RETAIL GIANT IN LINE FOR QUAY ROLE FUTURE PROSPECT? Debenhams is expected to open a branch in the Barons Quay area of Northwich.

EXCLUSIVE By Dave Goodban LEADING department store Debenhams looks set to become the jewel in the crown of the £300m regeneration of Northwich town centre The Chronicle understands the 80,000sq ft department store, the centrepiece of the Barons Quay redevelopment, will be taken up by the high street chain.

80,000sq ft flagship store to create scores of jobs and provide a boost to the local economy. Although nothing has been finalised, developers Wilson Bowden are confident Debenhams, which employs more than 22,000 people worldwide and last year turned over £2.3bn, will sign up. A Vale Royal Council spokesman said this week: “Debenhams remains committed to opening a department store in

Northwich as part of the Barons Quay development and reaffirmed this commitment as recently as nine weeks ago. “Site investigations are programmed to start later this year and the council and Wilson Bowden are confident the Northwich Vision programme is on course to deliver a change in the town centre’s fortunes.”

OFFICIAL PARTNER

Leicestershire-based Wilson Bowden penned a contract to overhaul the 600,000sq ft Barons Quay area earlier this year. A provisional planning application is expected in March or April next year. The multi-million pound project will also offer a 90,000sq ft food store, a multi-screen cinema and 40 new shops and restaurant space. A Debenhams spokesperson said: “We have no comment with regard to Northwich town centre. Debenhams are however always looking for new site opportunities to expand our portfolio of stores.”

Crack cocaine sentence

A WINSFORD drug dealer has been jailed for two years by a judge at Chester Crown Court. Police raided the Grampian Way home of Liam Abbott, 22, on June 19 and found a bag containing white crystals, which were later identified as crack cocaine. The search warrant was issued after an incident the previous day, in which Abbott had entered a takeaway brandishing a samurai sword. Following his arrest he was charged with possession of crack cocaine with intent to supply, possession of an offensive weapon and breach of an ASBO. Abbott admitted the drugs charge on August 15 and was sentenced to a 24-month custodial stretch. The other two offences were ordered to lie on file. Insp Dave Snasdell, of Winsford Neighbourhood Policing Unit, welcomed the judge’s decision. He said: “Drug dealing is a serious problem and the sentence received by Abbott shows the courts and the police take a dim view of anyone who becomes involved in the supply of illegal substances. “Drug use and addiction is a major contributory factor to other types of crime, including theft, burglary and violence, and whilst we are committed to doing what we can to reduce these issues we rely on the community to be our eyes and ears and inform us of any illegal activity.”

Moped youth banned A 17-YEAR-OLD from Greenbank was caught drink-driving by police after a female friend let him ride her moped in exchange for a can of lager, magistrates heard. Police followed the teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, after spotting him weaving along the road on the bike heading towards Greenbank station on the night of Sunday, August 10. But he jumped off and ran across the tracks when the police asked him to pull over, leaving the moped to fall onto the leg of his pillion passenger, the bike’s owner. The youth, who had drunk six cans of lager, was twice the legal limit, a breath test showed. On Wednesday at Vale Royal Youth Court he pleaded guilty to drink-driving, driving without insurance or a licence, and failing to stop. “You need to be sorted out,” said chairman of the bench Brian Gumm. “It’s time you were punished.” The youth was ordered to carry out 80 hours of unpaid work and banned from driving for 16 months.

Memorial service for tragic racing rider FRIENDS and neighbours of Craig Jones, as well as sports fans across Mid Cheshire, have their chance on Saturday to pay their respects to the race ace who died after a crash at Brands Hatch. A memorial service is to be conducted at Northwich Parish Church at noon and all are welcome, say Craig’s parents Steve and Yvonne Jones. Craig, 23, died on August 4. The former Hartford High School pupil was from Marshall Lane, Greenbank, but recently lived at Peterborough where his funeral took place last week. He was rated as one British motorcycle racing’s hottest prospects and was competing in the World Supersport Championships when he came off his bike and died in a London Hospital after never regaining consciousness. Craig lived with his girlfriend Karen Atkins, 33, and the couple were expected to marry. Dad Steve said: “We have received more than 400 condolence cards from all over the world, as well as bouquets, sprays, and plants.”

Court halts ASBO application MAGISTRATES agreed not to give ASBOs to two teenage girls with more than 30 criminal convictions between them, after the death of one of their fathers. The pair, aged 14 and 15, were jointly convicted of theft and threatening behaviour in July, and warned the two-year orders could be imposed as an additional punishment to a two-month curfew. At Vale Royal Youth Court on Wednesday Derek MacDonald, defending, asked for an

adjournment in the light of the recent death of the older girl’s dad, and said it would be “wholly inappropriate” for the hearing to go ahead. Prosecutor Julie Barr objected to an adjournment on the grounds it would not be “in the interests of justice”, but magistrates decided to make a stand. Chairman of the bench Brian Gumm said: “We have wholly exceptional circumstances here which I’ve never come across,

and I’ve been a magistrate for 20 years now. “Normally we’d have a lengthy adjournment to get things sorted out, but that’s not appropriate so we’re going to stop the proceedings for an ASBO.” Mr MacDonald said the bench’s show of faith would bring about a change in the girls, who “are like sisters”. Mr Gumm told them: “You two now have a high responsibility. We are fed up of you, Northwich is fed up of you.”

Confident STEPHEN Johnson believes his campaign is now a step closer to the High Court, and claims he is confident of victory in the end. And campaign specialist Bleddyn Hancock, who is backing the fight with the NHS, agrees. Mr Hancock, once behind a miners’ £4.5 billion injury compensation payout, told the Chronicle: “I’m sure Stephen will certainly win,” he said. “In my experience the health boards give in before then, as they don’t want the adverse publicity of being proved wrong. “The NHS are swindling people like Rod Johnson out of their savings, hounding them out of their homes and conning them out of care that should be freely available. “His primary need was for health, that is the responsibility of the NHS and the law states that quite clearly. Our sick and elderly are being pushed into the private sector and the NHS are trying to get away from paying.”

Campaigner pledges he will not be beaten By Dave Goodban A DEVOTED campaigner fighting for “justice” for his dead brother has had his plea rejected by the NHS – for the seventh time. But Stephen Johnson, of Strawberry Lane, Acton Bridge, has come out fighting after the latest setback in his three-year battle with Central and Eastern Cheshire Primary Care Trust. Mr Johnson’s brother Rod, 54, spent almost £60,000 on care at Redwalls Nursing Home, Sandiway, after suffering a stroke in 2005. But the PCT refuses to foot the bill as it deemed his needs social, not medical. Rod died in March, and his brother, whose mother also died earlier this year, has completely devoted his life to fighting for Continuing Care funding, to which he claims Rod was entitled. “I’ve now been turned down for the seventh time for something that’s totally straightforward,” he said. “This has made me even more determined that I won’t give in. I can’t grieve for my mother and brother until this case is over. I’m very disappointed once again, and I will be taking this further.”

