New Year, Same as The Old One?

Happy New Year to all of you! The Christmas period was a mixed bag for Bromley with two games falling foul of the wet weather and then a fine victory at Tonbridge was followed by an abject defeat to Sutton at Hayes Lane on 1^st January. The results leave us third from bottom and facing a very tough task if we are to avoid relegation at the end of the season.

Mark Goldberg’s inability to get the team to play well on a regular basis leaves many fans baffled when there are flashes of what could be in games like Kidderminster & Tonbridge. With the huge wage bill we have at BFC to be in the relegation places is nothing short of criminal and one feels for the owner Jerry Dolke who has to continually fund this under achievement now the take over of the club is rumoured to be dead in the water.

Should the worse happen and we do go down the potential financial fall out could put Bromley FC back into jeopardy, which given the hard work of those who run the club behind the scenes is very cruel, but football is a results based business and ours are poor.

The FA Trophy, Kent & London Senior Cups seem like sheer folly at the moment given the league position, I hope we put as much into the league games at home to Eastleigh and away to Bath & Dorchester as we do into the Trophy game at Dartford over the next few weeks.

I’m finding it very hard to keep the faith right now.
