Dartford boss Tony Burman was left disappointed after they lost at Hampton in Blue Square Bet South on Tuesday.

Paul Goodacre was sent-off in the first 10 minutes after a tangle with a Hampton forward. The linesman felt the Darts player had committed a professional foul and that annoyed Burman (pictured).

He said: "Hampton is a difficult place to go but going down to 10 men early made it more difficult for us. The sending-off decision could have gone either way.

"It was harsh as there was a clash of legs and there was no actual tackle. The linesman gave it but he can’t have seen it clearly from his angle. The referee was better positioned and he didn’t give it.

"I can’t fault the players, though, for their effort. The first half was decent and we just tired a bit in the second half. We gave away a corner and that was deflected in."

Dean Wells scored the winner for Hampton, as his header from a corner went in off Danny Harris.

Bromley won 4-2 at Boreham Wood in the same division.

The visitors raced into a 4-1 half-time lead thanks to Jerome Sobers, Tony Finn, Nic McDonnell and Ryan Dolby.
