'I am sure we will come back stronger' - reaction after Burgess Hill Town are all-but relegated on penultimate day of the season
The Hillians need to win against Wingate and Finchley next Saturday whilst also turning round a 14 goal swing but also need Whitehawk to lose - so it is extremely unlikely despite their previous last day heroics in previous seasons.
And fans and players alike took to social media to react to the news.
