The Dart(s) Board

For anyone thinking of creating a new topic, be aware any opinions or points of view out of line with those within the inner sanctum will be shunted off to the 'Any other discussions' thread'. Despite the subject matter being concerned with first team affairs. It won't be deleted completely as that ...

Just incase. Haven't heard from him this week. But I'm sure we're not managerless yet. Rudderless, yes. Maybe Al's disappeared to the Lake District for a few days. Who knows? What with players leaving by mutual consent etc, no one knows anything anymore. Unless you're a member of the prawn sandwich ...

Haven't seen or read any post match interviews yet. Including Kent Online.
Has there been a media blackout?

We've had two top managers at this level in Steve King and Alan Dowson. They can't both be wrong, can they? They've both banged on about the budget at times without directly criticising it and have had no choice other than to draw on their wide pool of contacts through the loan system to work within...

The board are the issue have been since the con national days we are run like a club for mates with no ambition or desire to grow the crowd numbers tell you that alone! Dowse shouldn’t have been given a 2 year contract after our Christmas onwards fall apart now he is too expensive to dismiss we nee...

Looking on the positive side, based on last season's league table the club is now just 21 points short of maintaining it's status as regular members of the National League South for another season.
No action from the board required then.

I must admit I was beginning to wonder if the game was still on earlier this morning or if it had been designated as home fans only bar the select few.

It was a thoroughly enjoyable cup tie with the proceeds donated by the fans going to a worthy cause. I felt it was worth paying the cost of the admission fee several times over. I understand £216 was collected but don't recall any mention of the supporters' contributions on Gemma's crowd funding page.

Today felt like an FA Cup tie. The minnows versus the full-time pros. It was a hard earned draw against a very good side. We couldn't have expected anymore. At one time I used to hope we would aspire to emulate teams like Yeovil today, considering the size of the stadium. But atleast the serious con...

Thoroughly enjoyable game Saturday. Unlike last season the festive period has arrived early. Diarra, Chin and Alexander provide a great spine to build a team around. Unfortunately they are not our players, with two of those loan periods due to expire by January. While the performance against Torquay...

Referee Emily Heaslip took charge of the FA Cup Final between Chelsea and Man United at Wembley last season, infront of 77,390 fans.

That's a shame as it will no doubt be another long away day rescheduled for midweek. It's also very tough on anyone who's booked accommodation for the game this weekend. Hopefully it's not too late to get refunded although it's cutting it a bit fine. For anyone who still fancies going to a game the ...

Let's hope there's good turnout for Gemma and the girls on Sunday. I doubt there will be many Dartford fans making the long journey to watch the men's team in Devon the day before, so it'll be an opportunity for everyone to still get their footie fix this weekend by supporting Dartford Football Club...

If I do nothing else this weekend I will most certainly be there on Sunday afternoon, not only to support this amazing team in the FA Cup, but to make a further contribution towards the ACL operation Gemma so desperately needs.

I'm becoming lost for words now.
Amid the doom and gloom in some quarters there is something very special happening at Princes Park at the moment.
With yet another great result for our very special group ladies away to Aylesford today.

Another great performance from the girls whose style of football is very enjoyable to watch.
Some great goals too. The pick of the bunch for me was our third goal being Paris Smith's 35 yard screamer.
Looking forward to seeing us back in league action at Aylesford tomorrow.

Attendance 204.
One more than the attendance at the following night's match in the Isthmian Premier between Kingstonian and Enfield.
Good turnout by Dartford supporters too.

Fantastic!

Catching the train home after the final whistle, the walk home from Dartford station felt mild compared to the usual chilly experience I always seem to suffer at that godforsaken ground at Ebbsfleet. And tonight was no different. Except it was at that same godforsaken ground that I witnessed one of ...

Probably not quite at our best today. But all credit to Crawley who came with a game plan you would expect from a side facing a team with a 100% record after six league games. It worked for them in the first half. In the second half captain Lizzie Adams opened the scoring, not for the first time thi...
