Good Darts! Tony Is On Top Again After Awesome April

4 May 2018 By Sam Elliott

You would have to have a heart of stone not to feel sympathy for Dartford and their manager Tony Burman.

In any other season - and if one kick had fallen differently last weekend - the club’s players would still be nursing hangovers, and not preparing for the play-offs.

Dartford are not only the form side in the National League South, but the entire country.

Missing out on the title on goal difference because of Havant’s late, late winner at home to Concord Rangers, they had just won their ninth match in a row.

He may not be a champion, but Burman is our Manager of the Month.

They pushed Havant until the final seconds of the final day thanks to April wins over Weston, Gloucester City, Eastbourne, East Thurrock, Bath City and Bognor Regis.

Somehow it wasn’t enough - now he is hoping to avoid any curse the awards bring and take his club back into the National League.
