Great article and a great game. We’re getting close to the final 10 or run in as it’s called. Needs to be followed up by a win on Tuesday and then an interesting dilemma could await at Eastleigh depending on if they’ve appointed anyone

Love this breakdown, from what I saw it was a thrilling encounter and to be in it with the fans

Was another thing ,

Mach I agree with the young pretenders meeting up and just wanted to say we are working behind the scenes to stamp

It out of our club, not

Sure if anyone saw an ejection was made by police at half time, one of our youngsters was seen arranging a meet. And another group were apprehended midway through second half by tea hut by security and police., ejected and had details

Taken by police. Ultimately they missed a thrilling game for

It

, and You look at these youngsters and think to yourself, what would they actually do

In a fighting situation, but on the other hand , I love the passion and the noise. There’s just a level of respect they owe the stadium and the other fans. I really feel at Bromley Fan support has before been the catalyst in a on pitch drive. And we need everyone to keep

The momentum going more then ever.

Have to say the ones who have bought the constant noise behind the goal are to be commended for that.

No way sir , by all means , they are the life blood of this support insurgence , the drum and flags and bells and whistles is encouraged by the our security team and the club. I think they are an integral part of the atmosphere… however the group that continue to try and insight violence, are on facial recognition a couple even on a stadium ban

Yh not surprised sadly. They only have themselves to blame. Never understood the whole scene, especially nowadays when it all seems to be acting

As always, a great read. Mash given your level of predicting the future if you could send over the lottery numbers that would be expected.

I thought Bromley were excellent and the never give up attitude needs to be commended. To come from behind twice was great. I hope Corey's injury isn't too bad although I thought Myles did well when he came on.

Anyone know why Ben came off? He must be exhausted so maybe we can rest him either tomorrow or on Saturday? He has seemed a bit quiet ever since Ebbsfleet game and given the interest not unexpected as someone who is still very young.

As for fans, its a fine line and clearly it would be good for some of the noise to reach the other stands to create a fortress but that shouldn't come with the threat of violence etc.

Agree with what you say about Kirk , he was the pick of our defenders on the day . Louis had best game for a while & Fela was lively when he came on .

Anyone there saw the game pretty much a nothing first half that exploded ridiculous in the second half.Greatest game many have seen because Bromley won ! I’ve seen some great games in my time,not so great if you lose,perspective.

Best thing for me was proof Bromley have it for the big occasion when that comes.May need to wrap the talisman in cotton wool when necessary.

Trouble comes with the new territory upon which Bromley seek to embark just as empty seats in the corporate area 10/15 mins into the second half are part of the New World Order.

Ask someone who travelled the slam door rattlers in the 70/80’s about football hooligans.

Kids posturing around Bromley Sth Station goodness sake lge 2. and Gillingham await !

We saw the empty seats again, and people around me commented too.

I enjoyed reading this article, as usual. I also read the NLP match report with equal vigour. Both attributed to you, but the players marks out of 10 differ. Here you have Cheek as 10 and Kirk as 8, but in the NLP they are 9 and 7 respectively. Would that be the NLP massaging the numbers to suit a matchday best XI? If so, it would certainly lend an explanation to some strange selections!

To be fair - The NLP reactions are always under a time pressure whereas when I come to G/B/U I take a bit more consideration over the ratings.

Ok once again… SPOT ON -

one slight variation from my scores … I have Grant, Charles, and Reynolds bit higher.

Andy Woodman deserves the 11/10 for his starting 11 - formation and substitutes!

Defensive line with talented flexible wingbacks ans SOLID center backs- and our stellar offense who clicked at the right moments and of course CHEEK!!! …

Our performance was gold star!
