Unbeaten start delights Dartford boss Tony Burman
08:00, 01 September 2011
Dartford boss Tony Burman admits his side is up there to be shot at, as they seek to consolidate their unbeaten start to the Blue Square Bet South season.
Burman (pictured) was thrilled as Darts made it four wins from six games with a 3-1 victory over Bromley on Monday.
They visit Basingstoke this Saturday, with the chance to overhaul leaders Welling.
"I am really pleased," said Burman. "To come through the six games playing as we have, without losing, and to have all the players avoid injury and suspension is a great start for us.
"We had a target to get into double figures over the opening two weeks, and we’ve done that.
"There are no more targets for the time being, the games are spread out a bit more now.
"Basingstoke have signed a lot of players and I’m sure it will be difficult. They’ll be looking to beat the teams at the top of the table and we’re up there.
"But if we play like we have done, then we can win. We have proved at Chelmsford and Dover that we can be tough away from home."
