Second-half goals from Jason Prior and Tom Blair secured two wins in a week for Dorking as they battled to a 2-0 victory at Hartlepool.

There was little to choose between the sides in a nip-and-tuck first half, although Hartlepool goalkeeper Pete Jameson had to be alert to tip away Dan Gallagher’s header from a corner.

George Francomb did well to scramble clear at the beginning of the second half then turned provider for the opener, with his corner to the back post headed home by Prior in the 63rd minute.

Emmanuel Dieseruvwe thought he had levelled but his tap-in was chalked off for offside before Blair sealed the points for Dorking, who defeated Ebbsfleet in midweek, after drilling low across Jameson.
