Re: Farnborough v Dartford Sat 3 Feb 2024

Thank you for that confirmation Rick. I will be tuning in to listen to Will Bass's commentary.

There is no doubt that Tony has his work cut out in taking on his temporary management role. Just pleased that everybody is rallying around him and supporting him and the team.

Re: Dartford v Weymouth Sat 27 Jan 2024

What was noticeable from the highlights was no coverage of the foul on Wall by keeper Benfield, so can't pass any comment on that!! Also, especially in the first half, was the switch to keeping the ball on the deck, one of the first things that TB is implementing. Now why didn't Dowson think of that...

Re: Dartford v Weymouth Sat 27 Jan 2024

Just listening to the commentary yesterday, and it is clear Dowson has left our Club in a mess. Thank you to Tony for taking the challenge on, and it is a difficult position too!! It's a pity that there has been a couple of postponed games too, as although it might have given Tony more time to look ...

Re: Dartford v Weymouth Sat 27 Jan 2024

COYD. That's usually how I end my posts!! This time, I'm just amazed at the turnaround of events, and the change from all the recent negativity (deservedly) to the positivity since the release of Dowson. It will be interesting to see the size of the crowd today, as so many are looking forward to TB ...

Re: Player news

That signing makes sense and seems an excellent solution with Harvey going to Farnborough and Taylor coming in the opposite direction. Less travelling for both players. Taylor is 24, born in Gravesend, Charlton in his youth, and experience in the National South. Welcome to the Darts. Whoever said To...

Re: Truro City v Dartford Tue 16 Jan 2024

Was just tuning into the nationalleaguetv website prior to kick off to discover the game wasn't now showing on the schedule. Tune back into our forum and game is off!! Not a satisfactory whatsoever. Really feel for those who have travelled to the game, including the team, having travelled that far t...

Re: News from around the National League South

Congratulations Brian. That might just cover a visit down to Princes Park to see a rejuvenated Darts performance.
Hope you are settling in well in your new abode.

Re: Alan Dowson sacked

The Board have been 100% correct to have taken the action they have. Taking such action is never an easy decision, and the excellent Club statement sums up the situation so very well. But really, Dowson has been the architect of his own downfall, for any number of reasons. I have been able to watch ...

Re: Weston-super-Mare v Dartford Sat 6 Jan 2024

There seems to be a lot of bugs around the country at the present time, so important you look after no 1, Steve. Hope you are feeling better soon and up for the visit to Maidstone on Tuesday. At least that is just down the road compared to W-S-M. Whilst there are quite a number of National League ga...

Re: Dartford v Welling Utd Sat 30 Dec 2023

At the top of this match posting, Rick has a Stephen Bennett listed as the Referee Observer. Would that have been the same retired ex Premier referee, does anybody know? Might that explain the woeful performance of the referee? I totally lost track of the number of bookings of the Darts players as h...

Just looked and seen that our game this afternoon is to be streamed live, so I will be watching the game from afar.

Re: Welling Utd v Dartford Tue 26 Dec 2023 @ 1pm

Am I missing something on the commentary, as the Welling link is saying their Mixir is not on air. Is there an alternative link anybody is aware of for the match commentary?

Ajaxman. Where did that post come from? That took me totally by surprise and came totally out of the blue!!

Re: Tonbridge Angels v Dartford Sat 16 Dec 2023

Well, certainly not the result we wanted into the build up to the Christmas fixtures and New Year fixtures. Hadn't realised until later this evening the Coulson was not in the side today, so his loss of energy would have been a big miss today. Just so sad to be reading all the comments, and when you...

Re: Dartford v Torquay Utd Sat 25 Nov 2023

From the commentary, it does seem that Torquay have had their fair share of chances too, so the Darts will still need to be on their guard in the second half.
