The independent, bitter, often drunk voice of Dorchester Town. It's always the same old few who ruin it for the rest of us.

Hungerford, what a fucking day. Read all about our late winner along with how we elected a new pope, a new rider on the Brewery Square horse, Ultimate Sheep, reaping what you sow for 90 minutes, and lots about the forehead of Will Spetch.

Dorchester 1-1 Sholing.

Not at our best but never gave up and got the point we deserved. If you don't want ten minutes of injury time, don't waste ten minutes and think no one will notice. Chin up, Sholing, piss off back to the wrong half of Hampshire.

A few from Saturday's 3 points courtesy of the Polski Magpies who have a much better camera than us. Spetch > Pickford. Justice for Mad Maurice and his fallen Bargain Bucket. Up The Fucking Dorch.

Merthyr 0-0 Dorchester.

Another week, another away day, another very good point. Benfield immense, serious shift from the ten in front of him, and an even better result given who was missing. Best food in the league and either the best/worst bogs in the league depending on your perspective.
