Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
On the road again as head to the quagmire of Park View Road to face Welling United. The Wings currently sit in 20th position just 2 points above the relegation zone with 4 points from their last 5 games.
Marc's post match on Tuesday suggested that Briggs is likely to miss the game but he is potentially the only injury in the squad currently.
Predictions
Welling United 1-4 Dorking (Carter, Rutherford, Prior, Norville-Williams)
951 att.
Foulkes
Camp Craig Milsom
Muitt J.Taylor Williams Norville-Williams
Carter
Rutherford Prior
Subs: Brooking, Gallagher, McManus, Young, Murphy
Wouldn't surprise me if Brooking starts instead of Camp for this one. Doubt we rest Prior or Rutherford with a week off coming up.
Looks like we're in for a real treat David!
Sounds like it will be similar to Hornchurch - a real battle with lots of long balls. Makes sense to start with Alfie to run the channels and then get Murphy on for second half, like Tuesday. Am going 0-2 (Carter, Prior).
Bobby-Joe Taylor gone on loan to Walton & Hersham. Bit of a surprise considering we are a little bit short of wide players at the moment.
Marc also mentioned that Luke Moore will be in the squad tomorrow.
@calvertskans Been a long while without Luke Moore, hasn't it? Must be close to a year? Good player, underrated.
@adeb Last played away at Torquay at the beginning of the season where he picked up the injury.
Fancy us again today , 0-2.
Hopefully Worthing will drop points at Slough today
Ground a lot tidier than last time there. Not a pretty game, but another huge 3pts, and with Worthing losing the table looks great!
Just got to keep winning, no foot off the pedal now!

Another very solid performance on a difficult pitch and, like v Hornchurch, we defended the lead well. Can’t think of a shot in second half from either team. Definitely not pretty. Apart from Josh Taylor’s goal, which was genius.
We seem to be getting the rub of the green at the moment in away we didn’t in the early part of the season. Welling hit the bar and blazed over from close range, last minute winner on Tuesday, injury situation pretty good and other teams are finding banana skins. Need to keep playing well and hopefully the results will continue to go our way.
Some goal by Josh,fantastic bit of skill and finish. Wasn’t there but looked like great support again from the few vids I’ve seen.
Shame there won’t be a BOA vid of the game ☹️
Terrible game of football and probably the coldest I've been at a match for some time but delighted that we got over the line and got 3 points in difficult conditions. Other than a 5 minute spell in the first half where they hit that bar from range and blazed one miles over from close range, I don't think they had another chance in the match.
Thought we missed Rutherford quite a lot and probably Briggs as well so hopefully they are both back next weekend. We will probably need to play much better than we have the last two games to beat Farnbrough next time out.
