Re: Tom Bonner
My understanding was that Tom signed for us on non contract as we needed cover on the bench, he had been training with dartford since the start of the season to keep his fitness up, and the manager wanted him to sign, not sure how Dowse and the board can be blamed if he decided to go elsewhere afte...

6 out of 6!
Another great performance today. The perfect start to a season. A convincing 3-0 win over Ashford and it could have been more. All the goals were very well taken too. This team seems to get better with every game. Goals apart, the over all performances have been very good as well. They keep the ball...

Re: Statement from the board - 19 September 2023
"Brass neck" meaning.
As defined by the Cambridge Dictionary.
"A type of behaviour where someone is extremely confident about their own actions but does not understand that their behaviour is unacceptable to others."
So there you have it.

And before anyone pulls me up on this. There is an Alan Dowson thread but that wasn't the one which was removed.

Re: Statement from the board - 19 September 2023
Explanation then is required if nothing was racial, homophobiac, libellous , untrue or went against any forum law. My sentiments exactly. There was nothing untoward about the thread. People were expressing an opinion that's all. I don't necessarily agree with the comments as I believe sacking yet a...

DARTFORD 4 ENFIELD TOWN 1
Thoroughly enjoyable game today. It wasn't a case of if we'll score but when. And on the half hour captain Lizzie Adams duly obliged by converting a penalty which she also won. In the second half we went 2-0 up from an excellent header by the same lady who may have had a hand in the third. Unfortuna...

Re: FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Welling Sat 16 Sep 2023
In all games we have won 2 in the last 20 how long do we continue? Especially as every interview he seems to have is a carbon copy of the previous ones "individual error" "no leader" "defensive mistake". I'm not one to normally comment but when you see the solution com...

Re: FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Welling Sat 16 Sep 2023
Our past successes have been built on stability. Not by sacking managers every other season. It's not the Dartford way. Steve King and Alan Dowson are two top managers. So what's the point in bringing in yet another successful manager at this level. The club will just be wasting the man's time. The ...

For those who cannot absorb content in it's entirety. Our attendances are dropping and I'm basically going public with what I hear from the man and woman in the street on a regular basis. If people want to close their eyes to it then that's their problem. If I was running a business and losing custo...

MILLWALL 1 DARTFORD 2
With the ticket office at Dartford station being closed and the queue for the one available ticket machine being as long as your arm, I opted for the bus to Woolwich Arsenal. I then boarded the DLR and made it up as I went along by alighting at Poplar, before jumping back on the same train, as the d...

Re: St Albans City v Dartford Sat 9 Sep 2023
Using last season's league table as a guideline.
30 x Dowse post-match interviews = relegation.
Based on loses ofcourse. But failure to win games and we won't get away with much more than that.

Re: St Albans City v Dartford Sat 9 Sep 2023
There were heated discussions in the training room last night. After the players trooped off to the community pitch it appeared to be Moussa Diarra who remained behind and was remonstrating with Christian Jolley, who was trying to calm him down, and Dowse, over tactics relayed to the class through t...

Re: Dartford v Slough Town Tue 5 Sep 2023
By the time Slough scored the winner, our boys looked exhausted. Thinking back ten years to the Premier games, our fitness levels were head and shoulders above what we have now. Noble, Harris, Bradbrook, Burns, Hayes, Bonner - all consummate (semi) professionals who never stood with hands on hips. ...
