Town now need one more point from their final game of the season to achieve their objective of staying up.
They travel to play mid-table Frickley Athletic in the last game of their first season in the top flight on Saturday knowing that a win or draw will secure their place in the Premier for next term.
They will also be safe from the drop barring an unlikely result at Westfield Lane if any of the three teams below them – Albion, Thackley or Bottesford Town – lose their final games of the season.
Victory, however, can see Horbury finish as high as 12th in the table, which would be some achievement for Darren Barnes’ men, who have kept fighting all season despite some heartbreaking narrow defeats keeping them locked in a relegation battle to the finish.
They went a long way towards securing the Premier place with the vital 2-0 success against Albion when long serving forward Gibril Bojang gave them a first half lead following a great effort to keep the ball in then produce a stunning cross by Emmaisa Nzondo, who had to come on as an early substitute on the wing.
Sam Kyeremeh made sure of the points with a second goal six minutes from time and the home team were good value for their success.
Great defending ensured a clean sheet in what amounted to Town’s most important game of the season and they will want more of the same now at Frickley to finish the job.
