Comrades go to top of table
A hat-trick from debutant Stephen Dodd helped Berkhamsted to a 4-0 home win over Kidlington on Saturday to put them top of the Southern League Division One Central table.
Dodd had previously played for Berko in pre-season but with a few players missing, he made the most of being called up.
His first was a thumping header from a Jonathan Lacey cross. Lee Stobbs started the move for his second, finding Lacey whose cross was volleyed home by Dodd.
Just before half-time he scored from close range.
Steve Hatch hit a fourth, volleying in from a Lacey corner.
