Back to winning ways thanks to a late strike from substitute Romone Rose. We played really well this match and in fairness, should of won by a much higher margin. Rose is an impressive outlet for us off the bench with his pace and dribbling ability as he's a player who will scare the opposition. We have Hyde up next who are sitting in second last position, will be very disappointed with anything less than a win.

Very disappointing result. To be fair, Hyde should of definitely won this one, we were terrible. We were very poor at the back and have goalkeeper Simon Locke to thank for us only letting in one goal. Andy Mangan came off the bench to grab the equaliser but we needed to win this game. Next up we travel to Kidderminster who are currently winning the league… will be happy with a draw and that's optimistic to say the least!

INJURY NEWS - GIANNOULIS FAKINOS RULED OUT FOR SIX WEEKS

View attachment 350409

Attacking midfielder Giannoulis Fakinos has been ruled out of action for a minimum of 6 weeks after suffering a pulled hamstring in tonight's draw against Hyde. Fakinos' injury leaves only veteran Gary Hart who can play in his position, going to see if Romone Rose can fill in there until Fakinos is back.

Fakinos has made 17 appearances in all competitions this season, scoring 4 goals along the way.

We were really unlucky to lose to top of the table Kidderminster by one goal to nil. I decided to go with Rose behind Mangan and Marriott and they linked well as a front three. We conceded from a corner just after the hour and had chances to draw level but it just wasn't to be. We travel to Cambridge next who are another side up near the top of table, hopefully we can grab a point.

Blue Square Premier League Table - 20/46

View attachment 350092

Very pleased with how the season has gone so far. We were predicted to finish 20th at the start of the season and now after 20 matches we are only 4 points off the play offs. I'm hoping we can stay within the hunt for the play offs and then you never know what can happen.

Positions 18-24 are in the spoiler as I messed up the image sizes.

This result wasn't as much as a whitewash as the scoreline predicts. We went two down in the first half before grabbing a goal back before the break through an own goal. I decided to go into 'overload' in the last ten minutes but Cambridge managed to catch us on the break scoring two quick fire goals. We face BSS side Hayes and Yeading United in the FA Trophy First Round next up, should be a convincing win… fingers crossed.

TRANSFER NEWS - FORMER PORTSMOUTH YOUNGSTER SIGNS FOR WOKING

View attachment 350088

Striker Chinedu Vine has signed a deal until the end of next season. Vine 19, was a free agent after being released from Portsmouth at the end of last season. He can play either left wing or striker but I will be using him as a striker as I don't use attacking wingers. Although we are doing well in the league, we have struggled for goals and with Vine only on £100 he isn't too much of a gamble.

What a terrible team performance which saw us crash out of the FA Trophy to Hayes and Yeading, a side in the league below us. As a defensive unit we were terrible, the performance of Jack Marriott was the only positive in a poor loss as he bagged his first hat-trick for the club. In a weird fixture schedule, we face Kidderminster next again in the league… really not what we needed.

PLAYER NEWS - MARRIOTT BREAKS GOAL DROUGHT

View attachment 350084












Woking striker Jack Marriott's hat-trick against Hayes and Yeading this afternoon saw the end of a goal drought that had lasted 13 hours. Marriott is now our top goalscorer in all competitions and has also got the most assists with seven. The striker is on loan from Ipswich until the end of the season and I did predict him to score 20 goals this season, hope his hat-trick can help him kick on from here.

Really rate this player, would love to be able to bring him into the club on a permanent basis if Ipswich decide they don't want him.

Really good result as we grabbed a draw against table topping Kidderminster. It's unfortunate as we probably should of come away with a win after substitute Andy Mangan put us ahead. Unfortunately we couldn't hold out for the win and conceded quickly after the goal. We face Chester next at home.

Terrible result as we crashed to defeat at home against Chester. With my formations we always manage to have a large chunk of possession however in this game we had nothing going forward. Hopefully we can put this match behind us and get a win against Nuneaton next. We have now gone 6 matches in all competitions without a win, slowly drifting away from the play offs.

Seven matches without a win now after a loss to an impressive Nuneaton side. Nutter scored with another trademark free kick, however at the same time it is very disappointing that my strikers aren't doing the business for me. It was good to see Fakinos score on his return to the side after injury. We face Dartford next who are near the bottom of table so we need to win this one.

Wow, what a brilliant way to end our winless run with a massive victory away at Dartford. Chinedu Vine grabbed his first goal for the club to set us on our way before wing backs John Nutter and Cian Hughton bothed bagged to put us three up within 17 minutes. John Nutter then scored his second from the spot before substitute Romone Rose scored a fifth. John Nutter is now our top goalscorer with eight, pretty good for a left back but really need my strikers to be scoring more. The win keeps us still in 10th position, 10 points off the play offs.

TRANSFER NEWS - SECOND SIGNING OF THE DAY FOR SKRILL PREMIER SIDE WOKING

View attachment 349581

Woking have completed the signing of striker Dave Hibbert from fellow Blue Square Premier side Nuneaton. Hibbert was on non-contract forms at Nuneaton and had scored 6 goals in 20 matches so far this season. Hibbert has signed a deal until the end of next season and hopefully will the answer to Woking's failures in front of goal.

Jack Marriott is Woking's highest scoring striker so far this season with 6 goals while Andy Mangan has scored 4.

Woking defender John Nutter has been announced as Skrill Premier Player Of The Month for December. John Nutter has scored eight goals so far this season and has excelled in the left wing back role and has scored some great free kicks. Cian Hughton came third in the POM awards too which is pleasing.

Nutter's contract is up at the end of the season, I will be looking to award him a new deal ASAP.

Woking manager Fola has signed a deal until the end of next season to stay as manager.

Very pleasing to get a new deal and I hope I can stay here for a long time. I tried to negotiate a longer deal but I don't think it can be done at part-time clubs. I'm hoping to request that we go full-time however we currently don't have the funds.
