Re: Player news

Shame about Dan Wilks as Dowse didnt need much of an excuse to drop him so Dan has done the right thing and gone to play for a Manager who rates him also Craig Ross would provide some very healthy competition to Ben Dudinski IF he did get an 18 month deal !!!! ALSO another of Dowse's faves has NOT y...

Re: Player news

Thats great news as he certainly did stand out especially after Christmas , with Carruthers gone it will give him the [ sole] license as main playmaker as I often though that our midfield didnt function effectively when both played , with ball winners Rooney and Winter to win him the ball we should ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Connors was a family decision as he lives in south kent and recent addition to family and a pressure job means he wanted to play local and not do the 100s of extra miles in the NLS , he always gave 100% for the Darts and I am sure ALL Darts fans wish him well !!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Player news

Agreed but it will be a real shock IF Tom Bonner doesnt sign again , it appears he has been away on holiday but wont rest easy until he puts pen to paper , the other fella [ Adebowale ] seems to have the pedigree and he looked a big uncompromising guy when on the bench at Tonbridge , I didnt see him...

Re: Player news

Dowse has got 10 signed up so far ALL of whom are quality and will have a great chance of being 1st pick , I hope that we dont fill the [ est] 8 remaining places with too many of last seasons non achievers and leave room for more probable 1st picks to be signed . Of the list , Bonner , Dudinski and ...

Re: Player news

At his age of course he has gone for the money plus with his dip in form[ and injury prone] IF Dowse recruits well this summer he could have well have been a bit part player and for any comparison to be on the same level as Eliot Bradbrook , surely must be a wind up ????????????

Tony Burman interview in 2019

For those of us who dont work any more treat yourself to the KM Football Podcast No19 dated 5th February 2019 when Mathew Panting interviewed Tony Burman , its an hour long and just conforms what a great guy Tony is and what Dartford F C stands for and why a well respected Dowse has it all to do at ...

Re: Player news

Carruthers is a " journeyman pro " and most of his career he never stayed anywhere more than a year and his appearances over the last 3 have been 10, 26 and 41 , this season he was exceptional in the 11 game unbeaten run October time but in 2023 has NOT consistently hit the same standards ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Napa will probably do o k there but IF the Darts are serious about improving on last season then no place for him at The Darts , just retain the quality players and recruit some equivalent class and go for it this coming season !!!!

Re: Player news

I agree with Rambo's comments on Charlie Sheringham and can see him in an impact striker role as he still has the class but maybe not for 46 games , as for Lewis he is 31 and played all his time at a lower level than NLS but he says its a dream move to a bigger Club and he will be hungry to do well ...

Re: News from around the National League South

The simple answer is to play21 teams in the north and 23 in the south as chances are it will balance out in 12 months time , I feel for B Stortford as the proposed move is n o reward for getting promoted and the financial cost could cripple them which is totally unfair !!!!

Re: News from around the National League South

Bet they are thrilled to bits about this , reward{??} for winning the Ryman Premier , trips to the likes of Southport , Hereford, Darlington , Spennymoor Town etc , hope their Chairman has deep pockets to cover travel costs alone and doubtful that players will be in a queue to sign for next season ?...

Re: KentOnLine Interview with Dowse.

Whether he realises it or not Dowse has driven a wedge between him and Darts fans , many who have supported the Club [ through good and bad times] for 50 years plus and his comments are hurtful ,disrespectful and smacks of " Billy Big B......ks " , he has received great support from these ...
