Dorking Uncovered S2:E32 | Our Day In The Sun (The Play-Off Finale)

It all comes down to this.
After an incredible season of highs and lows, Dorking Wanderers face Ebbsfleet United at Meadowbank. The winner of the game will be promoted to the National League. And given that these two sides finished second and third in the league, this is a game that's expected to be closely fought.
Can Marc White inspire his team to one more win? Or is it a game too far?

[@scottrichardson1529]

​@tobydownes6607 yeah let's investigate why a club like ebbsfleet would want to throw away possibly the biggest game in their history. If you don't understand the passion ebbsfleet players have for the game then I don't think you understand why this channel exists

[@lewisgransden6364]

Got strangely emotional at the end! Didn’t realise I cared that much. Best hour and half video on KZbin

perfectly put - i really am a dorking fan i’ve realised.

I feel bad for people who don't know this channel exists. Unbelievable stuff

[@lonsdaleslipons9570]

Iv only just discovered it and cant get enough 😂 Brilliant watch

[@steviecava]

The camera work was excellent. Particularly when Mark was giving a team huddle and the camera was panning round the team and continued to follow mark. 10/10

[@cmb2934]

Love how mark took time to big up the great work put in by BOA and you can see that he thoroughly meant every word. Class act and I can't wait to follow again next season. Up the Wanderers!

[@cm5670]

Never thought I would get so emotional about a team that I didn’t know existed a few years ago and that’s on the complete other side of the country, what a season, what a club, congratulations.

[@martingreig]

This was mind-blowingly fucking good boys. The arc shot around the team huddle at full-time was just exquisite. The level of attention to detail in this series and the improvement upon improvement game on game has been a joy to watch. Looking forward to seeing you guys on the touchline more next season as I cover the National League as a photographer.

[@scottfranklin4592]

I’ve watched this on the patreon, this has to be one of the best things I’ve seen on utube in a long time, what a channel can’t wait till next season 👍

This programme should be on national TV. It is better than 99% of the crap on telly. Its 100% better than the football show that followed the progress of Gary Nevilles team!!

[@paulhumph7910]

THIS IS FOOTBALL!! You've absolutely nailed it Rich and team, even without this finale you produced the best representation of lower league football I've seen. But with this finale you've knocked it out of the park. Don't know how you're going to top it though, but I'll be watching come what may. Thanks.

[@GarethStringer]

Have I got something in my eye? Strange...... The music, the edit, the tension, the action, the characters, the humour, the fairytale.....Rich, this is your crowning glory as well as Dorking Wanderers' crowning glory. Marc, as ever, was bang on. You cover real football with real people and, while you played your part in this promotion, THAT is your ultimate achievement. Never change and please please, keep doing what you do. Thanks.

[@225dantheman]

This finale is undoubtedly one of the best sporting documentary episodes I've ever seen. Discovered the channel at the beginning of the season and followed every episode religiously. What a team, what a club and what a job Bunch of Amateurs have done! Roll on next season!!!!

[@simondeath7708]

That was an epic. The speech by Marc at the end was just superb. Love it Boa 👏👏👏

[@connorkent549]

As a Maidstone fan this series has been astonishing to follow. Absolutely incredible work here, the footballing journey and the skill to document it so beautifully. Really brilliant stuff. See you next year...

[@ianstanfield5485]

'Like Monet in a hen house, he draws a fowl' In the words of Marc 'F**king beautiful that'

[@lioneldore9047]

Another Patron here, so watching this for the second time. Brilliant, you couldn't script what's happened with Dorking. Rich and his team capture some magical moments. If you aren't on Patreon, consider doing that for more stuff, and just that Rich deserves the three quid per month (I think it's three quid, I'm in the US) it costs.

[@davidneedham5768]

Last 30 minutes was exceptional TV. High quality production. A big well done to BOA and to the player and mgt of Dorking wanderers

[@cruiseylee]

Brilliant series.. You need to show every game next season if you can Rich. Bloody amazing. Or charge a small fee for people to have full access. Thus has made me wanna get back involved in football. I may write to Marc.

[@hughjanus2020]

Good series. Whatever charisma is Marc White has it. Could sell ice to the Eskimos that man. One of life's winners. Passion to burn and he is infectious. Good for him. Been travelling to the games for a few years with my son and I will be back again next season.

[@LdotHatfield]

All season it’s been a class act from everyone involved at Dorking. A club that has been built within the community from the ground up, and through this series has brought a wider audience together. I hope to be a more present Dorking supporter next season and follow them on their journey in the national league. Well done Marc and well done BOA, absolutely superb.

[@JA-ed5us]

Mark’s closing comment was spot on. If it were not for BOA and the tremendous content you produce, I would have been stuck viewing millennials version of football focussed on their vlog thumbnail rather than the true game (excluding DWFTV who does a superb job). Thank you and I hope there’s room for our favourite ex amateur manager to also make a return next season, obviously subject to jet lag.

