Wouldn't it be great to have "Darrell, Darrell" to the tune of "Harold, Harold" rumbling round the ground. Show some support to the man who pretty much singlehandedly rescued us from our lowest point and has since given us support. Remember his quote that he's only here for the fans? Let's start supporting him. He's not worthy to clean Harold's boots , now Harold was a legend Depends which Harold you are referring to? As a youngster I remember Harold Jarmen as a tricky winger turning fullbacks inside out. Many of our younger fans will only remember Matt Harrold and singing that ditty. The former is a legend, the latter a mere fans favourite. Darrell Clarke probably sits somewhere in the middle of them, I am aware your vitriol towards him wont allow that as an opinion however that's how I see things - UTG

They have already, 7800 at last home game and 800 of them were from Walsall. Wimbledon will only bring about 150 to 200 so that will be a good gauge, but lets remember they count season ticket holders whether they are there or not What some buy a ST & don't attend? I rarely attend evening games. My lad hasn't wanted to come to the last few home games because he's not been enjoying it.

I agree. But he obviously doesn`t. straight forward 4 4 2 no mucking around find a player on the wing who can actually cross the ball In to the box! Must be someone ? Developement squad ? Don’t care how old they are or how much experience they got can they cross the ball if yes get them on the pitch! I really think we are lacking an out and out winger option in the squad and is a position I'd like us to strengthen in January.

If you lad isn't going because he's not enjoying it, then I hope he's been given lots of chores on a Sat afternoon to get his mind right 😀 As I lad I had to do the weekend shopping,vacuum the livingroom, stairs & landing, clean the grate, fetch the coal & light the fire all before I was allowed to go to the game. 😂

Going anywhere with you is punishment enough but dragged to the Rovers? Bordering on child abuse if you ask me.

Even if he prefers it as an inside forward surely we’d be better off playing one of our wide men wide ?

Even if he prefers it as an inside forward surely we’d be better off playing one of our wide men wide ? He played mostly on the left cutting inside on his right foot. He would be classed as a 'winger', but I still think we could do with another option, one that will get to the by line and whip a cross into the box.

Yeah we haven’t had that this season , the opposition tuck their full backs in and it makes it really difficult to break through. Ask any defender or keeper what they hate and it’s big gaps between the Center half’s and full backs.

Many of our younger fans will only remember Matt Harrold and singing that ditty. The former is a legend, the latter a mere fans favourite. Darrell Clarke probably sits somewhere in the middle of them, I am aware your vitriol towards him wont allow that as an opinion however that's how I see things - UTG I was referring to the legendary Harold Jarman, not the merely hardworking Matt Harrold! Fair to say that Darrell is closer to the former than the latter in terms of what he has achieved!

Let's start supporting him. Love this idea - that chant would be great and he deserves it. Come on the Thatchers End....make it happen! I'm in the West being used as target practice by pidgeons. We don't sing unless you lot start it!
