Yes what can you say about them they do not play like that at home yet their away record is the best of any team.
Well done Dover and bad or good weather we will be there at the next match.

Brilliant performance, down to ten men after 3 minutes against a team with one of the best home records in the league. Just could not break us down and had no answer to the pace of Modeste and Ademola. Next Saturday we do it all again at Gravesend against Ebbsfleet.

With you there Howard Dover and the Irons winning. great day..
It was a good game and the best game I have watched Dover play this season both home and away. Down to ten men from the third minute and then in the second half when we all thought they would start to get tired they do know more that score three good goals.
Job half done just need to turn it on against Ebbsfleet and try keeping 11 men on the pitch to do it.

P.S: Vic please stay away from the final I have come to the conclusion after two seasons of seeing you at the odd games that you are a JINX mate. Sorry

Is that a car or a bandwagon?

Yes there will be a good few bandwagons from both sides just as there was for us at Huddersfield, Salisbury and Mk Dons, but hey ho as long as they get behind the team and give vocal support to the side. Big question is, will they be there at the start of next season or will they wait and see who and how well we are playing..
Anyway it will be good to see them there swelling the crowd.
It looks like Saturday's final is all ticket and Season Ticket holders get first chance of tickets so keep your eye on the club web site.

If it is all ticket that means we might not be going
As I have not been supporting them all this year.
So it would nor be right to get a ticket for myself which might stop a true supporter going so if any left over then we might go.

Vic there should be plenty to go round, but I do think there should be a system whereby regular supporters get the tickets first not just season ticket holders.
Do not take me too serious Vic, all clubs have supporters for the big games that is why a lot of regular fans do not get to cup finals

A dress rehearsal at Gillingham today as we play Ebbslfleet in the Kent Senior Cup Final, both will no doubt play youngsters and fringe players with Saturday being the big game.

Here are the highlights from Saturday. Most of the Dover fans were in the covered stand below the cameraman in the 2nd half, so can't be seen or heard well.

Dover played 6 youngsters 3 first team & 2 fringe players and brought on a couple more youngsters in the second half against Ebbsfleet who played a couple of young players and the rest from their first team squad. It was very much boys against men and Ebbsfleet won 4 0.
Looks like Chris Kinnear has saved our players for the big one next Saturday, so do not take too much from today's game.

Saturday's game is not all-ticket.

It wasn't great at Priestfield as a weakened side were easily brushed aside. Not sure how much of a psychological advantage it gives Ebbsfleet, but it cannot hurt them.
EDIT The final is not all ticket but there is limited space - a 1000 capacity terrace plus 177 seats for Dover, and the option of a 200-capacity overflow standing area. In total, room for about 1500 Dover fans.
