Re: News from around the National League South
Jason Prior has signed for Havant. Fully expect them to be back up towards the top of the table, especially if he stays fit.

Re: Who do the real Dartford Fans want as the new Manager ?
Dowson is my number 1. Knows what it takes to get out of this league and has been successful wherever he has managed. I'm sure he will have contacts in order to assemble a strong and competitive squad.

Re: Steve King
https://www.dartfordfc.com/steve-king-further-statement/ However, Dartford FC is built on stability and the wider footballing and supporter family within the community.

Re: Steve King
https://www.dartfordfc.com/steve-king-further-statement/ Following a lengthy discussion at our board meeting last night the directors made the unanimous decision to dispense with the services of Steve King after a little over two and a half years. In that time our league position has been a source o...

Re: Steve King
More surprised that Hess has been replaced than Kingy has gone. But 2+2 still equals 3 in my opinion as regards that. I don't think he has, no announcement from Dover and their forums seem to confirm it's a website error. Either way I hope this gets resolved sooner so we can start preparing for nex...

Re: Steve King
King's contract ran until the end of the 23/24 season, so there must have been a seriously good reason to sack him. Obviously we aren't privy to what's gone on behind the scenes (until the club's further statement), but purely based on performances I think this is a harsh dismissal. King's league r...

Re: Steve King
Kedwell didn't exactly set the world alight at Cray. Sevenoaks looked doomed under Collins. Collins at Dartford could well find us in a relegation battle. On the other hand Kedwell would probably keep us up. But should such an appointment be made it would represent a seismic shift in the ambitions ...

Re: Steve King
I thought Andy Hessenthaler was Dover manager
https://www.doverathletic.com/staff/andy-hessenthaler/
No idea who it is going to be, whoever it is won't have the player contacts as well as King does so we are going to lose the majoirty of our squad and it's going to be one hell of a rebuild.

Re: Steve King
Give a young manager a chance Micky Collins did a decent job at Sevenoaks plus also a Dartford legend. Dean, I don’t honestly think Micky Collins would be the right person for the job. As much as he had success with Sevenoaks Town I don’t believe he has the experience for anything higher than that ...

Re: Steve King
Personally I cannot believe it. Half a season and he gets us to the playoff final when we was close to the relegation places when he took over. First completed season after the disrupted COVID one he once again gets us to playoffs. Something must've happened behind the scenes for this to be the resu...

Re: Season 2022 - 23
Hopefully we get news of our retained list this week, although expecting it will be next week.
I also would like an interview with some updates as we haven't heard from Kingy from a while

Dorking and Ebbsfleet gone to extra time Ebbsfleet scoring what looked to be a winner in the 93rd, originally 6 minutes added on however their fans decided to throw a flare on the pitch. Dorking then equalised in the 100th minute. Dorking just scored early on in extra time. That idiot who chucked t...

Re: Dartford v Chippenham Thu 12 May 2022 19:45
Some interesting tweets here from Robinson and Porter. Can't see either of them being here next season if I'm honest, seems they are as confused as we are about some of the team selections. Would be a real shame as Robinson is still a top player and just got unlucky with injuries. Porter has been qu...

Re: Should we go full time if the finances allow?
I personally think so. Not only does it give us the best chance of going up sooner rather than later, whenever that does happen we will be in a much better position to try and sustain ourselves at the next level. Obviously I'm not too clued up on how we're doing financially and financial stability i...

Re: Dartford v Chippenham Thu 12 May 2022 19:45
My opinion is that King should be the one that takes us forward. People need to remember we are going through some form of rebuild where we lost the core of the team that was so successful all within a couple of seasons (Hayes, Noble, Bradbrook etc etc and also lost Burman as manager), and that's no...

Re: Dartford v Chippenham Thu 12 May 2022 19:45
Seriously bad performance that. Tactics were all wrong. Time for King to go. Can always guarantee a failure in the playoffs with him in charge. Give it a rest, his first full season in charge. Yes it's disappointing but we don't want to be chopping and changing managers every season if we don't go ...

Re: Dartford v Chippenham Thu 12 May 2022 19:45
Well that was nothing less than a disaster. So many things to unpack tonight and not many positives unfortunately. I'll try and do it chronologically and sensibly without getting too emotional although I feel extremely let down tonight First half was very poor and that set the tone for the match. No...
