Dorking (H) - Match Thread
« on: October 17, 2023, 09:42:40 AM »

I don't think it's time to 'chuck the baby out with the bathwater' just yet - plus it's hardly like we have alternative options to come in:

               Ross
Banks  Cooper  Baines  E.Jones
      Marriott(c)  Osborne
Amaluzor  Conn-Clarke  Newby
               Angus

As disappointing as Dior Angus was on Saturday, I don't think it's time to rotate him out just yet - but I suspect that's where others might disagree with me and bring Sithole in.

I would go with the above, don't think Sithole is fit eough to start based upon what Parky said yesterday on Pastries, though he is looking at bringing a player in or two. Kosylo looks 2 weeks away and Linney further still. Joey apparently not back till late Dec.

Same lineup for me, Sithole won’t be fit just yet, use him as a sub by all means.. the rest of the team I would leave well alone for now.

Alty 3 -1 Dorking.

All of Friday and Saturday morning looking dry at the moment, so the pitch should have some decent recovery time too.

Well I am! Having said that, would you rush back from the sunny Caribbean? 😊

I think they're playing again tonight.

Might be making up, but I'm sure I read somewhere that he'd be given the appropriate resting time afterwards - so maybe an introduction from the bench on Saturday.

He was withdrawn after 64 minutes of their 1-0 win in Belize on Saturday, and played the full game in last night's return fixture which ended 1-1.

It should be noted that they have two more games on the 17th and 21st November, so it's possible we could lose him for our visit to Eastleigh, and the home game with Rochdale. If we're looking to rearrange a game for our blank Saturday on November 4th I'd be looking closely at that Rochdale match!

That's why I'm usually inclined just to get the games played - missing a Saturday and then going Saturday-Tuesday-Saturday another time makes no sense to me, and the rest is surely more valuable than whoever we have unavailable, particularly given there will probably be other absences further down the line anyway.

Looks like I spoke far too soon on this  :( absolutely tipping it down here at the moment, and rain expected tomorrow too.

This one could be in doubt now, surely...?

I'd hope our pitch is bulletproof now, we paid enough to make it so.

Let’s hope we don’t embarrass ourselves and PP at lunchtime
When Dorking and there fans are on route.
At this moment in time PP would be the sensible option the rain
Has been relentless and more forecast.

It's only bullet proof to a point, according to data where I live next to the ground, had 14mm of rain in 6 hours, thats a lot and 11mm due in next 24 hours, so backing off. As others say, see how it drains. P-P is a possibility I would imagine.
