Re: Dartford v Hampton & Richmond Tue 15 Aug 2023

Surprised Bradbury was substituted. He was a constant threat all evening. Our keeper didn't have a lot to do unlike theirs who pulled off a couple of great saves. No complaints about the sending off but the other guy retaliated and went unpunished. This was always going to be the toughest league to ...

Re: Weymouth v Dartford Sat 12 Aug 2023

I take it there's no news on the signing Dowes has been after for months.
It can't be Golding if he's only here for 1 month.

Re: Dartford v Bath City Sat 5 Aug 2023

I thought that Wilks was an Excellent Keeper but Dowes wouldn't play him and he leaves. Any idea why Dowse wouldn't play him ? It's a strange one that I never quite understood. Everyone I know thought Wilkes was an excellent keeper but I'm told that some of his his now departed teammates thought he...

Re: Player news

I think Charlie Sheringham would make a good club captain. Like Tom Bonner he's been around long enough and knows the club inside out. Infact, I believe he was happy to accept a wage cut a few seasons ago. He's here because he wants to be and buys into what the club is about. He's a good guy to have...

Re: Fixtures 23/24

Atleast the local pubs will be open after the home game versus Welling on the 30th December. If it was New Year's Day you might be lucky to get one in before last orders, followed by 10 minutes drinking up time to throw the second pint down your neck. And they are the nearest pubs to the ground. 50 ...

Re: Fixtures 23/24

The Bull & Vic used to be around £40 per night pre-Covid. Now it costs 4 times as much to crash out in a bloody dive. Hotels are behaving like gamblers on a losing streak, desperately trying to win back their losses. It'll be cheaper to find an all-night bar after an away game and catch the firs...

I look forward to reading Luke's autobiography.
That's if I can find it in Waterstones as I'm not sure which category it will come under.

Re: Player news

The National League at North & South level gets stronger every season as more investment flows into the game. For those who believe we would struggle in the Prem within our existing structure, the same will eventually apply to our position in the South. It's a bit like Dartford itself really, go...

Re: Player news

I think atleast a few of us knew Tom Bonner was thinking of hanging up his boots on the evening following the play-off semi-final.
Fair play to everyone who refrained from going public on the forum out of respect for Tom.
Retiring from football is one of the toughest decisions a player has to make.

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Don't think Warren will ever forget his hat-trick for the Darts,. Who was it against again?🤔 Oh yes, Oxford City. Ah yes. A second half hat-trick following a 4-0 half time lead. October 2017? I was left disappointed. I hadn’t ever seen an ‘eight’ before and they had 21 minutes left to do it! 😂 And ...

Re: News from around the National League South

The new investment in Eastbourne Borough was touch and go until a few days ago. I suggested that Kingy would be a good fit for a club with money to spend. I've received a mixed response from Borough fans, a good few of which are not happy with the sacking of Danny Bloor, who to be fair has done a go...

Re: Player news

Around a decade ago Tony Burman put a squad together to win the National South outright. Then we got that ill fated National League reprieve due to the financial irregularities surrounding Salisbury City. Fast forward to 2023 and we're getting a squad together to reach the play-offs. Princes Park's ...

I was also under the impression Harvey was contracted to Dorchester next season.

Perhaps we've paid a fee for him. Ouch!

Re: News from around the National League South

Sounds like it's a good thing we didn't go up then. If we can't afford Jeffers then who could we afford, if anyone, had we found ourselves in the National League? Relegation would have been confirmed quicker than Maidstone. We might might as well stay where we are as our attendances continue to dwin...
