When the fixtures were published back in July even the most optimistic of fans from either of these sides probably wouldn’t have looked at this game and thought it would be a potential title decider, but that’s how it has transpired.
The league leaders Boreham Wood travel to Hayes Lane to take on second placed Bromley for an Easter Saturday clash that will go a long way to settling who goes up automatically to the Conference Premier.
The Hertfordshire side leady by a point having played a game more than The Ravens, but more importantly they are in decent form whereas Mark Goldberg’s side have only won one of their last five games, having let in last minute equalisers in two and lost to the league’s bottom side at home.
Helped by funding from Arsenal Ladies Boreham Wood have assembled a strong squad boosted by the arrival of Darryl McMahon from Ebbbsfleet in January and have recorded three 1-0 victories in their last four games giving an indication of how solid defensively they are.
For Bromley home advantage means very little having suffered seven of their eight league defeats at Hayes Lane this season, but the fans have issued a rallying cry on the forum to boost the atmosphere and get behind the side as they do for away games.
The Ravens now have a virtually fully fit squad to pick from and it will be interesting to see what side the manager choses to go with for this make or break match.
