WHITES MAKE TRIPLE SWOOP

WHITES MAKE TRIPLE SWOOP

DOVER Athletic completed a hat-trick of signings on Friday, including former West Ham United youngster Amos Nasha.

The 21-year-old midfielder was released by the Hammers last summer after making one first team appearance.

He will go straight into the squad for Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round qualifying tie at Burgess Hill Town.

Nasha made his senior debut for West Ham in the Europa League first qualifying round win against FC Lusitans in Andorra in July 2015.

London-born Nasha joined West Ham when he was 12 after being released by Tottenham Hotspur.

He appeared for the Hammers’ under-18s while still a schoolboy in the 2011/12 season.

His career in east London also saw him make 31 appearances in the under-21 Premier League.

Nasha will be joined in the squad by the two other signings, Dover Athletic Academy youngsters Stan Waller and Christopher Barnard.

Waller is a goalkeeper while Barnard is a midfielder.

Welcome to Crabble, Amos, Stan and Christopher!

PREVIEW: BURGESS HILL TOWN V WHITES

PREVIEW: BURGESS HILL TOWN V WHITES

MANAGER Chris Kinnear has received a much-needed fitness boost with goalkeepers Mitch Walker and Steve Arnold both in contention to play in the FA Cup clash at Burgess Hill Town on Saturday.

Walker (leg) was in doubt after getting injured during the defeat at Gateshead last Saturday while Arnold (ankle) has been absent since the loss at Chester a week earlier.

Ricky Modeste is also fit to play against the Ryman Premier League side after missing the past four matches while Sam Magri is back from international duty with the Malta under 21’s.

But it’s not all good news for Whites as they aim to reach the first round for the fourth consecutive season.

Aswad Thomas and Moses Emmanuel are both suspended while midfielders Chris Kinnear jnr and Leyton Orient loanee Sammy Moore will also both be missing at the Green Elephant Stadium.

Kinnear has a back injury while Moore’s parent club won’t let him play in the fourth round qualifying tie.

Dover’s other loanee, Eastleigh’s Ayo Oblieye is available to play at a ground where Whites have tasted FA Cup success before.

Goals from Andy Hessenthaler and Matt Carruthers sealed a 2-0 win in September 2007.

Whites also won both Ryman 1 South league meetings between the sides that season 1-0 with both goals scored by Jimmy Dryden.

The Hillians booked their place in the round after crushing Cadbury Heath, who play their football in The Toolstation Western Football League – Premier Division, 6-1.

They are unbeaten in their past 11 games in all competitions, a run that includes six wins.

They beat visiting Leatherhead 3-2 last Saturday.

JAKE LEBERL HONEST IN DEFEAT

JAKE LEBERL HONEST IN DEFEAT

ALL looked good for Dover after 35 minutes at the Gateshead International Stadium on Saturday.

Jack Parkinson’s first goal of the season had given Whites the lead after they had started the game with plenty of intent.

Those opening 35 minutes offered plenty of promise and the shock of the 5-0 drubbing at Chester the previous Saturday appeared set to be erased.

That was until the game dramatically turned on its head, when the hosts equalised less than 60 seconds after Parkinson’s fine strike.

Dover’s advantage was lost before half-time as the Heed went into the break with a 2-1 lead – it was something they never relinquished, eventually winning 4-2.

And assistant Dover manager Jake Leberl could not hide his disappointment after watching Whites slump to their second heavy away defeat of the week.

“I thought we started well and I couldn’t really see them scoring,” he said.

“We got ourselves ahead and then, well.

“Obviously you celebrate scoring a goal, but you have got to regain your focus straight away – we didn’t.

“The same happened at Torquay and then Chester and I had hoped that we would have learned that lesson but we got caught yet again.

“It was very disappointing to concede an equaliser so quickly and such a simple one at that.

“They got their tails up after that and we gave away another sloppy goal just before half-time – that killed us really.”

But despite Dover trailing, Leberl didn’t think it was game over.

He said: “I thought we had another goal in us as we had caused them a few problems in the first half.

“I was confident we’d get back in the game.

“Then we let in another soft goal straight after the break and that was a terrible time to do so.

“The lad just run through the middle of us before scoring and that was again another really disappointing goal to concede.

“The fourth goal was another simple one – ball played into feet before a turn and shot.

“No one is happy with the performance and we know we’ve got to work hard to remedy it.”

PREVIEW: GATESHEAD VS WHITES

PREVIEW: GATESHEAD VS WHITES

DOVER Athletic left-back Aswad Thomas has fond memories of playing at the Gateshead International Stadium last season.

And so do the 46 Dover fans who made the gruelling 692 mile round trip to Tyneside.

Thomas scored his first goal for Whites in the 3-2 win, a second consecutive victory for boss Chris Kinnear’s side at the venue.

In fact, Dover have a perfect record against the Heed, winning all four games against them since winning promotion to non league’s top-flight a couple of seasons ago.

Gateshead will start the game 11th on the National League ladder, three places and four points behind Whites.

But the hosts have not enjoyed the best of times in front of their home fans of late.

They are winless in their past three home games after a 1-0 defeat against North Ferriby United was followed by goalless draws against Solihull Moors and Torquay United.

*BS*WHAT IS GATESHEAD MANAGER NEIL ASPIN SAYING ABOUT DOVER? *BF*

“Dover are slightly similar to us in the respect that they can also beat anyone on their day, as they’ve shown already this season,” Aspin told doverathletic.com this week.

“They’re a well-managed side with a big man up front and they always make it difficult for their opponents.

“They were beaten heavily at Chester last week but I’m certain that was just a one-off because they quickly bounced back with a good 3-1 win over Sutton on Tuesday, so we’re anticipating a tough match.”

*BS*GATESHEAD’S RECENT FORM *BF*

Gateshead ended a run of four games without a goal courtesy of an impressive 1-0 win at Tranmere Rovers on Tuesday night.

After beginning the campaign in blistering form – including a 6-1 rout of York City on Tyneside – the Heed’s momentum had stalled ahead of their trip to Prenton Park.

Following that thrashing of the Minstermen, Neil Aspin’s side recorded just two wins in their next nine outings, and also equalled the club’s longest barren stretch in front of goal since their return to the National League in 2009.

But, Sam Jones’ 51st-minute strike proved sufficient for Gateshead in midweek, who will now look to end a three-game winless stretch on their own turf.

DOVER Athletic will be aiming to deliver an instant response following Saturday’s heavy defeat at Chester when they host Sutton United at Crabble on Tuesday.

Whites are hurting after the 5-0 loss, their heaviest of the season, and will be out to make amends.

The Surrey side will start the game 10th on the National League ladder, just one place and three points behind boss Chris Kinnear’s side.

But they are not enjoying a good time on the road – they have lost their past four away games.

They suffered defeats at Eastleigh (2-1), Wrexham (1-0), Gateshead (1-0) and Chester (4-0).

They last time we met, Ricky Modeste scored twice in a 3-0 win in the Conference South play-off semi-final second leg at Gander Green Lane.

That secured Dover a place in the final against Ebbsfleet and we all know what happened next!!

Dover’s current squad contains five of the starting line-up from that momentous last game against Sutton.

They are: Mitch Walker, Chris Kinnear jnr, Richard Orlu, Ricky Modeste and Emmanuel.
