Well what about the part-timers who juggle full-time jobs and families on top of playing 53 games? And, there’s also training once possibly twice a week.

Sadly, despite a good effort Leiston failed to make the end-of-season play-offs and will finish just above mid-table.

That's a good return against some well-established clubs from huge towns. The players have certainly provided the Leiston public with some fantastic moments, roll on August for more.

Last Monday’s trip to the Lowestoft seaside was a bit of a disaster and I don’t mean the goalless stalemate.

I was looking forward to dipping my toe in the North Sea pre-match but Tik Tok forgot the armbands so we had to cancel that.

To be honest we’ve had a few disasters this season, what with car breakdowns, late trains, cancelled matches, speed traps, Tik Tok putting salt in my tea at Telford, then squirting a whole flipping bottle of Ketchup in my burger at Hitchin.

I’m looking forward to a rest over the next few months to recharge my old batteries.

Would we do it all again? You bet we would.
