Gateshead game postponed

Darlington FC -- Covid Statement

One of our first team players has earlier this week tested positive for Covid, and so therefore in accordance with the relevant PHE and National League protocols, he and the rest of the squad have now gone into self-isolation.

This therefore means that Wednesday night’s home game against Gateshead is postponed, and we await league advice on Saturday’s home game against Hereford and the away game at Leamington on Tuesday 8th December.

We would like to wish the player concerned a speedy recovery, and also thank our opponents and the League for their co-operation and understanding.

Anyone who has bought match passes for the game on Quaker TV will be refunded.

No new date has yet been set for the Gateshead game.

The 50/50 draw will still take place on Wednesday night at the planned kick off time.
