Embarassing.

Was bad enough going away getting drubbed last time we were in the conference and punching above our weight a little against big ex league clubs.

This time we're supposedly better equipped and better funded, and we're getting stuffed by albeit a pretty decent Bromley side.

The worrying thing is, this is more or less our strongest team now. Where do we look to go from here?

To be honest it's [SwearFilter] embarrassing against a part time team irrespective if there in good form, 5.0 is shocking.

Fair play to ashton, pilks, cook and george williams for coming over and shaking hands of the supporters. The rest of them can [SwearFilter] off

Too many players not fitting in well enough.

Or waste substitutions which could be used in the event of a sending off or injury with 45 minutes to go. Depends which way you look at it.
That's always a risk but I'd rather make strong calls to show the players that any really poor showings won't be tolerated & no ones place is assured, feel really sorry for those fans who traveled today :(

****ing embarrassing. How can we be so bad away from home ??
Management need to take a long serious look at themselves. Buck stops there I'm afraid - they pick the team/tactics. I know Bromley's home form is good, but not 5-0.
Not good enough by a million miles !!!!!

Come on Garry, we all know this squad is not good or consistant enough to get us into the play off places.
Mid to just above the relegation places at best.
Not being funny Ken but who mentioned playoffs? There is no doubt we are not either good enough or consistent enough for that to be realistic but there is also no doubt that there is something wrong with Edmo and the rest of the coaching staffs ability to get these players performing at least to their capability often enough. What that problem is, I don't know but it clearly exists. Why the change in the team again today? As I said Williams could have played Tuesday but didn't. Symington did nothing Wrong yet left out, seemingly for the sake of rotating. These are non league players, who need to playing in a settled team, which might surprisingly mean they actually do perform more consistently.

I really don't think any of us know. Every season in the conference since I can remember we have been on the receiving end of these kind of drubbings. It's par for the course.

National League full-times...

Macclesfield 2-1 Kidderminster
Aldershot 2-0 Altrincham
Boreham Wood 2-0 Welling (Welling down to 10 men)
Braintree 0-0 Grimsby
Bromley 5-0 Barrow
Chester 2-3 Lincoln City
Dover 2-1 Wrexham
Forest Green 3-0 Guiseley
Gateshead 1-1 Cheltenham
Halifax 0-3 Woking
Southport 0-1 Torquay
Tranmere 1-2 Eastleigh (both down to 10 men)L

Forest Green win extending their lead to 5 points at the top 3-0 against Guiseley and are unbeaten in 3.
Tranmere slumped to their second home defeat of the season 0-2 against Eastleigh, both teams ended the game with 10 men.
Winless Kidderminster appointed former Forest Green manager Dave Hockaday this week, his first result in charge a 2-1 defeat at Macclesfield.

Next up Tranmere away, batton down the hatches.

This is indeed about consistency, but I think it was10 out of 11 who started against Chester (and showed some good signs) started again today. Changing the right back for a like for like player should not have altered anything about our game today.
