Bromley Secure Promotion into Football League

04 May 2024

Everybody at 1000GBP.com, and indeed across the non-league football family, sends a big congratulations to Bromley FC who triumphed over Soluhull Moors FC in the National League Play Off Final.

Bromley won 4-3 on penalties to secure a dramatic promotion to the English Football League for the first time in the club's 132-year history. Club captain Byron Webster scored the deciding penalty to extend his 100% winning record at Wembley Stadium to four matches.

Bromley twice led through top goalscorer Michael Cheek, who rolled the ball into the bottom corner to open the scoring. Joe Sbarra hit back shortly after half-time before Cheek won and scored a penalty to put his side back in front. Solihull captain Jamey Osbourne equalised for the Moors again to send the tie into extra-time, with Ravens substitute Alex Kirk twice hitting the woodwork as neither side could find the winner. 

The Moors got off to the worst start possible in the penalty shootout with Bromley goalkeeper Grant Smith saving from Tyrese Shade and Joss Labadie, but Nick Hayes denied Ashley Charles to keep Solihull in contention. They scored their next three but Webster stepped up to net his side's fourth and send Bromley up to League Two.
