Langleybury will need to upset the form-book on Saturday if they are to beat the drop from the Home Counties Premier League.

Gregg Cooper’s side are six points adrift of second-bottom Hemel Hempstead in Division Two East after they suffered a seven-wicket defeat at the hands of fellow strugglers Hertford at Hunton Bridge on Saturday.

This was Bury’s 10th defeat of the campaign and they now head to second-from-top Bishop’s Stortford on the final day of the season needing a positive result against a team who have only been beaten three times.

However, Bury’s fate could also be determined by the outcome of Hemel’s trip to mid-table Sawbridgeworth and/or Hertford’s home game with North Mymms.

Meanwhile, Radlett kept their mathematical chances of winning the Division One title alive with an emphatic nine-wicket demolition of Falkland on Saturday.

But victory at fourth-placed Oxford is still unlikely to be enough for Shane Burgers’ men, who are a position further back in the table, as they trail leaders High Wycombe by 20 points.
