Goldberg sets Lilywhites points target

Bromley manager Mark Goldberg has outlined the importance of his side’s second half to the season as the Lilywhites look to avoid the peril of relegation.
Saturday’s 2-1 defeat to neighbours Farnborough extended Bromley’s woeful run to 12 games without a win as the Kent-based club continue their slide down the Blue Square bet South table. In wake of Saturday’s narrow defeat, Goldberg has set a target of 28 points from the Lilywhites remaining 21 games to ensure safety. Speaking to the Bromley Times Goldberg said, “We’re targeting 28 points from our remaining games and I think 47 should be enough to see us safe.”
The defeat to Farnborough did show signs of improvements and but for a dubious penalty decision, Bromley would have escaped with a well deserved point. Goldberg continued, “We are showing signs of improvement but we’re not getting the rub of the green at the moment.”
With the winter months drawing in and games coming thick and fast one thing that all managers look for is consistency and Goldberg is no different. He added, “We can’t afford any more slip-ups and we’ve got to consistently put points on the board in the second half of the season.”
Bromley’s next assignment is a double header over the Christmas holidays against newly promoted Tonbridge Angels. The Angels currently sit mid-table and will look to add to the gloominess as they make the short trip to Hayes Lane.
