A brace from Jeffrey Cobblah was the difference as East One beat Abohani 2-1 to secure promotion to the Premier Properties Premiership after finishing second in the Regents Lake Championship. With the stakes high, the game was nervy throughout -but cool Cobblah struck twice to send East One to the Premiership.

Joint managers Anam Hoque and Mohammed Habib were singled out for special praise for the way their team had performed during the season. It was also Hoque’s debut season. He said, “The boys have been tremendous throughout and it has been a pleasure managing them. I have learnt a lot and will continue to work with Habib to consolidate a Premiership place next season. Thank you to out Chairman Jamal Hussain and Abzal Ali for all the support.”

Juman Ahmed of East One added, “We showed hunger and determination right from the start of the season and this got us over the line as the last game of the season went to the wire. Although we beat the leaders last week, it wasn’t enough to clinch the title – but our aim was promotion from the go. Much credit goes to the management and our Chairman who worked tirelessly on and off the pitch to get us amongst the big boys next season.”
