Tony Burman delighted at day to remember for Dartford
Comments |
Dartford boss Tony Burman was a
happy man after lifting the Ryman League Premier Division trophy in
front of more than 2,000 fans at Princes Park on Saturday.
The Darts were presented with the trophy by Ryman League
chairman Alan Turvey after Saturday’s 2-2 draw with Aveley.
Burman, who mixes his role as
Dartford manager and director with owning a transport company, felt
the effort was all worthwhile after getting his hands on the
silverware.
He said: "It’s been hard work and
there has been a lot of effort put in.
"Sometimes you wonder how you find
the time to be involved but you do and when you get moments like
that, it makes you realise what it’s all about.
"You don’t forget days like that. A
couple of years ago we won the Division 1 North title and the
players then had a day that they wouldn’t forget. That will be the
same for everyone on Saturday.
"It’s what we all aim for and the
reception the players got from the crowd was fantastic. It was nice
to get the trophy in front of such a big crowd."
Goals from Lee Burns, Lee Noble,
Carl Rook and James White led the Darts to a 4-0 win at Waltham
Abbey last Thursday before Billy Burgess and Rob Haworth netted
against Aveley. Noble also netted in the 1-1 draw at Wealdstone on
Tuesday.
Darts finish their campaign at
Hendon tonight (Thursday) and Bognor on Saturday.
"We’re ready for a break – I’m not
going to lie," said Burman "We just want to try and get over the 90
points mark now."
