History

Early years

Bromley Football Club was founded in 1892 and in the first season played friendly games against mainly local opposition sides. Their first competitive football came in the South London League, which was won at the first attempt. However, they moved frequently between Leagues in those early days. Two seasons in the Southern Football League were followed by a spell in the London League, winning the Division Two title in 1897. For other uses, see Southern Football League (disambiguation). ... The London League was a football competition that was held in the London and Essex area of England from at least 1896, and at least until 1923. ...


After a brief interlude in the Kent League, they returned to the London League but were expelled in 1900. They then competed in the Spartan League, and after winning the title in 1908, they had their first spell in the Isthmian League and won the Championship in each of their first two seasons. After the First World War they joined the Athenian League, winning the title in 1923. The Kent League is an English football league in Kent and south east London. ... The Spartan South Midlands Football League is an English football league covering north London and parts of the Home Counties. ... The Isthmian League is a regional football league covering London and South East England. ... The Athenian League was an English amateur football league in and around London. ...


Although the 1930s were successful on the Cup front, League honours eluded them until 1949 when they lifted the Athenian League Championship, to go with the FA Amateur Cup. Three years later they rejoined the Isthmian League, and again made an immediate impact finishing runners up at the first attempt, and going one better in 1954, reversing the previous season's six point margin over Walthamstow Avenue, who were again runners up when Bromley were Champions again in 1961. The FA Amateur Cup was an English football competition. ... Walthamstow Avenue F.C. was a London football club, founded in 1900. ...


The following season they had only two clubs below them, and in thirteen subsequent seasons only twice finished in the top half, culminating in relegation in 1975, the second time they had finished bottom.


They were promoted in 1980, and during an up and down period they went down again in 1984, came back up two years later and were runners up to Yeovil Town in 1988 - the highest league position for over 25 years - before being relegated for a third time two years later. Regaining Premier Division status at the first attempt, they remained in the top flight until 1999 when, after their best start to a season for many a year - 13 points out of the first five games - they only won four of the remaining 37 League games, and as a consequence were relegated for the fourth time since promotion and relegation was introduced. Yeovil Town F.C. are an English football team based in Yeovil, Somerset. ...


Recent years

Their latest spell in the lower division saw them finish in 9th, 18th, 19th, 6th and 8th positions in the league table up until 2004. Between 1999 and 2001 two managers resigned before Stuart McIntyre took over the reigns for the first time towards the end of October 2001. Despite starting the season strongly, McIntyre decided to step down in October 2003. He returned in early 2004 to steady the ship, after being asked back by chairman, Jerry Dolke, but a good finish to the campaign failed to prevent Bromley from just missing out on the restructuring play-off spot.


The 2004/05 season began well with memorable FA Cup wins over Fisher Athletic and Sutton United and a strong showing in the league before results tailed off through November and December and McIntyre was relieved of his duties. The club acted quickly to fill the void and asked a familiar face to take over. George Wakeling accepted the offer and just before Christmas 2004 returned to the job which he had left in 1999. His first job was to appoint his former captain and crowd favourite, Frank Coles as assistant manager. This article is about the English FA Cup. ... Fisher Athletic F.C. are a semi-professional football club fromsouth London. ... Sutton United Football Club is an English football team currently playing in the Conference South league. ...


From the beginning of 2005 the manager's role was shared between Wakeling and former Carshalton Athletic boss, Billy Smith. The new management team provided the impetus required for a climb back up the table and Bromley went on to finish 4th, claiming a place in the end of season play-offs. Metropolitan Police were dispatched on penalties after a tense semi-final to earn a trip to Horsham where Bromley secured their return to the Premier Division with a 3-1 victory. Carshalton Athletic F.C. is a semi-professional football club based in Surrey, England. ... Metropolitan Police F.C. are the football club of the Metropolitan Police Service, although in recent years there has been a relaxation in the rule that players had to be serving members of the police force. ... Horsham F.C. is a football club based in England. ...


The most recent season, 2005-06, saw Bromley's return the Premier Division, and a safe mid-table position was secured. There was a period in the season where relegation was a brief threat but a strong end of season run, culminating with winning the Kent Senior Cup, staved off any danger.


Towards the end of the 2005-06 campaign, chairman Jerry Dolke made the surprise announcement that the management team who had put Bromley in such a good position would be replaced especially when Dolke's brother-in-law, former Crystal Palace chairman, Mark Goldberg was announced as the replacement. Crystal Palace Football Club is an English professional football team based in the London Borough of Croydon. ... Mark Goldberg is the current manager of Bromley, an English association football club currently playing in the Isthmian League Premier Division. ...


Talk of in-house favours, as Goldberg is Bromley chairman Jerry Dolke's brother-in-law, were rife with Billy Smith saying: "It's not a football decision why we've been sacked, it's a family decision." [citation needed]


The new management team is Goldberg as boss, Murray Jones as assistant manager and former Crystal Palace F.C. and Millwall F.C. star Bobby Bowry as player coach, and they inherit a developing side. Crystal Palace Football Club is an English professional football team based in the London Borough of Croydon. ... Millwall Football Club are an English professional football team based at the New Den Stadium in Bermondsey, South East London. ... Robert Bowry (born May 19, 1971 in Croydon, England) is a professional English born Kittian footballer currently playing for Isthmian League Premier Division side Bromley where he plays as a midfielder and is also a coach. ...


