Re: Taunton Town v Dartford Sat 20 Aug 2022

To say today was a disappointment would be an understatement, especially after going 1 up against a team that hasn't scored all season. I'm still trying to stay positive, if we learnt anything from last season it's that the season isn't won or lost in the first 10 games as long as we can get some re...

Re: Dartford v Havant & Waterlooville Tue 16 Aug 2022

Having not attended last night and reading through posts from those who did, it is some consolation that although we didn't get the result we put in a performance that was worthy of at least a draw. When I looked at the fixtures before the season this is one I had marked down as one of the toughest ...

Re: Dartford v Havant & Waterlooville Tue 16 Aug 2022

Unfortunately won't be at the game tonight due to other commitments; as others have said this will be a very tough test and I do believe Havant will be up there come the end of the season. Hopefully can get another win and a good performance to go with it too. Interested to see what team Dowse puts ...

Re: Dartford v Cheshunt Sat 13 Aug 2022

Opening 10-15 were nervous but we took complete control of the game and dominated. The attacking football on show was some of the best I can ever remember, we could've had many more than 2, especially as we should've had 1 maybe 2 penalties for handball. Can't fault any of the players today, a shame...

Looking forward to today, hopefully the heat doesn't put too many off and we get a good crowd.

On the subject of the weather are we allowed to bring our own water into the ground?

Re: Bath City v Dartford Sat 6 Aug 2022

Listened to the commentary, sounded like it was a cagey first half from both sides but we grew into the game better than they did. Would love to hear reports from those who were at the game.

Couldn't have asked for more from the first game, clean sheet and 3 points.

Bring on next week!

Re: Bath City v Dartford Sat 6 Aug 2022

Not attending today, will be there next week. But excited for the season to get underway. Will be interesting to see what the team is like, especially attacking I'm not sure if Wall/Sheringham are both fit enough, cant see them starting but we will soon find out. I do expect Rodari and Roberts to st...

Re: The new season

I do also feel were still 2-3 players short. I think we'll have slow start to the season and hopefully have a few more faces in by the time we're 5 or so games in and cam hopefully push on as we get closer to Christmas. It was always going to be a tough ask for Dowse to pretty much completely rebuil...

Re: Pre season friendly Canvey Island v Dartford Sat 30th July 2022 at 3pm

Sounds like Dowse is signing the No 18 trialist from todays game, he only played the 1st half today but scored against Boreham Wood. He’s also bringing in 2 loanee’s this week from higher league clubs. That is Pierre Fonkeu 5th..was at hemel last season. Just googled Pierre, played 11 times for Hem...

I hope I’m wrong , I hope dartford are successful on and off the pitch as u have grandchildren I would like to take to watch or to play for the club .

Re: Pre season friendly Canvey Island v Dartford Sat 30th July 2022 at 3pm

I'd also like to hear some thoughts as I wasnt there today, my feelings remain the same that we are still 3-4 players short.

Whilst the result isn't important it is still slightly concerning going into the season on the back of a defeat.

Re: Pre season friendly - Chatham Town v Dartford Tue 26 July 2022 at 19.45

I am also concerned about the lack of signings, while we've had some very good players through the door and players from last season hitting another level I still feel like we're 3 or 4 players short and need cover for multiple positions. Wall has has 10? minutes this pre season which is a concern a...

Re: Pre season friendly - Dartford v Millwall Tue 12 Jul 2022 at 19.45

Were we bad? Unfortunately couldn't make tonight so any reports welcome, hopefully we put in a respectable performance. No we played really well, just a few of the Dartford youth causing issues! They won’t learn until either things really kick off or they get the club into trouble. Millwall are the...

Re: Player news

Delighted that Dan has re-signed, thought he was our best player last season and definitely our most consistent. I was almost certain he was going to move on and go on to play at least 1 level above so this is a welcome surprise. I feel like we have a strong core now at this point with key players f...
