Directions:
By Car:

Exit M25 at Junction 30 and take the A13 towards Southend. You will reach a series of mini roundabouts. At these roundabouts, take the A130 towards Canvey Island. At the next roundabout take the 2nd exit which will keep a sports centre on your right and follow signs for Canvey Island Football Club. Eventually, you will enter a one way system. Keep left through the one way system and after one mile you will pass the Transport Museum on your right. Park Lane is on the right hand side shortly afterwards, with The Prospects Stadium located in front of you. There is plenty of parking outside the ground.

By Train:

Benfleet Station is 40 minutes from London Fenchurch Street and 50 minutes from London Liverpool Street on the C2C line. The station is 5 miles from the ground. There is a taxi rank around the back of the station. Alternatively, you can use the frequent bus service from the front of the station:

By Bus:

You can use the number 22 or 27 bus to be dropped directly outside Park Lane. Alternatively, you can use the number 21 or 21A to be dropped by the sea wall. From here, continue walking in the direction you travelled across some playing fields, and you will see The Prospects Stadium on your left.

1-0 down. Free kick.

Worrying

I can’t attend today but with only 1 week to go now I’m interested to see any thoughts on todays game. Yep it’s only a friendly but so close to first game it has its importance.

I'd also like to hear some thoughts as I wasnt there today, my feelings remain the same that we are still 3-4 players short.

Whilst the result isn't important it is still slightly concerning going into the season on the back of a defeat.

It was pretty turgid stuff. Dont want to read too much into friendlies but that was a bit concerning. Thought i was back in Sudbury. Pierre Fonkeu didnt really back up his decent performance against Boreham Wood and the only forward who looked like he belongs in the NLS was Danny Roberts.

It really wasn’t great viewing from us. Poor first half. Livened up a little second half and I’ll echo the view about Dan Roberts playing well. Likewise yes it was a friendly but you want to see some promise from the performance. Anyway on to Bath where it gets real and let’s hope it’s better than today.

Haven't seen any of the ore-season games and my comments here are based upon results, strength of squad, highlights and the opinions of others. So, we’ll do very very well to come away from Bath next Saturday with a draw. I’m my opinion the squad is lightweight. Hope Dan Roberts fulfills his immense promise in front of goal, otherwise not sure here our goals will come from.

Sincerely hope I’m proved wrong!

Get on Bath for Saturday , earn a few quid!

I hope I’m wrong , I hope dartford are successful on and off the pitch as u have grandchildren I would like to take to watch or to play for the club . If this squad provides a play off season under this manager who at minute has assembled that won’t challenge for play offs, I will apologise and donate 100 pound to charity oim wrong and feel sorry for Tom bonner who should of got the job , but probably wouldn’t of been the yes man the board wanted.

If this squad provides a play off season under this manager who at minute has assembled a embarrassing squad and comes across as the boards poodle , I will apologise and donate 100 pound to charity of his choice. I so hope im wrong and feel sorry for Tom bonner who should of got the job , but probably wouldn’t of been the yes man the board wanted.

You'd rather have Tom Bonner who has no managerial experience whatsoever than Dowse who has proven himself at this level? Baffling. How did Coyle and Flanagan get on when they were here?

Its pre season and people already overreacting

We will see

Giving the new manager time usually suggests significantly more than one second of competitive football!
