Steyning Town aim for a double - after a few beers and some pool turn into a party
Steyning Town boss Kev Green has explained how a few beers and a game of pool turned into a title celebration which went viral.
The Barrowmen have won the Southern Combination after a sizzling run of 43 points from the last possible 45.
A 4-0 win at Newhaven left them on the brink and they knew a setback for Crowborough at Crawley Down on Tuesday would secure them the crown.

Green did not want his tired and bruised squad to train but said: “We thought it would be a shame not be together if Crawley Down got a result so we decided to have a night at the clubhouse.
“If nothing else happened, at least we would have a few beers and play some pool.
“Then we got the result through and it turned into quite a night.
“There are a few videos on Twitter!”
Steyning will go up to Isthmian south-east but their season is not over yet.
Green said: “We’ve got Uckfield in the league and then a Peter Bentley Cup semi and potentially final.
“We will be looking for a league and cup double and then look to next season.”
