Ebsfleet finished above us. They beat Chippenham something we haven’t done in 3 games with them so unfortunately Ebsfleet deserve to be in the final. I’d be shocked if Dorking don’t batter them though.

Dorking and Ebbsfleet gone to extra time

Ebbsfleet scoring what looked to be a winner in the 93rd, originally 6 minutes added on however their fans decided to throw a flare on the pitch. Dorking then equalised in the 100th minute.

Dorking just scored early on in extra time.

That idiot who chucked the flare on the pitch may have cost them but know doubt they will blame the ref.

They are blaming everyone they can and complaining about the police. What a horrible horrible way to lose. I still can’t stop laughing at the tin pot club

No doubt Fleet were the better side for the first 90 minutes. Robbed. :shock:

I can't imagine how much that hurt. They still had the chance to win though on extra time so perhaps a little less moaning about the extra couple of minutes added in fairness due to their own fans celebrations.
Proper that the top two went up.Spare a thought for Brackley in the north who were 22 points ahead of York. This is not what leagues should be about.

Well done to Dorking as " their never say die " team spirit got them over the line and based on the whole season they deserved it ,Fleet probably played the best " football " I have seen this season but just lack that killer instinct , we did ok getting into the play offs but Kingy has seen whats needed and his recruitment policy for next season will be a major factor in what I believe will be more difficult than this season with teams like Dover , Weymouth and Taunton coming in along with current batch of Ebbsfleet, Havant [ cant believe they can be as bad again ] Chippenham and Oxford , looking forward to what should be a great season of football with the extra games !!!!!

Congratulations to Dorking Wanderers. It will be interesting to see how they cope next season.
I think Worthing need a mention also as they were running away with the Isthmian Premier on three occasions (two interrupted by covid). Happy to get over the line at long last. A team to watch.

Blimey its not that long ago we would have regarded ourselves as superior in all things to Bromley FC but yesterday they won the FA Trophy in front of 46000 at Wembley. I wouldn't be surprised if they started to knock on the door of the football league and emulate Sutton Utd. I wonder where their finance is coming from?
