Dover boss Andy Hessenthaler wants his side to put on a show at home this Saturday against top of the table Newport County.

The Whites have lost their last three at Crabble but victory at the weekend will put them top of the Blue Square South table.

Hessenthaler’s side bounced back with a win at Dorchester on Saturday and they currently sit two points behind Newport in second.

"Nothing will be won or lost on Saturday but it will be nice to get our home form back on track as it’s been sloppy of late," said the Whites boss.

Hessenthaler (pictured) said of his worst run as Dover boss: "It’s not nice but I’ve experienced it before as a player and manager and nothing fazes me. I hate losing but you have to be realistic. We are going to lose games, it’s just the manner of those defeats which wasn’t great."

Midfielder Craig Rocastle joined Forest Green Rovers before the weekend and Hessenthaler has indicated that he may make more changes to the squad.

Olly Schulz is doubtful for Saturday after picking up a knock in the Dorchester game.
