A 2-0 defeat at Braintree leaves them unable to finish in the top seven and be part of the end-of-season promotion knockouts.
The best Danny Bloor’s side can hope for is an eighth-placed finish – but it has still been a fine season for the team from Priory Lane, whose campaign ends at home to Concord Rangers next Saturday.
