The Bromley Courier
Boardroom7 Sep 2026
Deadline passes with 18 signed and 16 gone
That is the business done at Bromley until the window opens again. Whether it was enough will be answered on Saturdays rather than in a column, and the first Saturday is close.
Squad7 Sep 2026
Words exchanged at Bromley
Zak Sturge and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
Squad7 Sep 2026
Zak Sturge has outgrown this division
There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Bromley know it, and so does everybody who watches him.
Squad7 Sep 2026
A step back for Mickel Miller at Bromley
Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.
Squad7 Sep 2026
Marcin Wodecki stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Marcin Wodecki and Bromley agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
Market7 Sep 2026
Still no ink between Bromley and Liam Mandeville
“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Bromley, another week without a signature from Liam Mandeville.
Market7 Sep 2026
Bromley bring in an old head
Marcin Wodecki is 38 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.
The dugout7 Sep 2026
Jonathan Haftom gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.
Market7 Sep 2026
Bromley bring in Zak Sturge on loan
A season-long audition: Millwall still own him, but the shirt and the minutes are Bromley's to give. A loan is a bet both clubs believe they are winning.
In brief
- Market Window shut, Brooklyn Ilunga still here
- Looking ahead Looking ahead: Walsall at home
- The dugout The manager comes out for Mitch Pinnock
