Nine NLS teams out of the FA Cup in yesterday’s matches. Dorking’s loss at Horsham was perhaps the biggest surprise.

If you read their forum it is full of toxic comments aimed at the board, it looks like a club tearing itself apart .

Expect to see player movement soon? Not sure any would be of our standard?

Their forum makes for grim reading. It’s hard to see how they break out of the downward spiral that began when they left Kingsmeadow. Scott Harris will be in much demand and no doubt many of the squad will follow him to wherever he lands up.

I think a couple are playing below their capability. Mitchell Gough at CB would be a useful squad addition and Stan Flaherty an attacking midfielder is well rated although we are not short in that area of the pitch. Bradley Wilson had a good goal scoring record when at Basingstoke and has 10 in 13 games this season.

Tony think we have mentioned Eddie Simon previously, good scoring record but as effective at our level? Yes Wilson is a good shout, was at the same level as Atkinson and scored goals for them.

Simon scored "only" 10 goals last season at step 3. Having watched him a few times my feeling is probably not one for us. Tends to play wide left rather than as a target man. I'm sure he had plenty of offers when he went on that amazing scoring run but decided not to step up. He's 28 and a dentist so probably not dreaming about professional football.

Yes as you say Tony, he is 28 and a dentist so he might be a “bit long in the tooth”!

I didn't think that much of Eddie Simon when I've seen him play. With the much more physical and tightly marked approach at our level he wouldn't get much of a look in.

Scott Harris has returned as K's manager. Just another normal day at that club!
