3rd in the league. Played 6 Won 4 Drawn 1 Lost 1. The system isn't working
Played 6, scored 8 conceeded 5. Think Duke is suggesting the system isn't working
as well as the system played last year? I think the stats might support what he is saying Reginald??
Seems to me that many will accept nothing less than
Pld 6 won 6 drawn 0 lost 0 GF 24 GA 0
We absolutely battered Dorking battered them. Yes we were sloppy in ways for their goals and it can be said "well concede 3 you don't deserve to win" I get that. But to suggest that the system isn't working is for me not right. As I say pld 6 w 4 d 1 L 1 is the stat that suggests it is. If anyone can put stats up on this platform to suggest otherwise then I will come back on and agree that Reg was wrong. As for the dislike of Dorking, well a spoilt brat in charge is the starting point. He is throwing bundles of cash at it bundles. Barry Fuller is there for cash alone. Park Life is correct when his cash reaches a level where it has no impact he will be gone. "Goodnight nurse" he is similar to Tamplin. They have some decent players of course as he can pay them mercenaries monies but of anyone thinks they were better than our players yesterday then they are wrong. I repeat we battered them.
I think you are being a bit harsh on White. Whilst he certainly isn't everyone's cup of tea he is definately a football man and he is Dorking FC. He started the club and is a fan too, nothing like Tamplin who was flashing his cash to boost his own ego. This guy has worked miracles and has invested a lot of his own time and money into the club. Obviously an intelligent guy who knows what he is doing - he wouldn't be a National South manager if he wasn't up to it (and a pretty good one at that). Credit where credit is due.

White has a massively inflated ego. Anyone can splash the cash in football and be successful nothing clever in that. Hence the boring premiership. Have a listen to his interviews (well not an actual interview, he is asked a question and goes off for 10 plus minutes). Buying success is hardly working a miracle. Ebbsfleet isn't a miracle. Chelsea isn't a miracle and so on. Want to talk about miracles look no further than Steve King. We will be celebrating his birthday December 25th

Like I say, not everyone's cup of tea but you ought to read about it before casting opinions. I do agree he has a massively inflated ego but he has the clubs interests at heart.

This is the first time I have really looked at their story and fair play to the fella. He actually makes TB look softcore in comparison.

I managed to get to 28 seconds before i couldn't take anymore. What dont you get. Pay players, yes of course of a higher standard, huge wages you will then win things. Its not hard. I dont get why you think its clever. Barry Fuller dropped out of the football league to play for them why. Because Dorking is a nice place !!!!!! Park life has repeatedly said and is correct, there comes a stage when the wealth you put in doesn't win you promotions because you are then on a level playing field with others. And then what. Listen to the guy after Hungerford. Listen to him

Yes but he started at parks football, come on give the guy a break. I agree now he is climbing the leagues he is pumping money in but he is mad for it and good luck to him. He will reach his level but he is proving to be a great manager - must be quality if he can turn us over at PP...

I wouldn't have put TB's name in the same conversation, they truly are miles apart.
If you want some fun go back and watch their post match interviews, you will get a more balanced opinion and have a great laugh. I feel sorry for some of their players the way he criticises them in public but it's his club so he can do what he likes. I just don't see that model of investment as sustainable and makes me appreciate the hard work our club has done. Good times ahead for us I believe.
