Gary Smith
Boro lose their appeal to pay damages for tackle made by Gary Smith on a Manure player back in 2003:

Provided he is over his injury problems, then Darlington have got themselves a real good player.
Also back to his roots for Gary so happiness all round I should think.

Good luck, Gary and thanks for your efforts for the Bees. Shame about the injuries, but I'm sure that, if you stay injury free, you'll do a really good job for Darlo!![]()
Was really disapointed he left and Hunt stayed, would have liked to see him in League 1 with and against better players. But hey, in Andy we trust.
Hunt was exceptional in a majority of games he played in for us. I know which one of the two I'd have kept and AS seems to agree with me
The footballing side of things, which, given the massive upheaval of the past several months has understandably taken a back seat is almost ready to come to the fore and supporters will breathe a huge sigh of relief come 3pm on Saturday, after many, myself included wondered whether we'd see league football in Darlington again.
With only the skipper Steve Foster and Ian Miller along with four youth team lads retained, the squad is drastically different to that which ended last season, a mix of youth and experience all of whom have links to the local area are charged with stabilising the football club and battling bravely to stay in the division given the small but, for once, realistic budget that's been set. Chris Lumsdon, Gary Smith, and Jeff Smith will be the main new men to watch this season, with the former Smith already impressing in pre-season with some battling midfield displays and surging forward runs.
