Bromley 2 Sutton 4

[Stewart]

This is the Bromley manager on our game:


Next up for Bromley are Sutton United who currently sit in the play-off places, with Goldberg predicting a similar test.

He explained: “I am expecting the same as we faced today (Bath).

“They have two very experienced players up front who are going to be very much like Andy Watkins and Josh Low who played well today.

“On the break they will be capable of causing problems.

“They will try and pop it around as well.”

Despite failing to beat Bath, the manager does not think the Sutton clash is a must-win encounter.

Goldberg explained: “Every game we have to go into believing we can win, but it depends on what you’re looking at as must-win.

“The fact we are competing and even thinking about the league title is a fabulous position to be in.

“I’m not sure any game is must-win, but it is very important we don’t lose our confidence and we build on the momentum of the season so far.”

We have a good record there, and both sides should be full of confidence. Dos won't be looking for a point so it should be a cracker.

I can see us getting a win tonight, as long as we keep there attack, midfield and defence quiet.

Is there a pitch inspection?

[markf]

While our overall record at Hayes Lane is pretty good - we were Bromley's bogey team for many a year before the war - our recent record isn't. Last season's win was our first in 8 competitive visits stretching back to 5th March 1996.

So, OS, your claim could be challenegd.

Tough game tonight,i will happily take a point

[Andy K]

A real toughie tonight - not just because we are playing the top side in the division, but a side with an excellent home record. In the league this season they've lost only once at home (v Concord) and drawn twice (Ebbsfleet and last Saturday with Bath), and have won 11 times.

A crumb of comfort is that before Xmas Bromley were knocking goals in for fun and winning by large margins, whilst more recently their wins have been more modest, with many being by the odd goal. Whilst we've kept loads of clean sheets since xmas, Bromley haven't had a clean sheet since Boxing day - unlike after we beat them, where they conceded 1 goal in 9 games.

Pre match, I think we'll all be happy with a point there, but as has happened many times before, we could end up playing well enough where if we draw, we'd be disappointed not to get 3 points.

Although I'm sure this will change as the league shuffles itself in the last couple months of the season, but as it stands we only play one side in the current promotion/play off spots (Ebbsfleet on 12th April), although we do have to face a couple of sides with many games in hand which if they win will be above us (Havant and Stortford) whilst we still have to play 6 out of the current bottom 7 clubs.

I'd be VERY happy with a point, but really disappointed if we lose, if that makes sense at all!

Haven't seen much since the squad changes but I fear we are a little short at the moment to challenge away at the leaders given their home record, especially since losing Weston. Hope to be proved wrong and I guess under Dos you can never rule us out. We'll need to be a whole lot better than Sat though.

Swaine doesn't start for them. This should help our cause.
