An oldie returns


First post since I re-joined the forum.

As a lifelong Darlo fan who sponsored Moors for some time when they were at Moorlands in the early/mid 90's this is a game I really did not want to see drawn.

After I left Moors I got more involved with the running of a number of clubs, 1 of whom asked Jeff Hood for a reference. I still cherish his reply.

Moors gave me a love of none league football that has lasted since. (Sorry, but it is still hard to think of Darlo as none league), but I lost interest when the 2 clubs combined as I had lots of problems with Boro.
Thankfully I went about 4 years ago to the first game of the season at NFU in the season both got promoted and was reunited with Jeff shortly before he passed. Talking to him about Bob Faulkner, some of the players we had and some of the laughs helped reboot my feelings.

I have been to a few games since, and always watch when Moors are on TV, and from the way things are at the moment, it seems that Moors may be a league club before Darlo. No idea how that will have my head spinning !!!!!

Just wondered if there was anyone still about who was following the club in the days of Brogan, Phil Davies, Gillard, Cleggie, Fearon etc

Welcome back to supporting the Moors Ted.
Thanks for the kind words re my father Geoff Hood ( often spelt Jeff,even by my Mother for some reason I never fathomed!)
I still follow them and I’m sure my Father would be gobsmacked to see how well they are doing these days.

Fingers crossed for tonight.

Hi Ted

My earliest memories of the Moorlands revolve around the names you mentioned i.e. Fearon, Davies, Gillard et al. A far cry from today's exploits but no less fondly remembered for all that. Glad to hear you have come back in from the cold...
