Dover's new recruits gave them a perfect start to their 2011/12 Blue Square South campaign with a 4-0 win at home to Dorchester Town.

Two goals each from new signings Billy Bricknell and George Purcell ensured Martin Hayes' side were never troubled by their visitors to The Crabble.

Bricknell turned in a man of the match performance and opened the Whites' account for the season on his club debut after just 14 minutes.

The frontman bundled in a rebound after the Dorchester defence failed to clear a Barry Cogan free kick. Purcell then doubled the advantage just four later when he was put through on goal.

Dorchester keeper Simon Evans saved his first attempt with his legs, but Purcell held his nerve to slot the ball home on the rebound.

Things soon got even better for Purcell and Dover as he made it 3-0 after just 23 minutes. Purcell fired home in the area as a static Dorchester defence failed to handle Matt Johnson's cross.

After the break, the home side continued to dominate with Bricknell grabbing his second of the afternoon on the hour mark.

A neat left foot finish into the bottom corner gave Evans no chance in the Dorchester goal.

Substitute James Walker also put the ball in the net, but his stoppage time strike was ruled out for offside.
