Blackpool drop out of Beckett race

Last updated : 10 June 2005 By Luke Thornhill
Sheffield United forward Beckett has struggled to establish himself in the first-team at the Blades, and has been out on loan to Huddersfield and Oldham.

Hendry had settled on a price for him, but will now turn his attention elsewhere.

He said: "We did as much as we can as a football club to sign him.

"We have spoken and agreed everything with the club but it doesn't look like it is going to happen, though you never know in football.

"We are getting on with things and Luke was one we were monitoring."
