Terribly sad news for someone so young. Thoughts and prayers for his family and friends and of course Sough Town at this difficult time.

Despite Dorking being on fire, they've signed a new striker.

Meanwhile Kingy has been crying out for one for weeks....

Dorking 1-0 Maidstone FT

10 points ahead of us, can't help but think it's all but over for us to challenge.

I think that it's written in the stars that we will play M@id$£one in the play-offs. Its all about second place now as I don't think Dorking will lose too many games from here.

You need to take a look around as I've been positive on here recently.

Yes we can get to a 4 point gap, however then due to our inferior GD we would need them to lose at least 2 more games and that would be assuming we win every one of our remaining ones. It's going to be extremely difficult

Just finished watching Marc Whites post match interview and the good news for the Darts is that Matt Briggs one of his outstanding palyers picked up an ACL injury and is very very unlikely to be fit for next weeks game added to the injury of Jason prior

Whilst on a sympathy level I do NOT want to see players get injured it is however good news for the Darts as both are outstanding players and a big loss for Dorking

I am a well-wisher insofar as I don’t wish any players significant harm, but should trivialities befall the entire Dorking squad, I wouldn’t be inconsolable.

A perfectly cromulent stance, I’m sure like-minders will appreciate :D

Always liked Marc white, if we don’t win it I will be pleased if it’s him and Dorking, he puts his money where his mouth is and at least is a real character, which the game needs

In view of D.A.M's cromulent stance on Dorking's player situation, I wonder if this would embiggen us, next Saturday?

Agree with Lenny, what Marc White has done at Dorking has to be fully respected, in taking a team from park Football to the National league is an incredible achievement.

Of course as a DFC fan I want us to win and am really looking forward to the game on Saturday, there should be a good crowd in attendance and I am hoping that DFC take the game to them from the off.

Marc White went up in my estimation when earlier this season he was faced with a high number of injuries [ incl his prolific striker , Jason Prior] he stated that he had faith in his squad and that he would NOT be getting in [ panic] loans as cover , this undoubtedly has increased team bonding and the " us against the world " attitude has proved to be very successful .

IF we dont win the NLS then I want them to win it , easily ahead of Maidstone or Ebbsfleet , I have discounted Havant as Doswells bubble seems to have burst !!!

I think Duke that Ebbsfleet can be easily regarded as an ordinary also-ran side considering what is going on there and for all their shouting. Maidstone look strong even though they lost to Dorking yesterday. Oxford City looked okay to me, again, considering they lost Oldfield to Weymouth there has been a blip but not a big one.
I think that if Dorking get up into the National they could a force to contend with.

Whilst I reluctantly agree to a certain extent re the Dorking comments, they should have had their keeper red carded in the 20th something minute (with no gk on the bench) and we managed to score their winning goal for them in the 89th minute when we played at their place!!
So fcuk them basically!!

Rumours that changes going on at Bus Stop FC (won't name names until confirmed) but if correct seems madness to me.
