ALTY look to return to winning ways in the Vanarama National League this Tuesday (7.45pm) as we welcome Dorking Wanderers to The J. Davidson Stadium.

The Robins (9th, 52pts) remain within playoff contention despite struggling for form over recent weeks and will have their eyes set on rebuilding against relegation-threatened Dorking (20th, 41pts).

Tuesday’s home fixture marks our first meeting against the Wanderers this season, following a series of weather-related postponements.

Hear from the Gaffer

Importance of support: “We are receiving outstanding support at the moment and I feel so bad that we are not delivering for them. I really appreciate how much money people are paying to watch us and get behind this club. We are so lucky to have our supporters.”

Improvement on the horizon: “It is massive that we have home advantage for the next run of games. Another major thing will be having bodies back - lads with the bit between their teeth with a point to prove and the fans fully behind us, as they have been all season. We have got to show gumption, desire and entertainment, that is what we pride ourselves on.”
