Dartford manager Alan Dowson is looking forward to having a selection headache sooner rather than later. His injury-hit squad have limped through the opening two months of the campaign and were also knocked out of the FA Cup by neighbours Welling.
But the likes of Tommy Block, Max Statham and Sam Odaudu could all feature in their National League South trip to Chippenham this Saturday. “I’m dying for a selection headache, it’s the one thing I haven’t had so far all season,” said Dowson. “That’s exactly what we need.
The team has picked itself so far so if I can get a headache now I’ll be delighted. “The injury list has been non-stop and everyone can see that.
But the two games against Gillingham B and then in the London Cup on Saturday were good for us. “It’s been handy. It’s been the right time to have a break from league football but we’re really looking forward to getting back into it now. “Dartford’s record at Chippenham isn’t very good recently.
