Urgent request from the club
By Ray Simpson
For safety reasons, Darlington Football Club would now urge supporters not to visit Blackwell Meadow...
There have been several instances this week of Darlington FC fans entering the building site without permission, and putting themselves, and those working on the site, at risk. We appreciate the growing sense of anticipation amongst Darlington FC fans of the move to Blackwell Meadows, but that is far outweighed by safety considerations.
The contractors and the rugby club have in turn asked the football club to request fans not to come to Blackwell Meadows for safety reasons, and we have wholeheartedly agreed with that request.
The official website and the matchday programme will continue to publish updates of the building work.
