Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
On the road again as we face a Slough Town side who sit 4 points behind us in 8th place, albeit with a game in hand. They have just the 1 win and 2 draws from their last 5 games.
Sounds like we might have a record amount of players missing tomorrow as we are without Rutherford, Prior, McShane, Murphy, Carter, Moore, J.Taylor, Pybus, McManus, Camp and Milsom...
Predictions:
Slough Town 1-1 Dorking (Brooking)
924 att (140 away)
Don't even know where to start with a lineup prediction but I'll give it a go....
Foulkes
Brooking Francomb Craig B.Taylor
Gallagher Williams
Muitt Young Norville-Williams
Alexandrou
Subs: Wooster, Briggs, Randall, Bowerman, Rawlins
I don't see how we can play a back 3 with only 1 fit striker, unless we start Rawlins or if someone like Muitt starts up top which I don't see happening.
@jacksonfairweather yeah plus a weeks ago Mark called him out big time on DWTV. I think the writing is on the wall tbh, much better keepers out there at this level
Brooking's red at Weston was rescinded so hopefully it doesn't count as a 3rd red card for extended ban purposes

@dorking-eagle I would have thought that as well but he got a 2 match ban for the red at Tonbridge when I would have only expected that to be 1, so I am guessing the Weston red counted towards that.
Odd thing is, if this had been Joe Cook, Marc would be absolutely slating Brooking by now. But the patience he is showing him is markedly different to Cook last season!

@dorking-eagle yeah I though about this. Joe Cook would have been crucified in Dorking high street by now 🤣
To be fair to Josh, the first one was rescinded and the second was dissent after the final whistle so didn't leave us in a bad position in the game.
Joe Cook was getting yellow cards in the first 15-20 mins EVERY game and making defending for the rest of the game really tough.
