The Bostik League Show- Episode 45

The Back of the Net Team headed to the vital clash between playoff hopefuls Leatherhead and Leiston- but they had their spies elsewhere too! Here's a comprehensive set of highlights!

The penultimate weekend of the season - and things were hotting up! On Friday night, AFC Hornchurch were crowned Champions of the North, after taking on a strong Aveley side. In the Bostik Premier though, things were less certain...

The main game this week saw 6th place take on 7th with both Leatherhead and Leiston needing to win to keep their play-off hopes alive. It wouldn't be easy for their rivals Margate though, who hosted a Billericay side only a few points away from the title. 4th place Hendon also needed a win against Merstham to maintain their promotion hopes.

Meanwhile at the bottom, only one point separated the bottom two, with both Tooting & Mitcham and Burgess Hill hoping survival was on the cards - a win for either team today would almost seal safety.

So here you go- highlights from all of those matches are in The Bostik League Show- Episode 45
