Dorking Wandering
The Dorking Wanderers FC Fans Forum
No Pybus, Gallagher or Carter, but coming off the back of some good football against Dover, it's going to be an interesting game
Hopefully a really decent crowd packed into Meadowbank.....Match tickets link: https://dwfc.ticketco.events/uk/en/e/dwfc_v_tufc

@gary-munnery Yes he's around - saw him at the game yesterday.
How bloody good was that first half! Josh Taylor, Vincent & Lewis absolutely rocking it at the moment. Never been his biggest fan but got to admit Luke Moore was quality as well. Glimpses of peak Alfie R as well was nice to see. A result I didn’t expect and thought we’d get castles 0-2 or such!!! Well done Marc and team. Onwards to Tuesday.
Yes Binesy is very much still involved but his son plays for the B team so he is often at their games if they clash with 1st team ones

Yes, @Gary Munnery. He was in the main stand yesterday and I’ve seen him there quite a bit this season
Bit late to this one but what a performance! For me, it's the pace we have over the last game and a half - driving forward relenlessly with the potential to completely overwhelm teams. Which is quite something given the crucial injuries and a certain 37 year old in midfield!
Excellent performance, especially first half. You can see the difference it makes to the side when we score early in matches. Josh Taylor honestly may go down as the best player that has ever played for the club. The one thing he has always been missing was goals and assists but he has 3 goals and 3 assists already this season and it makes such a difference.
Only real concern are some of the injuries we seemingly picked up. McManus getting injured again was dissapointing but it will be a massive blow is Josh is out as well. We could genuinely be down to 12 or so fit players for tomorrow night...

Interesting stats - I thought they would be more one-sided. Do they stats for first half only @TomCalvert?
First two goals were absolute quality, although they did come from horrible mistakes, as Torquay manager flagged. The main positive was the domination of the 50-50s and total control defensively. Those channel balls never posed a problem, unlike vs Dover. My only negative was that we should be scoring more from the barrage of top quality crosses Lewis put over, especially in first half. He is on fire at the moment.
@baggy Not on Sofascore but i'm sure the club have them.
The attacking momentum visual shows how dominant we were first half though.
Love that!