Ross, 17, impresses United boss Sir Alex By Dave Goodban A TALENTED teenage footballer from Wincham is hoping to make the grade after being picked out by Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson from 1,000 hopefuls. Mid-Cheshire College student Ross Farran, 17, won the chance to train with United coaches at the club’s Carrington training complex as part of Nike’s Most Wanted – a series of trials to find the best footballing talent in the UK. Striker Ross, of Keats Lane, took part in a coaching session with legends Peter Reid and Ian Rush last Friday in Liverpool, and was one of two chosen to progress. On Saturday he took part in a full 11-a-side match along with 21 other youngsters plucked from trials across the country, and was picked out by Sir Alex, along with three others, after impressing. “It went really well,” he said. “I loved every minute of it, I wasn’t nervous at all.” Ross, who plays for the unofficial Northwich Vics youth team at Mid-Cheshire College, also plays for England at futsal – five-a-side indoor football played with a smaller, heavier ball. He added: “I’m hoping to get spotted. I just want that one chance, you never know what might happen.”

Students’ great grades Records were broken at schools across Mid Cheshire this week, and many a celebratory scene unfolded as thousands of teenagers picked up their GCSE results on Thursday morning. Here Chronicle reporter JANE MATZEN brings you a comprehensive four-page guide to what happened where. WEAVERHAM HIGH

WEAVERHAM WONDERS: Weaverham High School pupils celebrating their GCSE results at school on Thursday morning. RECORDS were once again smashed at Weaverham High School, where more than 80% of pupils achieved at least five passes at grade C or above. Headteacher David Charlton said he was delighted with the results, which accounted for a 13% improvement on last year, and slammed suggestions that exams are getting easier. He said: “The improvement they show is far more than any national increase. They mean that this year 24 more pupils than ever before have the opportunity to proceed on to university. “Have exams got easier? I do not think so. We have made some subtle changes this year which have led to our increased success. The improvement shown by these superb results is not down to one single factor, but to a number of changes we have made. “However, underlying all this has been the exceptional hard work of our pupils and the staff that have supported them. It is to them that my congratulations go.” The roll call of honour included 11 pupils who achieved 10 or more GCSEs at A* or A. They are: James Lawrence from Whitegate; James Martin and Nathan Thorpe, Hartford; Alastair Plail, Comberbach; Warwick Brown, Sam Connell, Rebecca Crist and Elizabeth Goodger, Cuddington; Rosalind Harrison, Winsford; Thomas Over, Gorstage; and Rebecca Witter from

A STAR performance by pupils of The Grange School was celebrated on Thursday when a recordbreaking 78% of all grades awarded were A or A*. Almost 43% of students achieved nothing lower than an A grade, and 10 students were awarded straight A* grades in all nine subjects taken. Headmaster Christopher Jeffrey said: “We have become familiar with excellent GCSE results in recent years, and this year maintains that level of performance. To have well over three-quarters of grades awarded at A or above speaks volumes for our young people and for their teachers, who work so brilliantly together to achieve results to be proud of.” Two students, Alex Blayney from Hartford and Gareth Wilkes from Cuddington, were among the top 10 individual students nationally in the EdExcel board’s IGCSE Chemistry, which Grange pupils entered for the first time this year.

MID-CHESHIRE COLLEGE

Students go the extra mile for exam success STUDENTS who found time to study in between caring for families and going out to work were among those celebrating success at Mid-Cheshire College on Thursday. A college spokeswoman said many of the results were for adults taking one or two GCSEs in key subjects Maths and English, despite most having families and full-time jobs. And to put the icing on the cake there was a 100% pass rate in Maths and 97% pass rate in English, with many students achieving A to C grades. Kay Brown and Karen Rutherford both achieved As in English. Karen said: “I am really pleased all my hard work has paid off, particularly as I discovered I had dyslexia.” Kay needed GCSE English to get into teaching. And the sky’s the limit for 19-year-old Rebecca Cowsill, of Northwich, who passed English

with a grade B to further her ambitions of joining the RAF. Mature student Susan Millward, 55, also pocketed a B in English and completed an Access to Higher Education course to study criminology and law at Keele University. Mum Rachel Perkes, of Cuddington, gained a B in maths and now wants to become an accountant. She said: “I was never happy with my results from school and I want to help my little girl in the future. I am absolutely gob smacked with the result, I would like to study accountancy in the future but I am expecting my second child later this year.” Principal John Reilly said: “These are very pleasing results for our adults and younger students, once again many of these achievements have resulted from part-time study, juggling work and family priorities. “I wish all the students well in their future studies or chosen careers.”

ALL SMILES: Susan Millward beams with happiness after receiving her results at Mid-Cheshire College.

ST NICHOLAS HIGH FOLLOWING on from a record-breaking crop of A-level results it was celebrations all the way at St Nicholas High School, where more than 80% of the year group achieved five or more A*-C grades for the fifth consecutive year.

HARTFORD HIGH MORE records were toppled at Hartford High School where 157 students, two thirds of the year group, achieved five or more A*-C grades. Pupils also did well across the ability range with 225 achieving five or more A*- G grades. Headteacher Michael Holland said he was “absolutely thrilled” with the results and praised the students for their commitment. “We have made excellent progress over the last 12 months and this is due to the hard work and dedication of our students and colleagues,” he said. “Our commitment to high standards is being rewarded. “We are very proud of these outstanding achievements and the students must be commended for their efforts. “It is also important to remember the supporting role played by their parents in their success. I am particularly pleased that our success was evenly spread between boys and girls.” Twenty-eight pupils achieved at least eight A* or A grades. Exceptional performers, who each collected between 10 and 12 A* or A grades were: Sam Barnett, Sophie Blackburn, Andrew Bushnell-Wye, Holly Chaplin, Jenny Fulton, Olivia Gillespie, Poppy Goldsmith, Candy Gordon-Fordyce, Lisabeth Grindrod, Thomas Heyes, Oliver Higgins, Hannah Merson, Kathy Stringer and John Walker.

WINSFORD HIGH SCHOOL FEDERATION BOTH Verdin and Woodford Lodge High Schools had cause for celebration, with improved grades and more pupils gaining qualifications than ever before. At Woodford Lodge 24% picked up five A*-C grades, including English and Maths – a 10% rise on last year. Overall 35% of results were in the A*-C bracket. At Verdin 48% gained five or more A*-C grades. And both schools were well above the national average for the percentage of pupils getting at least one GCSE –

98% at Woodford Lodge and 99% at Verdin. Headteacher of the Federation, Martin Howlett, said: “I’m very pleased with the performance of the students and the results show the students have worked hard to ensure they can progress on to their post-16 education plans. “This is a fantastic set of results that is a just reward for all the hard work, effort and commitment the students have shown to their studies. “I would like to thank the parents of students in Year 11 for their support of the

school and the encouragement given to their children. It is this collaboration and dedication to support that has enabled all students to succeed so well.” Twelve Woodford Lodge students got 11 or more A*-Cs, and star performers included Michael Clarke (three A*s, five As) and Sophia Oakes (one A*, four As). At Verdin, Jack Hardiman (two A*s, seven As), Scott Littler (two A*s, six As) and Sam Throsby (two A*s, five As) excelled.

Say ‘cheers’ to free drink at town’s beer festival THE 15th Northwich Beer Festival will take place the Memorial Hall next month – and once again the Chronicle has teamed up with the organisers to offer readers a free glass of beer. This year’s festival is on Friday and Saturday September 19 and 20. Just collect the numbered tokens published every week in the run-up to the festival, starting today, to claim your drink. Last year, 4,700 pints of beer from 72 different breweries were sold – plus more than 580 pints of cider and perry – and visitors came from all over the North West and North Wales. Cllr Val Godfrey, one of the event’s organisers, said: “This year we’re hoping for even more beers, even more money raised for local good causes and, of course, even more people. “We know there are some enthusiasts who have attended every one of the previous 14 beer festivals – we’re looking forward to welcoming them to the 15th.” Tickets are £6 for Friday evening, £3 Saturday lunch time and £4 Saturday evening and will be available from Vale Royal’s Information Centre, Jack Gees Cycles and the Memorial Hall. And although the beers have changed the music hasn’t – due to public demand the Bog Trotters will appear on both evenings.

