
I wonder if people truly understand how far money actually goes when you’re trying to run a football club
Surely the only acceptable answer is: The lowest ranked team left, at home and then for good measure I’d like the opposition to have an injury crisis and a few then the players who are left come down with food poisoning the night before the game

I’ve digested the game now. Incredibly poor for the second goal, even with the wind disadvantage the defending is rotten there. But credit due for not caving, we could easily have lost it from there and many I suspect thought we would
Richards talking about if his backside on Sky Sports again. It’s a red card, whether there was ‘minimal contact’ is irrelevant, he’s kicked out at Fernandes because he’s a petulant child
We all know the profile of the player(s) we need. It getting those kinds of players is clearly a problem
Maybe if the Ipswich keeper had started at the same time as everyone else, rather than 10 minutes later then they wouldn’t be in this mess
I’m in no way defending an uninspiring start to the season, but Kilsby, Platt, Lees, Howells and Hatfield being out injured is half of your first choice starting 11 taken away. It’s like playing with one foot tied behind your back
I’ve watched bad Darlington teams and this isn’t one of them. Yes, things need to gel up front and we need a proper organiser in defence, but it’s not irredeemable. Losing players of the quality of Platt and Howells today was huge