2006/07 Season

From the beginning of the 2006-07 campaign, Bromley dominated the Ryman Premier with wins against Staines Town, Ramsgate, Worthing, East Thurrock United and Harrow Borough, not to mention emphatic victories at Hampton & Richmond Borough (4-0), and against Ashford Town (5-1) and Slough Town (4-0), leaving the Lilies at the top of the table. Staines Town FC are a Non-League football team located in Staines, Surrey, England. ... Ramsgate Football Club used to be known as Ramsgate Athletic, until 1976, when the club changed its name after voluntary liquidation. ...

On October 28, 2006, Bromley reached the first round proper of the FA Cup after beating Grays Athletic 2-1 at the Recreation Ground, but were beaten 4-1 by League One side Gillingham. Grays Athletic Football Club are a football team from the south east of England, representing the small town of Grays, Essex. ... For the team based in Dorset, see Gillingham Town F.C. Gillingham Football Club is an English professional football club based in the town of Gillingham, Kent, currently playing in the Football League One. ...


The start of 2007 bought a number of less than impressive results for Bromley, but as of March onwards, matches picked up. The Easter Weekend came with a 3-1 victory over Ramsgate F.C, Easter Monday resulted in a 2-1 win over Carshalton Athletic. Bromley's highest league win this season came with an 8-0 win over bottom side Slough FC, pushing Bromley onto top spot. From this point on there were only two games left, which were both won by Bromley, but Hampton & Richmond's two games in hand meant that Bromley were relying on the other team to slip up. With Hampton & Richmond's last game being at already-relegated Slough, Bromley's championship dream was not to be, and the play-offs beckoned. Easter Week is the week beginning with the Christian feast of Easter and ending a week later on Easter Saturday. ... Easter Monday is the day after Easter Sunday and is celebrated as a holiday in some largely Christian cultures. ... Carshalton Athletic F.C. is a semi-professional football club based in Surrey, England. ... Slough Town F.C. is an English football (soccer) club. ...


06/07 Play-Offs

With the last league match of the season on April 28th, Bromley beat Boreham Wood 2-0, securing second place in the league, handing the team home advantage in the promotion play-offs. On Tuesday 1 May 2007, Bromley beat AFC Wimbledon 1-0 with a header from Nic McDonnell in front of a sell-out, season-record crowd of 3,429. On Saturday 5 May 2007 Bromley defeated Billericay Town 4-2 on penalties after a 1-1 draw. Winning the play-off final means that Bromley F.C. will be competing in the Blue Square Southern next season. Wimbledon (full name AFC Wimbledon) is a semi-professional English football club, affiliated to both the London and Surrey FAs, and representing the area of Wimbledon in south London. ...


Cup exploits

Bromley won the FA Amateur Cup three times, the third being in 1949 when a then record crowd of 96,000 watched them beat Romford in the first Wembley final. In 1911 they beat Bishop Auckland at Herne Hill, and in 1938 were victors over Erith & Belvedere in the only all-Kent final. All three Finals were won by the same 1-0 scoreline, and the goal in each game was scored by the player wearing the number 8 shirt. The FA Amateur Cup was an English football competition. ...

Erith & Belvedere F.C. are a football club based in the London Borough of Bexley,Greater London, England. ...


Since entering the FA Trophy in 1974 - following the cessation of the Amateur Cup - they had not gone beyond the Second Round until season 2000-2001 when they reached the Third Round after the competition had been revamped. They have reached the Second Round of the FA Cup three times, with First Round appearances on a further six occasions, but the appearance in the competition proper in 1996 was their first in 19 years. However, it would be another ten years before the same feat was achieved, when Bromley travelled to Gillingham in November 2006, having upset the odds to defeat full-time Conference side Grays 2-1 in the previous round. Two late goals led to a 4-1 defeat, which was slightly flattering to the home side. The Football Association Challenge Trophy is an English football competition for clubs playing in the Football Conference, Southern League, Isthmian League, and Northern Premier League. ...


They have won the Kent Senior Cup six times, with the trophy staying at Hayes Lane for the previous two years. A dramatic 3-2 extra time victory over Conference National side Gravesend & Northfleet on April 27, 2006, was repeated the following year, when Isthmian league rivals Tonbridge Angels were defeated 3-1 at Hayes Lane on Tuesday 24th April 2007, in front of a crowd of 926. They have also won the Kent Amateur Cup on twelve occasions. The London Senior Cup has been won on forty-six occasions, most recently beating Ford United in 2003's final, with the London Challenge Cup coming to Hayes Lane in 1996.

Ground

After playing at White Hart Field, Widmore Road and Plaistow Cricket Ground, Bromley moved to Hayes Lane - some 300 yards from their present ground - which was purchased in 1938. They had to leave the ground when fire destroyed the main stand in October 1992, but returned in September 1993. The record attendance stands at 10,798 for a game against Nigeria in 1949, but the capacity is now much reduced.


The start of the 2006-07 season saw ground improvements which had been underway throughout the summer completed. The new bar opens, which combines with the old one previously used. The stand has a new board room, new cafe, and lift system. Two new five-a-side football pitches have also been constructed along with a new club shop. The end of 2006 also came with the news that Bromley had fully purchased the land in which the club is built on, giving the club room to build on their stadium.


Rumours have also started about new building work to extend the current stand and an addition of another bar-replacing the old one-which will be similar style to one constructed during the Summer of 2006. Note none of this information has been confirmed by the club.
