Man Hunt. Britain's most wanted. If you know this man please do not approach. He is dangerous and could also be armed.

Nice to see Alan Julian's tweet:-

Shame to concede the equaliser with virtually the last kick of the game but that’s football . Enjoyed seeing lots of friendly @dartfordfc faces yesterday , still a brilliant club and I wish them all the very best.


Entertaining game with a rousing finish that we thoroughly deserved. A looping cross with a defender's head diverting the ball out of Alan's reach to give Jamie his chance for a wonderfully timed first goal - soon after blasting an awkward volley over the bar. Not the only guilty of this in the last quarter of the match. Great celebrations at the end. Others have summed it all up very well. Some good passing movements with everyone playing well and strongly, particularly Amandou and Delano creating openings up front with Lee, Chez and Ben linking well from midfield. All quite encouraging.

Tommy, surely as Tom is Captain it's a matter of 'Don't do as I do, do as I say'. ;) Having read some comments and match reports, it sounds as if there is a slight improvement. Worrying that Spike had Jamie down as getting the 'winner'. Thought I may have missed something.
Wish we had Julian at PP as along with Marcus, probably two of the best keepers we've had at the ground. No offence Deren.
Let's hope for a cup win, the team will be damned if there is anything else. And carry it on to my next game WSM.
Up the Dart's. :D

It felt like a winner at the time Ozy.
Good performance yesterday, we were always in the game. Shame we couldn't find the target with several shots going high or wide after good build up play, particularly second half.
Thoroughly deserved the draw, again some strange decisions from the Ref but great to get that deserved equaliser in the dying seconds!!

According to the Non-League paper it was Ronnie Vint who gave away the second penalty and not Tom Bonner, sorry Tom !

Ha ha, thanks for pointing that out. I've corrected it now so you have no proof. LOL.

Sub-consciously it must have felt like the winner.

Not much to choose between the two teams, we had as many chances as them and unlike some earlier games in the season we didn’t throw the towel after conceding, in fact we finished the stronger and were worth at least a draw.
Chez Isaac filled in ok again at right back, Nobes was everywhere (as usual), the defence stood firm against a £500m forward line, Jamie Philpott looked much more of a goal threat in the few minutes he was on and BA and Knowles caused them problems.
Still giving away to many free kicks so need to work on that but overall there are signs things are improving and with Charlie’s return from suspension there is more to be optimistic about.
The ref had a very poor game.

As for Zippo’s Circus FC:-

I thought we were bad at £1.70 for a bottle of fizzy but £1.80 for a can of diet coke is outrageous.

Credit to Ricky Modeste who has just smashed Neymars World Cup record of spending 14 minutes on the ground and he managed to do it in only 45 second half minutes.

Their player behaving like a spoilt brat after the final whistle did little to enhance “Zippos Circus FC’s” reputation.

However special mention to Alan Julian who was great all game, a class act.

Alan Julian is a gent, I agree that he is one of our great keepers from the past.
Class act and a decent bloke.

It wasn't Pennant Parky, looking at their players profiles i think it was Tambeson Eyong? !!
