Player ratings

Nobody could get near Che Gardner

Successful dribbles: 31. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Mickel Miller in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Bromley this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Kamarni Ryan takes the honours

Marked 7.94 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Bromley had the best player on the pitch.

Boardroom

Wages eat 95% of everything Bromley earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad

Sean Somade falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Bromley and Barrow AFC take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Market

Bromley sell their best player to Ferencvaros

$7.9M is a serious amount of money and it does not play centre-forward. Everybody in the dressing room knows who used to be looked at when it went wrong.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Che Gardner

Successful dribbles: 32. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The terraces

Bromley sell a favourite for $7.9M

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Alex Matos was one of the reasons people came, and $7.9M does not replace that by itself.

Market

Bromley turn down Independiente Medellin for Harry Pinnell

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Valentin Joseph in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Bromley this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Julen Azkue falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Mitch Pinnock 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.

Boardroom

Wages eat 100% of everything Bromley earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Match

Valentin Joseph rescues a point for Bromley

It needed Valentin Joseph to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Cheltenham Town, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.
