Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
Tough one this week as Alty are in great form off the back of a 6-1 home win v Solihull last week. The 4-1 defeat there last season maybe a bit flattering for them though as their keeper got MoM that day.
Predictions:
Altrincham 3-1 Dorking (Moore)
2,142 att.
Tough lineup to predict with uncertainty around Prior, Fuller and Pybus. I imagine Carter, Briggs and Blair continue to miss out but wouldn't surprise me to see Bowerman and Bobby-Joe back in the mix. I reckon Marc will opt for Ottaway over Alfie from the start after last weekend.

Still think it must be in doubt tho - forecast is -5 overnight, then only gets up to around 1 or 2 in the day....
I understand that they have arranged a pitch inspection at mid-day (Friday). I will be very surprised if the game gets a go-ahead with another -4C forecast tonight in Cheshire.
It's sort of a game where we could nick a draw or a win, but my head is saying a 4-0 defeat.
Very surprised that Altrincham haven't provided any update as of yet...
I'll have a Guinness
Not a bad result, given the injuries
