It’s a decent result and performance against the leagues best side. They will be worthy champions so fair play to them, they’ve blown some teams away and been consistent through the season.
This was a good marker for us, it confirms what I thought, were up there with the best and the great thing for us is we’re only going to get better.
How I wish we had King from the start with a pre season under his leadership.
Exciting times ahead I feel.

Posts saying Wealdstone were a good side?? To be honest, I didn't think a lot of them. Even given the penalty the player found it hard not to put it in the back of the stand, but no, he went for a bit of drama and hit the post.
Thought our performance was not a lot better. But there you go. McNulty put in a fair stint as did Terique and we didn't start to get around the back of them until Luke came on, when he started to cause them real problems.
Happy with a point but if the weather had been better felt we would have beaten them.
They probably will go up and good luck to them, so in saying that, I look forward to playing them in the league next season.
Back four were good apart from Ming at times flouncing about. Elliot not at his best.
My MOTM CBB's performance down the left just edging it for me.
There's a chap on the half-way line, stands behind me, very quiet talks with his mate. But the Crook incident and Luke being scythed down right in front us makes for good viewing. He runs to the barrier (and he's not a small chap) screaming and shouting. Proper wakes everyone up and is good entertainment. All though I must say,'heart attack material'.
UP the Darts.

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.

Is Billy Clifford a little fortuitous to not be facing a three game ban? I realise the foul was a long way out, but it looked like Wanadio was through?

Gentleman of the Jury, I bought Mr King a lemonade in the champions bar yesterday, and have to go on record for his thanks to the fans. He mentioned how much he wants to make the final for the fans efforts and sees it as a thank you to them. Tell as many as possible what we are witnessing. 330 at the Folkestone quarter final if we can make 500 for the semi it would be fantastic. Oh yes yesterday, for a nil nil, I still enjoyed the game and Dean Brennan was full of praise for our team. Tom and Josh were superb (once again RV your a part of this good team) it's just they have been excellent and consistent. Need a DFC fix every day now.

Love Kings comments on back of Dartford Messenger, totally spot on, we can’t keep on relying on Elliot and McQueen if we are play off candidates we need midfielders scoring and defenders at corners chipping in. I gave Elliot man of match as he tried so hard I felt sorry for him when things he tried didn’t work . Our front two work so hard , would love to see them playing off a big front man.

Good battling performance against the league leaders yesterday.
MOTM difficult one to call. So I'm nominating the goal post. Didn't have much to do, but when called into action stood firm, unflinchingly deflecting the penalty, earning us a valuable point.

Agree it was a gritty performance from both sides.

Just remembered an incident in the last 15 from I think a corner then second cross , Tariq Hyde flew in head first against the bodies of the keeper and centre half. I feared for his safety but he came out unscathed because he was so strong . Very brave indeed. Well done tariq putting body on the line there