Chronicle August 27, 2008 MRS D WOOLLEY

The funeral has taken place of Doris Woolley, aged 85, of Willow Court, Winsford, and formerly of Middlewich.

A service at Crewe Crematorium Chapel was conducted by the Rev Graham Wassell. Mrs Woolley was born in Barnton. She started school in Northwich until moving to Middlewich with her parents, brother and sister when she was about eight-years-old. Leaving school at 14 she worked at Lillyworks and then Pot Bank and spent the majority of her life in Middlewich, marrying her husband Seymour in 1940 and raising eight children with him. She devoted her life to the care of their family and left Middlewich for Sandbach where they spent a short time before moving to Winsford. She was widowed in 1985 and was to live in Winsford for a total of 28 years until her death. Mrs Woolley’s was an ordinary life at first glance, but one of dedication to home and family. She leaves behind six of her eight children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchild.

Mourners included Mr D & Mrs C Woolley, Mr M & Mrs R Woolley (sons & daughters-in-law), Mr M & Mrs D Weatherby-Boon, Mr T & Mrs S Edwards, E Woolley, J Gregory (sons-in-law & daughters), Mr C & Mrs A Argent, A Jackson, D Weatherby-Boon, J Roberts, M Roberts, C Edwards, J Edwards, V Edwards, C Prigg, W Buckley, G Buckley, M Hatton & husband, M Peacock, P Peacock, Sean & Stephen Peacock, M Taylor & C Thompson (grandchildren), L Jackson & E Raynes (granddaughter & partner), C Raynes, E Thompson (great-granddaughters), L Feherty, C Peacock (great-grandsons), Mr S & Mrs A Curzon (brother-in-law & sister), N Brotherton (sister-in-law), R Brotherton, Mr & Mrs P Brotherton, Mr & Mrs D Brotherton (nephews & wives), R Maranzano, J Norton (nieces), Mrs J Jones & husband (niece), Mr L Jones, Mr R Jones (great-nephews), E & M Taylor (cousins), Colleen & Shirley (carers).

MR KEN BURROWS

THE funeral has taken place of Ken Burrows, 73, of Crook Lane, Winsford.

Mr Burrows was the husband of Irene Burrows and a dearly loved dad and grandad. Mr Burrows was born in Winsford and had lived in the town all his life. He was the second son of William and Kathleen Burrows, and the dear brother of Keith and Kay. By trade he was a plumber and painter, starting work at Curzon’s until his National Service. Afterwards he went on to Newalls, Harold Stoneley’s and the Co-op, where he spent many happy years. Latterly, he worked at ICI for 19 years until his retirement. In 1958 he married Irene Walker and they had four children, David, Gary, Julie and Martyn. In his spare time he enjoyed golf and bowling. In his earlier years he enjoyed football, including a time as trainer at Moulton. Family, relatives and many friends attended the service at Trinity Methodist Church before committal at Crewe Crematorium, conducted by the Rev Graham Wassell. Floral tributes and donations to the British Heart Foundation and Leukaemia Research were received.

Mourners: Mrs I Burrows (wife), Mr and Mrs D Burrows, Mr and Mrs G Burrows (sons and daughters-in-law), Mr and Mrs B Larkin (daughter and son-in-law), Mr and Mrs M Burrows (son and daughter-in-law), Mr and Mrs K Burrows, Mr and Mrs A Egerton, Mr and Mrs T Blake, Mr and Mrs W Ravenscroft, Mr and Mrs R Pickstock, Mr J Bersantie, S Redhead.

Patients let down

IT IS now 12 months on since the move to the new Government-proposed ‘Cancer Centre of Excellence’ for pelvic cancer operations performed by laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery from Leighton to Wythenshawe. The question one year on is, has there been any benefit to those patients requiring treatment after diagnosis of prostate cancer? I have monitored the situation during that period and my conclusion is “no difference”, but with more complaints and, of course, the unnecessary travel, coupled with the fact the centre is certainly not following the guidelines issued by the Government recommendations. The operations are all being performed by the same surgeon, without the promised assistance. He is therefore required Gary Steele to seek the help of a “fellow researcher” from Leighton on a temporary basis who is dependent on the financial funding from the above group to get him there, as neither trust will consider financial backing for him. The other two surgeons seemingly are appointed to perform all their operations at the Christie Hospital for their trust. The situation as I see it is thus: Without the South Manchester patients being sent to the Christie Hospital it appears they would not have a Urology Department and similarly at Wythenshawe without the Leighton Hospital patients the same would appear to be the case there. So just where is the ‘Cancer Centre of Excellence’ the Government introduced? The natural answer and progression would be to combine Christie with Wythenshawe and Leighton with Stepping Hill/ Macclesfield as the latter had good and close relations with each other prior to the Government intervention, and also the Stepping Hill site seems to be the one area that is a success. I feel once again we are being let down with a system to the detriment of patients at a time when they are in a state of confusion and concern for their well-being when diagnosed with a type of cancer claiming some 11,000 lives every year in the UK.

This week on the forums Posted by: Jeffrey Subject: Proposed Travellers site in Cuddington Call me simple if you will (God, the roar is deafening!) but can't Travellers be treated like any other traveller – like me, for example, who may travel to a caravan park or camping site in, say, Devon and pay site fees? Yes, have designated sites perhaps, but also site fees – some of which can be made redeemable if the site is left clean! Sounds too simple perhaps for these highpowered council bods to organise? Posted by: the5goldred Subject: Proposed Travellers site in Cuddington I would NOT welcome travellers in Winsford. We already have TWO permanent sites.

Report scumbags

IT NEVER ceases to amaze me how often I hear people in the streets or my neighbours say things have never been so bad when referring to crime and anti-social behaviour. Surely through various media all of our community are aware by now that the crime figures are falling? And therefore we live in a safer society – apparently not and the message is not getting across. Who is to blame for this feeling of despair, is it the police, who need to show year-on-year improvement to their masters at Whitehall? Or is it the local authorities that wish to achieve star-rated status and use statistics and overrated, vastly funded, negligible initiatives to prove to the public and Government they are a safe community? It may be that the social landlords are to blame for not being tough enough, but hey–- they say they are so they must be, don’t they have the awards as well to tell us so? The simple answer is not a single one of these agencies is to blame but along with the rest of us they all are! There are families, neighbours and individuals who make life hell for the rest of us and we all feel the backlash, whether it is our community/estate or someone else’s, it matters not, we all hear about the problems and feel the pain. The time has come for agencies to stop throwing money at initiatives to gain awards and prestige but start to really tackle the anti-social few who blight our daily lives. It may be an individual who is blighting our lives and is known to agencies or it may be a family group who are in control of a neighbourhood, who cares, it is now time a policy of zero tolerance to be

We’ve got them beat, we have thwarted the French at their own game – we’ve gone on strike instead! Not that it will affect British holidaymakers, all holidaying at home because of the credit crunch/carbon footprint/ xenophobia (delete as appropriate).

