1 sub daisy. Sammy out healy out and emergency signing from academy starts. Conference refused any other signings. Wankers of the highest order in birmingham. Despite us having only ten able to play and payment plan with hmrc.

We are going to struggle tonight I think with the team we've got, but I'm sure it won't be through lack of trying from our players.
Starting 11: Walker, Coyle, Bellamy, Acheampong, Andrews, Parkinson, Fazakerley, Clarke, Cumbers, Pugh, Farrell.
Sub: Day

COYW!

just had the ball in the net, but the ref had already blown for offside.
We're the better team so far, but again can't translate it into clear chances and goals.

One nil to Bromley. Scored from a corner, which we did not defend well.
Looks like the same story as the last couple of home matches: dominating the match and ending up a goal down.

Half time one all.

Acheampong playing very well.

Hope we get no injuries, no sign of jamie day.....

Two one Welling. Lovely strike from Parky from just inside the box.

floodlight failure with 4 to go...

lights seem to be slowly coming on!

Please no, not something else we have to pay for!!

Match abandoned.

On the plus side extra revenue for the club. Cue the conspiracy theories.....

Fantastic performance from the team. I'm off to bed absolutely gutted.

Must get in touch with my Malasian bookmaker in the morning, think I said match abandoned with about 2 to go

87.30 played

Why they had about 80 fans there, Play the game at Welling or give us 3 points simple.

And i personally think all pay again, 88 mins of football, why the **** should bromley get a bean? Its our home game.

None of this free entry or shared gate.... PLEASE!!!

If we get say 600 in for the replayed game, thats going to give us 6 weeks of the grand a week we have been losing and ensure the players get paid (im including bar. shop, programmes etc in that) . Very poor turn out from Bromley today about 50 behind the goal and a very few in the stand, IF you make it free, loads of them will turn up and support their team, another negative against us.
We need every penny we can get, do league rules state after half time no refunds? Well the conference are so good at screwing us with league rules and their weird decisions... lets stick to them and earn money out of it and get a little bit back.

ALL PAY... If Bromley had a few hundred there tonight. i can half see why you would make it free, cant see how on earth it can be shared, thats just a farce its a home game.

I really cant see why the replayed game isnt of 2.30 and 3 minutes injury time if they (conference) want to share the gate or make it free entry... sorry but sod em. but they came for a draw had a nosebleed if they got in our half and remember the added time is THEIR SUBS, we werent allowed any....

I cant see bromley getting a coach to be fair, As Ash said last night, its time the conference used a bit of common sense.

First things first theres no doubt which team most wanted to win. We looked a decent mid table side with little to play for, you played like you were fighting for promotion or survival. I was worried when I found out you had no subs, as that sort of thing can give a siege mentality & it certainly did. Id have been proud to have been a Welling fan watching that performance. At least the lights gave us Bromley fans something to smile about, as we didnt get too much from the team.

I was by the Bromley officials & they said they thought it would have to be replayed & we get a % of the receipts. Regardless of performance, we were one goal down, & if our midfield actually managed to pass the ball forwards in the last few mins, the result may have changed. 2 or more goals behind is another story (morally if not legally) & I would have no objection if Bromley had agreed for the result to stand in that instance.

I think the cut of the gate receipts is a fair procedure even if in this instance its negligible travel involved. Luckily we only had to travel 20mins or so, & we as fans get no benefit at all from any cut of the receipts as we all have to pay another £11. But if you put yourselves in say Westons shoes, the costs of a coach a 2nd time would be pretty high so why should the opposition pay again & you get the benefits of a 2nd gate income & it was your fault the game was abandoned. I use the word fault loosely whilst we can wonder about a conspiracy theory of the lights failing when youve got major financial concerns, if you can keep the players fit, youre more likely to get an extra game or 2 via play offs if you play like that, so no reason to pull the plug out last night. But at the same time, if there's no rule about sharing the gate, whats to stop a club doing that on purpose when theyre in financial trouble? I dont believe for one second any true Welling fan would have wanted that to happen, but a cash-strapped board might like the idea of an extra home game, so something needs to be in place to prevent it.

Anyway, look forward to another battle at Welling when hopefully all our team will be awake this time, & genuinely hope you have some subs next time as you might not play with the same mentality as last night!

Nuneaton v Worcester about 4 years ago, lights failed 5 mins left... Match replayed conference set entry and after expenses gate receipts shared. Stalybridge v Southport lights failed 83 mins match replayed.

Cretinous rule, bromley are local what if they want to book a coach when they didnt have one last night?
