It's been heavy going tonight on the legs.

FT 0-0

[Lars Resort]

Disappointing but the unbeaten run continues.

[PeteSamson]

Maybe the record home run wasn't beaten tonight, but at least the squad have equalled a record run of consecutive wins in the club history, so no mean feat and worthy of congratulations and get a place in the club records. Our run had to end at some point, and the unbeaten run continues. A draw no surprise between the two form teams in the league. Will await the comments from the match.

We also had a bigger crowd than Dulwich Hamlet tonight, so don't know where their missing 2000+ were tonight?

Important to take positives and there are many.
Clean sheet is always good.
If you can’t win don’t lose.
Shows how far we’ve come when we’re disappointed with a draw.
Well done the lads, we keep going.

[Ken Shabby]

Willing them on from Spain, but this was a big ask. Better a draw than a loss, and we'll meet worse teams on the way in. The unbeaten run continues.

[Bkev180]

A hard game they wanted to play the passing game which not many teams attempt against us callum never stops running imo players looked leggy tired tonight but positives still unbeaten clean sheet onto sat at Hendon
UP THE DARTS

[MickW]

Disappointed that we couldn't get the win which would have been the record, but, as said by others, at least we didn't lose.
MoM has to come from the defence I think and my vote goes to Jacob for several key interventions.
Not many teams are going to deny us a win whilst we are in this form so hats off to Chichester for a job well done by their defenders.

The boys looked tired tonight ,so a point against another in form team with fresher legs is not a bad thing . Chichesters defence was a hard nut to crack for the Darts tonight ; a well organised back four with a decent keeper so it was never going to be easy . Both teams had their chances and my MOTM Jacob pulled off another brilliant save with ten minutes to go to keep us in it , and we could of snatched it in injury time but for the post , so a fair result in the end , and our undefeated stretch goes on and we remain top of the league , so all in all not a bad point . Attendance wasn’t to bad , just under a thousand considering all the football on tv tonight .

All things considered this was a good hard earned point and it could have been three.

First of all Chichester looked a decent well organised side who are bang in form just like us so probably the worst time to play them, especially after we had a tough game Saturday against another in form side.
It also looked clear to me their game plan was to sit back and not give anything away and try to get something on the counter attack, so they will probably be very happy with a "classic" away performance.

First half was very cagey but we edged it on possession although hardly any chances at either end.
Second half i thought we started well and were the better side creating three or four decent opportunities, however they had a few moments as well and missed an absolute sitter.
Then late on we had a good attack and Pinder struck the post after the keeper got the faintest of touches (he actually confirmed this at the end) so on another day we could have nicked the result.

Our players give 100% every game and i honestly believe if Chichester had played Saturday as well it may well have been a different outcome tonight.

Not disappointed with the result or performance though and our fantastic unbeaten record continues, the lads now need a good rest and to come out all guns blazing on Saturday.

Another decent attendance especially for a bloody cold Tuesday evening.

MOTM - Plenty of contenders as everyone gave their all but just gave it to Bullas, a wise head on young shoulders.

Tough game tonight against another in-form team. I was a little surprised that Chichester appeared to settle for the draw quite early in the second half considering that they are eight points below the play-off cut. They took a long time over goal kicks and throws and spent a lot of time progressing no further than the half-way line. They play the fifth place team, Cray Valley next. Were they to lose that, they would have a mountain to climb to claim a play-off spot. That will probably please the current play-off hopefuls.

Dartford made more good goal-scoring chances throughout the game and were unlucky when the keeper got the faintest of touches to a late strike that went out of play off the near post. This possibly evened up the luck from when Chichester missed a wide open goal from ten yards in the first half. It will be interesting to see the video to see if the ball bounced badly before being struck, but I would have fancied my chances of hitting the net from there.

The draw was probably a fair result at the end. As mentioned by somebody previously, there were some tired legs on the pitch by the end of the match.

It was great to see such a good crowd on a cold Tuesday evening.

Well done Darts. Twelve to play and our destiney remains in our own hands. Keep up the hard work.

[Babylon]

Yes ,Chichester. are a decent side and IMHO.
They. might do us a few favours and take points off of our promotion rivals.
A fair result in the end,
We move on to Saturday and hopefully 3 points.

[DA Mikey]

Ade will have to concede that Lady Luck has finally turned her eye to us after the open goals missed by Hashtag (ok, it wouldn’t have affected the result) and Chichester.
Bit like Saturday, we struggled to bring the tempo up and play it around like we know we can, but Chichester were sterner opposition and it was good to see resolute defending frequently break down their attacks.
Still think that staying injury free will have the biggest impact on our final standing.

Massive congratulations DFC on 20 games unbeaten - a fantastic achievement.

[Tony H]

Absolutely nothing to be disappointed with tonight. A very good, well-earned point against another form team. I actually thought we looked the fitter, fresher team of the two in the second half imho.

Important to keep the points board turning in our favour and see where that leaves us at the end of the season.

Mom a difficult choice but for me Jacob - another clean sheet.
