Just noticed its playing vids in only 360 as default. No idea why but you can change it to a higher quality

Re: Hastings Utd v Dartford Sat 30 Nov 2024
One of the best performances from us so far this season with some excellent football being played at times. Really the score line should’ve been at least 0-5 with the chances we had, Olopade skied it over from about 5yrs out and Eddie should’ve made it 0-4 right near the end of the game but took to long and let the defender get the tackle in. We need these goals to get our goal difference up.
Not taking anything away from our performance but Hastings was very poor opposition and only really got close to scoring once in the 1st half when they hit the crossbar at 0-0 apart from that I don’t recall Jacob having to make a single save.
Olly Box was yet again by far the MOTM and was superb, his work ethic is crazy with his non stop running & chasing the whole time, it was no surprise at all that he was eventually taken off in place of Duane. Callum Jones yet again was non stop running and would’ve been taken off in the end had Sam Okoye not had to limp off.
Now 8 without a loss fingers crossed Ade and the team have hit that turning point where they are all starting to gel together and the results are coming in the right direction.
I still think we need a couple of extra players especially a winger and a strong back up keeper to challenge Jacob and keep him on his toes.
Well Done Ade & the team on another good result let’s just hope we can keep it going especially against much stronger opposition.

I agree 5th, must not get too carried away with this win. Hastings are obviously struggling with their own problems. But also this could have been a potential
skin and it seems we took to the game in a professional way.
It was good to win though and to carry on with our unbeaten run.

Was Rodari playing for Hastings?

Re: Hastings Utd v Dartford Sat 30 Nov 2024
Thanks 5th, just wondered.
As for a winger I went up to see the little winger at Faversham that impressed me a couple of weeks ago.He's Keiron Campbell and against VCD yesterday was very quiet. In fact a pretty uneventful game altogether.
Never mind

What a great day out that was, made better by a great team performance. For the first time in many years I can feel a connection with this group of players. Whether they win, lose or draw they give it their all for 90 minutes and how pleasing was it to see Rodari chasing shadows and his constant complaining.
Hastings also have a relatively young team but we just ran them into the ground and when Samir went off we just cranked it up another level. To top it off our opponents payed homage to one of our own supporters by naming their shed after him. Can you believe it, Parky will never let us forget it either. Equally, I can’t believe 1438 were in attendance, it looked more like 700/800 to me.

A very good turnout from the Darts fans and special thanks to the youngsters who were not stop singing and chanting throughout the game behind the goal excellent support for the team and entertaining for the rest of us.
A thoroughly good performance throughout the game from all our players giving 100% effort and chasing down every ball creating numerous chances and scoring enough goals for a very good win.
As has been mentioned we should have had a couple more goals in the closing minutes of the game which would have helped the goal difference a bit more but the win is the main thing 3 points and on to the next game and hopefully more goals to come.

Really. Oh dear.
It's pleasing that the team are coming together and starting to reap rewards.
Must be really galling for some on here.
