The Dart(s) Board

Apparently Nobes and a few of the old core boys will be at the game Saturday. Nobes been injured all season and was desperate to play in this match when we spoke at the end of last season. Shame, I’m sure he would have received a fantastic ovation.

I personally really dislike the new play off system they've pushed into the national leagues and now seemingly we are going to adopt. It just rewards being mediocre and giving a team who finished in 7th PLACE a chance for promotion. Thats not right. Its all about the leagues getting more income ...

Perhaps it’s not all bad news. From next season, in steps 3 and 4, play off places will be extended to 7th position. No more worrying about grabbing that 5th spot. That should please the board …

Not sure the forum has been this quiet on the day of a match. Is the game on?

In the case of John Biddle’s sacking, our opposition that night was Weymouth and their supporters quite enjoyed the mass chanting of ‘Biddle out’…Happy days.

I remember it well standing behind the goal and at the end of the match rushing to get behind the main stand and ...

I remember him. It was the time when we went all American I think. The American style posts behind the football goals and shirts with two vertical stripes (like braces). Kicking cheap plastic footballs into the crowd for the kids to keep. Success on the pitch - not much!


You’re getting him ...

Lee Noble is still recovering from a knee injury and hasn’t appeared for Brentwood this season. However, he advises me that he will be at the ground on Saturday. I’m sure he’s looking forward to reminiscing with all the Darts supporters about that promotion final winning goal again…

To pick up a point from a previous post, I have no idea if Henly is good captain material or not. However, what I observe is that opponents' captains spend the entire match in the ear of the ref, constantly complaining and making observations and their opinions known. I am sure that this has an ...

Really sad news. Last time I had a really good chat with Duke was in the bar at Dulwich about 4-5 years ago when we covered all sorts of football related matter! Having read Duke’s post (copied on here by Trev) that he was in ill health it made me think of my own mortality. So many Darts supporters ...

I’ll be interested in Rambo’s scouting report on his latest performance but suggest Dartford have a look before someone else takes a punt. He’s definitely up to step 3 level football.

He was Amrit Bansal- McNulty. Looked him up and whilst I don’t remember him he ws on loan to Dartford four years ago for a handful of games and scoring one goal
He was absolutely brilliant and a real bundle of energy scoring both Abbey goals in a 2-1 win , the winning goal coming when they ...

Yes Ring of Fire your description nippy skilful little one is perfect. I see when we had him in 2020 he was 19 or 20 now at 25 you can add strength to that description


Amrit scored in the 5-1 win over Chippenham (skip to 5:34):

Thanks for an even better explanation about this :lol:
When are you next down to visit us and join in our suffering ? :x


Probably the rearranged home Burgess Hill match if it falls on a free night. I would say I’ll see you in the bar, Trev, but I think all the season ticket holders now ...

Peter Taylor would be a massive NO from me.


Have to agree. Taylor’s record at his last half dozen plus clubs has been pretty abysmal. Time to move on from management and stick to scouting or such like. I was really surprised that Canvey appointed him. Looks like they are going to reap what they ...

Was gonna post my comments about Tuesday night but I think everyone covered what I was thinking or wanted to say....maybe if we sing 'Peter Taylors black and white army ' enough on Saturday afternoon we might get Peter Taylor back !


I believe he was one of the applicants before Ady got the ...

They were never free Trev. I think they were originally 50p but most issues were £1.

Spike thanks for that, it was a long while ago and at 77 memories not so good, but around a 10 bob note eh

Tony H asked
Where can I see “Light at the End of the Tunnel” please?
Tony it was a good many years ago when we were at the Watling Street ground and you could find Spike and Gary the contributors standing outside the turnstile in Watling Street handing out the magazine for free.


And we sold ...

Any recommendations for apps that cover the Isthmian League, please?

I've used Livescore in the past, but this season it seems to have gone down the pan, in terms of accuracy and volumes of irritating ads!


Dave,

Football Webpages. There is an app which is more flexible as you can select your ...

Fantastic come back to get a draw, well done Darts and especially Eddie.

What sort of crowd did they have down there, hopefully quite a few Darts fans.

Thanks for the updates as normal Parky.

We had a crazy result at Ramsgate back in the Kent league days I think we won 5 -4 with a late ...
