Struggling Darlington have been given an extra fortnight to find a new buyer.

The Quakers' administrators, Brackenbury Clark and Co, have confirmed that, despite there being a number of interested parties, no offer had been accepted by the initial deadline on Monday.

In a statement, the club said: "This decision has been made because the administrator is continuing to hold discussions with interested parties which have not come to any definitive conclusion although there are a number of parties who are willing to pursue their interest further.

"As such, the additional time has been provided to allow these discussions to continue in the expectation of firstly giving these discussions to the opportunity to translate into formal offers for the club and secondly to give time for any other potential bidders to come forward.

"It is not a deadline at which point the club will be closed should no offer have been accepted by then.

"As such, the club will continue as it has done and fulfil the remainder of its fixtures regardless of any offers."
