"Dorking Wanderers have signed a loyal supporter to play in goal ahead of their non-league clash with AFC Totton this weekend. With first-choice goalkeeper Harrison Foulkes set to be sidelined for four weeks with a spleen injury, outspoken manager Marc White has opted to sign 54-year-old fan and loyal supporter Terry Dunn. Dunn, who hung up his boots back in 1997, will feature for the Wanderers on Saturday in their National League South clash at Meadowbank."
"With time running out and Foulkes injured, White has been left with no choice but to call upon the services of Dunn for an occasion he will most likely never forget. Dunn, 54, whose former clubs include the now extinct North Holmwood FC, is said to have won multiple promotions with local sides in and around the Surrey area and is well known by those at the club."
Dorking Wanderers signed 54-year-old supporter Terry Dunn on a short-term deal to play in goal for their National League South match at Meadowbank against AFC Totton. First-choice goalkeeper Harrison Foulkes is expected to be sidelined for four weeks with a spleen injury, prompting the emergency signing. Dunn retired from competitive football in 1997 but still plays walking football and has a history of promotions with local Surrey-area sides, including North Holmwood FC. Manager and chairman Marc White emphasized Dunn's passion and heart while confirming the signing is for one game and a new goalkeeper will arrive on Monday.
