We look at the latest list of promotions and relegations and playoff confirmations within the EFL and non league on the 18th of April 2023.
With five minutes of regular time remaining, there was a power-cut at Priestfield, but despite being down to 10-men and losing 2-0 against Gillingham, Leyton Orient were going up with Bradford a goal behind at Swindon, and knew they must win to stop the leaders going up tonight.
The players returned to the dressing rooms with Orient fans holding their phones up in the darkness and singing “we are going up”.
The O’s return to League One after eight years away. They’re seven points ahead of Northampton, but more importantly, were 13 points ahead of Bradford.
Bradford was the only team that could mathematically prevent them from making it into the top three.
Orient saw Omar Beckles sent off for denying a goal-scoring chance. From the resulting penalty, Alex MacDonald scored in the bottom corner of the net to give the Gills the lead.
Gillingham netted a second goal via Cheye Alexander’s penalty, after Idris El Mizouni had been penalised for handball in the aftermath of a MacDonald’s free-kick.
Gillingham won the match and stay up for another season with them and Orient coming back out to play out the time.
O’s fans sing in the dark, as we wait for some kind of word.
As it stands we are up…
