The Glassboys occupy the fifth and final play-off spot, four points ahead of nearest chasers Workington, with three games left to play.

They face Whitby Town, who are just above the relegation zone, at Amblecote tomorrow, then travel to Frickley Athletic next Thursday and finish against Manchester United's Class of '92-owned Salford City next Saturday.

Broadhurst, who has amassed over 600 appearances for the club, admits there will be interest in the result of the clash between Ashton United and Workington tomorrow afternoon, but insists Stour need to look after themselves first.

"It is a massive week," he said. "Since day one though we knew if we all looked after ourselves, with the talent we have in the squad, we would have a great season.

"If we can play like we have been we should be alright, irrespective of what the others do.

"We need to concentrate on ourselves, of course we are aware of the Ashton and Workington game, and if we do, we should be able to get the result we need."

Elsewhere, Halesowen Town welcome Grantham Town to The Grove, while Rushall Olympic make the trip to Ilkeston (both 3pm).
