DAFC have somehow made the play offs, they had to win today at Hayes and Yeading and Havant had to not win at relegated Tonbridge and it all fell into place with us getting a late penalty to win 2-1 , Havant had 2 goals disallowed and a penalty saved in a 0-0 draw, the gods were certainly with us today.
Wednesday we entertain Sutton United at home then the second leg away on Saturday, Sutton who are a full time club will start favourites but perhaps just perhaps our name is on it this year?

Lets hope so, I know home performances have been disappointing but good luck.

Well done Dover. I have seen them a few times this season. It is quite an achievement after a very mixed season. COYW.

Yes it's great news and I am looking forward to Wednesday and Saturdays games against Sutton. Vic I thought you had forgotten where Crabble Football Ground was,
COYW we can do it.

Highlights for those interested (the fans forum doesn't seem to be working).

At the home ground of the team that finished highest.

Dover cannot be at home in the final, so IF we get there it will be at Bromley or Gravesend.

finished all square at the theatre of dreams tonight and the full timers of Sutton will think they have done the job.
from what I read on here our heroes are at their best on the counter attack away from home.
fingers and toes crossed.

After conceding possibly the fastest goal ever seen at Crabble - maybe less than 30 seconds - most Dover fans seemed content with a draw that leaves us with probably a 50-50 chance at Sutton, on paper.
Ebbsfleet won the other semi first leg 4-0, so we will almost certainly play there if we win on Saturday.

Well done to Dover in keeping trust in themselves to make the playoffs when most of us one being myself said "They would not"

best of luck, didn't Sutton knock cup holders Coventry out of the cup many years ago?

no goals at half time, I sense a late winner in this one.
I remember that Coventry/spurs cup final cracking made all the better by living in a totts supporting area at the time.