Who else, you may ask, is to blame for this feeling of despair and fear on the streets and in the home (yes, it flaming well does exist, anticipating next week’s response from the award-winning idiots)? The answer is US, Joe Public for not doing enough to make the award-winning, statistically driven denizens of community safety aware. If someone you know, a neighbour or anyone, has committed a crime or is making your life or your community a living hell, report, report and keep on reporting – I flaming well do so why don’t you?

Clear up the litter

WHY doesn’t someone clear the litter in Marks & Spencer car park? Whose responsibility is it? Millions of pounds are to be spent on improving the town of Northwich, why bother, if the place is not to be maintained properly! It is things like litter, standards of shop façades, landscaped areas maintained, despite continual vandalism, that makes a difference to whether a place is attractive and good to live in. Crime is always a problem, if an area is allowed to deteriorate it is treated with disrespect. The councils have a lot of problems to sort out and litter a somewhat minor one, but just like life, it is the little things that count. JANE MEADOWS, Northwich

Kangaroo paradox

JUSTIN Kerswall, who signed himself campaigner for something called Viva, said (August 13) the kangaroo population in Australia is in crisis and that it had been reduced by 57% or 33 million in seven years through drought and overhunting. That still leaves about 27 million kangaroos. Doesn’t sound like a crisis yet. But still, I cannot deny, they’d all be gone in six years at the current rate of decline. Isn’t that precisely the state that Viva – a vegetarian voice for animals – is unwittingly promoting. If there is money in kangaroo meat it pays the Australians to keep their numbers up. It is called meat farming. Paradoxically, vegetarians need to turn more land over to arable farming and, in Australia that means protecting their crops from pesky kangaroos by, er, shooting them.

Gypsy sites

I WONDER how many people in Winsford are aware of the sites VRBC are proposing to use for permanent Gypsy camps? The council chose to show the plans at Wyvern House where they knew not many people would go to study them, instead of printing them in both local papers, so that anyone could object! One site is the old tip site in Bradbury Road and the other is on the roundabout by the river. This is a spine road through Winsford so what impression will people visiting or passing through the town get? I understand a petition is being prepared against it. A NEARBY RESIDENT

Snap-happy young artists put their town in the picture

A TWO-DAY photographic workshop organised by Development of The Arts In Northwich as part of its summer holiday activities for children has yielded some amazing snaps. The children used digital cameras to conjure up their very personal view of the sights and buildings of the town, with the help of professional photographer Jonathan Purcell. Jonathan said: “The kids did an amazing job – they looked at their town in an exciting way and really brought out the colour and charm of Northwich.” A selection of the best shots is currently on show at Northwich Library and more photographs can be found on the DAN website, www. danarts.org. Some of the best ones are also printed here.

2008 is the launch year of Cheshire’s Gardens of Distinction, an ambitious county –wide project to position Cheshire as one of Europe’s must-see garden destinations. Despite another wet summer visitors are flocking into Cheshire to enjoy some of the finest gardens in the country and it’s not hard to understand why. A wide range of special exhibitions and events is drawing attention to the delights on offer, but it’s the gardens themselves which are attracting visitors in record numbers, on average 28% more than last year. Across the county , enthusiasts of all ages are working together to create a small piece of Eden on every available space, from the formal borders of the stately homes to bluebell woods and even station platforms. The sculptures and other art works at Tatton Park have been a huge success. This is the first event of its kind in the North West. It’s called the Tatton Park Biennial and it has brought together 30 young and emerging artists, performers and writers from across Europe to develop new works using Tatton’s plant collections and landscape as their inspiration. Tatton also hosted the 10th anniversary of the Royal Hor-

By Felicity Goodey, chairwoman of the steering group organising the 08 gardens event ticultural Society Show. Television’s popular gardening expert Chris Beardshaw is technical advisor to the Cheshire Garden’s of Distinction project and was asked to design a special show exhibit. He carried off a gold medal and best in show. Also awarded were Ness Botanic Gardens and Tatton Park, Chester Zoological gardens and Arley Hall. Cheshire Gardens of Distinction are not confined to the great historic show pieces. One of the glories of the county is the range of smaller private gardens many of which are open to the public for one day or more. Cheshire is hosting more than

80 charity days through the National Gardens Scheme and are recruiting more private gardens to open in 2009. In September Chester is this year’s host of the National Britain in Bloom Awards presentation. Finalists from around the country will gather in the elegant surroundings of Britain's oldest racecourse. If they travel by train and come via Crewe they are in for a shock! Passengers at Crewe station are already enjoying the major garden which has been installed on one of the mainline platforms. From September 25 to 29 the station will stage the world premiere of “Station/Stationary” when The Body Cartography Project and Cheshire Dance explore the potential of Crewe Railway Station as a medium to make art. The station will be pulsing with dance, music and film and more than 150 performers. In October preparations begin for the 2009 Bluebell Festival with an afternoon of bulb planting at the Anderton Nature Park as part of a magical‘Night Gardens and Lantern Parade event. Other Festivals to look out for include the Knutsford Food and Drink Festival at Tatton Park and the Quince Festival at Norton Priory.

Forgotten Voices speak for what life was like in wartime By Jane Matzen POIGNANT accounts of the First World War are guaranteed to stir emotions at The Harlequin Theatre in Northwich next week. Forgotten Voices, the first play in the Harlequin Players’ richly varied new season, is being staged to mark the 90th anniversary of the end of the war. Based on the best-selling book by Max Arthur, Forgotten Voices draws on the intensely personal, unvarnished accounts of survivors, which were recorded in the 1960s for the Imperial War Museum’s oral archives. These reminiscences have been woven together to create five characters representative of those who contributed to the archive – ordinary privates, NCOs and GIs, plus the women who worked in the munitions factories. In the play the five characters meet up at the museum to record their experiences; some funny, some sad, but all destined to leave a deep impression on the audience. ■ Forgotten Voices runs from September 4-6 at the theatre on Queen Street. Tickets are £6, or £5 for full-time students, and are available from Northwich Information Centre or by calling 01606 353534.

Apatt play a vast array of instruments including guitar, violin, drums, cello, bass and clarinet and sweep through

several genres in the space of an opening verse. Support comes from Stafford lads Everything on Red, who create a sound likened to “an assault on the ears and mind”. They specialise in “fractured electropunk” that combines raw emotion and energy with mesmerising changes in rhythm.

Film of the week Hellboy II: The Golden Army (12A)

Warning! He’s lewd, rude and very crude

SELF-PROFESSED psychedelic metallers Katatoy play at The Box in Crewe on Friday. The established Crewe indie outfit, featuring vocalist Jim ‘Fish’ Shardlow, Rick Mason on guitar, Tom Forster on keys, bass player Andy Shardlow and drummer Ian ‘Donut’ Dolan, headline another triple bill in the town’s new music venue. In 2000 the band felt they had reached the end of the road and, after a particularly boozy show, threw in the towel to end three years of continuous gigging. Following a lengthy session apart, they have come back together. Frontman Rick said: “We split up and have got back together, scrapping all our old songs and starting to write a fresh set.” Katatoy will be joined by Silverstone Prophet Deluxe, formed by Crewe lad Julian Casewell to deliver acoustic-driven tracks which saw them support 10cc at the town’s M Club earlier this summer. A third band is yet to be confirmed. ■ Doors open at 8pm on Friday at The Box which is in Pedley Street at Crewe. Admission is £3 on the door.

