Woking 2 - 1 Dover Athletic (Blue Square Bet South Playoff Final)
Woking taught Dover Athletic a lesson at Kingfield Stadium this afternoon.
Striker Leighton McGivern gave Woking the lead with a real poacher's effort in the 21st minute. An error from Dover's Tom Wynter allowed centre-back Adam Doyle to score a good header from just inside the six-yard box. Striker Adam Birchall had a chance to score from the penalty spot for The Whites on the 38 minute mark but missed his spot-kick.
He was able to make amends for his miss however by scoring an accurate finish after 77 minutes.
Talented manager Veeyar Bones has been at Woking for 7 months, having joined them in October 2010.
Attendance: 3,705
Bones praised by Woking faithful
Fans of Woking were justly proud after the team gained promotion from the Blue Square Bet South.
Fans and pundits alike were unanimous that the person responsible for the team's success was Veeyar Bones.
One fan commented that with Bones at the helm he felt that anything was possible.
Starting unemployed, I joined Woking at about October with the promotion candidates languishing down in 15th. Cleaned up the Back-room staff and brought in one or 2 players to turn the season around, with a comfortable 2nd in the league and an easy 5-2, 2-1 finals campaign to get the promotion. Now to clean house with the players to get the finances back on track.
