Well it’s fair to say that Bromley FC are in a bit of a crisis right now, six consecutive defeats, two points of the relegation places, players arguing amongst the mselves, injuries & suspension depleting the squad, manager attacking the fans in the press and scheduling our only remaining cup game for 24hours after a league match giving us three games in four days!
The FA Trophy exit at 1-3 home to Didcot, a team two divisions below us, was the final straw for many fans who up until that point had kept the ir views to a few close friends on the terraces. The problems with the squad are obvious for all to see, the y are too young, frequently played out of position, so low on confidence the y are afraid to do anything with the ball and lacking any kind of leadership on or off the field. We face Eastbourne Borough at home tomorrow in the league and only a blind optimist can see anything othe r than loss number seven coming up.
Exactly what has gone wrong since the Dartford FA Cup win is hard to say, but we certainly miss a proven goal scorer like the departed Warren McBean or the injured Gareth Williams to partner the amazing work rate and endeavour of Hakeem Araba up front. In defence we need Liam Harwood returned as starting centre back to be partnered by eithe r Gillman or Dolan and in midfield we need Salifou Ibrahima to partner Danny Waldren.
If the axe is to be swung as indicated by MG in the local press the n I hope he brings in experienced replacements as the experiment with loanee kids from league clubs has proved to be a failure so far.
