Agree with most of the above, and sad to say, Henry, Ansah was barely involved tonight....
The Darts fought their way back into the game in the 2nd half following loads of possession by our lads with little/no end product. Don't recall their 'keeper being tested too often...now why does that sound familiar ?
Some neat footwork from the boys in red but as our main man on the FF stated, Dartford's back four were immense and dealt superbly with our forays forward .
In addition to failing to retain the KSC tonight, there was another disappointing outcome from our visit to Arctic Park.
The Fanackapans have now been banned from watching ALL U21 games in future.
At our 1st match this year at The Valley, the lads lost their unbeaten record of 358 games and now tonight, given a second chance to prove we are NOT jonahs ......doh !
This result a good reminder why you cannot build a league one team around the under21`s and expect to compete. A first team needs experienced quality professional players to stand a just of making a show in league 1. So I hope people stop calling for the youngsters to be given a go in league 1, that goes for you too Roland.
Well done Dartford anyway, nice for them to get a bit of silverware
This sort of game is all part of the learning curve for U21 players. Playing against battle hardened semi pros, who will see them as a scalp, is a different challenge to playing against rival academy players

Nice to see we still won't be able to defend corners for years to come.

It won't happen again, promise.
Anyway enough of this doom and gloom whose going to Leeds Saturday, I'll be there
Sounds like he had a stinker but has been part of the u21 success this year.
