[Sarf London Alty]

We got well and truly Conferenced last night, for the first time this season.

Really reminded me of the jobs Stockport did on us in the North actually. Well drilled, professional, compact and make you work your socks off for half a chance.

We've got to appeal that Kosylo red. Barely a booking.

Spot on. We first encountered these 5 years ago at their start of our demise all the way down to the Evostik-we of course went down & they narrowly stayed up. In the 5 years since they’ve consolidated in the National, gone full time & got a shiny new stand up at their ground. If we’ve stayed in this league for 5 seasons straight then I envisage that will be us but with their experience they did a number on us last night.

Bromley came with a plan, they executed it pretty much perfectly. Get the early lead, before we've got going and the Jose style, protect it with compact defending within the 18 yard box.

We did have some chances, not many but they were all snuffed out. On a heavy pitch we not unexpectedly tired a little second half, losing Hampo was crucial and Ceesay, was clattered first half and pretty much ineffective after that as was probably injured as carried on. They closed and pressed well, new how to time waste and break our rhythm. Average fulltime team that new how to handle us.

Parky and all of us know we need to get better in the final third, he'll be working on it, if its not from within, then just hope come January he knows whom he wants and we can secure there services unless there's a good loan signing out there to be done.

There was no lack of effort from anyone last night, that's a positive, hopefully at training they can work on stuff to improve the threat/finishing.

Why January? There's no window at this level?

I assumed there was.. My bad. Hopefully we'll get sorted sooner then

Indeed; there's about 4 decent sides left (Notts County, Solihull, Torquay being 3) plus a lot of average well-established clubs clogging up the middle. The introduction of 7-team playoffs gives the real chance of FL promotion to average sides.

Two or three years at this level - without being cherry-picked - and a consistent season can see you in the playoff

I thought we were Conferenced but if we had a decent striker, that might not have been the case. Fis had two decent chances to score and should have buried one of them

The striker problem is arguably the biggest part of our overall shortcomings. We're playing some good stuff until we reach the final third.

This is why we could give Hancock a go up front and move Kosylo to No10, as I think they'd have a similar understanding between 9&10 that we had last season.

I also think Sean Williams should be given a go at No10 when he's back, it's arguably been his strongest position for other clubs previously.

I think we need to be little patient with McDonald - he's jumping up quite a few divisions to play for us so will need time, not to mention better service. I hear PP has been very impressed with his finishing in training so fingers crossed he'll get us goals.

Then we should loan him out like Salmon

Salmon's actually been recalled from his loan after scoring 3 goals in 11 games.

sick of hearing this player that player isnt conf national standard.

Hancock had an appalling anonymous start to the season but we stuck with him and knew he'd adjust.....it takes time to step up a level....look at our slow starts in national north with everyone saying thommo not up to this standard, williams is only evostick quality etc etc.

Kosylo also I thought had an awful start to this season before finding his feet with our play.

Slating certain players and publicly humiliating them as not good enough will hardly improve them as players.....in fact it could ruin them....there's enough mental health problems at the moment isnt there?

I was just commenting on the basis of something said by Brian Flynn
I don't know if MK did come on but was outlining the potential ramifications if he had.

I wasnt able to watch or listen to last nights game but from the comments on here it sounds like Bromley were a very strong, well drilled team and deserved their win.
As for the sending off well its always difficult to appeal unless its a mistaken identity or very clearly an error by the official. Also if our player has gone onto the field of play at the end it will almost certainly increase the ban if the ref includes it in his report, but surely his teammates and the guys on the bench should have stopped him from doing so

Do we even know if MK came back on the pitch at the end? Someone said they hoped he hadn't but that doesn't mean he did. I saw Sutton in extended conversation with the ref at the end of the game but I didn't see Matty at all.

Giving away a soft as early goal set them up nicely.

I know rotation is going to play a big part when playing Sat/Tues (we've played the most games in the league), but I can't help thinking making 2 changes to the back 4 (who were excellent)  from Sat contributed .

I hope we appeal the red

If you don't want to read opinions, I suggest the internet isn't for you

It is a fans forum and an offload for people. I am a person who needs to get things off my chest, otherwise I will sulk all night.
If players aren't playing well and go on fans forum then that is their choice.
