Dartford manager Tony Burman insists his side are still in the
Blue Square Bet South title race despite losing at home to leaders
Woking on Tuesday night.
The 3-2 defeat leaves the Darts 15 points off the pace and
although they have two games in hands on Woking, Burman’s side have
seen their championship odds lengthen significantly in recent
weeks.
Having targeted a play-off charge in pre-season, the Dartford
boss (pictured) admits it will be difficult to secure
automatic promotion by catching the Cards but he knows there is
enough time for the tables to turn.
He said: "You never say never until it’s mathematically
impossible. I can’t believe some people are saying it’s over in
December.
"Tuesday’s game doesn’t mean we’re going to lose the league or
that Woking are going to win the league. Lots of things happen
every week and every month and we’ll fight as much as we can. We’ve
got to try to catch Welling (in second) and Woking but it’s going
to be tough."
Do you think the Darts can still challenge for the
title? Comment below.
