Not creating a thing. Dover are poor and we're not much better..We need that goal, we can turn it around.

Bottled it again imagine my surprise
Marsden is an absolute joke of a keeper, should be the first one out of the door this summer.

Followed this on the commentary so no idea how it transpired, but it sounded as if Dover came with a game plan which worked perfectly for them. They seemed to have our atracking threat closed down and taken their goal and promotion.
Gutted, but you have to say the team and manager turned this around. I'd have bitten your arm off for a play off place in October.
But we're stuck here for next season. Let's hope we build on the foundations.

Poor game. Didn't deserve it. Not sure the best team won. Not a lot to choose from both.
Still I'm sure Sweet would have enjoyed it.
Denzelle by a long way our best player.

Relegated after fighting playoffs to the National Prem for years and people are happy with Isthmian playoffs, knowing what will happen with our playoffs record.
We were awful all over the pitch. 2nd best to everything and Dover deserved the win.

Poor game, poor result.
Dover weren’t anything special but done a job on us as we just didn’t turn up.
Foundations are there for next season but how many players can we realistically keep? This was our chance this year to go up and we blew it. Next year won’t be any easier.
Oh well, see you in July! COYD

Difficult to take yet another play off disappointment, but being as objective as possible I think the better team won out today. We created very little from open play but credit to Dover who defended very solidly and always looked dangerous on the break.

Anyway… real fan’s opinion (I paid with Monopoly money)
We were second best today. Agree with other comments that neither side was brilliant but Dover set up better. We got turned too many times in midfield as well.
Proud of the lads for getting this far. We will lose one or two players but we go again

Becoming Par for the course when DFC reach a play off , never turn up when it matters . Can except a defeat if we actually put in a performance , but a couple of lame shots at goal over 90 minutes is not good enough at any level , especially in a play off final at home . You can say Dover done a job on us , but they weren’t that great and they didn’t have to be today . So another season in the Isthmian league it is 
Awful game !