By Will Harris TICKETS are already selling fast for the return of Roy ‘Chubby’ Brown to the Lyceum Theatre in Crewe in September. Chubby brings his extreme brand of rude, crude comedy to adult only audiences following two sell-out crowds in October last year. The pilot-hooded, flight goggles-wearing funnyman is undoubtedly the UK’s leading ‘blue’ act with a stage career spanning three decades, the release of 19 DVDs and a guest appearance on Smokie’s 1995 number one hit Living Next Door To Alice. Theatre spokeswoman Philippa Unett says: “Branded too rude for television, his live acts go from strength to strength. Be sure to get your ticket and listen to the fat man who will make your toes curl, your eyebrows raise and put hairs on your chest.” ■ Roy ‘Chubby’ Brown comes to Crewe on Tuesday and Wednesday, September 16-17. Tickets are £19, phone the box office on 01270 537333.

Chronicle August 27, 2008 HOPING to prove that they are better than the real thing, ZU2 will be wowing the audience at the Lyceum Theatre in Crewe with their latest theatre show ZU2 2D. The Nottingham tribute act has impressed throughout Europe and is now on a UK tour. Lead singer Russ Ashford says: “I am probably one of the biggest fans of U2. I used to hang around with a gang of fans and we would go to the pub dressed as Bono for fun.” The new show will incorporate 2D videos during a set that includes many of the classic U2 tracks such as Mysterious Ways and Miss Sarajevo, and some of their more recent material. A tour spokesman explained: “With blinding lights, a huge sound and amazing graphics, ZU2 will rock you like no other show this year.” ■ ZU2 2D comes to the Lyceum Theatre on Sunday, September 14, at 7.30pm. Tickets are £13.50-£15.50, phone 01270 537333. FORMER Coronation Street star Alan Rothwell is behind a new production coming to The Garrick Playhouse in Altrincham next month. Business Affairs, written by John Chapman and Jeremy Lloyd and directed by Rothwell, is on from Monday, September 8 to Saturday, September 13, and tickets are on sale now. To smooth the impending sale of their failing haulage business, Stanley and Norman arrange to complete the deal in a suite at a smart London hotel – even arranging the services of two “sophisticated escorts” to help the new owners celebrate their purchase. Pandemonium ensues and an ever spiralling series of deceptions and lies keeps everyone on their toes. For tickets, priced £8.50-£11.50, contact the box office on 0161 928 1677.

Players aim to be talk of the town By Jane Matzen ALAN Bennett fans will be in their element later next month when Davenham and Sandiway Players perform three monologues from his Talking Heads series. The first, Her Big Chance, stars Jennifer Oates as aspiring actress Lesley, played by Julie Walters in the TV series. Lesley finds what she believes to be her big break, however it is not clear to what extent she understands she is appearing in a soft pornographic film. In the second, Lorraine Suker

LEADING LADY: Jennifer Oates stars in Her Big Chance. takes on the role played by Patricia Routledge, of Peggy Schofield, a self-described office linchpin, whose world crumbles around her when her strict regime is disrupted.

The evening concludes with Soldering On, starring Caroline Young of Harlequins fame, as the recently bereaved Muriel (played in the original series by Stephanie Cole). Muriel is a strong woman and always has been, so after the death of her husband she is well prepared to cope with the crisis. However, given her son’s dishonesty with money and the vile secret behind her daughter’s illness, Muriel finds that she needs to adapt. Talking Heads is directed by award-winning John Kerr and runs from September 23-26. Tickets are £6 and can be reserved on 01606 45186.

Alison in dark comic tale of last house standing TELEVISION veteran Alison Steadman stars at The Lowry on Salford Quays next week in Alan Bennett’s dark comedy Enjoy. Steadman, who has starred in the BBC series of Pride and Prejudice, The Worst Week of My Life and Gavin and Stacey, features alongside another TV journeyman, David Troughton, in the story of an ageing couple living in the last back-to-back house in Leeds.

But when a sociologist comes to observe them in the daily routine, normality gets turned upside down. A theatre spokesman said: “With its cast of 15 extraordinary characters and a stunning visual finale, Enjoy promises to be an absolute theatrical treat.” Enjoy runs from next Monday to Saturday, (September 1-6.

CHILDREN’S television favourite Angelina Ballerina will be appearing live at the Regent Theatre in Hanley next month in her first stage show, Angelina’s Star Performance. Eleven dancers from the English National Ballet bring the pirouetting mouse to life in The Potteries following performances at the Royal Albert Hall and the Palace of Versailles. Angelina has been given the honour of putting on her very own performance of The Sleeping Beauty for the Queen in her splendid palace. She even has a real-life princess to star alongside her in the show. It’s Angelina’s biggest challenge yet, but will she manage to pull it off ? Angelina Ballerina was published in book format in 1982 by author Katharine Holabird and was made into a hugely successful television series in 2002. Theatre spokesman Dave Bradbury says: “This magical introduction to ballet for children is a rare treat, featuring music from The Sleeping Beauty and imaginative sets and costumes.” ■ Angelina’s Star Performance shows at noon, 3pm and 6pm on Wednesday and Thursday, September 10-11. Tickets are £15 adults, £12.50 children and family tickets for up to four people are £50, phone the box office on 0870 060 6649.

Recently you have been left to cope with everything on your own and I can see from your stars that you’re feeling somewhat bitter about this fact. What you don’t yet realise though is that close ones knew you’d do an admirable job and they’re about to tell you too. Call my starline now to hear why now is the beginning of great teamwork.

Your flirtatious nature is brought to the fore by Venus who seems insistent that you get involved in a situation the rest of us would go out of our way to stay away from. Not you though Taurus, especially with the persuasive power of a Gemini behind you. Call my starline now to hear why playful games in love are about to turn serious.

The Moon and Neptune help you to move on from a situation which at the beginning of the month, you thought you would never hear the end of. Times have changed though and so have you Gemini. Decisions you make on Thursday and Friday are guaranteed to confirm this fact. Call my starline now to hear which liar you need to expose.

Something you thought you wanted no longer seems to be a priority to you. The reaction of a close one has forced you to sit down and think about issues you usually do a very good job of avoiding. You come out of this week happier and stronger and finally able to leave a bad influence behind. Call now for a preview of your future.

You have given up so much for your close ones but recently they have done very little to prove they would do the same for you. They are nervous though Leo and need you to confirm which direction you want to go in. The mixed signals you have sent out of late require you to do some serious translating. Call me now for lucky news on finances.

You seem to be acting more like a councillor than a friend to your close ones recently. You’re bored now though and your chart shows you may be going to some pretty extreme lengths in order to find fun and excitement. Links with the law can go well if you are willing to play by the rules. Call me now to learn an important fact about your future.

You have made some promises which are going to have to be broken. Rather than skulking around to avoid saying what needs to be said, face close ones head on. It’s sure to earn you the respect you have been so frightened of losing. Neptune has a hidden message for you in your dreams. Call me now to make sense of life.

Everything that happens this week is for a reason. Faces you see will have a reason for wanting to speak to you and work that you do holds the key to whether or not the changes you want can transpire. With this in mind, dress to impress and make sure you present yourself in the best possible way. Call now for a surprise from Venus.

You have been listening to so much gossip recently that it has become impossible for you to tell the difference between fact and fiction. Try not to speculate on a close ones new relationship either. Facts on your own affairs and that of others come to light on Friday. Call me now to hear why travel and success this week go hand in hand.

