Bromley are flying at the moment and we haven't won at home

Plus they have one of the best strikers in the division

Morecambe 1 Bromley 2 and the struggle continues

Att 2450 including 50 ish from Bromley

Morecambe 1??? An own goal or a penalty?

We might put up a better fight at home but no idea where a goal comes from.

Morecambe 0-1 Bromley

Nervy 1.0 morecambe. 2500ish with 200 from Bromley

Following a recent game at Accrington Bromley were described as a PTSD team. Push, tug, shove and dive style of football. We have been warned what to expect.

Non League Bromley fans laughed at us when Stephen Robinson signed Courtney Duffus from them to play in EFL 1. They were amazed we hadn't gone for Michael Cheek who was by far the better of the two. They were right! Cheek is doing the business for them in the EFL and Duffus finds himself at the dizzy heights of Bootle FC.

More grief I'm afraid. Us 0 them 1.

I'm going to be at the game, so I'm bringing us luck.

1-1

We need more than luck mate!

I'm not going to comment!!!! 2-1 home win

Maybe go 4 4 2 next week and see if it makes any difference

Burgoyne

Hendrie. Williams. Stott. Tutonda

Tollitt. White. Mcadam. Lewis

Slew. Hope/Dackers

I’m crap at this, we need the points so it’s a mad desperate guess at a 2-1 win!

I have every faith in the team to win, but no faith in D.A's tactics.
Shrimps 1 - Bromley 2. Shrimps scoring a consolation 91 mins.

Looks like another game where its blowing a gale

Wonder if we will have learnt anything from the Grimsby shambles

2 1 defeat

Who knows..I think every prediction I've made so far hasn't happened...so with that in mind I'm going for a
3 -0 home win....let's see if there is a Santa Clause...

This one really frustrates me! It's our ground, yet away teams work out the gale force winds better than us. It is a swirling ground. Next time it is blowing, look at the corner flags. Frequently, one will be getting almost blown out of the ground, while another will be completely unmoved. The wind is almost always (despite the swirls) coming from the sea end. When we got dumped out of the FA Cup v Dagenham & Redbridge all those years ago, they worked out that if the hoofed the ball high and hard from just inside their own half, the ball caught in the wind, then dropped straight down, just inside our penalty area. Their attackers were running onto the ball while our defence were facing the wrong direction. We couldn't head the ball back to the keeper. I'm not entirely sure, but I think all the Daggers goals came while playing into the wind. I think they drew a Premier League side after that (Everton?) We've had numerous games similar to that, where the opposition worked things out, while we continued to struggle.

Also, in those conditions, when taking a corner with the wind behind us, why do we never have a player at the far side of the penalty area, towards the other corner flag? Frequently the ball gets caught in the wind and sails right over the penalty area, out for a goal kick, or even, a throw-in. Have someone wide to collect those balls. Even a defensive header will often get blown in that direction.

My other bug-bear re conditions, at certain times of the year, the sun is low, straight into the keeper's eyes. Why, oh why, oh why, do we never take a pot shot from our right-hand side, knowing the keeper is likely to be dazzled? I've only seen one goal scored from that angle, where the sun played a part... ...and it was Barry Roche who fumbled it!

Oh yes it has!

Need to get something out of this game, form book unfortunately dictates a home defeat. Let's go for that home win instead.
1-0 Shrimps

Looking for a 1-0 win from our boys. I don't expect it will happen, but a man can dream.

0 - 2 don't know where the goals are going to come from, but i hope the team get some rewards for the effort they are putting in. You can't fault them for that!

I thought Stu was fit again?

Stuart out for 4 to 5 weeks

Derek just said he will be looking at bringing another keeper in during the window

At least 4 of those out injured would be in the first team.

As for a replacement goalkeeper is our former loanee who spent time at Exeter and Readings still available???
