Andy Hessenthaler wants Dover to build on their opening-day point as they aim to attract supporters back to Crabble. Whites started their National League South season at the weekend with a 1-1 draw at Worthing in front of a big crowd of 1,506.

Lee Martin levelled for Dover at Woodside Road after Jake Robinson had given the Rebels an early advantage, while Worthing’s Ollie Pearce fired wide from the penalty spot early in the second period.

Having been relegated from the National League last term, with just two wins, Whites boss Hessenthaler is targeting a victorious return to Crabble this Saturday when they host Hungerford.

Hessenthaler said: “Winning games will bring them [the fans] back. "We were well-represented on Saturday, I have got to say, although there were a few idiots as well. “But hopefully, most of these fans support us again.
