When will Tom Bonners red card take affect? Will he be eligible for the game against us?
As far as i'm aware suspensions come into effect seven days later so both of the players sent off will be ok to play.

So if and it’s a big IF we win and the other 2 either draw or lose we will be crowned champions on Monday! Will there be the trophy hidden away somewhere in the back ground just incase? Or do you only get presented the trophy once the title is confirmed however if it isn’t decided Monday it would need to be in 3 places next Saturday for whichever of the 3 of us are lucky enough to win the title…

We are now effectively a team that has finished fourth in the league and we go in to the play-off semi tomorrow (away) and if victorious the play-off final at home against a team that finished lower than us. If we win both matches, we are promoted as champions. If we do not win both matches, we get a second chance in the real play-off tournament at the end of the year, only starting with home advantage in the first match. The big difference is that Cray and Carshalton are playing for pride, not for promotion. Hopefully our commitment will be all the more intense in view of the possible prize.
Our team has shown great improvement since the early part of the season. I hope that they can finish the job in the next two matches and enjoy being cowned worthy champions of what has proved to be a very competitive league.

I thought that very point last night but couldn’t put it so cleverly into words. TWO chances. I don’t like the second one.

Whatever happens in the next week the players and staff have given absolutely everything and I for one am so proud of them. There has been an emotional disconnect the last couple of seasons but the guys have put that to bed in style and put a smile on our faces. Lets give our all and do what ever we can to push them over the line.

Come on you Darts. Let's get the win. Would be nice if it is comfortable but ultimately 3 points at the final whistle is all that matters. Let's get behind the team and cheer them on to victory

Agree mate. These players give everything every game. Even in the last game throwing their bodies in the way of everything and going until the end. Installed from the management team and carried out by the players.

I drove past the ground on the A20 on Monday expecting to see some kind of fairly big stand and there was nothing.
It almost looked more like a Kent league ground from the road.
had a party in there a few months back. although was dark it does look like a kent league clubs ground..been there few times over the years for family parties etc...as all me dads side family all live literally across the road

The Dutch House pub closed in 2016. The building is now partly a cafe and partly a builders merchants. It would take around 55 minutes to walk to the ground from here.

It’s this sort of advice which caused one of our supporters to pitch up at the wrong Cray back on the first day of the season!

Contrary to what i posted earlier I'm now being told if you get a red card your suspended for the next game so maybe the 2 Cray players will be missng today?? We'll find out soon enough but as long as our lads turn up with the same attitude as normal I'll be happy.
