PREVIEW: WHITES V MAIDENHEAD

Whites host the Magpies on Saturday aiming to change their current home form in the National League.

Tuesday night’s 2-0 defeat to Dagenham & Redbridge extended Dover’s losing streak to four consecutive matches at Crabble, with their last win coming against Havant & Waterlooville back in August.

However Andy Hessenthaler’s men are up against a side also on a poor run of results.

Alan Devonshire’s side have lost five National League matches in a row, including 6-0 and 7-0 losses against AFC Fylde and Havant & Waterlooville respectively.

HOOK LEAVES CRABBLE

Long-serving goalkeeping coach Lee Hook has left the club.

The 39-year-old arrived at Crabble from Eastbourne Borough as a player in 2009 and went on to make 41 appearances in all competitions.
