Darlington v York City

Quakers are looking for a derby win when York City come to Blackwell Meadows on Saturday.

Quakers come into the game against Steve Watson’s side on the back of an FA cup exit at Chester, but there were still plenty of positive signs in the defeat – as assistant manager Darren Holloway points out:

Please note that the game will be segregated

Team news:

Jarrett Rivers is expected to have recovered from illness.

There were one or two knocks at Chester, but the players concerned should have recovered.
