at Hayes Lane

 
YOU could tell it was going to be a special occasion when the merest hint of a rainbow emerged to welcome the nation’s newest league team, following a brief sprinkling of rain in deepest south London on Tuesday evening.

Hayes Lane, Bromley was the scene. 

Where Andy Woodman’s Ravens hosted AFC Wimbledon in the first round of the League Cup. It also happened to be their maiden home game as a league side in this welcoming club’s 132-year history.
