Tony Burman happy with progress of Dartford squad

Dartford boss Tony Burman has
played down suggestions he may be forced to panic in the transfer
market.
Burman added Chelmsford midfielder Ollie Berquez to his squad on
Tuesday night.
Having already added defenders Paul
Goodacre and Tom Champion, Burman says he will not rush to replace
the six players that have left since the end of last season.
Burman said: "I’m actively talking
to a number of players. We have got a squad of 16 and are looking
to add two or three and then with those we’ve invited to
pre-season, we’ll be up to the 20-mark.
"It is laughable what people are
saying. As far as I’m concerned, I signed Carl Rook and Michael
Shinn last season as I was looking forward to this season.
"For all those people who are going
on about us only making a few signings, well I count it as five
now. They were signed for this season’s progress.
"The average age of the squad is
down to 25 and I’m pleased with the way things have gone so
far.
Burman is braced for the departure
of Jamie Coyle and John Beales, who are set to snub the offer of
joining the Darts for pre-season training, in favour of a move to
Blue Square South rivals Bromley to link up again with striker Rob
Haworth, who is expected to move to Hayes Lane.
