- The 1992 Football League Fourth Division play-off Final was an association football match which was played on 23 May 1992 at Wembley Stadium, London, between Blackpool and Scunthorpe United to determine the fourth and final team to gain promotion from the Football League Fourth Division to the Third Division. The top three teams of the 1991–92 Football League Fourth Division, Burnley, Rotherham United and Mansfield Town, gained automatic promotion, while those placed from fourth to seventh place took part in play-offs. The winners of the play-off semi-finals competed for the final place in the Third Division for the 1992–93 season. Blackpool and Scunthorpe United beat Barnet and Crewe Alexandra, respectively, in the semi-finals. The match was refereed by Keith Hackett in front of 22,741 spectators. In the 40th minute, Tony Rodwell won the ball from Scunthorpe's Paul Longden and his cross found Dave Bamber at the far post who scored through the legs of goalkeeper Mark Samways with a low header. Scunthorpe equalised in the 52nd minute. Tony Daws received a pass from John Buckley which he volleyed past Steve McIlhargey in the Blackpool goal to make it 1–1. No further goals were scored and with the score level, the game went into extra time. Both sides had chances to score in the additional period but the game headed to a penalty shootout. The first six penalties were converted, making it 3–3, before the two Scunthorpe substitutes Graham Alexander and Jason White failed to score, and Blackpool won the shootout 4–3, securing promotion to the third tier of English football. Blackpool's next season saw them finish in eighteenth in the newly renamed Second Division (still the third tier of English football). Scunthorpe ended their following season in thirteenth position in the newly renamed Third Division (which remained the fourth tier of English football). (en)
