Darts form is awful but it is a derby game so form doesn't really mean too much, add to that the fact they are now truly in a relegation fight and I think we've got a tough game on our hands but I think we will edge it.
Hopefully there's no trouble from the 'yoof' (keep the passion, lose the aggro).
Don't forget Stones fans need to buy tickets online in advance as no payments on turnstiles according to OS. Hopefully we get close to our 600 allocation.

Great though the win was over Chelmsford, it will be greatly diminished if we don't beat Dartford. However, a win is probably even more important to them, so am sure George has emphasised that.
Equally, if miserable Torquay can beat them 4-1, we ought to do the same. Football ain't like that though...
As for attending, presumably nothing to stop anyone turning up incognito, as it were? Might be wise not to get too excited, I suppose.

We might get a consolation goal. |

Rather pissed off today. Our half-dead boiler has effectively grounded me and scuppered any lingering hopes of going away tomorrow.
Farnborough was my reserve final away game, but (after half an hour of checking out roads, trains, etc) I realised that's while we're on holiday!!!!
I'd floated Eastbourne as a possible family day out, but our daughter is back from uni for the Easter weekend, so that failed too.
So, that's it for this season. Although, if we end up in the playoffs, I guess every game is going to be away!

For those (like jdl and me) not going to the match, you can get a Darts fix at en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darts_(band) - doo wop or wot!

With Stones only featuring in the outskirts of the play offs, this is really a 'Must Win' game.

desperately wanted to make this one, but sometimes it’s a Saturday too many.
Agree that it is must win; Darts look a poor side but Pennock was a good manager at the step about last time he was in the UK (albeit turning us down in favour of a jolly in Asia for 5 years and leaving us with the clown).
They have enough ex-Stones to inevitably score against us so think it’ll be a hard fought game.

We deserved the win. Darts were not awful to be fair. Lacking a cutting edge maybe. I think we had a gear or two if needed.
If they play like that every week surely they’ll pick up enough points to stay up?

Fantastic goal and overall performance from Liam Sole (motm IMHO). Decent performance from all of the rest of the team too.

Job done - with some style by the sound of it.
Although it was painful to listen to SL - every time something interesting happened, the bloody signal dropped! I missed the goal AND the sending off.
3rd place is in our grasp now, perhaps even 2nd - going to be an interesting end to the season...
You've got to feel sorry for Darts though. Ha, ha, ha!

It’s a struggle JDL to feel sorry for Dartford! Great goal by Liam who was a pillar of strength in our cup run. A Stones FA Cup legend. |
