Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
A fifth straight game at Meadowbank as we face Hornchurch for a top of the table clash tomorrow night. The Urchins currently sit in 3rd, just 3 points behind us and with an extra game in hand. They have 10 points from their last 5 games.
Injury news is bleak as McShane, Muitt and McCallum are all added to the long term absentee list. Francomb missed the Farnborough game but is visible in the training footage from this morning so might be in line for a return tomorrow night. Carter and Pybus were described as 7-10 days away before the game on Sat so likely won't make this one.

@hemelwanderer hope you get better soon. I’ll take the tickets mate, more than happy to send you some money.
@gary-munnery There yours👍 whats your email ill ping them over mate
@hemelwanderer Much appreciated. It’s ......
@gary-munnery Have sent them over, have a good one and hopefully another 3 points at the fortress Meadowbank👍🤞
Will be a really tough game and I reckon both sides would settle for a point. Balanta is a real goal threat for them, but not the only one. Hoping that we start with Knight and Vincent in midfield, with Gallagher.
1-1 (Rutherford)
Momentum is a big thing in football and I think we win this 2-1 despite lacking some key lads. Given a horrendous 2 weeks for key players all getting crocked for the season, the momentum carries us here.
Unless recruitment happens and a bit of gamble occurs on the recruitment side I do not see us staying in the top 3.
