Bromley (A) Match Thread
« on: December 20, 2023, 08:24:31 AM »

Aside from a couple of moments of quality from CCC that won us the game single-handedly - and given the lessons the mamagement would have learned from Eastleigh / Rochdale - I wouldn't be surprised to see the back three return on Saturday.

When we went to Gateshead we had Lewis Banks at wing back, however (from memory) I don't think Justin Donawa was fully fit, whereas he should be raring to go now.

I still think the management plays Jake Cooper and James Jones the wrong way round - Jake can get bullied a bit in that central role, whereas James' weakness being taken on down the byeline is a penalty / dismissal waiting to happen at any moment. Let's play to theur strengths.

The game should also suit Regan Linney more than Alex Newby:

                    Ross
        Cooper  J.Jones (Roscoe?)  Baines
Donawa (Banks?                           E.Jones
           Marriott  Osborne             
              Conn-Clarke
    Amaluzor                Linney

Donowa wasn't on the bench on Saturday - I hope he hasn't picked up an injury.

Does anyone know if the match will be shown in the CSH?

It's just dawned on me that James Jones wasn't available either.

Given his aerial presence perhaps a game for Sam Roscoe in the middle, and obviously Lewis Banks is capable at right wing back.

Personnel might force us into a back four, so it'll be interesting to see how the management team plays it.

That's a good point... it was a straight red wasn't it. Not doing very well this morning!

If that is indeed the case, I guess we might have to stick with the back four - maybe Linney out on the wing and retaining Marcus Dackers up front?

For a team like Bromley I just feel we probably need a bit more aggression which I think Regan could give us more than Alex on the day.

3 games, but I do recall OK saying they'd look at an appeal. I was at the game, can't see an appeal getting far.

Nope, he's available - don't get me wrong, I like him but I thought it might be a better game for Regan Linney that's all.

Linney up front and Newby in his usual wing spot, with Dackers dropping to the bench for this one, is another option.

The good thing is that we actually do have options now!

Don’t need to give them too much respect, I would play a back 4.

Go toe to toe. Linney gives us more up top than the other strikers, he forces mistakes and is generally just more of a nuisance for defenders.

                       Ross

Banks     Cooper     Baines     E.Jones

             Marriott    Osborne

Amaluzor        CCC       Newby

                    Linney

Subs : Dackers, Kossy, Donawa, J.Jones & Wilson

Since there's no mention of it being shown in the CSH, does anyone know which pubs in the Alty area might have it on TNT?

King George by the ground has been specifically mentioned on the main Facebook fans group. Other pubs in the town centre that normally show football are Libero, Tavern on the Green & the Station. I’d say given Liverpool vs Arsenal also kicks off at 530 then the KG would be your safest bet.

I'll check with the King George, but I'm guessing I'll put my trust in RR.

Looking forward to (hopefully) an explosive display on TNT today.
