Haddington are among a number of clubs poised for a dramatic conclusion to the season, as the curtain comes down on an enthralling 2013/14 campaign.

The club travel to 9th placed Murrayfield Wanderers on Saturday, having already guaranteed their place in the new Premier Division 3 for next season.

However, Bryan Craig's side could finish the season in fourth place, providing they win at Murrayfield, and current incumbents Livingston lose on the road to Aberdeenshire.

At the top of the table, Jed Forest can clinch the league title with an away win to eighth-placed Lasswade.

Second-placed Howe of Fife travel to Kirkcaldy in the Fife derby, and need to win at Beveridge Park and hope that Lasswade turn over the Borderers to take the title.

Hawick YM and Murrayfield Wanderers are cut adrift at the foot of the table, and have only pride to play for as they play both East Lothian sides on Saturday - Hawick YM welcome Musselburgh.

We hope that all makes sense, however here is a run down of the permutations of the final weekend in RBS Championship B

• If Jed Forest beat Lasswade, they are champions.
• If Jed fail to collect a point from their game, and Howe of Fife win against Kirkcaldy, they will be champions.
• If Livingston win at Aberdeenshire, or collect two match points, they will finish fourth.
• If Livi don't pick up two match points, they can be overhauled by Haddington - providing they beat Murrayfield Wanderers.
