Alan Dunne arrived at the Yeomans Community Stadium with an excellent reputation, largely built on his work at Bromley FC, where he was an integral part of The Ravens’ recent success.

Prior to that, the 43-year-old earned cult status at Millwall where he played almost 400 senior games. Joining the youth set up aged ten, he rose through the ranks to become first team captain and club legend, known for his committed and no-nonsense approach.

After a spell at Leyton Orient he joined Bromley in 2017 where he made 38 appearances before being promoted into Andy Woodman’s management team. He was Woodman’s assistant from 2021-25, and played a pivotal and inspirational role as Bromley won promotion into the EFL. While at Bromley, Dunne won acclaim for his methodical, detailed approach and tactical know-how.
