Awesome Win, Now it's Time to Kick On!

With a fantastic FA Trophy victory over Kidderminster lifting the spirits it’s time to focus back on the relegation fight for the next few weeks starting with a very tough home game against Chelmsford City on Saturday. The Christmas fixtures could go a long way to shaping the second half of the season for Bromley with a double header against Sutton either side of a visit to Tonbridge.

If the squad and management show the same drive and commitment they did in last Saturday’s game in the league fixtures we could pull out of the bottom three going into 2013 and if rumours are true of just how far the budget is being stretched at the moment then they really do need to start justifying the faith Jerry Dolke has shown in them all.

By the time we travel to Dartford for the last sixteen of the FA Trophy on 12^th January let’s hope the pressure is off slightly and we can fully enjoy a local derby with a place in the quarter finals at stake. This is the first time in 40years that we have made it this far in the competition, which is a fine achievement. If we can go any further then the lure of a game at Wembley will be back in the offing for the first time since the FA Amateur Cup Final win of 1949, but it will mean very little if we lose Conference South status in the same season and the financial meltdown that will come with it.  

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
