Ollie Tracking Beckett

Last updated : 03 November 2004 By Mark O' Haire

Beckett is out-of-contract this summer and has recently rejected a two-year contract offer to stay at Edgerley Park, in order to move to a so-called "bigger club".

Many County regulars have been upset and infuriated by these comments leaving a sour taste in the front man’s mouth.

Coventry City have been tracking the progress of the striker who has netted 47 times for County in nearly 90 appearances.

Bristol City had an approach turned down earlier in the season but a bid from Ian Holloway could not be too far away.

With the knowledge of Beckett’s contract close to expiring and with the player wanting to move away, the club may reluctantly accept a cut-price offer for their star asset.

Following recent investment into Rangers, Ollie may just have the finances available that could tempt the Stockport directors into agreeing a deal.
