On this month’s pod, Adam is joined by John Vickerman and Wayne Raper as we reflect on Darlo’s 2–0 victory over Bedford Town and the continued playoff charge.

We wax lyrical about the red-hot Main and Maskell strike partnership, discuss what promotion to the National League might look like, and even dive into Darlo’s unexpected mention in Coronation Street.

Plus, there’s the return of the quiz...this time it’s Played for Both Clubs.

Enjoy.

Former Quakers keeper Sam Russell joins the pod. Sam spent three separate spells with Darlo and was of course between the sticks that famous day at Wembley in 2011. We chat about his career, from his days starting out at Boro and training with Mark Schwarzer all the way through to an emotional farewell at Barrow. Sammy also chooses his Ultimate Darlo 5 a side team, although he's got one eye on the bar afterwards!

Darlo are up and running for 2026 after a 3–1 win against Alfreton at Blackwell Meadows. Adam is joined by Northern Echo journalist Craig Stoddart and Darlington midfielder Will Hatfield, with Will providing an update on his ACL recovery two months on from his operation.

We also salute former loanee Charlie Lennon following his move to Barnsley, and, as ever, there’s the customary quiz to round things off. #DTID
