Their is only one man to blame for this today. Hook line and sinker. The buck stops with Barry Bell. Dont blame anyone else. Your a disgrace. Bring back Andy Young

Two moments of real quality won the game for Dorking today. A great strike for their first goal and then what looked like a truly special free kick for their equaliser. Aside from that both teams seemed pretty even.

We are starting to look relatively dangerous going forward, which I suppose is something to be positive about. Once we tighten up at the back then I think results will start to go our way. My main concern is how unbalanced the squad seems. From what looked like a good summer of recruitment we’ve ended up with too many strikers and wingers, and no depth anywhere else.

why did we play a false left back when we have one on loan from southend sitting on the bench.
a better display but we cant keep letting goals in at the rate we are.
i thought noble was a yellow card not red,i hate seeing players make the most of a tackle
then get up and carry on once someone gets a card

Maybe because Rob Howard is a right back.

Gutted though it did feel like a minor victory in a weird way. As others have said the team looked a bit more together and played some really nice football. Yes, Flisher is not a left back but did not have a bad game at all and reminded me a bit of a Lee Burns but with a longer throw. I am more concerned about midfield if I am honest, the Dorking 14 and 8 had far too much room and caused all sorts of problems and not being closed down quickly enough. Dorking changed when the 14 dropped to back four in the second half and we should have done our homework on Sole for the free kick (i.e. in the programme notes).

Oh well on to the next game and a chance to climb the table as far as possible.

Very frustrating today. Going forward we seemed to have a lot more however the final ball still needs a lot of work. Especially the second half Mcqueen was open a few times and we missed the pass that would have sent him through.

Dorking players embarrassed themselves, not helped by the awful refereeing performance. Lost count as to how many times they rolled around the floor exaggerating contact knowing the ref would stop us going forward. As for the red card, what a joke, it was a yellow card offense.

Defence is still a disaster. Flisher motm baffles me as I thought Wynter deserved it. All of their wide attacks seemed to come down Flisher's wing which is unsurprising and needs sorting ASAP.

If it wasn't clear before, we're in for a long season. Realistically we need to forget about a late playoff charge and focus on staying in the league.

Defence that's down to Bell as well. Sitting in the bar after downing pints as if nothing was a problem. It disgusts me

For many reasons I’ve not been to game at PP
For five years , passed the ground today and the singing sounded wonderful, so the faithful must have supported Tony Burman and the team well
To have him back can only help
How ridiculous of some to suggest he shouldn’t be involved the man is dfc through and through
And personally I think he should take the team through the season
Well done to the fans you sounded great today
And good luck for the next few games, Burman will turn that team around...as I said many moons ago the directors need to back the team manager and get more people through the gates
More gate money means a more funds for the manager whoever that may be......I must get to a game soon, the hardcore fans deserve a team to be proud of

Thought that we deserved better. Dorking had some good players and played good football but very vulnerable with lack of height at the back, but the cheating how many times did their players go down as as though shot with a couple of rolls thrown in and how many times was a trainer needed for those serious injuries, one i think and to give a drink and the ref fell for it every time. From my position couldn't see the penalty decision and Nobles challenge but their players made sure of the outcome, swarming around the referee, who lets face it didn't have a clue. I walked away very disappointed not because we lost, what should have been a 7 goal thriller but the play acting i had witnessed from some of their players.

I welcome the departure of the joint duo and tony Bach as interim manager and was also glad to see Paul by his side. I have no idea if either have been watching us play this season but from team selection i suspect not they picked a team with absolutely no pace . Of the front six only noble can pick up pace quickly from a standing start and playing flisher at left back is beyond belief . Surely Whynter and Howard should have been full backs , one of them must be a better choice at left back, it didn’t take Dorking long to figure that area was a weakest spot. I don’t know if noble was told or he naturally drifted wide to help as both Flisher and Greenhalgh were motionless out there. This left only Allen to cover the centre and the right
I don’t know if i am the minority here but i find cunnington a difficult person to watch. All he seems to do is want to fight the opposition and is always one word or tackle from a card.
However this is the first game i have seen him not abusive to his fellow front players. Usually he shouts and flaps at the younger inexperienced players around him but today if he had flapped at Hayes or sherringham they would have told him where to go, if he shouted at greenhalgh ... well he just would not care. He has a go at wynter because he played the ball to cunnington feet and when he lost it he spent the next minute telling whynter the ball should have been played over the top. Would cunnington have chased the ball , i doubt it by the time he switched to third gear the keeper would have had the ball. Anyway he is so slow and this makes it easy to mark him, every centre half wants the centre forward to stand still and turn every ball into a physical fight. So for me he doesn’t do enough and I don’t want to see him starting games.
Once McQueen came on he gave something for the defenders to think about with his movement and pace and i feel sure if we had finished the game with 11 men he would have scored and we would have won the points. Also once he was off Charlie had more freedom to make space for himself in the box and he converted a peach of a cross from Hayes
I don’t know why wanadio was not named and i hope he had a knock rather booted out. I would like to see Charlie and McQueen spearhead the attack with two from wabo Hayes and wanadio taking the two two wide positions
I hope tony can help to pick up a few points soon before the board appoint a permanent manager
