Hi guys, Looking forward to the visit on Saturday, should be a good game and a good chance to get hammered in the town beforehand. Anyways, on behalf of Darlington FC fans/players and management - I am coordinating the facility to raise money for your injured player Matty Hughes, here's a look at the original details I posted on our fans page. www.facebook.com/groups/843629039005665/permalink/2072106559491234/I've set a target of raising £100 and I've arranged to meet Scott Burton at HT to get this handed over. Well done to you lot aswell for helping out with raising funds for the lad aswell. See you at the weekend. |

Well done Andy.
Good to see real fans doing something good for the players at this level. They're just like us, real people with mortgage/rent concerns etc. Unlike the cosseted brats from the Premier League.
Good to see us playing Darlington again. Good bit of history between the two clubs. I was born in Darlington, but moved to the Chester area when I was five or six. So it's always a fixture I've looked out for.
Enjoy your day Saturday. Except for the 90 odd minutes mid afternoon.

So we want to help, no matter what the amount is - Anything is better than nothing and I can only hope everyone contributes to a worthy cause. Born in Darlington were you? I feel your pain there mate. I fully expect Chester to thump us at the weekend, but nevertheless - It's a game I am looking forward to watching. The club have now got involved. Building up some momentum. Shame I didn't think of doing this a week ago. darlingtonfc.co.uk/news/darlington-fan-organises-collection-for-injured-chester-player |

And this is what Football should be about, rivalry for 90 minutes and then back to real life. A terrific gesture from you all that will no doubt be gratefully received by Matty and his family. A good news story in a country full of shitness, deceit and politicians. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 |
