Bromley Finished a Quiet 11th in League Two. A Year Later, They Were Champions
No one was talking about Bromley during this period. By the time these accounts were filed, everyone was.
These accounts cover Bromley's 2024 calendar year, a period spanning most of the 2024-25 season, in which the club finished 11th in League Two under Andy Woodman, an unremarkable mid-table campaign in what was then only their second season in the Football League.
Turnover grew by around 32% to close to £5m, one of the smaller revenue bases anywhere in the Football League, reflecting Bromley's rapid rise from non-league football rather than any promotion push during this particular period.
A pre-tax loss of around £1m was modest by League Two standards, and net assets in deficit at around £6m reflect the cost of establishing Football League infrastructure at a club that spent decades outside it before winning promotion via the National League play-offs in 2024.
None of these figures hinted at what was coming. Bromley's quiet mid-table finish in this period gave no indication of the title-winning campaign the club would produce the very next season.
For a club with one of the smallest budgets in the Football League, a comfortable mid-table finish in only their second season back in it was itself a solid platform, even before the following year's fairy tale arrived.
Bromley won the League Two title in 2025-26, their first-ever fourth-tier championship, and are competing in League One for the 2026-27 season.
Bromley's quiet mid-table finances in this period were the calm before one of the most remarkable title wins English football's lower leagues have produced in years.
