If the prediction league is anything to go by Stones have a ZERO % chance of winning the match. I saw Tonbridge beat Dorking which means they are far from invincible but the way they (Dawking) pass and spread the ball around and actually play football (as opposed to hoofball or header tennis) is very NL standard and great to watch. At home and playing like that they will probably be too much for us, who still lack that kind of skill and cohesion as a passing unit and may get overrun by a clearly better side playing real passing football - unless, like Tonbridge, we get an early goal and manager to hang on for grim death for 90 minutes thereafter. Nothing is impossible, but we will do very very well to come away from Meadowbank with anything, so the predictions are unsurprising but as I have said before this Stones team is like Forrest Gumps box of chocolates, and we are better away than at home, so who knows? At least Marc White wont be able to complain it was too dark to play football as he claimed at Tonbridge!

Only bonus is two of Dorkings players off injured and another looking dodgy.

Greenidge was also sent off when we last played at Dorking Stones Twitter says straight red for an elbow to the head. Greenidge isn’t the sort of player to do that deliberately. So he was either very get clumsy or the ref had a mad moment that has cost us dearly. I wonder if Rutherford was in the refs ear?

Maidstone labouring away to failure again it seems. Squad is so much weaker compared to last season.

It's interesting watching on TV for a different perspective - they won't pass to Lodovica; they know he's awful. Fowler went through and the smart pass to him but he didn't pass it!

Dorking have been terrible second half, you wouldn't think they were against 10 men, they've done nothing.
