Great Expectations

The league season finally got under way with a stylish 3-1 win at Havant and was followed up by another great 4-1 win at home to Steve King's well funded Whitehawk. 
After a lengthy seven game pre-season that saw us notch wins away at Dulwich, Whyteleafe and Beckenham, while we entertained league opposition at home losing to Dagenham & Gillingham, drawing with Swindon and Charlton and defeating Palace. All of which were well attended and saw Family Fun days launched for the last two Saturday fixtures.       
We suffered a real blow losing Sam Long for the season with a serious knee injury, but were able to bring back in Ugo Udoji as a more than capable replacement. The new strikers have struggled to find any form as yet, but they have been helped out by the form of goal scoring midfielders Moses Ademola & Pierre Joseph-Dubois, with Moses playing as a striker in recent games. If either Slabber, Scannell, Higgins or Birchall do find their feet we could have a real threat up front. The other new boys have settled in really well Reece Prestedge is a class act in midfield along with Harry Grant a threat on the wing and Seb Brown is starting to look the keeper he once was at AFC Wimbledon.       
It’s still very early days but there is an optimistic buzz around Hayes Lane that we will be up with Ebbsfleet & Sutton pushing for promotion again in April, let’s hope that does prove to be the case.   
We've been treated to some of the best football and goals I have ever seen from a Bromley side in recent times, when you consider where we were only a few years ago it's a remarkable turn around.
