Re: Tom Bonner

At present I guess most Dart fans are shocked atTom signing for Havant when I believe he said he wouldnt play for another Club ??? , Perhaps I have got it wrong and await further info before I say anything ?????????

Re: Chippenham Town v Dartford Sat 7 Oct 2023

We should pay up contracts and wish them all the best elsewhere , the board should give Dowse some budget[ if necessary] to bring in a couple of injury free strikers , I know [ in retrospect that Dowse cocked up signing these again ] but time to look forward !!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Dartford v Tonbridge Angels Sat 23 Sep 2023

I didnt go yesterday so do NOT have any views on the match but the one thing that stuck out was that we had no strikers on the bench , Alex Wall still injured and has not/hardly figured this season and Charlie Sheringham once again absent [ reason ??] and that is just not acceptable at our level Dow...

Re: Statement from the board - 19 September 2023

I think the Board are right to back Dowse at this early stage of the season but IF the results do not improve then I believe they will have no option but to replace him Most regular Fans have commented on Dowse's negative interviews and chucking his players under the bus and it just could be that he...

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

A couple of days ago I posted that I was pretty fed up with the current displays and wouldnt bother with the Welling match but probably make the effort for the Tonbridge game , with feedback from my guys at the game and the forum comments then unless anything changes dramatically then I wont bother ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Not around at that time but heard TrevB tell many stories about what a real hard nut Alf Ackerman was , maybe the strategy was that " Alf softened em up " and Bob Taylor laid in wait and scored the goals ?????

Sounds like [real ] football great times !!!!!!!!!

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

As quite a long term fan I used to be almost on my " last legs " to miss a game and along with others pulled many strokes to get to games versus family do's etc , the difference is this season [and even latter part of last season] is that the "football " served up by Dowse's team...

Re: News from around the National League South

I didnt like Steve King but he did produce 1st teams that were worth the entrance fee and anyone who thinks he wont do well at Havant with their money is nuts

I dont believe they will be near the bottom of the league table for long , hope we follow them !!!!!!

I hate the way we are playing Football [ Hoofball ] and whilst I want us to win I also want see see some really good football [which usually equates to winning ] , 2023 has served us the worst football I think I have ever seen by a Darts team and I really do make the effort to go to the Home games [...

Re: Taunton Town v Dartford Sat 2 Sep 2023

Taunton a very good side at home , 3 wins so far so makes sense to to 4 5 1 , keep it tight , get a goal and even a point away is acceptable !!!!

Tonbridge have signed [again] Jordon Greenidge , a striker who scored plenty of goals for them last season , seems like he was still attached to Hemel but NOT getting into their squad !!!!!

Re: Dartford v Dover Mon 28 Aug 2023

Just to clarify , I am a big fan of Ollie Box and he is definitely one for the not too distant future but I do not think he can be classed as proven back up striker for Bradbury /Manor and that would just put unwanted/unnecessary pressure on the lad Like Matt I didnt realise he was an out an out str...

Re: Dartford v Dover Mon 28 Aug 2023

Good comfortable win for the Darts against a poor Dover side but you can only beat whats put in front of you ,the No5s of the ball treatment to Harvey was cowardly and full marks to Harvey for having the class to not react , I just hope after the final whistle he told the useless tw'#t what he reall...