Questions need to be asked before you can make any decisions about your future. For close ones to think you will go into their offers blind is both immature and foolish. Time spent with a Scorpio can shed much light on the most important subject. Call my starline now to hear why family and children are of great relevance this week.

Stop trying to help people who won’t help themselves. You of all signs should know that progress can only be made if you have a hand held out for you to take. The pace steps up in love and it’s time for you to commit further or back away as drams on both Tuesday and Thursday should soon confirm. Call me now for a clearer view of your future.

You are playing games in love Pisces. Oh, you can deny it all you like, but it’s written all over your chart. You’d better get serious by Wednesday though when a loved one demands an answer which will change the course of your future together. Call my starline now to hear why it’s worth chasing up old contracts for career progress.

Fun for everyone at boat lift weekend

ANDERTON Boat Lift proved its attraction to waterways fans when more than 4,000 of them defied the poor weather to attend a family fun weekend. Activities ranged from free entry to the boat lift’s new exhibition to falconry displays and boat trips on the Edwin Clark. More free access to the boat lift exhibition is lined up next month when bosses celebrate National Heritage Weekend on September 13 and 14. Meanwhile, plans are taking shape to capture the structure – also known as the Cathedral Of The Canals – in verse for National Poetry Day on October 9. National Poetry Day poet-in-residence, Paul Farley, has been commissioned to write a poem about the lift for the occasion. The poem will be available to read on www.nationalpoetryday.co.uk nearer the time.

Mitsubishi slashes prices

Spirit of Boudicca in UK supercar THE fighting spirit of the Warrior Queen Boudicca has ridden out of the Anglian mists in a chariot that is shaking the world of supercars to the core.

eyxsri{w with

Ian Johnson

MITSUBISHI is taking the most drastic price-cutting action in the company’s history following a slow-down in its sales last month.

There has never been a better time to buy a Mitsubishi with the company's UK importer making cuts in the range by up to £5,000 after registrations crashed in July by more than 40 per cent. Other car companies that suffered similar declines are reducing prices too. In the case of Mitsubishi the greatest savings are on the biggest and thirstiest models including the Shogun, Grandis and L200 models, which get reductions of £5,000, £4,000 and £3,000 respectively. It addition to the unprecedented price cuts there is also free automatic transmission and low finance on offer on some models in a bid to stimulate sales. The company is targeting its slowest sellers and those that are most likely to appeal to buyers who are downsizing, starting with the Colt CZ1 in both three and five door guises, which fall by £1,000 to an all-time low of just £6,500. Stocks of previous-model Lancers are to be shifted by knocking £1,500 off the list price of automatic versions of the Equippe and £2,000 off the Elegance

auto. This makes the new price for the Lancer Equippe just £8,499. The revised L200 Raging Bull double cab pick-up loses £2,200 on manual models whilst automatics become the same price as the manual, representing a total saving of £3,000.

All Grandis people-carriers are reduced by £4,000, making a Grandis 2.4 Classic manual just £13,000. The biggest reductions are to be found on the Shogun SUV with a whopping £5,000 off long wheelbase Elegance and Diamond models, bringing down the list price of the LWB Diamond automatic to £27,700.

The Norfolk based all-British Trident company has stated that its diesel car named after Boudicca’s tribe, the Iceni can top 200mph and return up to 100mpg on current technology. It is also possible to use 100 per cent biodiesel in this amazing two-seater that can rocket to 60mph in under four seconds. The Iceni’s fuel economy, and low emissions is achieved through technology called torque multiplication that is available now and requires no further research But the company has received no backing whatsoever from the government or other agencies pledged to cut carbon emissions. I am certain that if a car of this type had been developed in France, Germany or Italy it would have received some form of national backing So Trident is going it alone and is now seeking funds to make this car happen and satisfy its customers. With a full tank of diesel the Iceni can travel around 2000 miles without needing to fill up. It is expected to cost £75,000 and is powered by a 550bhp 6.6 TD V8 sourced from the Chevrolet Silverado pick-up. On paper this seems astonishing so where is the national backing for what appears to be the future great British supercar? Ian Johnson

Vics almost post win Northwich Vics 2 York City 2

VICS showed why they should have no relegation worries this season, but also a weakness that can still occasionally land them in deep trouble, at the Marston’s Arena on Saturday. Victory against high quality opponents was only denied them by the woodwork. Moreover, their attacking play had York struggling to contain them at times. But at other times they were outnumbered at the back, their defence caught near the halfway line affording abundant space to the visitors. It was an enthralling encounter, full of chances and, of course, a goal for Jonny Allan, his first in the league since breaking his leg in January last year. It was a cracker. Scott Tynan’s clearance in the 42nd minute was controlled by Vics’ longest serving player who unhesitatingly let fly from 25 yards, the ball dipping over the stunned Josh Mimms and into the net. It was the second time

Mimms had been taken by surprise. In the 15th minute David McGurk managed to put his back-header beyond him to give Vics the lead. But Northwich twice conceded their advantage. Richard Brodie smashed home York’s first equaliser (25 minutes) and Danny McBreen’s effort took a deflection for the second (56). Allan, off Mimms’ fingers and the bar, and Mike Byrne, who twisted on the edge of the box and walloped a shot against the angle of bar and post, were very nearly heroes. But York missed a smattering of good chances, too, Brodie, Simon Russell and Anome Sodje hanging their heads in guilt. It all made for excellent entertainment with Vics fans having to make do for now with the promise their first win is not long away.

Vodkat League

BLUES moved up to second place in the Vodkat League table – only goal difference keeping Newcastle Town aloft – after a solid and unspectacular victory on Saturday. In a game dominated by two strong defences, it took a late exceptional piece of skill by Phil Mason and cool finishing by Ross Kennedy to clinch the points. The first threats came from the Fylde Coasters, Mike Langley scurrying to save from Andy Richards and skipper Dave Barnes executed the perfect tackle on Tom Bartlett, who was set to score. Dean Ennion’s free kick was saved – just – by Ryan Yeomans as United came to life. Apart from a mad scramble to clear a misplaced John Crouch header off their own line, the second half was much better

for United. They introduced 17-year-old Jacob Baptista and straight away he began to cause problems with his runs down the right wing. A cross-cum-shot from the ex-Everton starlet drifted wide of the far post as he quickly settled. On 74 minutes the Blues went ahead when Mason shook off two defenders with a turn on the edge of the area and carefully threaded the ball through to Kennedy, running in from the left, and he calmly slid the ball under the advancing Yeomans for his fourth goal of the season. United: Langley; Calland, Ridler, Barnes (Holmes 81), Riley; Couch, Ennion (Sayer 69), Hutchinson, Kennedy; Mason, McDonnell (Baptista 59). Attendance: 103 Match rating: 5/10.

ALBION picked up their second away victory in succession on Saturday due more to spirit than style. While they shone at Prescot four days earlier, they were dour and determined in the shadow of the Humber Bridge. Man of the match was Witton goalkeeper Greg Smith and there was some wholehearted defensive effort to help him out. He produced a series of super saves, but only after he was beaten in the 15th minute by prolific marksman Gary Bradshaw. It spurred Witton on and in 32 minutes Keiran Lugsden shielded the ball well and laid it back to Mark Drew who struck a blistering 25-yard shot that left custodian Mark Wilberforce clutching at thin air. Two minutes later Witton were leading. Steve Settle tormented the defence and was brought down by Liam Chapman. Drew stepped up to hit the spot kick as powerfully as his long ranger. Albion hardly got into Ferriby’s penalty area in the second half, the only real concern for Wilberforce being an attempt from the right by Ben Thornley that just curled outside the far post. Their backs were largely clustered around their own goal and when tackles and saves were not enough the woodwork came to their rescue, Rob Northen the frustrated striker. Albion’s win came at the expense of six bookings and an FA fine. Witton: Smith G.; Schwarz, Pritchard, Coyne, Donnelly; Thornley B. (Gahgan 83), Willis, Drew, Smith S.

