Bromley part company with Woodman after five years
Bromley part company with manager Andy Woodman following a challenging start to the 2026-27 season.
Long-standing Bromley manager Andy Woodman has left the League One club following the mutual termination of his contract.
Woodman joined Bromley in 2021 in his first managerial role and oversaw the most successful period in the club's history, winning three trophies in guiding them into the Football League for the first time in their history.
Bromley lifted the League Two title in May this year to secure a second promotion on his watch, with Woodman named the division's manager of the year for 2025-26.
But the Ravens have found life in the third tier challenging as they lie 23rd, just one point above Wigan Athletic on the bottom.
They have won just two of their 10 league games this season and conceded an EFL-high 25 goals.
Assistant manager Byron Webster will take charge of first-team affairs on an interim basis with Peterborough United the visitors to Hayes Lane on Saturday (15:00 BST).
Bromley owner and chairman Robin Stanton-Gleaves said Woodman had been "fundamental" in helping the club reach new heights.
"On a personal note, Andy has been a pleasure to work with, and I wish him all the best for the future," Stanton-Gleaves added.
Woodman's five years and seven months in charge of Bromley was the third-longest spell across the 92 clubs in the Premier League and EFL, behind only Arsenal's Mikel Arteta and Nigel Clough of Mansfield.
