The Dart(s) Board

Good run of form undone again, and if we carry that onto the league we have no hope of going up.

How do you know how I feel and whether I am a true dartford fan kebabus
Almost every football fan says oh well we’ll concentrate on the league when a cup match is lost
You are so far off the mark talking about me it’s not worth a conversation
Take your frustration out on someone else mate

Looks like we'll be making the front pages of the Non-League Paper tomorrow then.
Albeit for the wrong bloody reasons.

Gutted again. Really hoped gor a win, but it just didn't happen. I can't comment on the game as I didn't see it, but it is a kick in the nuts similar to Sudbury. Hope we bounce back first time as we can't sfford to go on smother Sudbury-effect run.

Wasn't there so I can't comment but once again we are undone by a team from the lower leagues.
I will wait for the reports from the regular posters as to.what went wrong again.

Very disappointing result, one day just one day we might get to that Trophy final.
Seen us get so close a few times under Taylor and then TB when we lost out to Grimsby.
Thought we had a great chance this year with such a talented squad but it is not to be.

At least Ebbsfleet lost at home a small crumb I know but better than nothing.

We were absolutely outplayed from start to finish ,so no excuses . I can go on about the referee and linesman being home bias but that won’t retract from the fact of us being poor throughout . Move on : another forgettable trip to Suffolk .

Next season we'll reach the first round of the FA Cup, draw Ipswich away, and win!

We have every right to be frustrated, but let's not overreact like some people on twitter.

We're 7 points behind Dorking with a game in hand and we still have Dorking and Maidstone to come to Princes Park. There's plenty of time left in this season to make sure it's not a failure and we need to support the team like we saw at the Welling and Ebbsfleet games.

Promotion is the aim at the end of the day, this trophy would've been a bonus.

Normal service has resumed!

Have you been hacked

What a dreadful performance today. There is something about Suffolk and the officials that ply their trade in Suffolk that makes it pointless travelling to play there. However, top marks to the officials and helpers who made us very welcome and did a great job facing a crowd much larger than they are used to.

I am not sure what happened on the pitch, but we did not seem able to string more than three passes together at any stage and we were feeding on scraps. We never had any decent possession and the reason may be that whenever we challenged for the ball, we were penalised. If we shielded the ball, we were penalised. It meant that we were never able to get a foothold in the game. I may be wrong, but I do not believe we were awarded one free kick in the first half. We were awarded just one in the second half, just on the half way line. That does not make sense to me. We were given two, maybe three yellow cards, yet there was not a bad challenge in the game. Even with this great advantage, Needham could not score. Better give them a penalty then. From a corner a striker falls theatrically to his knees and the penalty is given. Dan almost saved it, but if he had I expect the ref would have let them take it again.

Sadly this was not a football match. Cant wait to see a real match of football again soon.

So disappointed with the performance today I wasn’t going to bother with a MOTM vote , but just for effort it has to be IMO Danny Leonard .

Very disappointed with the display today murtagh as captain doesn't work continuously I was shouting come on murts let's hear you not once encouraging words the ref was no better than a Sunday league ref who from min 1 was on home side sides robbo rans socks of Leonard wanted ball very rarely got it pitch was awful so was darts 1st touch where was the confidence on the ball today

Onto the league let's get back behind the boys

Difficult conditions with a very strong wind blowing down the pitch, which seemed bobbly, but no excuse for such a disappointing disjointed effort. No help from ref, but we wasted too much effort moaning and contesting fouls and yellow cards. Fairly even first half, then fell away until the last 2 late subs injected a bit of effort and a header just wide in injury time.

We move on and hope to recover at Hungerford. Good luck to Needham Market on their historic Trophy run.

That was a horrendous pitch, what with the swirling wind you couldn’t play football on that!
We should have gone route one from the off, they obviously did!!
Some strange decisions from the officials, think he booked about 5 or 6 of ours & seemed to have it in for Azeez!!
But they are in the last 8 & we’re not!!
