FOOTBALL: Mark on top of the world
Mark Bell celebrates
Mark Bell celebrates

Oxford City teenager Mark Bell admitted that clinching promotion to the Premier Division was his "happiest moment in football".

The 18-year-old bagged his 20th goal of the season - quite a contrast to how the season began for the winger.

" I was dropped for the first part of the season, but went to the manager and told him 'if you pick me, I will get you goals' and thankfully that's what I did," he said.

"It's my happiest moment in football. It was nice to get the goal because it made me top-scorer for the season.

"We are capable of doing what Bashley did - they got promoted from our league last season and reached the Premier Division play-offs this time."

Skipper James Saulsbury added: "I'm very pleased to get promotion.

"We have worked really hard all season and have done it the hard way, going through the play-offs.

"It was a fantastic win at Didcot, we worked so hard as a team and to come here and beat Uxbridge was brilliant for everyone.

"It's a great achievement. We were in the Spartan League not so long ago. Everybody works so hard as a committee and a club."
