Manager Tony Burman says Dartford fans have a big role to play

Manager Tony Burman says Dartford supporters have a big part to play in continuing their side’s surge towards the Ryman League Premier Division title.

After returning to form with wins on the road at Canvey and Cray Wanderers, Dartford are in a commanding position, lying 11 points clear of second-placed Hastings United with four games in hand.

Tuesday’s home clash with Boreham Wood was postponed due to a frozen pitch, so the Darts will look to end a stuttering run at Princes Park against Margate on Saturday.

Burman said: "We have nothing to fear from Margate but we will show them respect. Hopefully, we can go out there and do our own thing and get a result – but we will have to be focused.

"The supporters have a big part to play, we need them to get behind the side when teams are making it difficult for us."

Lee Burns starts a three-match ban on Saturday while Lee Noble sits out one match, meaning Adam Burchell and Joao Carlos could feature.

Burman hopes to have long-term absentee Elliot Bradbrook back within a fortnight but Allan Tait faces three weeks out with a calf strain and Jay May needs a scan on a swollen knee. Billy Burgess (ankle), though, could return.
