Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sat 23 Dec 2023

Initially I was delighted with Dowson's appointment. But I can no longer defend the indefensible. The Baris Altintop affair has all but done it for me. Which leads me to his previous tenure at Woking. He stayed out of the game after his sacking, timing his return to management on his own terms by g...

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sat 23 Dec 2023

I see Dowse completely avoided the question about Baris leaving, instead he chose to waffle. How the hell can you have 2 players signed and then at the last minute it doesn’t happen. Quite clearly the players aren’t signed then are they, they can only be signed once they’ve put pen to paper and ever...

Re: Dartford v St Albans City Sat 23 Dec 2023

Parklife motm again? I was going to make Santa an option - but decided on just the players just to see if anyone gets any votes. I voted for Chinn as he seemed to cover so much ground today and tried to chase every ball even when it looked a lost cause. There was only about 4 players that put any s...

Re: Tonbridge Angels v Dartford Sat 16 Dec 2023

No worries guys, you hibernate until we’re in the champions league. I’m done with people who think we are dicks because we aren’t Man City. End. I don’t think it’s a case of Man City DA because at present we aren’t even Chatham and lower. Our standard of football is absolutely dreadful, certainly n...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

He left us and joined Bromley for a couple of seasons before they let him go. He then joined King at H & W before being released due to their finances.
He’s now at Welling.

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Tom Bonner sent off playing for Cray Wanderers at Hastag Utd. Andy Pugh scores two for Phoenix Sports but 38 year old Ryan Hayes scores another beauty in their 3-1 win over Ashford Town. Saturday just gone I was deciding whether to see Phoenix play at home (seeing Ryno and Pughy play) and the Darts...

Re: Player news

Well Dowse did say that he’s hoping to bring in another midfielder and one that has played for us previously.
Let’s hope it is another strong midfielder and possibly a winger but also that Chinns loan has been extended.

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

I see Reece Charles-Cooke was given a straight red card for Welling tonight on 39mins away to Aveley.
Ended up in a 2-2 draw.

Re: Dartford v Torquay Utd Sat 25 Nov 2023

One of if not the best footballing performance from the team this season, some quality on the deck football instead of the normal hoof hit & hope football we are used to seeing. I think almost all of the crowd must have been in shock and thought they had gone to the wrong ground when at halftime...

Re: Dartford Players of The Past

Reece Charles-Cook has also left Havant to join Welling.

Havant have had to have a bit of a clear out from what I hear to lower their wage bill.

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

It might of helped if Dowse hadn’t wasted some of the budget signing so many injury prone players and those that can’t last 90 mins. To be honest most of his signings this season have been very poor, he’s either gone against what he originally said he was going to do OR he’s gone for strong physical...

Re: Dowson: Defending has to shape up - 09/11/23

Dowse even has the nerve to blame Beeney and say he was poor on Tuesday night 😳😳😳. If it wasn’t for Beeney making the saves he did then the score line would’ve been a hell of a lot worse than losing 1-2. I’m afraid Dowse is just becoming an even bigger joke as each week passes and is quite happy to ...

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

From watching the highlights I realised that Luke Coulson actually set up 3 of our 4 goals and scored one, I originally thought he’d only set up 2. Alex Walls 2nd yellow was a very clumsy challenge and no real need for it but the ref was sucked in by the WSM player who went down so easily knowing Al...

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

First half was absolutely dire and had WSM had the right shooting boots on we could’ve been about 0-4 down, they was far more hungry for the ball and chased down everything. Thankfully Beeney saved their penalty which seemed to liven us up a bit and it was just after that we managed to level at 1-1 ...

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

When you are getting the likes of Park Life & Spike making the kind of comments they have and especially saying time for a change then things really have got bad. I don’t know how much longer the board can give Dowse to be honest because it’s just one piss poor performance after the next, it rea...
