Really gutted to lose Eddie and Olly, but seems both decsiisons were made last season's Think it shows how much Pennock ruined the dressing room confidence in the club,

Good we got Sam Odaudu to sign for this season, just waiting on the other Sam to decide but not holding out much hope there really,

The amount goals we have lost in close season that would have come from Eddie Olly Callum Jones and Samir needs replacing we have got Dan Smith but feel we need a statement signing or signings soon to intice people to but them season tickets.

I am surprised at the moment no news on new clubs for Denzil or Samir, As Olly and Eddie seem to ahve clubs lined up before annoucing thier departure.

Agreed, he speaks very well and confidently and leads to optimism for the season ahead. Let's hope we do hear about those near forward signings this week.

Also a positive interview with Dan Smith that I came across on the club website.

What a marvellous interview from Ben. It was all worth listening to and no pointless sentences and repeating himself like the previous incumbent.
Looking forward to to hearing news on the forward signings

I have to agree Rambo. It's a real breath of fresh air listening to a Dartford manager who is clear and concise as to what his objectives are, and not just stating the b****** obvious and repeating themselves 😀

I saw this on the Margate site he said he has been offered an opportunity closer to home with a club so I was wondering if it’s the Darts.

‘Closer to his home.’ Where does he live? (I couldn’t open the Kent on Line page. It’s shit and useless.)

Have to pretend to be a Gillingham fan to read sport via KOL nowadays. Absolute wallets.

We need at least two forwards and preferably able to play wide and centre
I could only think of Kai Brown as a real target but he is now taken but I am sure Ben is working on 4/5 possibles so we await either interest to see who is signed soon

Well pleased with securing Odaudu for another season. Didn’t realise he’d racked up nine seasons with us. Along with Whitefield & Tennant, that’s known class at the back.

Shame the club couldn’t announce Sam OKoye leaving before Farnborough advertising the signing.

Shame about Sam - one of my favourites last season. Good luck to him.
