That was good, tenner well spent. I thought we'd win but not like that. CBT looked really good for the first half, if he can do that in the League I will revise my opinion of him. Positives and negatives from most of the players tonight, to be expected these are mainly L1 reserves, but I think a few will be giving Adkins a headache from today. Special mention for Elliott Lee, stood out a mile as a quality player. Really pleased Burstow got his goal too. Yes Crawley were terrible, but they kept trying to play and it wasn't as if all we had to do was shoot. I seem to remember their goalie making a couple of very good saves. Can now say I've seen us score 6 which I hadn't before.
Nigel said in an early interview that he would probably only be here for a part of the Journey. Hopefully two years time because that means we will be in the Championship.
Watched on the live stream,as terrified of getting back to medway on A2,although quite a meaningless game,probably the best £10.00 I have spent in terms of entertainment.Crawley are quoted as being poor,but the possession and goal attempts were about even,although we looked dangerous every attack we had.Outstanding for me,Blackett-Taylor who if he carries on like this will get a longer deal,Sean Clare who was running the show until he departed,and Davison who improves every time he plays.Really enjoy watching our young lads,will definately get along to Dartford for their home games.
It has already been mentioned by Fanny but I was suprised at how mobile and quick Davison looked. Not sure if that's because the Crawley midfield/defence just gave him to much time or has been a genuine improvement on his part - but he certainly looked far more dynamic then I've seen him in the past.
Does this bloke do this type of interview quite regularly?
I’m sure I’ve seen him do the “I don’t want to put my name to it” and “the supporters were our best player” (while looking like he’s a mixture of furious and demoralised) thing before.
Surely there comes a point when you have to concede that this isn’t motivating your players to perform for you and maybe you’re part of the problem? Surely you need to take some responsibility and change your approach at some point?

I do hope they continue to lose and carry on with him as their manager. He'll end up knocking the interviewer out. "What ya mean you think that was a hard working performance?!"

They subbed on two more weekend starters (Frost & Hessenthaler) by half time to make seven.
Only stage I've not been impressed when I've seen him was when he let that Dartford goal in at his near post.

When in two weeks time or two years time ?

Watching the replay I think the dubious goals panel could have given the Oggy either way.
Not sure who she is though
He's hilarious.
