Tony Burman wants Dartford to stick together
Comments |
Tony Burman is calling on
everyone to stick together as the race for the Ryman League Premier
Division title moves into the home straight.
The Dartford boss understands the supporters’ anxiety after two
defeats in three days against Tooting last Saturday and Boreham
Wood on Tuesday night, but is urging them not to get on their own
players’ backs.
He said: "We all want the best for
the club, like everybody does, and I know it is a little bit
frustrating, but I would rather they take it out on opposing
teams."
Dartford travel to Horsham on
Thursday and then host Maidstone for the second time in a
fortnight, after winning 1-0 earlier this month.
"The title is still ours to lose,
and we are getting close but not close enough," said Burman. "We
are a big scalp for other teams because of what we have done this
season and where we are in the table, and I accept that.
"It’s tough as well because we are
playing teams who are raising their games and trying to upset us. I
just hope they are putting in the same amount of effort and
work-rate against other teams.
"I don’t enjoy losing, but the
pressure has been on us since day one of the season. One or two
players might be getting a little bit anxious, but we have got to
stay focused. We cannot start looking over our shoulders, and must
concentrate on what we do."
