The Dart(s) Board

Started the first half well but Dulwich quickly came into the game and looked a decent side. Felt we finished the half on top but overall pretty even half.
Second half thought we got stronger as the game went on and put them under a fair bit of pressure late on, however they did look a threat on the counter attack and a draw was probably a fair result.

At times we played some decent stuff again but feel when we have been at our best under Steve we have had a threat going forward form both flanks but imo i don't think we've had that as much recently. Just felt we looked a bit unbalanced with not as many options going forward down the left, i think it's just a case of getting the right balance from the talented group pf players we have.

Ade and Jake battled hard all game on mostly scraps so be good when we get back to our free flowing football again, i'm confident we will as i've seen glimpses of it in the last few games.

Dan.W had a good game with a great save late on but MOTM for me was Noor, another good performance from him.

Special mention to Jay for getting the pitch playable and to both teams for putting on a decent match in terrible conditions.

Ah, got it Steve. Saw the Essam miss and turned it off. Thought the Wilks save was long before that.

Having identified this as a [ seasons] weakness then surely emphasis should be placed during tues/thurs training nights

One of the very best crossers of a ball [ which accumulated for 100s of goals for the Darts ] was a guy named " Ryan Hayes " who on match day used to practice [ crossing] for 30mins before kick of , perhaps Kingy should acquire his talents on a consultancy basis for tuesday/thurs nights only ??

Why NOT , we have specialist Goalkeeping Coaches ?????

I feel sure that Elliot Bradbrook will give Kingy a reference !!!

because he isnt good at anything else and the game requires a lot more.
Move on.

I thought yet again the centre backs were immense just like they were at Ebsfleet. They get let down by others not tracking etc. Tom Bonnor gets better and better even still. Its disappointing he doesnt get MOM a little more. He is 8/9 out of 10 every week.

Oh well , lets just hope that Kingy can get the message across that 30 poor crosses per game isnt good enough and does something about it !!!!!!!!!!!
