Re: Dartford v Braintree Town Tue 21 Nov 2023

Suffice to say absolute crap and I left immediately they scored the second goal along with several other fans so over 20 minutes missed thank goodness. I will be there Saturday purely as a season ticket holder just to be counted actually in the ground rather than one of the many missing from tonight...

Re: FA Trophy 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Maidstone Sat Nov 18 2023

I have just got back from watching ice hockey and the Invicta Dynamos' the last time was about 40 years ago when they were called the Medway Bears. Things haven't changed that much there was plenty of action enthusiasm dribbling hard tackling plenty of shots on goal and lots of encouragement from th...

Re: FA Trophy 2nd Qualifying Round - Dartford v Maidstone Sat Nov 18 2023

I just couldn't take any more so left with around 5 minutes of normal time to go and wasn't prepared for a draw and penalty shoot-out but in my mind I felt that Maidstone might just get the win so logged on when I got home and yes WLWLWLW Lose. So much poor finishing when chances created blasting mo...

Re: Dartford v Weston-super-Mare Tue 31 Oct 2023

Well done to the players tonight for their second half performance and to WSM for missing so many chances in the first half plus a missed penalty thanks to a very good save from Beeney. Almost everyone summing up the game in the same way as we gained 3 points for the win but it still leaves us worry...

Re: Hemel Hempstead Town FC v Dartford Sat 28 Oct 2023

This is so depressing and with 70 years of watching the Darts from the age of 5 up until now I must admit to having seen several managers moved on either from sackings or by mutual consent and this is the current situation we now find our selves in so I am just waiting on Dowse either doing the hono...

Re: Tom Bonner

Sorry slightly off the subject of Tom Bonner but I blame Jonty when he mentioned Hi Skip, hope you have settled into deepest Suffolk. Just had a look at my Princes Among Men almanac and it says Colin scored 39 goals for the Darts in just over 300 appearances. Just as I was closing the book I noticed...

Re: Eastbourne v Dartford Tue 24 Oct 2023

Park Life summed up the game as I didn't attend last night We were on top first half and the better team but their keeper didn't really have to make a decent save. Second half they started well and were on top for about 15 minutes before we worked ourselves back into the game and were the better sid...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Pete We go back a long way not just at school but as fans of The Darts for many years 1953-54 was my first season but at 5 years old I can only recall one player from then Jeff Newstead who had signed in 1951 and then continued playing for us through to 1962-63 so I aged along with him. Then being a...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

GordonRoadDart said Very sad to hear this news about Bob Taylor. I believe that he scored in both matches against Exeter in the famous FA Cup victory in 1961. Top Yes two in the Saturday away game at Exeter with a crowd of 6162 and one in the Wednesday home game and yes a crowd of 6739 for the after...

Re: St Albans City v Dartford Sat 9 Sep 2023

Spike Said I've seen every game so far this season but with morale plummeting, the team in disarray and temperatures set to exceed 33C on Saturday, I'll probably be giving this one a miss. Not least because the one and only player I enjoyed watching in the last two games (Archie Woods) was surprisin...
