Re: RIP Dave Skinner

Llamaman says Such sad news, without him (& others of course, especially his Co Chairman Steve Irving) would there be a DFC today? It is my understanding Dave put his home as security to secure the funds to keep The Darts going before things settled with the new ground. Only part of what he did ...

Re: RIP Dave Skinner

So sorry to hear this news as having watched along side him on the terraces then his move to help resurrect and re-create the team after the Watling Street loss shows to me he was MR. DFC and will be missed by the many fans and fellow board members

Re: Torquay Utd v Dartford Sat 9 Mar 2024

Tony H says Biased opinions in favour of the Board - nonesense! I’m not going to comment on the game as I wasnt there, nor did I have the usual excellent commentary to guide my opinions ( but from those that were there, we were very good first half, and awful second!) Back to my point - DFC has to b...

Re: Dartford v Aveley - Tue 27 Feb 2024

Skip wrote On another note it was really good to meet up with many old mates and acquaintances during the evening. Shame it didn’t coincide with Pete Samson’s visit. I’m not sure my appearance contributed to the downward spiral in the club’s season although a couple of posters obviously have a diffe...

Re: Dartford v Aveley - Tue 27 Feb 2024

Skip says I’ve persuaded myself to venture down to PP for this relegation / play off battle. At the beginning of the season most observers would have expected the positions of the respective clubs, at this stage of the season, to be reversed. How wrong were they! I’m reliably informed that performan...

Re: New Manager.

Spike said I think some people are under-selling our club. When I last asked the question, I was reliably informed there were "around 40-50 applicants" for the job and several very experienced and respected names amongst them. (I know some of them because they've been spotted arriving at t...

Re: Dartford v Taunton Town Sat 24 Feb 2024

A point sums it up we only had one shot on goal from Wall which tested the keeper otherwise no shots on goal and no near misses and a pretty poor performance other than our goal. The referee very poor with numerous booking and he missed the possible penalty for us and straight from this they break a...

Re: Dartford v Weymouth Sat 27 Jan 2024

TFW wrote I think that had Alex Wall been in control of the ball and he was denied a goal scoring opportunity it may have been a different outcome but I don't think that was the case. Alex struggles to control himself with all of the bookings and off the ball actions never mind controlling the ball :(

Re: Harvey Bradbury

What a difference with this explanation from Tony with all the relevant information that we need no excuses and the changes appear to be just what most of us wanted.
Of course it also helps to understand in plain English what he is intending to say instead of Geordie lingo rubbish ;)

Re: Alan Dowson sacked

I will always stand behind this current board and appreciate how difficult the decision has been but I must thank them for taking this action and I am sure all of the many long term and current supporters will look forward to seeing Tony in action again until a new manager is appointed.

Re: Player news

I absolutely confirm that Rick is doing a very good job and should be left to operate as he thinks posts should be moved around either when not in the right area of the website or once the posts are finished after the 3 days. At 75 and having seen too many poor seasons like this one and not being ve...

Re: Kent Senior Cup 2nd Round - Dartford v Bromley Tue 28 Nov 2023

A good watch thanks to Park Life and overall a good team performance with other chances created as well as the goals and just the one mistake at the back to give Bromley a goal and it was good to see Charlie and Brandon with a couple of goals each.

Re: Dartford v Torquay Utd Sat 25 Nov 2023
