Maidstone could have some fresh faces in their side when they travel to fellow Ryman League, Division 1 South promotion hopefuls Dulwich this weekend.

A keeper is top of manager Jay Saunders’ wish list, after Gillingham recalled loanee Daren Hawkes, while he could also be in the market for a midfielder to bolster the ranks.

On Wednesday night, the Stones lost their League Cup quarter-final tie at East Thurrock 3-0. All three goals came from set-plays.

Saunders (pictured) knows he needs cover in goal following Hawkes’ departure. At present he only has Marc Powell to call upon.

Second-placed Dulwich will pose the Stones a stern test tomorrow (Saturday) but Saunders’ side were the first team to beat Dulwich this season, after winning the reverse fixture 2-0 in October.

Wednesday’s game was the first that Maidstone had played in 18 days and Saunders, who left himself out due to illness, included both Lewis Mingle and Sean Johnson, who are on dual registration with Tunbridge Wells.

Both leading scorer Shaun Welford (pictured) and Alex Flisher were rested and will return to the squad this weekend.
