with all these folk coming to their first home game of the season, I'm going to go early to make sure I get in. COYDs

There's a good vibe about our club today and for the first time in a month or so, I'm feeling very optimistic.

Spike. You wish to talk fact. Ok fine. You say there is a good vibe about our club today. Is that a personal opinion or have you been busy today Interviewing people. I await your poll results. I am very happy personally
But i await your poll answers

Coming up to Kent for this game. My first match since I walked out 15 minutes before the end of the Hungerford away game in dismay.


If there's a feel good factor around the club, I really hope it's proved to be justified today.


Just been catching up on the news. So Ryno's coming home. The Messiah is back to save us. No wonder there's a sense of optimism. COYD

A stonking home win is written in the stars today. Who’d have thought, before the start of the season, that it could be: “Bonner, to Bradbrook, Bradbrook into Noble who turns his man and finds Hayes out wide. Hayes now on the right, cuts inside, that’s a wonderful cross onto the head of Sheringham and in a carbon copy of the last five goals, it’s Dartford six, Dulwich Hamlet nil!”

Ok, so maybe got a bit carried away at the end, but I’m excited and think that things are looking up.

With most clubs in our League not playing today because of cup ties we could get ourselves into a decent position in the League Table. I just hope our improvement continues and Dulwich Hamlet don't pee on our parade. I notice from their forum some of their hipster supporters won't be at the match because they are attending the anti-Brexit march in London. Politics before football sad, very sad.

Where there was despair, now is hope, where there was darkness, now there is light, Yes, this can only mean one thing, "The Magic Man" is back and after telling my son this morning he was filled with joy. I can't believe how one player can change the mood of the place and he has been the only player since Peter Taylor who has the ability to put bottoms on seats. Before today I thought we would be lucky to get 900 there today but now I expect around 1200. I already know a few who will be turning up today just because Ryan is back and even if he is on the bench you know that we have an option that very few teams have in their armoury.

I'm now filled with belief for the season and I can see us moving up the table, this will also take the workload off Ben and should give him more focus to operate on his favoured left side of the pitch. Absolutely buzzing now for 3pm COYD.

SPIKE HOW DARE YOU?
WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS AN OPEN FORUM FOR OPINIONS TO BE MADE?
DISGRACEFUL SPIKE.

[Kentc]

It’s not just Ryan’s abilities that’s got the mood up it’s the energy around and the feeling it’s created. I expect a little extra buzz now around the ground today and that can’t be a bad thing. Welcome home Ryno.
Not as big a fan as some on here but love him for being DFC through and through and his talents.

You don't need to interview people to find out their opinions Arthur, they are readily available on Twitter. You are probably not surprised to learn that I have not been conducting interviews or indeed carried out any comprehensive statistical analysis, but going by the stuff I've read, the mood is predominantly positive. But yes, my personal opinion is also that it's been a very good week. I was encouraged by how we played at Chippenham and delighted that we won, I was pleased to see Ronnie Vint back in the side, I'm happy that we've SIGNED a new defender rather than more loan players, I'm very pleased to see Ryno back and I really liked Tom Bonner's positive comments.

I would much rather be positive than negative but in my case I need something to be positive about. In my opinion, in the last week we've made some significant progress in the right direction.
