Bromley away on Tuesday night on their artificial 3G pitch - after a longer than usual break between games what can Wanderers fans look forward to?

Thought on the likely line up, and of course the obligatory prediction poll!

Can’t see anything but a defeat there. Woody has got them playing some good football, and I just think they will be too good for us. 

Im hoping I am proven wrong

I'll have a Guinness

I actually fancy us to get something from this. The little break should mean we're a bit fresher than them and we will adapt to their pitch much better than most. We're also generally very good at midweek games!

A respectable draw away to an in form Bromley  🤞 

The lack of game at the weekend and the need to bounce back from the Horsham defeat should make for a decent performance from the boys  

Looking forward to seeing us fight for a point and also seeing Charlie Carter get off to a decent Wanderers start too 🐔👏👏

I am optimistic about a draw. 

Bromley are a good side for sure. As well as Cheek up front they have a bunch of loanees from Arsenal I gather who all look to play good football. 

But in our last few away league games the defence has looked really solid and there should be a reaction to the Horsham debacle hopefully. And yes, looking forward to seeing Charlie Carter in action too. 

Let’s hope for a big turn out …

@georges Possibly not even this season. A wrist break can take up to 6 months to heal properly...

Think Marc says up to 4 weeks

Anyone else likely to be returning from injury tomorrow and available for selection?

@adeb Phew! Must be a fairly minor break then. I wonder if we look at an emergency loan for a month as McShane is still a few weeks away.

I think McManus will be back tomorrow and hopefully Moore/Fuller get some minutes.

Gutted re Charlie Carter! He must be too. 
Am beginning to believe that there is some sort of injury jinx that needs exorcising somehow. 

very frustrating

We've seen some gutting ending to games this season - defeat at Chesterfield in 14 mins of added time, home against Rochdale, losing a 2-0 lead 3-2 against Barnet but tonight has to take the biscuit. 

Played well and seriously deserved a point against a good team.

Positives, Mooro getting through 90, the return of a very pacey Niall and all round good organisation.

Let's hope for another good performance on Saturday and maybe it'll finally be our turn to get a bit more than we deserve for once

Man of the match poll is up, if you dont see your choice feel free to mention it in the comments.

Another hard result to take, this time after a really good performance. So unlucky not to come a way with a point. 

But great to see the boys playing out from the back, trying to get down the wings and make things happen, even without JP up front. Defending was excellent against a very good footballing side. Giants too some of them. 

Good to see Mooro back helping things tick. Might just get my vote for MoM but everyone put in a good shift tonight. 

Let’s hope for a similar performance and a bit more luck on Saturday.

@baggy That was the first thing that I noticed, more playing out the back. We are having a hard time with the finally third, but it was good to see that pattern of play. We controlled the game for spells, especially in the 1st half. Blair and Briggsy looked pretty good out in the wings.  Commentators kept praising the game. Felt a draw would have absolutely been fair, but that is why the game has to be played.

Mooro was MoM for me. He looked really good with controlling that midfield and pattern of play. Really good to see him back.

Squad depth is looking really shaky right now. Slav was on the bench (don't get me wrong Slav is great, but when I see him there I am wondering if that many players are down).

Gutted but it was a good performance at least. Moore was excellent, as was Pybus and Josh.

It does look like a foul on Male at the end but I do think he can just catch the ball rather than punch. Seemed an odd decision by him.

Saturday might be a shitshow with Josh Taylor suspended and Francomb picking up an injury. Hopefully Blair is ok as well...
