Adam Thompson has joined Merstham on loan - but Kingstonian boss Alan Dowson is already relishing getting him back.

The defender will spend a month at the Ryman League Division One South side in a bid to get some match fitness.

"We have been able to get Adam treated quicker than expected with a non-invasive procedure that avoided surgery, so he's got the all clear to return to full action now," Dowson told kingstonian.net

"He has consistently been one of my best players so I can't wait to get him back, but he missed all of the summer and also the start of the season so we need to get him match fit again."