ROUNDUp Pairing up for finals

BOWLS: Six different clubs – and three family pairings – are represented at the Norley Pairs Finals at Winsford Cons on Sunday (6.30pm). Draw: A&J Malisch (SE) v D Jones/R Gregory (Com), N Boulton/ R Jamieson (Del) v A Hough/S Bailey (WhC), K Duncalf/S Field (BT) v C Nelson/T Hulme (RP), D&D Hamlett (WhC) v G&I Williams (BT). ■ Lloyd Hotel won the Cheshire De Knoop Cup at the weekend, beating Budenberg 196-169. ■ Wharton Cons have an 83-point lead going into the final three weeks of the Mid Cheshire League season after suffering defeat by 36 chalks at 2006 champs Red Lion on Friday. ■ Norley A face Barnton CC A in the final of the Mid Cheshire Ladies League Cup at Moulton BL on September 7. In the league, leaders Wharton Cons beat second-placed Castle A by 38 shots and now lead by 35 with three games to go. ■ Gary Ellis repeated his 2004 success to win the £2,570 Wharton Cons Open on Sunday. The Whitefield ace beat Warrington’s Tommy Johnstone 31-23 in the final of the Coors Brewery-sponsored tournament.

Carl comes so close

CYCLING: Carl Ruebotham, the Winningtonbased Team Swift rider, missed out on a national title at the weekend. The former Weaver Valley CC man covered 283.89 miles in a 12-hour race at Great Chesterford, Essex, with the winner, Ian Cammish, covering 285.54. Alan Kemp won the national championship for his age category at Napton, near Rugby, on Saturday. The League of Veteran Cyclists event attracts many former professionals and ex-major title holders. Kemp broke away with former British number one Pete Greenwood on the last of four laps of a hilly circuit and with his strong sprint up the final hill held on to win by less than a length. Sunday’s club run leaves Hartford RBL Club for Wincle at 9.30am. Club nights are at the same venue on Mondays (8.30pm). Newcomers are welcome at both events.

League season opens

HOCKEY: Winnington Park warm up for the Cheshire Under 21s Championships on September 7 when they take on Wilmslow at Middlewich High School tonight (8pm). On Saturday, the league season opens with Park 1st and 2nd both at Sir John Deane’s College (1pm and 2.30pm) against Didsbury Northern. Training is at the same venue on Tuesdays (7.30-9pm) and junior coaching is at Weaverham High School on Mondays (6.30-7.30pm), switching to Leftwich High School (U14s on Mondays, U16s Wednesdays) from October. Further details can be found via e-mail at winningtonparkhc@hotmail.co.uk or by telephoning club chairman Ted Broadhurst on 01606 74051.

Catching on for charity

ANGLING: Barnton-Frodsham AC raised funds for the Macmillan Nurses Appeal on Saturday with a teams-of-four competition at Heesom’s Pool. A combined weight of 26-3-0 gave victory to ‘The ‘Plonkers’ (Mick Cowley, Dave Cowley, Peter Moore, Chris Parry). The runners-up slot was filled by the ‘Castermen’ (Stan Atkinson, Bob Hughes, Trevor Jones, Arthur Kenney) with 25-10-0. Bob Hughes, 12-1-0, won Wednesday’s match on the River Weaver at Anderton; Peter Moore took the money with 6-1-0 on the Weaver at Red Lion on Sunday and Robina and Mike Smith, 14-3-0, won the ladies and gents pairs match at Heesom’s Pool on the same day.

Park show spirit of survival

WINNINGTON Park, after sinking deeper and deeper into relegation trouble, suddenly gave themselves a chance of survival in the County League with a dramatic win at Marple. However, they could still be swapping places with Oakmere who moved nearer promotion from the Cheshire League, even though they only drew. Weaverham thrashed Northwich and Winsford easily beat Barnton in the Division Two derbies. ECB Premier

Nantwich 207 Oulton Park 208-3

AFTER missing out on what would have been their fourth successive title Oulton ended Nantwich’s hopes too. Nathan Dumelow (4-53) and Craig Williamson (4-65) kept Nantwich within reach and Ben Spendlove (66), Louis Bentley (56) and Danny Leech (50no) put Oulton in cruise control. Oulton 2nds, fighting for their Division One lives, were bowled out for 169 (Andy Mills 46, Roger Thompson 39, Steve Yates 22) by Birkenhead Park, who coasted to victory with 20 overs to spare. ) Division Two

Park were hardly any happier at the crease initially. They were 14-3 and 79-8 and fearing another defeat

and certain relegation. But then some sensible batting by Shaun O’Neill and Craig Walsh added an invaluable 58 partnership and took Winnington to the brink of victory. It was then that Walsh fell and, to add to the drama, O’Neill was dropped with eight needed. The tension was broken by Cowell who hit two fours to keep Park in with a chance of survival. On a damp wicket at the Rec, Winnington 2nds hit 168ao (Jason Hayes 36, Kedar Dhopate 32, Greg McKeown 30) against Marple. Marple were bowled out for 159, Keith Jones (4-16) and Ian Connor (3-26) the heroes. MELLER BRAGGINS CHESHIRE LEAGUE Division One

Cholmondeley 147-8 Oakmere 178-8dec

OAKMERE moved much closer to promotion, not so much by virtue of their draw but because rivals Congleton were beaten. Paul Yearsley (47) got the Oakmere innings off to a solid start and Stewart Eaton (52) carried the baton later on. Eaton (1-14) struck with the very first ball before suffering a hamstring injury. An all-spin attack of Pete Hutchinson (2-50 from 17 overs) and Nick Guest (2-30) then followed before Craig Phelan (2-28) produced a fiery spell which saw vital catches go down late on, but Cholmondeley, resigned to relegation, played out time. Phil Nelson starred with ball and bat as Oakmere 2nds overcome Cholmondeley 2nds at Overdale

Lane. The visitors were bowled out for 122 (Nelson 7-57) and Oakmere made 123-3 (Nelson 43).

Neil Gerrard (54) and Alex Nash (35) were Weaverham’s main rungetters.

