Our next game:

Is now Saturday 17th November versus Hayes Lane Ultras FC; the Bromley Supporters' Team.
This is a 10.30am kick off at Belair Park.
The First Team are at home to Croydon Athletic in the afternoon.
This will be our first game for around a month. Unfortunately our last scheduled match was cancelled on the 27th October. We had been due to play away to Grays Athletic Supporters' at the 'half way' venue of Norman Park, in Bromley. But we, somewhat disgracefully in my opinion, could not raise a side. You can bet your bottom dollar that we will have players queuing up to pull the shirts on at HOME to Bromley, as it's only down the road.
Our Football Team is NOT just about the easy home games, and hand on heart, was Bromley really that difficult to get to?
It is about building bridges with other teams, having fun, representing our Club, and being committed to the team...not just when it's a few minutes down the road. Having tried to organise this team in the past until Andy and Larry took over I know what a thankless task it is, and when games are called off it is extremely demoralising. So please: try to make the effort. I realise that the majority of you can't make every game we play, but it really is not just about the home games, or the 'prestige' tournaments at Champion Hill Stadium; where-for some strange reason-we had a full squad, with people coming out of the woodwork to play, and some even turning turning up with their boots unexpected! If only that could happen every game eh...