[@caveclangaming9566]

I haven’t cried in a long time, but suprising enough, after watching this seasons journey, I couldn’t help but shed a tear. Thank you for capturing something so special, I would’ve never known how important non league football is without you guys.

[@caveclangaming9566]

I’m also now a wanderer for life!!!!

[@steve11111966]

Its thanks to you guys that I have given up watching Palace in the premier league, and now going to watch Dorking. Started going at the end of February this year, and must say have be entertained at every game I have attended. Still wait for Sunday night for your class videos and love watching your aspect of the games I have seen. Keep up the good work.

[@Pennyburn1688]

Just came across your club this morning. Having loved football all my life and am now getting old, Dorking Wanderers restores my love of the game. Well done to everyone at your club from the manager to the guy in the car park.... I salute you, may your club continue to be a success and may the bonds and friendships blossom..... 💙 🙏

[@mark5439]

looking down at my previous comments it seems as tthough i watch this once a month. Every time ive bought a ticket for a match i come back to this video and every time I watch it, I cry during the last 15 minutes. brilliant just brilliant

[@shaunhiggy6918]

I've just watched this for the 14th time and it's the greatest documentary capture ever! The sinking feeling when they go 2-1 down then the hair raising equaliser 😢

[@OldManRocketLeague]

Me too fellas, me too.

[@philipjones8513]

I really like Dorking Wanderers a lot, I always check their result and I'm really rooting for to you to progress in The National League. Mark is a top lad and always treats our fans with massive respect at their place, putting money behind the bar for drinks and stuff. I think you'll find a lot Oldham fans have adopted you as their 2nd club. From an Oldham supporter.

[@craigw1977]

If someone watches that and doesn’t either enjoy it or feels slightly emotional then they’re not a fan of football!!!! What a finale!!!!

[@chewiezilla6728]

Enjoyed the whole season, watched the game live but this was far better. Well done BoA and DW

Which league arr they going to play now? 4 or 5?

Unbelievable. Essential watching for any football fan. So pleased I was there. Over 50 years of non league football, I thought seen it all….this topped the lot!

[@zachhomer8334]

That is why we do football. For moments like that. As a Crewe Alex fan we’ve been through some incredibly tough seasons, especially the one just gone, but you go through the hardship to experience moments like The Wanderers did. Best believe I’ll find a game to go to that Dorking will be playing next season. Amazing content BOA, captured football at its truest and rawest

[@Tomtomtomtomtom481]

I love how Marc can be so detailed with his prep but also revert to the basic "next goal!" during the game.

[@Leo.Simonds]

Absolutely class chaps, deserve all the recognition in the world for this series and I think it’s only a matter of time before you blow up. Best thing on KZbin by a country mile, see you next season.

[@henrykenyon]

Like monet in a hen house may be my favourite pun of the season what a phenomenal series this has been

[@joseflinnhoff]

The camera circling MW & the team during the full-time & extra time team talks? Genius. Both captured yet somehow added to the moment.

[@BunchOfAmateurs]

We got really lucky on one of them - he said the names of three players just as they came into view. Total fluke.

[@joseflinnhoff]

@@BunchOfAmateurs You make your own luck.

[@TopBoy1010]

What a game, what a manager, what a team, what a channel. I'm not crying, you are. Thank you guys x

[@stgp16]

Simply outstanding Rich. You captured one of the best moments of my life. Sat on the train commuting home with tears of happiness. One of the highest of highs. Was lucky to see the boys win the Isthmian Prem but it was by a long way so not nearly as much of a high. I will always appreciate a Barry Glendenning joke and putting one in the finale was perfect. He really is a lazy journo who would never appreciate what you do or the mighty Wanderers. He probably sneered at his own family whenever they got married or had a baby.

[@uncleraul3462]

Wanted to say something witty, vibrant, and stimulating. But you do it better than me so I'll just say Thank You BOA.

[@aaronlott4984]

While watching this video, it was as if I were watching the game live soon as the equalizer went it in I cheered. I knew Dorking wouldn't give up!!!! You guys did an incredible job in capturing this and the commentary topped it off :) 👏

Unbelievable this, I've only followed this from the current season, coming back to watch this is insane.

[@Brucey76]

Scotsman living in Adelaide, Australia. 45 & still playing in over 35's. Best game in the world. Ive been watching this for past 2 years every monday. What mark said at end about this being real football is bang on! I actually had a tear in my eye at the end there. Brought back the memories of championships & even the relegations i had through the years. Brilliant stuff boys & enjoy your day in the sun!

Living out in Dubai right now and have found myself following Dorking Wanderers the whole entire season.

What a season for the lads and will continue watching and following them and hope to get to some games myself next season to support the club.

What a way to end a series, if you were to write it, that’s how you’d write it! ✍️ Might be going a bit too deep here but this channel helped me through some dark times during COVID/Lockdowns, I stumbled across the channel when we was in the dark depths of the pandemic, so glad I did, great content and insight in to football and actually made me go and watch once of our our local teams (Brackley Town) Massive kudos to you and the team and Thank you! 👏🏼 Looking forward to whatever is next! 🎞
