Hi guys,

Darlington fan here, making my first visit to the Ricoh on Saturday and I was just wondering where's the best place to sit etc?

Thanks!

It really depends what you are looking for, if you want Atmosphere try to get close to block 16 and 15 by the scoreboard.

If you want a good view Id say halfway line which I think is block 21 / 20?

Hi, why you coming to the game from all that way?

I agree with nick. Atmosphere by the scoreboard block 15 and half at line is block 20 for a good view.

Block 16, Row AA or higher; you'll get view and atmosphere that way!

Not sat down and worked out costs yet, but I imagine it'll run up a good few grand!

Be be all worth it though, I'll be having my Darlo shirt on so don't be afraid to say hello!

Where are Darlington playing now?
After being given a 4 league demotion from the FA. We started in the Northern League, we've had two promotions in three seasons and are now in the Evo-Stik Premier. Three leagues below the football league.

Moving back to the town some time this season after spending three seasons in exile playing at Bishop Auckland.

Haven't Darlington Mowden Park Rugby (same division as Cov) purchased your old ground? 25,000 stadium yet average under 400, what was the thinking behind that?

Good luck Andy. Will look out for the Darlington shirts. Let us know later in the season how it's going. And we thought we have had it tough recently but a 4 league demotion is excessive and demoralising

I'm from Darlington as well Andy but I am a Skyblues fan. I'm travelling down on Saturday morning to the match but staying overnight. When I can't get to see Cov. I watch Darlo. Moving back to the town is on hold at the moment because of the council. Does that ring a bell Cov fans.

It gets pretty rammed Andy, no guarantee that you and your mate will be able to find seats next to each other. ;)

Joking aside, have a good day mate - and enjoy your 92 experience. I think you should do it in fancy dress, personally. A pantomime horse would probably be most appropriate for the Ricoh.

Good luck and wish us all some goals. It's got 0-0 written all over it for me.

He's not as bad as Raj Singh; the bloke who refused to sign a CVA which caused our demotion.

George Reynolds, George Houghton & Raj Singh. Nothing but utter c****.
