Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sun 7 May 2023 @ 12.30

Skip My thoughts exactly I was dreading how we were going to defend as they took each corner half expecting them to score and they knew each time what one they were going to use and it resulted in a goal. On the other hand I don't know if we practise/rehearse our corners as they almost all seem to b...

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sun 7 May 2023 @ 12.30

A good team performance and we unfortunately paid for the missed chances in the end and then to lose on penalties We were the better team but made two mistakes which cost us the win on the day from a rehearsed corner and that first penalty miss but full marks to all of our players who had to take th...

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sun 7 May 2023 @ 12.30

Mark Sweet said We took the lead and then concede a very sloppy equaliser. How that ball has got to their man from that corner baffles me. Unfortunately the same way that we conceded other goals during the season as teams have practised their corners including playing a hard low cross along the goal...

Re: Meet the Manager - 27th March at 19.30

Steve Irving did stress that they had received a number of referee's comments about the fans behaviour one has to assume from behind the goal which could lead to possible fines if the troubles persisted

Re: Meet the Manager - 27th March at 19.30

When asked about promotion Dowse confirmed that he wants it and it would mean that we would have won something if it happens. Steve Irving then confirmed that the board were also fully behind going for promotion this season and recognised that we could not afford to go full time or pay the high wage...

So sorry to hear of Pedro's passing away such a shock and yet another of the old school of Darts followers going to meet some of his fellow fans and friends already on high joining them to watch down on the Darts.

Ajaxman DFC Writes There would have been several contenders for MOTM if it wasn't for one man standing slightly head and shoulders above the rest. Luke Coulson's composure infront of goal, leaving two opponents on their backsides including the keeper in the process, was pure class in scoring that al...

Re: Dartford v Oxford City Sat 25 Feb 2023

I really have to agree with almost all the comments with no attack ideas, lets just rely on the defence who worked hard and held out on the day. A crap referee which is something I don't normally comment on but from the start he gave very little in our favour. So with each team arriving at P.P. know...

Re: Dartford v Slough Town Tue 21 Feb 2023

As others have said a wins a win and results going our way for our two closest rivals but how they make the fans suffer for the 90 minutes + 4 :? We had lots of chances to get more goals but each time in and around the box we took one touch too many and allowed their defenders to block shots or we p...

Re: Dartford v Hemel Hempstead Town Sat 14 Jan 2023

Not a game to bother commenting on really with such a poor performance with us just giving the ball away when trying to complete the final passes or lumping it up field for no one to win.

Re: 50 years since winning the Southern League and reaching Wembley next season