DAVENHAM were bowled out in 31.1 overs and Malpas needed only 22 overs to overhaul them. Division Two

WINSFORD beat and leapfrogged Barnton. They put themselves into mid-table safety and caused Barnton some relegation doubts. Barnton struck early, removing Andy Cooper, but Martin Barrett and Colin Dean upped the tempo and took the score to 87. Dean (33) became the first of Paul Coot’s three victims, Barratt (50) the second. Skipper Barry Crellin hit a fine undefeated 41 including two huge sixes and Gareth Whitney (21) also lofted the last two balls over the boundary. The last five overs yielded 58 runs. Andy Beswick (3-32), Crellin (2-9), James Tierney (2-24) and Dave Tierney (2-25) took Barnton apart with Coot (33) the only batsman proving stubborn. CHESHIRE BS CHESHIRE ALLIANCE

Malpas 110-2 Davenham 108ao

Northwich 73ao Weaverham 149ao

WEAVERHAM skipper Rob McMillan took 8-32 to destroy the fragile Northwich batting and catapult his side into the title chase. But it is a worrying time for Northwich who collapsed for the second week running to a total below 100 and they have largely squandered a 40-point lead. Dave Pinnington (38) and Greg Airns (27) dominated the ineffectual Northwich pace attack and proved mainstays for Weaverham as spinners Stuart Hayes (5-32) and Matt Jamieson (4-49) brought the scoring in check. Only Martyn East (43) showed determination to reach double figures as the home wickets tumbled after tea. The other two Northwich wickets fell to Chris Hemmings, both caught in the slips by the man of the day – Rob McMillan, who bowled 19 overs to record eight maidens in his eight-wicket haul. Northwich 2nds finished in the rain as winners. They dismissed Runcorn for 108 (Mike Whitehead 4-30, Craig Douglas 2-6, Matt Lightburn 2-12) and Northwich hit the target at 109-4, Lee Evans making light of the incessant rain for 60. Kenny Roberts produced his best figure of the season, 6-69 off 19 overs, as Weaverham 2nds, 195-7, beat Alvanley, 194-9dec.

HARTFORD were frustrated by the weather for the second week running, with rain denying them the chance of another victory to keep them in touch with the promotion race. They elected to bat and James Hodkinson (23) made a brisk start before Matt Shinkfield scored a dashing 51. Martin Pickup played the anchor, contributing 29 runs, before Rob Whittle chipped in with a cameo 26 in the final overs. Rob Stimson struck with a couple of early wickets, but Hartford did not get the chance to complete the task.

BATCHELOR DENIES CONSORTIUM LINK Football

By John Buckley

JOHN Batchelor, the controversial former owner of York City, says he is not part of the consortium aiming to buy the Northwich Vics site at Wincham.

But the colourful figure has been involved in talks with Vics owner Jim Rushe and watched recent Northwich games, including those against York City and Mansfield, a club he tried to buy earlier this year. The sale, says Rushe, “is no further advanced” than it was last week. He said then he had expected the deal to be completed within days. Batchelor took York into administration and is a hate figure among fans who reckon he allegedly made money from his association with the club. Supporters at Mansfield campaigned against him buying their club, whom he wanted to rename Harchester after the Sky TV football programme. In an interview with noted journalist David Conn, he admitted: “I do asset strip.” Batchelor told the Chronicle: “I am interested in getting back into football, but I have no involvement with the consortium.” Rushe said: “When the names of the consortium are revealed John’s will not be among them. “I have sole control of Northwich Vics and I will not sign up to anything where Vics will suffer. “Anyone can buy the land, so I would rather work with a consortium and have some control.” Mike Connett is believed to be asking just over £3m for the nine acres he acquired from administrators Begbies Traynor for £250,000 five years ago. The plan is for the consortium to develop the land, while receiving rent from Vics, who in turn would take over the catering rights now owned by Connett. Eventually they could buy the stadium.

Chance to go top for United Vodkat League

WINSFORD United have a rearranged home game against Abbey Hey on Saturday – and could be top by the final whistle. If they win they will leapfrog the only teams above them, Newcastle and Glossop, who are not involved in league action. United hope to have midfielder Mick Graa back after a leg injury and defender Tony Sayer, out since the autumn with cruciate ligaments damage, is available again and made an appearance from the subs’ bench against Squires Gate. Former Everton starlet, 17-year-old Jacob Baptista, made an exciting debut as a sub in the same game and may be given his chance to stake a permanent berth on the right wing.

ALLAN HEAVEN: Jonny Allan lines up another shot after celebrating his first league goal for nearly 18 months against York. SB230808vics-04.

Late winner thwarts comeback Mansfield Town 3 Vics 2

VICS snatched defeat from the jaws of a tremendous comeback on Monday. They were outplayed in the first half and two goals adrift at the break. But they bounced back with a super second-half show and headed into added time level. Then disaster truck. They only halfcleared a free kick, the ball was returned to the danger zone and Mark Stallard netted from 12 yards. Two goals by Aaron O’Connor underlined Mansfield’s dominance

Blue Square Premier from the kick off. He scored in 25 and 29 minutes, a prod and a well-struck drive, after earlier being denied by Scott Tynan. Vics replaced Matt Crowell with Jamie Mullan and the midfielder stormed off the pitch. But Vics were galvanised over their half-time cuppa by manager Dino Maamria and returned to action united. Allan had a shot blocked by Alan O’Hare from Richie Sutton’s cross before Darryn Stamp headed home

Chris Flynn’s inswinging corner on the hour. In the 86th minute Lee Steele bulged the Mansfield net from 25 yards, but they were deflated by Stallard’s strike three minutes into injury time. Northwich: Tynan, Brown, Welch, Roberts, Sutton (Aspin 57), Byrne, Crowell (Mullan 33), Flynn, Williams (Steele 57), Stamp, Allan. Attendance: 2,741 Match Rating: 7/10 ■ Vics are at home to crowd-pullers Oxford United on Tuesday (7.45pm) and are at Crawley on Saturday.

Albion twice see red in first defeat Witton Albion 0 Hednesford Town 2

WITTON lost three points and two men on Monday. It was their first defeat and one of those narrow margin thrashings sometimes teams who are never in the hunt get away with. Their two red cards follow six bookings at North Ferriby, though the dismissal of Gary Scott in injury time was due to mean refereeing rather than dirty play. Ref Peter Branks couldn’t get his card out of his pocket quick enough to show Liam Coyne in the 70th minute for his thuggish reaction to a late challenge by Anthony Maguire. Scott conceded a penalty by

UniBond League tripping Ross Dyer and it was the kind of offence most officials nowadays are content to let the spot-kick be the punishment. Ross Draper converted. After a bright start in which Mark Drew pulled clever strings in midfield and tried long distance shots, Albion quickly faded. They had no ball winner in midfield, no punch up front and were never comfortable at the back, where Coyne looked uncertain as to his role. Hednesford could easily have scored five or six and would have, too, but for the wayward finishing of Tyrone Barnett and Dyer,

who missed a couple of sitters each. Dyer raced through the middle to beat the advancing Greg Smith in the 40th minute. Witton: G Smith; Scott, Coyne, Pritchard, Donnelly; B Thornley (Awang 18/Lugsden 37), Drew, S Smith, Gahgan (Thacker 78); Settle, R Thornley. Attendance: 481 Match Rating: 5/10 ■ Albion boss Nigel Deeley aims to sign two centre backs, with one making his debut at Guiseley on Saturday when Liam Coyne begins a three-match ban. He also promised to address apparent indiscipline after six yellow and two red cards in two matches. Witton are at home to Ilkeston Town on Tuesday.

Roberts lifts another top crown Powerlifting

PETE Roberts is now a double British champion. The 54-year-old powerlifter, who also happens to be a world champion as well, has added the British Weight Lifting Association title to the British Drug Free version he won last May. Roberts matched his World Masters Championship lifts gram for gram to win the BWLA event at Manchester in a grand total 460kg. Three weeks earlier Roberts, of Manora Road, Northwich, broke the British Singles deadlift record with a new best 197kg. The World Championships in the United States in November is next. Roberts, a supervisor with Arriva, Winsford, is being sponsored by his employers for the trip. He said: “It’s hard training from now on. I want to defend my world title with a new world record. “Next year I move on to another category and there’s a lot more records that will need breaking.”
