That's four consecutive league defeats now and it's becoming increasingly difficult to pinpoint exactly where our next win is going to come from.
For a start, we hardly ever manage to keep a clean sheet in league fixtures (merely three achieved in 30 matches to date and, ironically, one of those was when Jordan Hulme was in goal for over half an hour), all of which means that we need to score at least two goals to win a game.
Plus we are both ridiculously and regularly vulnerable and porous at set-pieces and misgivings about our goalkeeper in such situations continue to grow.
I couldn't believe our naive defending for Bromley's second goal, when the dangerous Omar Sowunmi (who, incidentally, scored against us with a header from a set-piece at the JDS last season) was allowed an unmarked 20-yard trot into the penalty area on his route to winning that key header from a corner.
Plenty of huff and puff after we had pulled a goal back but it was all rather devoid of quality, with the sole exception of that delightful through ball to Linney which was executed by Pringle. Surely, he must get the nod over the utterly ineffective Cashman for the Woking fixture on Saturday?
It's all getting rather concerning.
Lovely words from Bill Waterson in his heartfelt tribute to John King, by the way.
