After two impressive home wins in a row and slip up from Eastleigh, The Ravens find themselves top of the table again ahead of the next round of games on Tuesday night. The side showed real battling qualities against Eastbourne Borough to hold on to a 2-1 win last midweek and then showed real killer instinct in front of goal to defeat Maidenhead Utd 6-1 without ever really playing that well on Saturday!
The main concern ahead of the game at Staines are injuries to three of our back four. Staines held Eastleigh to 0-0 on Saturday and former Bromley striker Louis Theophanous also missed penalty in the game, which could have dented The Spitfires even more. The news appears to be that Rob Swaine should be fit along with Jack Holland who returns from illness, while Devate McKain is an able deputy for Dean Poolley at full back if he doesn’t shake off his knock, sadly it looks like new signing from Bury Town Alan Bailey-Dennis will be out for a while after limping off on debut with his knee already heavily strapped.
Tuesday is the first of four tough away games, three in the league at Staines, Eastbourne and Havant with a certain Kent Senior Cup Semi Final at Dover sandwiched in between on 1st April.
If when we return to Hayes Lane on 8th April to face Eastleigh we are still in the hunt then we will have done incredibly well.
There is a real buzz around Bromley FC at the moment, the quiz night to raise money for the installation of the new seats behind the goal was a great success in Friday night, The Ladies Team are also top of the league and in a cup final, the under age sides are doing well and crowds although still way short of what the team deserve are steadily up on last season.
Whatever happens to the first team from here it’s been a great season and good time to be a Bromley fan.
The only down side was dropping out of the London Senior Cup, but given the grief involved playing AFC Wimbledon it's probably something we could do without right now.
