Let's have your predictions for Saturday - I'm not being too fooled by Working's poor form though, and think there might be a reaction to the defeat at Weston last night...Also, this is of course pending injury news;

Dorking (1)2 Woking (0)1 

2,480 (679 from Surrey's other club)

Tough one to predict this and for some reason I have a bad feeling about it. Feels like the kind of game that Woking could get themselves geared up for after recent bad form.

Dorking 1-1 Woking (McShane)

2,532 att.

Not going to predict a lineup until we know more news on fitness as doubts over Prior/Ottaway/Briggs. I imagine that Carter, Blair and Pybus will miss out though. At least Rutherford and Muitt will be back.

All the time the squad looks like an episode of Casualty I'll be conservative in my predictions!

Wanderers 1 Woking 1

Goal by Rutherford

Att - 2999

I'm going to say 3-2 to Dorking. Rutherford with a brace and Francomb with one. I think the lineup will be hard to guess until we get an injury update, and lots of players are still not match fit yet. Hoping that we can keep things moving after last week's performance.

I have a strangely positive feeling about Saturday, even though Woking battered us at their place. 

A repeat of last week’s form should be good enough- am going for a 3-1 home win.

Bottom of the form table, lost their last 5 league games, out the FA cup to Ramsgate and the FA trophy to Weston super mare so now should be an ideal time to play them.

2-1 Dorking

@ritch Need to get at them from the off I think. Low in confidence, get an early goal or two and they could collapse...

That said, football is never that simple.

@adeb agreed. An early goal like Maidenhead and we could coast to victory. They must be pretty short of confidence,so press them from the off

Interesting that in Marc's weekly update he hoped that Woking would bring up to 1000 including some pay on the day's. Thought it was all ticket, but presumably if he's expecting 1800 DW fans then there's plenty of room if people turn up and want to pay cash on the gate?

That looks a decent team @calvertskans. I would go for Bobby Joe on the left too but I suspect Marc will opt for Francomb with Fuller at RB.  Where does Carter play if he starts with him? Would be hard to drop Niall after last week but that may be a better bet than leaving out Dan G.  Woking a very physical side. Or were at least.

@baggy I'd be very surprised if Carter starts - I imagine he comes on late for McShane or one of the centre mids.

His first two games will be against two of his former clubs!

@dorking-eagle Yes probably give them the entire away end - will give them a better view too.

Just had a look at a Woking forum, fair to say they’re not confident…
