The Dart(s) Board

I'm sure I saw somewhere, the interview Ady did last Friday described as a weekly interview. If so, maybe we will see one tomorrow. To be honest, I think that's more than enough as Dowse certainly put an end to my desire to hear the manager's thoughts. Ady seems to talk coherently and in a recognis...

If we tot up 56 points I’ll eat my own face.

This Olly Box situation is so disappointing to hear. The catalogue of errors from top to bottom at our club this season is bewildering. Constant bad decision after bad decision, a disinterested auditor would be forgiven for thinking there was a saboteur on the inside. Many decent folk have given up....

Status Quo song springs to mind…

Gloucester are at home to Tamworth tonight - so they would have had to kick-off at 11pm or later

Might come to that in April!

Tomorrow’s game is a bit like the last ten or so, in that a win suddenly breathes a bit of life back into our hopes of survival.
But it has been that way for two months now and in 90% of those matches we’ve come away with tails between our legs.

We have to hope Braintree have a bad day.

Braintree A Maidstone H Hemel H Truro A Chelmo A Eastbourne H Havant A Worthing H Yeovil A Truro H I predict eight points - wins against Hemel & Truro (H) and draws against Eastbourne & Worthing. Don’t expect any points away as I’ve only seen us take three at Dover (which doesn’t really coun...

I’m confused. One week there are “Can’t fault the players’ effort” comments and the next they are spineless charlatans? It’s not easy to pinpoint the exact downfall of this season as before 2024 dawned there was no concept of relegation at all. Can only think we have had a sub-standard team all seas...

Any Darts fans going to the match tomorrow are advised not to visit any of the pubs close to the ground. I was out in Torquay last night with a cousin who lives quite close to the ground in the St Marychurch area and he warned that the local pubs are not very welcoming to away supporters. :shock: T...

Nice to be able to understand him and no comments about the budget! Can’t deny we have moved late to replace Dowson and it may be all too late for Pennock to save us, but it would’ve been much worse had DFC not appointed anyone before season close and we had indeed “sleepwalked into relegation”. One...

We’ll be lucky sods if that happens!

Nice positive post Duke

At Gloucester, so you’d like to think Taunton wouldn’t get any closer than their “hosts”.

Case of cosmic ordering results for Angels and Braintree today.
Truro v Taunton fairly academic.

Jay speaks really well again on the Kent Non-League podcast (ep. 286). Rare to hear such enthusiasm and passion.

Welcome aboard Ady. Your mission: 12 points from eleven games.
Very best of luck mate.

Gloucester will surely be sympathetic to the waterlogged pitch situation, but that is an incredible distance for a home game relocation! Where’s next for Truro? Telford? Gateshead?!

I’m not so sure?? Depends if they want to slow down a bit & semi retire down to the south coast or live in the thriving, multi cosmopolitan, bustling, 24/7 hub of activity that is Dartford?? Where many of the pubs these days often close before Sainsbury's. You could try turning up before 10:30!...

Oh for a team of Coulsons and Boxes. Both of these guys ooze skill in attack and seek back when our opponents press. There is no doubt that tonight’s substitutions rocked the (reasonably steady) ship; Rooney is probably not best suited to CB, but was doing a decent job there and his removal saw Avel...
