Seen a couple of tweets saying we could have it won by then…tickets are on sale on their website already, it’s not a massive allocation.

It would need a very hopeful set of results for that to be the case... but it looks like we will have caught up our games in hand by then so it could be all bar mathematically certain....and we could have over 90 points. In Feb!

Absolutely dire view, flat small standing with a small tiered stand.

They’ve built better facilities since we last went and increased capacity I’m told. No longer flag standing behind the goal

If/when we beat Ebbsfleet on Saturday, that leaves a points total of 17 to erode. Effectively equal to 5 wins for us and 2 defeats to Bromley or however you want to cut it. Means we win the league at Dorking. Obviously we play Bromley and Barnet in that little cluster of games. Take your pick which game it will be between Dorking, Fylde and Oxford City. It should be over by the time we go to Oldham.

Presumably TNT are eyeing up being able to show us clinching the title which in a way means if it is to be that day plenty more will get to see it happen even if its only on TV.

It would be a shame if we won it at Dorking.

The sooner the better and all that but I’d much prefer to win the league on home soil in front of a bumper crowd, for the fans and the players.

Yep. Or I'd settle on Oldham away after their antics earlier this season.

That's too late now, it would mean a drop in form and that we have probably lost against Bromley and/or Barnet. I'd have settled for Oldham or one of the two home games earlier but recent results have brought expectations forward so that Dorking is very much in play.

I wonder if they'll fit in another game shortly after if needs be. I'm sure they have scheduled additional games at short notice in the last couple of years hoping to catch the league winners

I reckon the away followings will drop if there’s nothing to play for

We've had our tickets for about 3 weeks I thought we would have sold out by now.

Another downside of it being Dorking is that with the early kickoff it might be later in the day that promotion is confirmed if one or more of the chasing pack falter. That would be a bit of a damp squib.
