BRACKNELL TOWN concluded a memorable league season by finishing as runners-up after their away win at Plymouth Parkway.

The Robins scored the first goal of the game through Mickel Platt to give them a 1-0 lead at half-time.

The hosts replied to make it 1-1 just after the hour mark, but Bracknell ensured they would go back with all three points as George Knight restored their advantage and Darryl Sanders netted deep into stoppage time to settle the game and seal a 3-1 win.

Bracknell finish the league campaign in second on 90 points, just three points behind league champions Weston-super-Mare.

It has been a remarkable season full of highlights for Bracknell which included a glamour tie in the FA Cup earlier this campaign against League One Ipswich Town.

The Robins gave a fantastic account of themselves to keep the Tractor Boys at bay for more than an hour before Ipswich went on to win the tie 3-0.

However, Bracknell carried that spirit and desire throughout their league journey under the management duo of Carl Withers and Jamie McClurg.

The management pair were appointed by Bracknell September having done an exceptional job with Binfield FC which saw them win promotion and take the team to the FA Vase final in 2021.

After previous boss Bobby Wilkinson left Bracknell to join Weymouth, Withers and McClurg took the reins and have helped Bracknell to complete a superb season with the chance of promotion still up for grabs in the play-offs.

Bracknell Town co-manager Carl Withers said: “What a group. Second place confirmed, 100 goals scored with everyone of these lads playing their part and we’re not done yet. Thank you to our loyal Robins, you really do make a difference and have done all season but we need one more push.

Co-manager Jamie McClurg added: “Great result and once again these men gave us a well earned result to finish our league fixtures.

“A fantastic group of personalities on and off the pitch with an amazing fan base who give us everything. Thank you for travelling and onto the playoffs we go together.”

The Robins will now play in the play-off semi-finals on Wednesday against Chesham United.

Their opponents finished in sixth position in the division on 79 points.
