[mickw]

This has made my day - like everyone else I was wondering if the last 3 wins were the real deal or a false dawn, well there's no doubt now - we are on our way.

Steve King's interview after the game

Everyone I listen to him speak I like him more.
Our future is bright.

Seems their manager and their club badge have something in common ...... They are both Cocks

Great videos Kev. Thanks again.

What a cracking 3 points. It’s hard to believe the turnaround in our fortunes in a matter of a couple of months. Steve King, his back room team and the squad that he inherited and has successfully added to is showing that we are a match for anyone in this league. And all this despite another injury, this time in the warm up, suffered by Wynts.

Elliot Romain and Darren McQueen have got to be the top strike duo in the NLS; goals they are a flowing and they look a danger all around the opposition’s box and they work their whatsits off in a defensive capacity, too. The midfield 4 we’re excellent particularly Luke’s direct running at their left back which caused him all sorts of problems; his best game for the Darts this season and a constant thorn in their side. Marsh-Brown did a terrific job covering for Wynts injury with Crooky and Jake creating openings on several occasions. Despite conceding 2 goals, the defensive quartet was impressive with both full backs getting forward and being an absolute pain in Dorking’s proverbial. Full marks to Sesay between the sticks who is showing terrific handling and looks a quality find.

Several of their players were in the referee’s ear the whole bloody game; having watched their manager’s after match whinge-fest you can see where they get it from. There wasn’t a Dartford supporter there today that didn’t enjoy their moaner in chief, Luke Moore, commit the foul that handed Macca the opportunity from the penalty spot to wrap up a deserved three points.

I loved every minute. It is once again a pleasure to watch Dartford play football, home and away, and long may it continue. Tell all your friends that Dartford FC is back and is worth watching. You’ll see slick, exciting and winning football. This is what Steve King has achieved in two months; I can’t wait to see what will be on offer next season!

A great day out, a gutsy performance from the entire team over those whining moaning shites. Very sweet when Macca tucked away the winning penalty considering the stick he took from their defenders. Well done all.

Where to start on this one .. Firstly we were superb again but after 4 games in 10 days there were a few tired legs out there which is to be expected . That made todays performance even better , we fought for everything against a really nasty Dorking team . They were pushing and grabbing shirts continuously and the Ref just let them do it. They must of been told to go after Elliott as they were trying to kick him off the park, their number 4 was the main culprit until he was fouled by his own player and carried off
If anyone thinks our floodlights are bad they are like the Blackpool illuminations compared to Dorking's. May as well stood in each corner with a zippo lighter , it would have been brighter !!!!

So what joy when we scored deep into injury time , so pleased to beat that horrible muggy team with shitty tatics . Bloody well enjoy the goals

Well done Kev on capturing these moments every week
I was asked to leave their club bar yesterday afternoon after the game. My offence was to complain in the 44th minute about their disgraceful tactics to their manager by the dugout. His response
"Its simple, it's my ground, and I will have you thrown out"
After the match whilst enjoying the victory with the DSP lads their number 2 or 3 came up to me with his young kids swearing calling me an idiot for complaining. He left but was followed up by his mate who said he would smash me up along with a DSP guy. Absolute scum. That Marc White is a total prick. Just spoilt, and when he cant get his way he reacts like a spoilt little kid. At least with Glen Tamplin he realises hes a knob. And once again he has all his hangers on and leeches around him. We totally outplayed them yesterday with football. That Moore is a scumbag, and as for the number 4 who went off I really hope it's a career threatening injury. Harsh I know but what a total disgrace of a football club. As many have said we totally deserved that result well done to everyone at the club. From top to bottom. To all the players in the WHOLE squad. This is top class.

When a couple of games into kingys reign fans spoke of play off positions and I have to be honest I did think what are people on
A few games later I began to think of play off positions then I thought we don’t want to win the play offs and go up because we will be unprepared and too early in kingys reign to deal with the national
Now looking at the way we play football and the quality of the players I desperately want to be in the play offs win and go up
I knew kingy would be a sensation and have every confidence the team will continue to evolve and if we were to win the play offs he will have the summer to put a squad together
We are seeing a miracle happen and I firmly believe I am now watching football at dartford as good if not better than the Taylor years and this is only a few games into kingys management.
I cannot wait to see what he produces next season
I have been very critical at times with the Board and have even asked them to step down as they took the club as far forward as the could especially after the debacle of the previous management appointment then keeping them on for the start of this season
However with the inspired appointment of Steve King they are fully vindicated and I congratulate and thank Steve Irving and co for giving us our Dartford FC back
I look forward to playing in the National pretty soon ( not necessarily next season) and seeing 2000 regularly at PP
