Hockey: Edinburgh take league title and play-off place

DAVID Guy and Gordon Lamb both fired doubles as Edinburgh secured the Division Two title and a promotion play-off place in truly emphatic style yesterday with a comprehensive come-from-behind 6-1 victory over league strugglers Waverley Inveresk Trinity.

Simon Waugh and Ramsay Bell completed the goal blitz. Martin Johnston had put second-bottom Waverley Inveresk Trinity into a surprise 1-0 lead in the 18th minute before the class of the Edinburgh outfit shone through.

Neil Allan, Edinburgh's coach, said: "We targeted the title and now we'll have to step things up if we want promotion."
