Relegation confirmed for Eastbourne Borough - 46 photos from Tonbridge Angels clash that sealed fate

It was the afternoon when relegation out of the National League South was confirmed for Eastbourne Borough.

A combination of the Sports’ 1-1 draw with Tonbridge Angels on a sunny Easter Monday at Priory Lane and Farnborough’s win at home to Horsham meant Steve King’s side could no longer get out of the bottom four – a fate that in truth has seemed inevitable for some weeks.

Ricky Korboa struck early into the first half to give the visitors the lead, before Quevin Castro equalised just before the hour mark to give Borough hope.

Now attention turns to the rebuild and to what lies ahead for Borough in the Isthmian premier division next season.
