Cracking game at Wembley yesterday, 6th tier Brackley eventually overcoming 5th tier Bromley on penalties after scoring an equaliser with 21 seconds left and then Bromley having a pen to win it through ex-FGR striker Bugiel, but he smashed it way over the bar, followed by the captain slicing onto the post.

Brackley finally scored the winning penalty thanks to their deputy headmaster of a centre back, for whom it may have been his last kick of a football as he's struggling to combine work and part-time football. Honourable mention to Diggin, the road digger, who came off the bench in extra time and scored his penalty as well. I wonder if he and his family are all back on the pneumatic drills today... Half the population of Brackley was there supporting them.

Really good game and you could see how much it meant to all the players, not just another game whilst they're waiting for the next £30k to hit the bank account like the bunch on Saturday.
