Whites’ start the first of seven pre-season matches away at Southern Counties East League Premier Division side Deal Town tonight for a second consecutive season.

Chris Kinnear’s men were 3-0 victors at the Charles Ground last year and Athletic’s boss will once again run the rule over the nine Dover players already signed up for the upcoming campaign, as well as a number of triallists.

Visiting fans will be able to watch new striker Inih Effiong in action, as well as the returning Kevin Lokko after the defender, on loan with Whites from Stevenage for the latter months of last season, made the move permanent last week.

Tonight’s game kicks-off at 7.30pm at admission is as follows:

Adults: £5

Concessions and children: £3
