Oh, that's just great. If it is a straight red he could miss the Bromley and Dover games and an important FA Cup tie - or is it two FA Cup ties and the Dover match.

Either way, there is nothing more stupid than arguing, complaining to officials and then getting sent off after a game. The referee is hardly going to re-start the game is he. Cardinal sin. Lets hope Daisy gives them a rocket ... but overal still top after a great start, dont dwell on today, lets move on and win the next game.
Two yellows so one game ban at Bromley. Stupid ban.
We need to learn how to play against those tactics. On the two occasions we played football in the first half we created golden opportunities, Pugh treading on the ball and Cumbers having his shot saved. But we looked petrified every time they launched it forward.
Yet again they played the officials far better than us, charging the ref and feigning injury when they'd fouled us.
All that said, big hand to their keeper, he took the banter with good humour and shook hands after the game. Top bloke.

faz is not a full back teams are starting to suss this out
That's funny there's me thinking he's been one of our players of the season so far.
Agree with Spitey. Faz my early contender for player of the year. Anyway onwards and upwards as the saying goes put yesterday behind us and bring on the Maidenaunts.
LOL, another dartford fan almost gets a pop in at welling unnoticed on here. Just ignore those who only post negative posts and have a very low post count. USUALLY Dartford Fans.
Russ is correct they did a job on us that pressured our defenders and kept them from attacking. We have to learn to play against a packed midfield and lots of long balls, that said their goals were all errors by us so if we can stop those or limit those we should still be able to beat teams like Dorch.
As for the nightmare journey. Dorch to London was fine back in London at 815pm, then the fun started, waterloo entrance blocked so long way to station missed train by 2 mins, 30 mins wait then just before train in... Trains all at standstill due to fire at London Bridge station, 30 mins wait terrible tannoy so no one had a clue what was happening, then eventually got train over an hour after getting to waterloo and then the driver said theres a jumper on the track who leapt off the platform to the track so will proceed with caution (he poodled along the line all the way and took a lot longer)
Finally got home and had daniel powters song on loop for about an hour while calmed down.

We weren't very good and Dorchester deserved the points. Lets hope we bounce back against another physical outfit who play in the same colours next week. They will target Faz again if they have done their homework. When is Sambrook fit? Faz needs to be playing in a more attacking role. He's a good player wasted at the back.
And please can Jamie Day play as well. He's the best midfielder we have.
The more you see the pen the more you wonder how the ref slept last night, I knew at the ground it wasnt a pen and the highlights only cofirm what I saw. The other two goals were woefully below the high standards we have set in the previous games. I think we will learn from this setback and come back stronger for it.

Faz has been one of the players of the season so far and Day, fine player that he is, hasn't been needed in the starting eleven during the good run. Who would you leave out for his and Sambrook's return?
I have to agree with Winkleman's comments that Sambrook and Day if fit should return to the side. Faz has done extremely well as a stand in right back but with Sambrook back in the side he could return to his most influential position as an attacking midfielder. As far as Daisy is concerned he remains the best midfielder at the club and should play as many games as he can.
I imagine that as he was on the bench yesterday he was fit to play and I was disappointed that he did not come on at half time yesterday as our main problem appeared to be that we were being outfought and at times outnumbered in midfield and I felt he could have changed this.
As far as who to leave out to accommodate Sambrook and Day is concerned, that is not an easy one as everybody has done well in our winning run. However we have conceded a lot of goals and things do need tightening up if we are to be serious title contenders. Ben has partly solved the problem of who to leave out as he will now be suspended so Parky will drop back to central defence. However I don't think the suspension comes into effect until the Boreham Wood game so personally I would have Healy and Cumbers on the bench for the Maidenhead game. No doubt others will disagree.
Well yesterday I would have taken off Healy and Pires for Attwood and Johnson (although would have preferred Day but I still dont think he is fit.......) and I would have done it at half time but hey...what do i know
I also agree that as well as Faz has done he is NOT a RB and we could do with him on the RM
Loose one game and faz is not ideal right back Jamie should come back in. Hold up 6 unbeaten that includes Woking Havant Eastbourne. Faz i feel is the best right back we have from what i have seen in last 8 games. Winds me up loose a game and people become critical .
I think we are nearly there, just a bit of tinkering with the system. Cant see Jamie scrapping it and dropping players all over the place. He doesnt seem that type of manager.
Faz has been really good at right back, just under hit a header and conceded a soft penalty.
Maybe one change on Saturday, bringing the gaffer back and putting the skipper in the back 4?
