I remember from Tony Burman onwards. I recognise some of the other names but to young to have seen them play.

Some very good players mentioned there  xbow xbow.

I remember watching all of these play except Roy Butler (he must have stopped playing just before I started following the Darts around the age of 6-7), but I can remember my late Dad banging on about him, so RB was obviously still fresh in his memory. Of the older players, my favourites have got to be Huckstepp and Henderson.

I think them stats show what a player TB was, I can not seem to remember who signed TB for the Darts

Going from memory on Managers, The manager at my first Dartford match was Roy Dwight but I pretty sure it was not him, I also remember John Boyle, John Biddle and John Steel, but who ever it was thanks because I am sure without TB we would not be where we are now.

Also surprised John Mitchell was not on the list he was my favorite when I first started going but then again dont think he scored that many

I believe it was Graham Carr that signed TB - but stand to be corrected.

I think the 33 goals by Gary Julians in 1980/81 (all competitions) is worth a mention - before Tony went on his imoressive run.

Interesting stats kentish man. i think you'll find  TBs record is not correct though, as he played as player manager in 93/94 netting a few more as well i recall.

The stats are not showing a total career at DFC but goals and apps in the seasons he and others were leading scorers.
