Woking's latest loan signing, Lewis Walker, made an instant impact on his debut, scoring against AFC Fylde in the National League. Walker, who joined the Cardinals on Friday, agreed to a loan deal until January. He was introduced as a half-time substitute and scored just seven minutes later, doubling the advantage for Woking. The goal was a header from close range, and it marked a perfect start for the striker, who is still looking to find his match fitness after picking up a pre-season injury at Dover. Gillingham manager Neil Harris believes playing competitive league football is the right move for Walker, even though he could have had some action with the Gills. Harris said he spoke to Walker on Friday night and is really pleased for him, as it's a sensible thing for the football club to do. With Oli Hawkins missing, it would have been easy to keep Walker in the building, but Harris decided it was best for Walker to go out and play football. Walker's loan move is seen as a brave decision, as he isn't 100% fit, but it's a good loan move for him and a good decision for Gillingham to let him go. Since joining Gillingham, Walker has never had a run of games, mostly due to injury, and Harris hopes he goes and gets some game-time. The win against AFC Fylde was a significant one for Woking, and Walker's goal played a crucial part in the victory. Woking were already a goal up before Walker doubled the advantage, and the team will be looking to build on this win in their upcoming matches. Walker's loan deal until January will give him the opportunity to gain more match fitness and experience, and Woking will be hoping he can continue to make an impact on the pitch. The Cardinals' next match will be a tough test, but with Walker on board, they will be looking to get a positive result. And with Walker's goal-scoring form, Woking will be hoping to climb up the National League table. But for now, the focus is on the next match, and Woking will be looking to build on their win against AFC Fylde. So, the Cardinals will be working hard in training to prepare for their next match, and Walker will be looking to continue his goal-scoring form.
