Staines

[bromley]

Really really looking forward to this one. If possible I think an unchanged side from Tuesday. Without getting complacent i'm going with a 7-0 win

What do you lot think?

[rich]

Whooaaaa there, complacency you said it, i would be happy with a 1-0 win via a shinned in goal from 2 yards. Tuesday notwithstanding our home form hasn't been A1 this season so attitude and concentration will be paramount tomorrow but I'm loving your enthusiasm bromley and I too am very much looking forward to the match. In There

[simples]

Agreed Rich, any sort of win will do, avoid any injuries, and with one or two absentees getting close to a return (PJD, Cookie) we can go into the final push for the title with confidence. Come on Bromley!

[col]

I'll take a 1-0.
An early goal to ease the nerves is in order.

[mattphillips]

Three points, don't care what the score is.
Hopefully a good crowd Saturday, early goal would settle nerves also with staines being bottom could open the floodgates, but like stated previously a lucky 1-0 would be just as good.

[cliff]

There has to be a point where belief and form outweighs the caution mentioned above. Our strong position in the league and Staines dire one should spell a rout. I for one would expect at least a 4 goal victory - hoping to scrape a 1 goal victory is just under-selling our abilities and expectations. There should be very few nerves, this is an absolute home banker

[wappingboy]

Whoooa Cliff. Concentration is paramount. Despite Staines being bottom and we trounced them 6-0 at theirs, this is not a banker. I believe if we beat them they will be relegated, so I expect them to come out giving it their all. On paper yes we should win, but in this league anything can happen.

[simples]

I think the cautious views expressed here are more a reflection of the fans nerves, as we know how close we are now to achieving our goal. The players will probably go out there tomorrow and smash it and we'll wonder what the fuss was all about come 5pm!

Some things never change!

They can't afford to be complacent but I'm after another big victory to better Boreham Wood's +/- and put even more pressure on them.

If Basingstoke lose down in Brighton, a victory puts us 9 clear of them with just 18 more points up for grabs.

Touching distance... and touching cloth.

BROOOOOOOOM

[cliff]

Sorry to disagree Wappingboy and I'm old enough to know football's a funny old game, but in betting terms this is a Banker. Staines have got 2 points out of the last 30 (I didn't go back further) and the net GD between our 2 clubs is 72. I'll donate £5 to Comic Relief if we win by at least 4 goals and £10 if we don't

[lionofglencoe]

I think we will win 8-0.

Bradley is due a hatrick and Slaber is buzzing and Moses needs one and Louis is due.

Believe we will be promoted on Easter Monday.

[will]

As long as we are not complacent, one would expect us to win. I'm sure if Staines are destined to be relegated tomorrow they won't want it to be without a fight. Nevertheless it's a gilt edged chance to put ourselves 3 points closer to what we're aiming for and boost our GD at the same time and even if the latter doesn't happen, the former should not be in question. As Col says though, an early goal would be very useful to settle any pre-match nerves, but I'm sure after Tuesday there will be good morale in the squad.

[robinhood]

its the players that score big goals in big games that impress me, and frankly brad has done no such thing, pjd has always scored big goals in big games, nicking the 5th goal in a five nil victory is fools gold,

[gazza]

On a different sort of subject see both bars are closing early again tomorrow denying as a chance to celebrate victory!!!!!

Moses opened the scoring on Tuesday. The big game players score the vital goals that change games.

[bromley]

By the way it was a tongue in cheek thing when I said 7-0, I know in football anything can happen. I did put the wink face to insinuate it was a joke.

[mikeyh]

It really should be a win but these big score predictions could be wide of the mark ,just because we won big there it does not mean we will again (Hope we do obviously) who remembers Thurrock a few years back slaughtered them at the Lane Boxing Day then lost the return game a week later .I would take any win ,goal difference would be a bonus ,we are in the box seat for sure but plenty of hard work to do yet .

[crouchm]

Ye people of bromley. Roll up to Hayes lane. A big day to be had! Come on you Lillywhites!

Not a great message to send to loyal supporters at the end of what could be a title-winning season, is it Gaz? Our money not good enough??

Just waiting for the inevitable rejoinder from a fifth columnist, with #wearebromley tagged on the end.

Careful, Capt you will soon be agreeing with me about the contempt in which the club treats the supporters.

[simples]

I see they've graciously left The Venue open 'til 6pm for us fans, maybe we should mob up in there after the game and stage a sit down protest, Capt could lead us in a spot of communal singing 'we shall, we shall not be moved'. Alternatively we can go to 'Spoons for £2.50 a pint.

[theoptimist]

Or we could stop whining about everybody and everything, just go and support our club both on and off the pitch?!? :-) Come on Bromley!!

[simples]

Controversial! I might just give it a try ? Up the Ravens!

[bromley]

I personally couldn't give a flying **** about what time the bar closes, when and how long the video highlights are, I just want the team to perform and win!!!!!!

I rest my case !

[crouchm]

Hells bells! Another banana skin we fell over. I'm sure the blinkered loyalists will bleet if any flack is fired towards players or management. But come on our home form is pony and could cost us dear. It's a case of get three points at Bath next week. I'm going home to kick the dog!

[bromley]

Wow. Didn't see that coming, full credit to Staines, fantastic performance with some unbelievable defending. Second half we gave it a real go. Onto the next one now.

[mattphillips]

No complaints with the result, sure the players will be gutted, commitment was there, it's what football is all about with these results when on paper should be only one winner.
Tough game next week, enjoy the ride!

[bromleyboy1999]

Typical home game. Shame we couldn't take our chances otherwise it would've been a fairly easy win. Does anyone know who their no 3 is? While I respect their keeper for having a smile on his face and taking the banter in(class saves too) the no 3 was kinda aggressive. He began to shout at us after slabber got injured and at the final whistle mocked the crowd instead going to the loyal staines fans. Utter prick.
