That two last seasons were marked by unfortunate events, in the first one, 2010–11, Metalurh main team got relegated from the Ukrainian Premier League for the first time ever since Ukrainian independence. Next season, despite the fact that the main club archived its come back to Ukrainian elite, it was the reserves squad, Metalurh-2, which ended up the season relegated, thus leaving many perspective players such as Bondarenko, which Metalurh was forming for its near future to prepare for the main team, without a solid platform where to play. Eventually this meant many players left the club, among them Bondarenko as well, which joined FC Poltava.

At the end of the season, Metalac was relegated, and Bondarenko stayed with the club playing next season in second level, the Serbian First League.
