Who do you think will get relegated?

[paolo]

Nut, really wasn't a comment directed at Div 1. It was just a generalisation on the fact that we all know clubs at higher levels that throw money at players instead of getting their ground up to scratch.

[Big J R]

YAWN !!!

 

Personally, I don't care. My allegiance is to my home club.

 

I don't, like some people, switch clubs to gain kudos or make myself bigger. I was born in 1947 and moved to Dorking in 1958 after my fathers death. I adore the town and I adore the people, (shame about certain legislative bodies though).

 

For all you team jumpers, I was at Meadowbank from 12:15 this afternoon, for ANOTHER team to see what could be done to save tonights game. soaked - yes ! But that's my commitment, unlike many other people.

 

Whilst we are on the subject of team-jumpers - What's happened to the invincible Wanderers over the last couple of week ?

 

D. Burt - I await your comments with anticipation, or are you out and about campaigning ??

we all know higher clubs throw money at the team , when all they need to do is put a bit into the facilities ,

good facilities = attracting good players ,

 

bjr you my mate are what every club needs , good decent volunteers to do things , not btk who turn up play and then piss off , leaving behind the clearing up

Fredian slip Guv?

What have you done with Mick T?

[Jeff Hamnett TSF]

no reason why dorking fc need to disappear entirely, even if they lose the court case. If they do get relegated there are a number of groundshares they could take up.

 

and bjr Ive abided by the forums owners request re Dorking, and Im very surprised you and the club think its wise to comment on named councillors in general and on here in particular.

 

and if anyone is still reading I doubt there will be any relegations.

I doubt div 1 will finish all its games.

 

all together now " bl00dy council" zzzz

 

 

[winnie]

Invicible Wanderers?! Nice of you to keep an eye on results, better still, why not come down & watch a game with all the other disgruntled DFC fans,

 

whats that saying...he who laughs last...

Yep - they've had them for years - it's the 100 seater stand they're missing - believed to be on order

For once I have to agree with someone from Staines Lammas. Burnham in the Southern League used to struggle to attract players and then the new pitch goes in followed by the new stand/clubhouse a couple of years later and with the same budget attracting better class players and had their best ever season last year.

[Terrence Collina]

Early days yet, but Bracknell Town pulled out of the bottom two last night for the first time this season! If you look at the bottom four from BGB, and should they go down, Bracknell would probably go into CoCo, Slough into the Spartan, Andover and Newport into the Wessex. From the Ryman I guess Molesey would go CoCo, Horsham YMCA could CoCo but would expect Sussex League. In the unlikely event that Whitstable or Eastbourne get dragged into it, Kent and Sussex respectively

[Krooner]

Big win for Bracknell last night. I agree with what Paolo says. I cannot understand clubs in the Premier Division who pay a decent sum of money to players but have a ground that has no chance of getting the grading. It just doesnt make sense. Merstham did everything right. Built their ground up to a good level before concentrating on the team and fair play to the them when they take their deserved place in Ryman next season.

[swoonara]

I think the key is that the ground and the team develope at a similar rate.Merstham is a good example, both on and off the field over the last three or four years.Active committee members,lots of people willing to help as opposed to other clubs where two or three people do ninety percent of the work.

I'm told they may have trouble getting them in situ and safety checked by March 31st.

Anyone know ?

[Jeff Hamnett TSF]

didnt the bloke who told you that know then?

[swoonara]

According to their website they have only raised £1840 of the 20k needed so it looks a bit doubtful that they will make it.Shame because they are a nice club.

[Terrence Collina]

you look at the grounds around the CoCo that have seating and the seats are hardly used because people prefer to stand at non league grounds. Those with larger followings tend to camp behind the goal and then change ends to also see the end that their team are attacking. The FA are making teams waste money on something that won't be used. Yes have seats, but reduce the amount required for each step.

[Jeff Hamnett TSF]

swoons the pledges are that amount, they will probably have a little of their own cash, maybe some FA funding, pehaps the bl00dy council lent them a fiver too.

 

So they may be nearer than it seems.
