Re: Ady's Boys

Excellent production Spike. Thanks for that! Love it!!
I think I have a copy of one of the Tunnels in my collection, which I think I actually bought off Ebay at the time, some years after it was produced.

Re: Ady Departs

I'm not as pessimistic as some. have just Steve Irving's comments. The board do seem to be aware of issues.
I will be renewing my season ticket.
The fact we didn't get to at least the play offs I do put down to Adey and his tactics, because team selections, even according to radio commentaries ...

Re: Ady Departs

If Samir is becoming a barber, then that would surely allow him flexibility in splitting his hours between his job and his attention to DFC duties. Could even do some haircuts on the team bus to away games. Oops, silly suggestion, too many potholes on our roads nowadays!

Re: Ady Departs

Would there be any merit in considering Samir Carruthers. Now just turned 33. He knows the Dartford setup. He knows the current players and which he would like to keep. Has a footballing brain. Fans seem to have liked him and we seemed to miss him when he wasn't playing. If fit, he could be a player ...

Re: Dartford v Cray Valley Paper Mills Sat 25 Apr 2026

Sadly and disappointingly, I will not now be travelling down for this game as intended, as an accidental injury to my foot will prevent me from being there. Still in a lot of pain. Ah well!! Always next season!!

Re: Isthmian Premier League News

Sad news indeed. I can recall VCD matches being reported in the old Kentish Times weekly local publication back in the 1960s, along with Brentstonians.

Can also recall VCD getting to the 5th round of the FA Vase in 2005/6 season, when they were drawn away to Cammell Laird (who were one of the ...

Sorry Skip. Only just seen your message in response to my comment. I'm very very surprised your original post didn't attract more views or comments, to be honest.

Re: Dartford v Cray Valley Paper Mills Sat 25 Apr 2026

Rail tickets and seat reservations made for my trip down from Merseyside for this game. Booked early as Everton fans will be also be coming down to Chelsea in big numbers for that game, so let's hope we can get those 3 points we need to stay in contention for the play offs.

Really hoping we go into ...

Re: Dartford FC feature in Football Focus magazine

Thanks for that link Skip. Long time no see. The article just goes to show how much goes on behind the scenes. It is also why I continue to buy my season ticket each year since the Darts returned to Dartford at Princes Park, even though I may only get down from Merseyside once or twice a season. I ...

Re: Dartford v Brentwood Town Sat 31 Jan 2026

To be fair, whatever the performance, goals win matches, and that is what we've done. And what an important win with the teams behind us all winning too. Brings us to within 2 points of Brentwood.

Didn't get to hear the commentary as other events took precedence. Thanks for the goals though Kev ...

Re: Dartford v Aveley Sat 17 Jan 2026

I seemed unable to tune into the commentary yesterday, missed the action until it appeared on the Football Web site. Even then, there seemed to be delays in updating the score and it showed 9 minutes of stoppage time at the end of the 2nd half. Pleased to read of our improved performance, especially ...

Hadn't been aware that Chatham were a full time teams, although I knew their Sid Nelson from his days at Tranmere, where I thought he was an excellent player and even now only 29 years of age.

Seems an excellent start, with that early 2 goal start, although from the commentary, at times we were ...

Re: Chatham Town v Dartford Sat 27 Dec 2025

I see that Chatham beat Bromley in the Kent Senior Cup yesterday. Maybe not a full strength side fielded by Bromley, perhaps.

Anyway, to all supporters , team, management and those behind the scenes, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all. COYD
