Talking of “true fans” (I hate that phrase), shouldn’t season ticket holders get first refusal when match tickets are limited? Not sure that's a restriction you can apply to online tickets for away games. It's always applied to home cup games and games where the club were selling tickets themselves, eg the playoff final.

Difficult one for Darts fans - watch your team beat those Maidstone bastards, like they did in the Cup, and possibly bugger up their championship chances, or watch your team get thrashed again, like they did away, and 'enjoy' the Stones fans singing 'We're on our way to the National League' in full voice. I wonder how many will stay away to avoid the latter (and I suspect they think the more likely) outcome? Did you stay away when we were dire in the NL? True fans support their team when things aren't going great, and anyway, Darts are looking at securing as high a playoff place as possible, and can still mathematically win the league. What kind of supporters would stay away in those circumstances. Dave, you could pick a fight in an empty room! I was clearly talking about the casual fans. Just like the 500-1,000 of ours who only turn up when we're winning.

I guess Hak is more than a bit worried that the lads will play the occasion rather than the game. Such a big one for both clubs. Darts want to secure a top 3, Stones are aiming for the title. Strangely enough it seems Ebsfleet fans are behind us for this fixture. They hate both clubs but Stones marginally less than Dartford. More importantly for them, Ebbsfleet want to replace Dartford in the top 3.

I’ve never really had an animosity for any of the Kent sides, apart from The Gills. I know we aren’t liked by Dartford and Fleet and that’s fine. I would always hope the Kents sides would do well. Even Dover really.
It’s not usual, I get that. I do love to beat them though. Beating someone who is desperate to beat you in a great thing.

We know you’re a very good side. We know you’re favourites. We know regardless you’ll probably win the league and deservedly so. Don’t underestimate us though because we’ll give you a game no question and the reason we’ve changed a lot is a lot to do with recent injuries. Big game for us both and hopefully welling do something with dorking and help us both

Nearer 4.55pm I suspect Whatever, expect a nail-biter. I'm predicting the result can go one of three ways.

A win today and i reckon that will knock the stuffing out of a very good Dorking team. Hope Darts fans create some atmosphere, they are known for being a little quiet at home games.
i am sure our players will be really up for this one!!

There will be several goals today. We will score some of them. 2-2. Attendance lower than it could have been.

Winder if Mr Booty will be back today ? Mid-field trio of Boory/Corne/Phillips looks strongest bet. Luque and Deacon play wide and Jack Barham though the middle. Sweet ! Defence picks itself these days. Hadler, Hoyte, Fowler, Ellul, JBW. Hopefully we will be at full strength.

Just read on the Darts forum that tickets are available today from the club shop. No official confirmation.
