Re: Player news

I am surprised that Shomotun has not signed yet which can only be that either Ade doesnt rate him or he is hoping for a better offer , based on his short time with us he showed some real promise [ left footed right winger] in the NLS but was NOT that standard and a cracking season with the Darts cou...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

The role of a " Fans Ambassador " is to take the democratic views of the Fans to the Board and NOT the F As own personal views , the Board [ minus1] have shown no inclination to consider the Fans views and most of them are there for the Jolly Boys Outing " !!!!!

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Dulwich are welcome to him , he says he is a " ball winning midfielder " NOT what I saw last season as he couldnt tackle a Rice Pudding !!!!! , Dulwich serial under achievers have got another one only interested in the pay packet !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Player news

I can understand the desire to give the fans some good news on signings as the odd "rumble " already started about no new faces , I also found the reference to " when Chelmsford Contracts expire ......." a bit strange but Ade's an experienced guy , he must believe the two Guys ar...

Re: Player news

Two very good signings and both can do a really good job for us especially at our new level , can see why Ade signed them and more of the same ethos will suit me

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Hi Spike

Only a suggestion based on several visits to Chatham when I could 'nt[ for health reasons ] go to most of the Darts away games last season , I dont have the answers but they must be doing something right !!!!!!!!!!!

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Hi PL , I have no clout {and at 78 dont want any !!] to get involved in front line discussions with the Board although I think you would be a "Great Fans Ambassador " and have the full backing of real Darts fans Will this happen mmmmmmm ??? , so best idea is that he men with the clout [the...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Bit defensive Parklife to a bit of positive thinking ??/ , maybe the money man has upped the playing budget which helps but IF you had been you would see a real Community spirit with loads of add ons with new ideas which has got the crowds in and seen just what can happen with people wanting to prog...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Suggest the Board book an appointment and visit the owner of Chatham F C as he must be doing something right as I have just spotted on the internet the following increase in crowd numbers , increases that we would die for , how does he do it ????????????? 20 years ago average of 174 10 years ago &qu...

Lars , You are entitled to you opinion just that I dont agree with it, no further comments from me on Wynter as I am now only interested in the future players coming to the Darts !!!

Re: Player news

Ronnie Nelson did great for us and as a loanee played 100% for us and was a real credit as well as being a very good player , I hope he gets a deal at a NLP Club and develops into a English League Football regular

He would be crazy to come to the Darts !!!!!!!!!

Re: Player news

Wynter [ like others] want disinterested enough to turn up to pick up his pay packet , he [ on paper] was a senior player and bottled it as for loyalty dont be respectful to players like Bradbrook, Hayes, Noble and many others !!!!!!!!! Forget the shower from last season and hope Ade recruits well f...

Re: Player news

Thats good news as he went missing in midfield last season when you would have expected a so called senior player to step up and become a leader when things got tough , he didnt and could really be bothered and couldnt tackle a rice pudding , One Forum MOTM and only 30 votes ALL season , BI Bi Jorda...

Re: Player news

No real surprise as Brandon [ when fully fit] is too good for Isthmian Premier and at least Ade can concentrate on getting available players in and NOT chasing the remaining players who under achieved last season but will probably think they are still NLS standard - new clubs in for a shock !!!!!!!!...

Dartford Academy v West Ham Q Final of Cup

Watched game with Gilesy today ,Darts won 4-1 , quite comfortably after going 1 0 down after circa 15mins , I only knew 3 of the players , Box , Whitefield and Boulton and they did play well but so did a 2/3 others although no-one looked out of place , I expected that West Ham being a Premier League...

Re: Isthmian Premier League News

Burnsie was a genuinely decent fella and a great bloke to have in your team [ he wouldnt have put up with last seasons slackers ] , he really was a defender/midfielder but did have that one crazy season as a striker when I think he got 20 goals but next season couldnt hit a barn door except for a cr...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Whilst the Board are now looking for new initiaves and how other successful Clubs [ eg Chatham] are doing then worth a look at Wellings latest way forward with a " Supporters Ambassador " who acts as a comunication /PR link from the Board to the Fans , something thats NOT ever happened at ...
