A 94th Minute winner from Mark Goldfinch saw Leiston take all three points from a hard working Newmarket side. <<Match Report >> Leiston Appoint New Assistant ManagerLeiston Football Club are pleased to announce that David Burrows has joined Leiston FC as Assistant Manager to Carl Chenery. David, (aka Bunty) is a well respected figure in the local non league scene and has once again joined up with his old colleague Carl. Having played together at Lowestoft Town and in the successful Sunday Carlsberg Cup team they also briefly played together at Leiston in the then Jewson league so they are well aware of each other’s capabilities. More recently they were both at Kirkley & Pakefield and were instrumental in the rise of Kirkley & Pakefield in the Ridgeons Premier Division. Club Chairman Andy Crisp also has a good relationship with David and on behalf of all at Leiston FC would like to wish him all the best as he rejoins the Victory Road club in his new role. Former Assistant Manager David Head has been reinstated as club Captain and is pleased with Burrow’s appointment. David added, “I still see my role at the club as a player and would like to concentrate on playing football at this level for a few more seasons yet. There is plenty of time to manage and that is certainly something I would like to do in the future. I feel I have a few good years left to offer on the pitch before making the switch to the sidelines”.
