Hill skipper Beckett still has a title vision
7:11pm Friday 5th September 2008
BUCKHURST Hill skipper Russell Beckett is looking for a derby win over rivals Woodford Green on Saturday, that could see them crowned Division Three champions.
The Roding Lane outfit were assured of promotion to Division Two last weekend, thanks to their 26-run victory at Epping, and Green's win over closest promotion rivals Old Brentwoods.
But with his side sitting joint top with Billericay going into the final weekend of the 2008 campaign on 245 points, Beckett is looking to cash-in should they slip up against Ongar.
He said: “There is still all to play for and all we can do is win our game with Woodford Green and hope Billericay slip up against Ongar.
“We have already achieved promotion, which was the main aim at the start of the season, but it would be nice to go up as champions.
“It will be a tough game, though against Woodford because they did well to beat Old Brentwoods.
“But we know if we play to our potential it is a game we can win, and then we would just to see what happens elsewhere.”
