It is a popular misbelief that there is a first time for everything. But there are, undoubtedly, first times for some things. And, come August, that will be the case for Bromley. After 132-years of under-the-radar existence, they will contest the English Football League.
Some things even happen more than once. The Bromley goalkeeper, Grant Smith, for example, has rounded off a season by exiting the National League before. Yet whereas 12 months back, Smith was falling down the relegation snake with Yeovil, a pair of penalty shootout saves – first from Tyrese Shade and then Josh Labadie – gave Bromley a firm foot up the promotion ladder.
