Re: Dartford v Farnborough Sat 19 Aug 2023

Dowse is a " big boy " and rather than listen to a couple of " Jonahs " feeding him negativity IF he were to read the Fans Forum he would see that the vast majority are fair people who do have opinions but are still 100% behind the him and the Darts !!!!

Re: Dartford v Hampton & Richmond Tue 15 Aug 2023

Far too early to be commenting on how we will do this season after 10 games will give us a good idea as ALL of the players should have settled in by then ? As for our strikers the facts are that we have 1 young quality qoalscorer , 1 guy who has been a very good striker but [ once again] is injured ...

Re: Weymouth v Dartford Sat 12 Aug 2023

Nothing much to add to the comments on the game but the bits I liked : # The two centre backs played well and looked solid with the new guy Golding fitting in well and got my MOTM # The young Keeper [McIntyre ] played well and controlled his box well , just made the one mistake and needs to improve ...

Good luck to young Ashton , hope he does great at Pheonix , however I'm going to Weymouth tomorrow and I really was hoping that Dowse's expected new [ major signing] he was talking about last friday would have been signed up and playing cause after last weeks defensive display we really need him , s...

Re: Dartford v Bath City Sat 5 Aug 2023

I dont have anything else to add to the comments about todays game , its the 1st one and Dowse will have learned a lot and with the new centre back coming in early next week , a seasoned pro and very well known to Dowse and his methods then I believe we will see a big tightening up at the back Couls...

Re: Dartford v Bath City Sat 5 Aug 2023

I'd go with :

Beeney
Block Nembhard Altintop Odaudo
Barzey Wynter M Rodney Coulson
Bradbury Manor

I understand Rooney is suspended ??

Re: Pre season friendly Billericay v Dartford Sat 29 July 2023

First game for me since the Charlton game due to holidays and was really looking forward to it but we were dire and Dowse.s post match comments are 100% accurate , players who came to us with great pedigree were poor and only Tommy Block and Brandon Barzey came out with any credit , disappointed NOT...

Re: Player news

Really terrific interview with Lewis Manor on Kent on line football today on exactly the sort of player we want to play for Dartford F C , I hope he has a good season as I am sure he will enjoy the journey

Well worth a read

Re: Player news

I think Sam Aduado is a great prospect but is still young and has to spend his time on concentrating fully on becoming a very good pro without the pressure of being Captain , which he has no experience at senior level Its either Tommy Block or Miller Rodney for me both experienced pros with a histor...

Re: News from around the National League South

I believe that The Manager [Mitch Brundle] is a decent guy and doesnt deserve all the crap he is getting at Dover as this is just the culmination of years of Dover who under Jim Parmenter who really used to believe they were the " Bees Knees " and treated visiting fans badly , many [ incl ...

Re: Pre season friendly Dartford v Charlton Sat 8 July 2023

Typical pre-season [friendly ?] game that I go to every year but never really enthralls me , and today game was no different , the 1st half 11 were better than the 2nd half 11 except I would have liked to have seen either Manor or Bradbury alongside Wall , Herschell but for one very good chance was ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Pleased for Keiron as he is a decent guy and still a class footballer and can easily play at Lewes level , he still had all the touches etc at the Darts but I think the physical/age side caught up with him !!

Wish him well at Lewes

Re: Player news

Tommy Block is my bet as Dowse says he is the best right back in the league , will play 40 + games , is aggressive and Dowse knows him from previous clubs , IF NOT then Rooney or Miller Rodney ????

Re: Dowse Interview 06/07/23 - Captain Conundrum?

If I was a betting man then I would bet on Tommy Block who fits Dowse's criteria of Player likely to play 40 games + a season , best right back in the league , past working relationship with him and a real leader but wouldnt dismiss Rooney or Miller Rodney ?????

Re: Player news

Rambo highlighted this guy a few weeks ago as " a man to get " and I looked up his web pedigree and it is impressive , IF he can develop with the Darts and have a great season then he really is [ potentially] one for a League career Great signing by Dowse and with this squad we should shak...
