A marvellous display of finishing was the highlight of an impressive Dartford performance at Princes Park on Tuesday night in what is likely to be a dress rehearsal for the Blue Square Bet play-offs, in six weeks time.

Darts went ahead with two goals in three minutes, courtesy of Lee Noble and a penalty from Adam Green. Noble hit a post and Erskine's follow-up was ruled out for offside, before Harry Beautyman headed in Sutton's opener just before the half-hour.

Danny Harris made it 3-1 two minutes after the break, heading in Noble's cross, before curling another effort just wide.

Defender Luke Wilkinson headed in the fourth from Green's free-kick -- his second goal in two games - 21 minutes from time. Two more goals in the space of three minutes late on enabled Dartford to finish with a flourish.

Nothing seemed on for skipper Elliot Bradbrook as he picked up the ball on the edge of the box, before curling a fine left shot into the far corner, while Erskine's (pictured) close-range finish was a deserved reward for his hard work.
