The Blues play their final home match this afternoon against Peterborough Sports, who will be in the play-offs at least come 5pm. Peterborough are unbeaten in their last 11 matches and second in the league table, thus wanting to win to guarantee a home tie in the semi-finals of the play-offs.

Leiston are assured of at least a top 8 finish, but can finish 7th should they better Royston Town’s result, who are at Alvechurch. Alvechurch will get a play-off place on goal difference should they win and AFC Rushden & Diamonds lose at home to Nuneaton Borough. Peterborough Sports, Coalville Town and Rushall Olympic will be in the play-offs next week.

Leiston came so close to winning a third Suffolk Premier Cup on Thursday night but fell just short. In their 50th appearance in the competition, Needham won 5-4 on penalties after the game had ended 0-0.

The club will be announcing Supporters Player Of The Year this afternoon.
