Watch: Pitch invasion as Hednesford Town celebrate promotion

The Pitmen will be playing National League North football next season

Hednesford Town fans have been celebrating a second successive promotion.

The Pitmen beat Warrington Rylands in a dramatic penalty shootout at Keys Park this afternoon to win their Northern Premier play-off final.

And once the winning spot-kick hit the back of the net, scores of supporters poured on to the pitch to celebrate with their heroes.

Skipper Joe Doyle-Charles fittingly lifted in the winning penalty in a 5-4 shootout success before most of a sold-out 4,000 Keys Park crowd flooded on to the field.
