    You've got to feel sorry for Darlo. They would be in the play-offs if they had more than 500 seats.

    Are you this bitter and negative about everything in life or just BFC?

    Are you that over sensitive about everything in life?

    I wonder what the definition of permanent is? When we were at Crawley 2 years ago ( not that it is a game that can be remembered fondly), The stand which ran along the whole of 1 touch line seemed temporary to me and had a tarpaulin (type) roof.

    It strikes me that if Crawley were to drop down the pyramid they could dismantle that stand to reduce costs. I can't recall much about the he opposite stand, where the dressing rooms were but it did not seem to hold many seats.

    Didcot Town had a similar problem when the briefly graced the Southern League Premier division. They had to put extra seats in to secure their promotion. They were relegated after 1 season after Windsor and Elton folded and their results exsponged. Didcot had beaten them twice and the loss of the 6 points put them in one of the relegation places.
