Littlehampton Town beat Burgess Hill Town to ensure safety - the match in 34 pictures

Littlehampton Town marked their final appearance in front of their old main stand with an excellent 4-1 win over Burgess Hill Town that ensured they will be back in the Isthmian south east division next season.

It’s been an up-and-down season for Mitch Hand and George Gaskin’s men but when it mattered, and they needed a win to get over the safety line, they won in style.

Goals from Dion Jarvis, Nodirbek Bobomurodov, Gaskin – the first three all within the first 13 minutes – and Josh Short saw off the Hillians, who replied through Tom Butler’s injury time strike.

It means the Marigolds are 17th – five points clear of the bottom two with only one game left – while the Hillians are 14th.
