I think the problem for Cumbers other than match fitness and sharpness is that he's not a back to goal lone striker. He'd be better as the second of two forwards or in our system wide right. In the absence of Pires who could attempt the role or someone new perhaps Guthrie could have a go in the middle even though he had some joy out wide in the Dartford game.

Am concerned how poor going forward and uncreative we've become in the last two home games. Our system is more cautious these days maybe this is necessary at this level but not against all opponents surely. More support for the lone forward required from out wide and midfield. Absentees haven't helped particularly attacking play from full back.

Important opportunity tomorrow night and no room for complacency especially if without Roscoe.

 Blimey....I think we agree on something!

We were wondering why Guthrie wasn't given at least a try down the middle with Cumbers wide during the second half. Also KHM might have got fifteen minutes to have a go on the wing with Kurtis down the middle.

Earlier this season when all our players were fit I felt we were one wide player (left or right) away from being a very decent team at this level.

The most one sided referee performance seen in a long time only enhanced when he blew the whistle for full time when it was our corner with 30seconds left.

 There were 8 seconds left if you want to be precise. I was sitting next to a Dartford reporter with a stopwatch. The ref probably blew up realising that he should have given Welling a free kick for your bloke going through Jamie Day from behind as he cleared the ball. Neither manager thought the referee was one sided but neither thought he gave everything right.

 As a dfc fan we are pleased were not as bad as we have been that's all. We know we are a poor side. We are pleased our dismally run of ten losses in a row is over no one is celebrating anything. I like most have no doubt we will go down and have done for a short while. I am not one of those fans who want to see the other relegated as I enjoy the games. All you will have next year is bromley. As for dartford fans complaining was because Mr. Day spent the entire game shouting and moaning at the referee and his dive in the 2nd half annoyed a few. When he went down in front of us though he probably was hurt it was the accumulation of before that the darts gave him stick. The most one sided referee performance seen in a long time only enhanced when he blew the whistle for full time when it was our corner with 30seconds left. Your player blomqist (I appreciate that is wrong spelling) shouting at dfc fans `come on then, come over here, come on then` while giving it the come on gestures with his hands. Very brave considering no one was going on the pitch and getting nicked but he could of gone to the fans and chose not to yet give it the come on. All this is the passion of derby football passion from both sets, never got out of hand, your lot give our players stick too. No celebrations, we know we're ****, we know we're going down but we won't give in.. yet.

 Doug Bergqvist.

Hahahahaha - he gets my vote for Player of the Year for that!!

But you are right - entering the field of play is a definite no no and shouldn't be tolerated under any circumstances

That's quality from Bergqvist! Sounds like his English is very good
