I wouldn’t knock dartford’s performance- I’ve seen Stones play through so many teams this season but Darts worked so hard to close down the space and track the runners that it never happened yesterday. The fact that Billy Clifford , probably the most creative midfielder in the NLS this season was reduced to taking one for the team with that challenge on Wanadio proved how close the game was.
I think you’ll finish in the top five.

Excellent game for the neutral but as a Stones fan we were disappointed not to have won, having dominated the game (Brexit majority) and then missed that late penalty. And the reason our crowd was smallish (prob little more than 200) was the weather, and so quiet because we were drenched in the horizontal rain and sleet in the second half blowing into our end .... Darts fans certainly had the benefit of losing the toss!
It was a decent game though and I can see why Darts are a revived side. Our ex Josh Hill and Tom Bonner stopped us playing through the middle, getting endless toes and heads in the way of threaded passes and you were always a threat coming forward with Luke Wanadio and McQueen dangerous as ever.
I think both sides were happy with a point. Another dramatic Darts-Stones game at Princes Park despite the score line.

Bit disappointed that nobody has responded- I’m away on holiday from next week so would need any response in the next day or two. Still hoping!

Hi Darts fans! Tim here from the Stones programme- as in past years I’m keen to make our match day prog as inclusive as ever. If anyone, young or old( or in between) would like to share their views on the Darts hopes and aspirations for 2019-20, please drop me an email to tim.fparks@gmail.com and I’ll print your views. Thanks!
