Re: Hemel Hempstead Town FC v Dartford Sat 28 Oct 2023

Well, I am a season ticket holder and have been for about 15 years . I am NOT enjoying what I am seeing in the 4/5 games I have endured this campaign. On several occasions I have not bothered to go to a home game because we are DIRE! ( even when we win) I have nothing against Dowse but his team are ...

Re: Hemel Hempstead Town FC v Dartford Sat 28 Oct 2023

Good luck to the team today.
There is a long way go but so far we look pretty average to me.
Speaking to several regulars last week before and during the game there does seem to be an acceptance that we are a mid table team..
Things can change but at this moment in time I tend to agree with them.

Re: Hampton & Richmond v Dartford Sat 14 Oct 2023

Disappointing especially after fighting back twice.
Sounds like a good game but unfortunately we got Nuffink!.out of it.

Re: Chippenham Town v Dartford Sat 7 Oct 2023

After an indifferent start to the season we seem to be improving and hopefully the play offs are back on the agenda. As for the Tom Bonner business. who knows what has gone on. We might find out what took place one day but he is now an H&W player and it is all a bit of a mystery at the moment. I...

Re: FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Welling Sat 16 Sep 2023

I am a Season ticket holder but I have only been twice this season. What I haven't seen in those two games is the Darts playing football. I intend to go on Saturday but I am not expecting a lot. The fans will vote with their feet if things don't improve. It is far to soon to be talking about relegat...

Re: FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Welling Sat 16 Sep 2023

I will NOT have a go at the board. As has already been said ....there wouldn't be a DFC without them. But I do believe that we were spoilt when Tony Burman was our manager. He is DFC through and through. and was totally commited to the club. I don't know what the budget is but to me it does seem lik...

Re: Alan Dowson

Well, did I make a correct decision on Saturday The unfortunate things is I didn't go because of the one thing that no football fan or club really wants..,APATHY.

Re: FA Cup 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Welling Sat 16 Sep 2023

Apathy, that is what I have heard from at least 4 supporters that I know. They are not annoyed , they are .not wanting the manager out they are simply passed caring This is not good and unless we give these people some exciting football then they will.be be gone . I have to be honest I have only see...

It is not only because we are losing but the football is dire. I have nothing against Dowse but at the moment we are only going one way and it ain't. Upwards. I am not enjoying what we are dishing up and this campaign is stuttering along and has no direction Our board will be aware of the situation ...

Re: Dartford v Slough Town Tue 5 Sep 2023

I have only been twice this season, I never thought that I would be missing so many home games but from what I have seen so far ..we are bloody AWFUL. No cohesion, no effort, no plan and no chance. After 66 years of following the Darts I will.sadly not bother to watch such a bunch of players who don...

Re: Dartford v Farnborough Sat 19 Aug 2023

My 1st game this season due to holidays. Not impressed and even if we had won I would have said the same. Dowse is a proven manager but if his budget means that we have an average squad for this league then what can he do? A dull boring game between 2 ordinary teams at this level...instantly forgett...

Re: Player news

To get promotion we obviously need to win the league , the play offs are a good idea but they are a bit of a lottery. The Darts record on play off success is pretty poor ,in fact to my knowledge we have won them only once in 2012 under Burman I think. It is easier said than done but we have to go fo...

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sun 7 May 2023 @ 12.30

I will wait a day or two before posting.
Far to disappointed to give an opinion on the game
The play offs are here to stay because of the money involved.
But just like England , we don't seem to be able to cope with the pressure of a shoot out.

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sat 22 Apr 2023

Well at H/T I spoke to a couple of StAlbans fans and asked them ... how on earth were they not in front, they agreed but were very wary that the "Real" Dartford might turn up in the 2nd half. Full credit to Dowse and the lads because we found our mojo in the 2nd half . Let's just hope that...

Re: Dartford v Taunton Town - Thu 13 April 2023

I also missed the game. But I have to be honest. We have not been impressive for quite a while Yes the odd performance and some spells of play in games But since the Ebbsfleet games we have not looked like a promotion candidate. I am aware that if we did go up we would need to strengthen but I hones...

Re: Eastbourne Borough v Dartford Fri 7 Apr 2023

Obviously hoping for a win against Dover but I agree that if we do somehow go up ....boy this squad will need a complete overhaul
Predicting Darts results is becoming a job and a half
I like Doswell but our form is all.over the place for a team in 2nd place.
