Match day is here again and this time Ian Burchnall's men travel south to visit Bromley FC's Hayes Lane. Bromley's pitch is an artificial '3g' affair and IB has been praying for rain in order to speed up the surface to aid Notts' passing game. It is a pretty big pitch at this level though, although 4 yards narrower and 4 yards shorter than Meadow Lane's.
With Bromley currently occupying 4th place in the league table this is not a fixture to be taken lightly. They're 5 points ahead of us, having played two more games to date. Our opponents currently boast the National League's best home record, with 9 wins and only 2 defeats so far this term. Conversely, Notts' away record sees us in 10th place with just 4 wins thus far.
On a blustery day let's hope the Mighty 'Pies can turn on the style and lay the ghost of the Wealdstone disappointment mid-week. The games are going to come thick and fast from here on in and a three point boost would go a long way to cementing Notts' title challenge.
Team news is expected at 2:00pm and Charlie and Stall's BBC Radio Nottingham commentary can be found online here
