Re: Dartford v Havant & Waterlooville Tue 16 Aug 2022

I enjoyed the game and if fairness applied we would have got a point but life aint fair and with our awful defending [ Bonner and Essam must have 700+ senior games between them but dont know about Jason Prior !!!] . I enjoyed Dowse's honest post match interview and Im sure he will learn from it Two ...

First game forme this season and really looking forward to it as Havant are a tough , physical side with plenty of ex higher league player in their team.

Re: Dartford v Cheshunt Sat 13 Aug 2022

Good interview with Pierre whose comments epitimises the ethos that Dowse wants the Darts squad to have , attitude is a great thing and this squad has it !!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Dartford v Cheshunt Sat 13 Aug 2022

We seemed to have controlled and created many chances during the 90 mins ,just need to put a few more away to save any last minute flutters , team is already developing into a Dowse style team, very hard to play against and solid !!!!! Looking forward to tuesday which will be a tough , physical game...

Re: Dartford v Cheshunt Sat 13 Aug 2022

It was a shame about Dajon Golding as he was certainly one of the "starlets " in the Academy and in the very few 1st team games[ mainly Cup I think ?] he played he looked a great prospect , I think he got some bad advice and became impatent and went to pastures anew where he never really l...

Re: The new season

A decent squad with 18 signed , I reckon there is [ only] room for 2 more , a proven back up keeper and an out and out winger [ Danny Leonard style ] , we have cover everywhere else [ incl 5 strikers ] , looking forward to my 1st game [ Cheshunt] after solid performance at Bath !!!!!

Re: Pre season friendly - Chatham Town v Dartford Tue 26 July 2022 at 19.45

We were not very good 1st half with Chatham moving the ball well and playing some nice stuff , obviously not our strongest 11 , 2nd half with experienced subs coming on eg Carruthers , Winter, Sheringham etc we dominated but didnt convert the many chances we created , Sherinham victim of a bad tackl...

Re: Pre season friendly Dartford v Boreham Wood Sat 23 July 2022 at 3pm

As predicted/expected a tough game against a physical BWood side and the Darts stood up to it well , played some decent creative football with all of the team putting in a good shift , Charlie Sheringham showed his experience and enjoyed his [ physical] battle with their Ns 5 and 6 , the trialist 9 ...

Re: Pre season friendly Dartford v Boreham Wood Sat 23 July 2022 at 3pm

Just had a look at the Borehamwood site including 2 preseason interviews with their Manager Luke Gerrard who is a quality proven guy at NLP level , their squad is packed with good solid experienced guys who will be a tough nuts to crack. Tomorrow will as near as possible a proper game and the Darts ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Makes sense geographically for Kory as its only a quick trip down the M1 from his midlands home to Hemel Hempstead and he will not miss the M25 hike around to Dartford !!!!!!!

Re: Pre season friendly - Dartford v Barnet Tue 19 July 2022 at 19.45

No doubt part of a quality Management team , great to see the Academy lads given their chance and Odaudo and Herschall have really looked the part with Brody also putting a good shift in which can be a big bonus for us this season , one things for sure it would NOT have happened under Steve King !!!...

Re: Pre season friendly - Dartford v Barnet Tue 19 July 2022 at 19.45

Listened to the live commentary as I couldnt make it tonight , the name I kept hearing good things about was Marvin Herschall , I assume he is ex Academy , whats the thoughts of those who were there tonights ?????????

I should think Dowse would be pretty happy the way things went tonight !!!!

It will not be stupid hot [35ish] at 8pm so gives the lads a good chance of getting a sweat on , just allow water breaks say every 15/ 20 mins and all will be fine

Games get called of for Rain, Snow and Fog but for Sun ???? FFS !!!!!

JCJ , You could well be right as we were behind the goal almost 70 metres away from No28 that we thought was Kory Roberts , Kory was released by Bromley at end of season we assumed they were [ incorrectly] having another look at him

Re: Pre season friendly Bromley v Dartford Sat 16 Jul 2022

Good performance by the Darts today with 1st half could easily have been starting 11 , 2nd half lots of changes with only Statham and Wynter alongside either trialists/ Academy but either way we looked good all 90 mins Only disappointment of the day was that Alex Wall only lasted 15mins [ i2nd half ...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Hemel also signed Jordan Greenidge from Weymouth who was on loan to us last season , he is a big guy [ 6* 5"] and will keep Bonner/Essam busy , Hemel must like big guys cause also signed from St Albans Bailey Brown who is a midfielder and 6* 4 "
