The Dart(s) Board

Following the FLARE up of the season the other week I'm looking forward to next seasons Xmas and New Year derby games already.

Dowson

It's common knowledge among anyone who knows anything about non-league football what Steve King is about. His ambition has always been to manage in the football league. He has also said that in the absence of any such offers he would therefore have to take a non-league club into league 2 himself. Wh...

Kedwell didn't exactly set the world alight at Cray. Sevenoaks looked doomed under Collins. Collins at Dartford could well find us in a relegation battle. On the other hand Kedwell would probably keep us up. But should such an appointment be made it would represent a seismic shift in the ambitions o...

Poor Webbedfeet wind up attempt there!! Could this be the same person who threw a flare onto the pitch, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, effectively slamming the door firmly shut on Ebbsleet's return to the National League with seconds remaining? If so, maybe they are looking for a new fo...

Where's Hessenthaler going then?

Steve King is a good manager. I don't believe his man-management skills are his strongest point however, but his knowledge of the game, of players playing up and down the coutry and his contacts book the size of an encyclopaedia, is unrivalled. It would be foolhardy to sack a manager unless there is...

I'm not sure Steve King is held in quite the same esteem as Jurgen Klopp is by his Liverpool players.

More like Brian Clough at Leeds.

Greenidge for Dinanga.

Need all our strikers don't we?

Do we have to play at Princes Park?

Can't we go to their place?

Seven now. Madness.
Come on Captain Sheringham!

This is ridiculous. We've gone from almost going the entire season unbeaten at home to not being able to hit a barn door at Princes Park.
Six at Slough and now another six so far at Eastbourne.
This makes the Braintree debacle look even worse.

Quote from Hakan Hayrettin, Maidstone manager after winning the title in his first full season in charge.

"I have stuck with the same squad, I have probably used the least number of players, and they have worked tirelessly for me."

Hard to believe a good man-manager like Alan Dowson is currently out of work. Anyway, back to today's game and what an abysmal affair it was. Anyone neutral would be forgiven for thinking this was a run of the mill, end of season game with both sides having nothing to play for. Basically we've gone ...

Dorking's injury list was horrendous at the start of the season. They stuck by their squad putting the onus on others to step up to the plate. Determined not to let their injury hit team mates down they did just that. The team spirit forged within their squad has made them an efficient unit. They al...

Were there many away fans in attendance this evening? I don't blame anyone for not travelling down. Attendances have been dropping across the pyramid recently. Not surprising considering the cost of fuel with the add ons that come with it. It's the last thing we need on the back of Covid. The quicke...

This is not the first time we've struggled through going a man down. It seems when Dorking see red they are more likely to increase their lead or atleast see the game out to get a result. We tend to concede from this position. I guess that's why Marc White's squad is championship material and we're ...

Difficult to choose MOTM as everyone played their part but I narrowed it down to three. Kalvin Kalala, Jayden Sweeney and George Porter. I'm really pleased the way the game went for George yesterday. I was very impressed with him during pre-season and could never understand why he's never got enough...

Dan Roberts was an unused sub down at Horsham tonight.
