Bromley looked a good side to start, being fit and well-organised and passing the ball about well, but Dover took the lead on 23 minutes when Steve Cuggy lashed a penalty in off the crossbar.

Five minutes later Tim Dixon crossed for Paul Chambers to score with a glancing header. Ten minutes into the second half an intended clearance hit Chambers in the belly and rebounded into the goal for number three.

Bromley put Dover under considerable pressure in the second half (40 minutes each way), and they pulled a goal back when Tony Dolby scored a penalty.

*Lpic1*Dover missed some good chances on the break; Chambers was unlucky with a 20-yard volley that dipped inches over the bar. Andy Hessenthaler was sandwiched as he was running through with only their ‘keeper to beat, but the referee only gave a free kick.

The fourth goal came three minutes from the end when Hessenthaler crossed for Cuggy to head in off a post.

Dover played well and were deserved winners against a Bromley side that had won the Isthmian Veterans Cup the last two seasons.

*BS*Team:*BF* Maurice Munden, Mark Patterson, Gary Miller, Tony Dixon, Tim Dixon, Paul Chambers, Scott Lindsey, Andy Hessenthaler, Steve Cuggy, Colin Blewden, Russell Milton. Subs. Tony MacDonald and Brian Frampton.

The draw for the semi-finals is yet to be made.

*BS*DOVER ATHLETIC today completed the signing of Australian-born central defender Daniel Leach on a one-month loan deal from League Two club Barnet.

*BF*Leach, 24, is a left-footed player and will go straight into the starting XI for tomorrow’s Blue Square south clash with Bath.

Whites boss Andy Hessenthaler said: “Daniel is a very cultured player, has good pedigree and is a true pro.

“The lad is a very chirpy Aussie and comes highly recommended from Ian Hendon, the Barnet manager. Darren Hare has watched him and was very impressed.

“He’s made a few appearances for Barnet but the boy needs regular matches under his belt and Ian is happy for him to come to Crabble for more experience.

“Unfortunately Matty Fish has done his back so Daniel will step straight in against Bath. I felt we needed a left footed player and Daniel fits the bill.

“We’ve been after Daniel for quite a while but Ian has had a few injuries at Barnet, which delayed the deal going through. It’s for one month initially but there may be a chance of extending that if all goes well.

“Daniel comes in at just the right time for us, with a lot of important games coming up, as we hit the business end of the season.”
