After so many near misses, is this the year Brackley finally manage to haul themselves out of the National League North and into the top non-league tier?
In their top of the table clash today they defeated title rivals Gateshead 1-0 in front of a record league crowd of 1,557. That win extended their unbeaten run to 15 games, eleven of them wins, and also eleven clean sheets in that time.
They are level on points with Gateshead, a game in hand on them, with just eight to play. Kevin Wilkin is doing a grand job at St James Park

I'd love to see them up in the National League proper and hopefully in a few years in the big leagues.

They and Gateshead are so far ahead that they are both already in the playoffs as a minimum.

Add to this that Banbury UTD have just made the National League..North most likely.. A few ex cobblers youth players doing well there. Attendance Saturday Banbury 1800, Brackleys..1400 ish.. Great for the local NL teams

Looks like a complicated set up. Think they play the winner of Chorley and Boston on Saturday or Sunday in the semi and then would be at home to either Flyde, Kidderminister or York in the final. They need to turn their recent form around.

They need Kabamba, Ashley-Seal or Rose to score some goals.

The positions changed a bit in the end..... Boston pipped Kettering to the final place and travel to Kidderminster tonight. The other eliminator was between York and Chorley, played out in front of over 6600 fans last night, the Minstermen took a 2-1 win and therefore travel to Brackley on Saturday.

Brackleys lack of goals caught up with them in the end….a 1-0 home defeat to York ends the Saints dreams for yet another year.

Brackley get through to the semi-finals of Conference League North play-offs - beating Gloucester City in a penalty shoot-out.
Kettering were relegated from the same league.
We need to do better as a county.

Kettering were relegated from the same league.
And Rushden relegated from the Southern League Central Premier Division. Kettering's owner has stepped down and Rushden are running a "Save Our Summer" campaign to help them get the funds to not start dipping into next seasons budget.

Brackley through to the final after a narrow 1-0 win at Chester in front of a crowd of 4,479 (242 Saints fans), they will face Kidderminster at home next week for a place in the National League.

Congratulations to Brackley on a fine win
Like I said a couple of days ago we were in with the Brackley fans on the way up to the cobblers game
The atmosphere the engraved was first class
The chester fans at the end were an embarrassment to the club attacking Brackley fans for no reason throwing flares into the crowd and injuring people as well as stones coins and bottles
Kids were crying a Brackley player even took 1 young supporter to the changing room to keep him safe
Chester deserve huge sanctions

Is the final on TV today?

Found the National League South final, Oxford City v St Albans, so should be okay with the Brackley game. No idea what channel it is?
Got to say seeing the city ground again doesn't bring back pleasant memories.

There are just 22 miles between Oxford City and Brackley yet one is in the Southern final, the other the Northern. I wonder if either ever end up in the other division, the North/South dividing line must lie in between.

Is it finally Brackley's year?
That would be a resounding "No".
