Re: Dartford v Truro City Sat 20 Apr 2024

Spike I agree with most of what you say most of the time but on this occasion it’s a no Coulson was dealt a bad hand by the clown in being made captain as he is no way captain material. However , he was the captain and on my view he is as culpable for our appalling season as the clown is. Coulson d...

Re: Pure DFC unofficial website

For a while now I’ve been posting match previews on the Pure DFC - unofficial website https://puredfc.co.uk/ I also read a few comments on here about the quality of the official website, which got me thinking… I’ve now added some new sections to the Pure DFC website. Although I don’t want to cover ...

Re: Dartford v Truro City Sat 20 Apr 2024

Surprised no one suggested keeping Nebhard. I'm not Fred. I wouldn't bother with him even he were interested in staying, which l doubt. Likewise Miller-Rodney, Wall, Greenidge and Wynter, all of whom were massively disappointing in the second half of the season. Allen and Block are regrettably too ...

Re: Dartford v Truro City Sat 20 Apr 2024

As bloody awful as this season has been, the facts are that if we had beaten Eastbourne we would now be favourites to stay up. Just that one result would have meant that we would have been in control of our own destiny today and may even have survived losing today against Truro. Small margins eh? I...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Ideas - a reserve/U23's team playing in a competitive league, (not a reserve league) it may bridge the gap for the talented current U18 team who have just won their league. Players/manager to acknowledge fans at the end of the game, whatever the result. Free season ticket for U16's. Free entry for ...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Really good idea Steve. I feel pretty sure that in a week or two, when the dust has started to settle on this car crash of a season, the Board will begin to honestly review where it all went wrong and what they could have done better, to avoid us turning from perennial play-off challengers into a re...

Re: The state of Dartford football club

We have to change our recruitment policy. Fundamentally that is what has cost us this season, poor quality signings from pre season and relying on loans is not sustainable. We've also not got out of the revolving door policy we've had since Steve King, I don't think we used as many players as King ...

Re: The state of Dartford football club

My view, for what it's worth, is that things started to wrong following the sacking of Steve King. I don't know the full extent of the issues that brought this about, but the appointment of Kingy was a brave one by the board and, for me, signalled really ambitious intent. I understand that it was ma...

Re: Dartford v Eastbourne Borough Mon 1 Apr 2024

How much abuse will I get for this post I wonder. How anyone can have an ounce of positivity left in them after what I saw today I don't know. That could have been 5-0 we got lucky it was only 2. Absolutely woeful. Never looked like scoring and MOST of the players simply do not care and aren't good...

Not like the players give a shit so why should I. If you don't give a shit, why bother posting? 🙄 On a slightly positive note, as Taunton and Eastbourne both lost by 4 goal margins, our respective goal difference has improved by one.... well, at least l tried! Monday's game is absolutely massive no...

Re: Dartford v Maidstone Utd Sat 16 Mar 2024

It’s just another match. We are likely to lose, but will be all square for a minute at least. LLLDLWLLLLLD is our twelve game form of 2024, five points garnered out of the 36. Said it plenty recently - we are not abjectly terrible, just as Maidstone are not outstanding - therefore if they have an o...

Re: Torquay Utd v Dartford Sat 9 Mar 2024

You're probably right, Dartford aren't in a financial mess like Taunton, Torquay and others. However unlike Dartford they have don't have the benefit of a 'free' stadium built at local tax payers expense, being able to play matches in a stadium 'rent-free' and also not having the financial benefit ...
