The Dart(s) Board

Sorry to hear you've the wrong match again Paul.. Surely it must get better!
Matlock Town last week was quite entertaining going more aa a neutral, althouhh its not the same as following our former local obsession, but maybe that's the place for us until we see more consistency down South.

Good news. A Cup run at last and more prize money. Up the Darts.

Hoping for positive posts please while looking in at the Proctor Cars Stadium for Matlock Town v Workington at the wrong end of the Northerm Prem. No Wembley dreams for these two, but let's hope the Darts can progress and maybe get to 3QR.

Just spotted this on the Isthmian news website:-

Tilbury's Lewis Manor, who has already become a fan favourite despite only joining the club in the summer, unfortunately picked up a serious injury in midweek, and a fund raising effort has been launched on his behalf.

Teammate Lewis Clark has set ...

Good idea Stu and plenty to choose from. Difficult to argue against the leading choice from our first match.

Thanks Kev for snapping all the goals and sharing them with us - as always. Much appreciated and enjoyed by us distant Darts, although the Marlow defence looked very poor.
Also thanks to Park Life for the updates in the absence of a commentary as a non-X user.
Nice to look forward to participating ...

A bit of background about Sam from the Isthmian news website here;-

May be a good test for him at Hitchin, as they are bottom of the SLP Central conceding 13 goals in 4 games. I see he came on as a substitute in Saturday's 0-3 home ...

Thanks for checking Stu. Let's hope for a similar result and a long overdue cup run.

The only club in England to have played in every year since the Cup was started in 1871, and who reached the semi-finals in 1881/2 - according to Wikipedia.

Not sure if we've ever played against them.

Nice to read about some optimism on the forum, and hope to get down from the Peak District for a few games in the coming season. Good luck you Darts!

Probably very unlikely and academic, and not sure we would deserve a reprieve at the expense of fans disappointments elsewhere, but if Truro or another club were thrown out, I wonder if the reprieve would go to the highest 4th from bottom in either league. In the NLN, that's likely to be a team ...

It was all starting to sound so depressingly familiar with all the first half chances going begging, then conceding, so quite an unexpected turnaround. Well done lads and must be great joy for the travelling loyal and long suffering fans.
A confidence boost for the last few games. First win of the ...

All sounds so familiar from recent games. Chances spurned and conceding just before half time. Rivals winning elsewhere, so lots to do in the second half - we hope!

Nice to be back, and to see some old faces, for first game since moving to Derbyshire in October. However, the game was very average with little atmosphere or excitement. To have not been given a foul (possibly just outside the box), then see Taunton given a penalty straight from the breakaway ...

That was a tough nervy listen in 2nd half, but held out at last. Well done lads and the fans can enjoy the ride home now. Thanks for the excellent commentary. Onwards and upwards?

Logging in nervously from lunchtime walk. Hoping it's not deja vue from Tuesday's first half postings. Interesting team selection and our luck must change soon, surely.
And as I was about to post! Come on you Darts.

Thanks Pete. Yes, planning a weekend down South with Taunton at home on Feb 24th likely; will be my first match since watching 3 games in Aug/Sep, with some renewed hope.
Life's good in the Peak District, and moving here in October seemed a good time to be missing my Darts fix in hindsight, but it ...

Things are on the up already under TB's 4th/5th (?) managerial role, without even playing, as we leap up to 15th courtesy of Truro's 1-4 home defeat today. We head them now on goals scored with the same goal difference. A similar result down there on Tuesday would suit just fine, please.

With top ...

Well done the loanees! Can we hold out now?

Oh. So much for BBC Football Scores. Thanks for the update.
