The Dart(s) Board

Looked horrendous on Max, lucky to come out of that one with both legs. Pearson looked a very direct player, shame he only has a left foot. Other than that a good advert for Anderson coaches, at least they got there.

Sorry Dowse, but even 'swinging a punch that doesn't connect' is a sending off offence.
What would he have said if he had connected? "It is only a friendly"
The Charlton lads looked peeved.

Don't know, I can't remember.

Although one of the ladies in Malvern said I had the gift of the gab. We ended up at a local restaurant and we both rolled in at 8.20pm. What a night that was. Both in bed by 9.

Yes John, it has it's benefits. I've been all over the country visiting different lodges. Last one was going to the Hay book festival in Wales. Lovely area's of Malvern and Hereford. I didn't get to call the numbers but I won £3.50 for a line???

Lewis is a big guy ain't he? Mitch Beeney made some good saves first half and the ball stuck on occasions when he could have easily spilled it.

It's going to be a hot one. Walking pace. Prepare to take in lot's of fluids. I presume the bar will be open.

I noticed that the Lads of the Village pub is in disarray, (which pub isn't nowadays?) I then thought, I wondered what happened with Sean the landlord? and saw that the guy is still there. In his eighties. Sean was a supporter of the Dart's on occasion and many Dart's supporters supped there before ...

Great stuff, new blood and Dowse's signings are giving me a bit more confidence about the season ahead. Even with these full time teams dropping down to join us, who cares what money they've got. Dowse is getting players in who hopefully want to play for Dartford and not what's going in their pocket...

At the moment the goalkeeping situation isn't a problem and young Whitfield is definitely one for the future. To me the squad is looking a tad flakey on all fronts. We have retained only 2/3 players worth their salt from last season and signed two players from Havant, a team that fell apart towards ...

So, let me get this straight. Quite a few people had an inkling that Bonner was going, particularly Dowse. Before the end of last season!!. Essam quit a while ago, so alarm bells should have been ringing back then. On the 22nd of THIS month Tom makes it official. Two central defenders gone the last ...

Morning Llamaman, I hope I find you well and enjoying the Summer. Albion Rovers have dropped out of the SFL and have been replaced by The Spartans. Bonnyrigg Rose survived their first season and I'm looking forward to a better season ahead from them. But what of The Spartans? Any info on them? If yo...

Isn't Block a centre back? Obviously Dowse rates him highly, maybe he's still hanging on hoping that Bonner will sign. If not then he may have fingers in the pie regarding another. Can't believe that he's happy with the situation at the moment and hopefully a signing will be made soon.

Agree Steve,Terry was quality and would just run at defence's with power. But somehow at BS I found myself directly behind Terry's run from the halfway line almost. We backed off of him when he decided to hit it. The ball moved left and right before ending up in the net.. Anyway, we can dream about ...

Blimey Spike, didn't see that coming. Terry Sullivan was a superb player and in all the years supporting Dartford, probably the best ever I've seen. Trouble is I will always remember his goal against us for Bishop Stortford in the Trophy. Blinding goal.

And a small guy playing off Harvey who also knows where the goal is. Someone in the Cass/Henderson calibre. Or even another Terry Sullivan.
Don't think we'll get anyone like that from EB.

Coming on nicely Jay

Why don't we call all the players Dave to save confusing you two?

And your opinion is respected Lenny, just don't use predictive text. Princess?? That's the keeper sorted, welcome Mitch. Why was Ben hesitant? Dowse is on the ball and is certainly getting his side. Now it's up to us to support them. I agree with Lenny that it will be a lot tougher next season but t...

Hope Dan's goalkeeping decision isn't a big foot shooting for us as regards Ben re-signing again. Let's hope he does, but if he doesn't then one would hope that Dowse has someone in mind. Throwing young Wray in at the deep end may make the lad or finish him :o . I'm sure he's one for the future. Cou...
