WICK ARE ALMOST THERE

WICK are on the verge of returning to Division 1 and could do it at Crabtree Park this Easter weekend. If St Francis and Wick both win on Saturday, then Wick will have to beat fourth-bottom Steyning Town on Monday to secure promotion.St Francis have to host Steyning on Saturday then entertain mid-table Mile Oak on Monday.

In the unlikely event that Wick go on a losing run, all they need to do is beat St Francis when they meet in the last game of the season on April 30 to go up.

Long-time leaders Crowborough were promoted on Saturday after their 1-1 draw at Midhurst.

The title is still yet to be decided and Wick boss Andy Gander hopes to have silverware coming to Crabtree Park. He said: "When we are promoted we can start to look for the title. That's what we have to set our sights on when the first part of our job is done."

It took a 68th minute Chris Morrow goal to give Wick victory at fourth-placed St Francis on Saturday. Morrow struck from 18 yards through a crowded area after Marc Cooper's cross fell kindly.

St Francis never really threatened Wick and keeper Simon Davey gave a faultless display.

Tony Miles went close with a header from Cooper's cross in the first half and Tom Manton struck the bar early in the second period.

After Morrow's goal, Danny Curd shot wide Wick's best other chance.

Lee Howard is available for the Easter fixtures but Adam Hunt is still out with an ankle problem.

WICK: Davey; Howcroft, Miles, Woolmer, Sharman; Yassan, Cooper, Morrow, Manton; Miller, Curd. Subs: S.Bennett (Yassan 55), J.Bennett, Christodoulou, Cullen, Farrell.

Monday's match kicks-off at 11am.
