MACHEL HEWITT: When these teams locked horns a little over three weeks ago, Bromley emerged with a 3-1 victory. In the three fixtures since, Crawley haven’t won. But that doesn’t necessarily tell the full story.

MACHEL HEWITT: Miles off the pace, the Ravens found themselves 2-0 down at the midway point, yet found enough Christmas spirit in the second half to claw their way to a win, secured in the dying embers by a Ben Thompson winner.
27.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Check the League Two stats tables and you’ll see that Rovers currently rank last for goals per match, second for most goals conceded per match, and have registered the fewest shots on target per match.
25.12.25Matchday
COLIN HEAD: During his tenure, the club got its sense of identity and belief back after some lean years. They reached the FA Cup First Round in 1976, won the Kent Senior Cup in 1977, and secured promotion to the Isthmian League Premier Division in 1980.
23.12.25News
MACHEL HEWITT: Watching the replay back, it is clear that neither official was up with play, so you have to assume their conversation went along the lines of: “Did you see it?” “Not clearly. Did you?” “Not clearly. Play on, no goal.”
23.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: This season, Bromley have made headlines by being the only League Two side with an unbeaten home record, and are one of just five teams in the entire ninety-two to create a blemish-free fortress.
20.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Bromley are the only Category 4 academy in the Premier League Cup. Let that sink in for a moment.
17.12.25News
ANDY HAMMOND: Perhaps the best performance came from the 137 travelling fans, with a special mention for the younger contingent who embraced the fancy dress theme wholeheartedly. How could we lose with Jesus turning up to support us?
15.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: This game will not be easy for Bromley, especially when you consider that all four of the games the Ravens have lost this season have been away from home.
12.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: This performance was a perfect showcase of how Bromley can beat you in myriad ways. Overcoming a lacklustre first half, they found a way to score three goals from three different players and by three different means.
11.12.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Even the most churlish and curmudgeonly among the fanbase surely respect that Neil Smith laid the foundations for where Bromley are now.
09.12.25Matchday
PETER ETHERINGTON: At the weekend, while the second-rounders were putting yet more minutes in their legs on the heavy pitches of December, Hayes Lane stood still. The noise returns on Tuesday night, but the moment of quiet was a gift that perhaps we didn’t know we needed.
08.12.25Features
MACHEL HEWITT: Numerous National League clubs will be shopping for a proven goal-scorer when the winter transfer window opens, and it would be surprising if Marcus Dinanga’s name isn’t on their list.
06.12.25Features
MACHEL HEWITT: Bromley were good value for 60 minutes, and Walsall probably should have been out of the game at half-time. That fact alone should give Bromley some positives to work from.
30.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: With the game being a top-of-the-table clash, will Andy Woodman pack his midfield with the ‘dogs of war’ to garner a robust defensive foothold, or will he spring a surprise?
29.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: It is no secret that opposition managers in League Two consider Bromley one of the hardest teams to play against, and after seventeen league games, that doesn’t look like an exaggeration.
27.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Bromley have set up to be robust at the outset and turn to their ball players in the latter stages, and given the importance of the game, I suspect we will see more of the same.
22.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Bromley's positive start to 25/26 has only served to heighten expectations ahead of the January transfer window, with the main question being: Yes, Bromley are good, but how do they get better?
20.11.25Features
MACHEL HEWITT: This season, Andy Woodman has options on the bench that allow him to play multiple ways, but you still have to make the right changes at the right time. Against Barrow, he did that perfectly
16.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: And so we meet Andy Whing again. Has Andy Woodman come up against any manager more often?
15.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Bromley crashed out of the Vertu Trophy on Tuesday night, but did anyone really care?
12.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Not only did Bromley do the league double over the Dons last season, they shut them out on both occasions, winning 2-0 at Hayes Lane then 1-0 in the reverse fixture at Plough Lane.
11.11.25Matchday
ANDY HAMMOND: He may not have been in the dugout, but this match played out exactly as I imagine Andy Woodman would have scripted it beforehand.
09.11.25Matchday
MACHEL HEWITT: Only two teams lost fewer games last season, and only three conceded fewer goals. That defensive robustness helped Colchester to a 10th-place finish, one place above Bromley and only three points off seventh. In view of that, expectations are naturally high this time round.
