Former councillor Doreen Kerrigan also praised the plan as “without doubt, one of the best and innovative schemes to come into Bootle”.

Jane Dawe, the Community Partnership Manager at SAFE, said #destinationbootle is “the largest of its kind in the UK.” She added: ““We've been talking to local residents, community groups, small businesses and public services throughout this entire process, which has been going on for several years.

Jamie Carragher and Mark King at the Brunswick centre

Jamie back at his old youth club to present life-saving defibrillator Jamie Carragher went ‘back to his roots’ to deliver a defibrillator to The Brunswick Youth and Community Centre.

The former Liverpool defender turned TV soccer pundit grew up playing at the ‘The Brunny’, on Marsh Lane, and he was back there on Thursday, February 6 to hand over a defibrillator.

The potentially-life saving piece of medical equipment

will be accessible for any of the 600 people who attend the centre each week.

Carragher and his charity the 23 Foundation has managed to fundraise more than £250,000 and through a partnership with the Oliver King Foundation, want to put defibrillators across amateur football grounds and other sites throughout Merseyside.

Ambitious £30m scheme for canal-side area is the ‘largest of its kind in the UK’ From page 1

Brian Dawe speaking at the #destinationbootle launch event

“This neighbourhood has been shaped over the years through many consultation events, it is a truly community-led vision. We are working with Liverpool cost consultants RLB on this hugely ambitious £30m scheme, which is the largest of its kind in the UK.” The masterplan was officially launched at a recent event held by SAFE when founder of the company Brian Dawe shared his vision with local residents and key stakeholders.

Jane added: “For over a decade SAFE Regeneration and its partners have worked tirelessly within the Bootle community to design and develop a masterplan for the

New golf driving range set for Bootle Golf Course Report by Henry James SEFTON is to enhance its golf offer with the addition of two new driving ranges in the borough - one in Bootle - which are forecast to generate a surplus of more than £1m over a 10-year period.

New driving range facilities will be constructed at Sefton’s two municipal sites at Bootle Golf Course and Southport Golf Links which, says the council, will ‘broaden the accessibility and affordability of the game in the region’.

Work will start on a new driving range at Bootle Golf Course in the spring of this year, with the facility expected to be completed during summer 2020.

Defib presented to ‘The Brunny’ From page 1

The Oliver King Foundation was set-up in memory of Mark King’s son, Oliver, who died in 2011 when he was 12 after suffering a cardiac arrest and it was later found he had Sudden Arrhythmic Death Syndrome (SADS).

Mark was present at the Brunswick to help Carragher present the centre with a defibrillator.

Carragher is now asking other sports clubs and centres to get in touch with the 23 Foundation if they would like a defib.

He said: “I’m delighted that the 23 Foundation is now

working together with the Oliver King Foundation to provide defibrillators to any youth club or sports hub in Merseyside.

The first one was installed in the Brunswick club. Get in touch with the 23 Foundation if your club needs one.”

A spokesperson for The Brunswick Youth and Community Centre said: “The Brunswick have over 600 people attending the centre every week and this is a very important vital piece of equipment for the centre as we have so many young and old people playing sport each week.”

This follows a consultation in autumn 2019 with local residents and golf players who highlighted the importance of new practice facilities and investment in course infrastructure.

Phase 2 of the project will see a new facility at Southport Golf Links. This has been approved in principle, subject to a consultation in the coming months.

The ranges will both include a dedicated coaching bay, with the floodlit facilities enabling participants to play into the evening on a ‘pay as you play’ basis.

Sefton Council’s Cabinet formally approved plans to invest £536,360 in the new facilities.

The council has said round and membership prices at both courses have been held at last year’s fees for 2020. All existing facilities will remain open to members and non-members during any works.

Plans are also in development to upgrade the buildings at both golf courses to offer improved changing facilities, shop, hospitality and food and drink offerings.

Sefton Council is hoping to attract more young golfers to the two courses and will be offering freeplay to under 16s for a period later in 2020.

Cllr Ian Moncur, Sefton Council’s cabinet member for health and wellbeing, said: “Driving ranges are a great facility for people to learn, practice and play golf.

“The new driving ranges will enhance Sefton’s municipal courses, which provide affordable, good quality facilities for people to enjoy the sport.

“The project supports Sefton Council’s 2030 Vision and will encourage new people young and old to participate in golf. The surplus the driving ranges are forecast to generate will enable the council to invest further in front-line services.”

regeneration of the canal-side area.

“The result is a neighbourhood which has been shaped by local people, designed for local needs and will be transformative for the canal-side and beyond.” #destinationbootle has received

over £700,000 worth of funding support from Power to Change, Homes England and the Liverpool City Region Combined Authorities Special Investment Fund.

The next step in the process will be to submit a planning application for the work to begin.

Council accused of secrecy over Strand’s financial position Report by Tom Martin SEFTON Council has been urged to “come clean” over the financial position of the Strand Shopping Centre after a local councillor was left frustrated when trying to get answers.

Cllr Sir Ron Watson has been so concerned over the local authority ’s management of the Bootlebased shopping centre that he filed a Freedom of Information request in a desperate effort to get more information on its finances.

He claims the council responded by sending him a “heavily redacted” 50-page document, which “blacked out” a lot of the key details.

Cllr Watson says he has already failed to get answers when raising the issue at council meetings and submitting ‘Notices of Motion’.

He said: “I took this as far as I could requesting the document on a redacted basis and the legal department had to concede that this should be provided but its

Time to come clean, says Sir Ron, after ‘heavily redacted’ document is sent to him

page after page after page of blacked out figures and information.

“I also tried at the council and a question to the council leader to have a current financial statement based on the fact that we are three quarters through the council year but once again this information was refused.”

Sefton Council bought the Strand Shopping Centre in 2017 and the local authority claimed the money was funded via a loan, which was at no expense to Sefton taxpayers and that income generated by the centre will more than cover the loan repayment costs and the centre’s running costs.

However, last year the Champion reported how the Royal

Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) valued the centre at £27.2m - £5m less than it was bought for.

The RICS report blamed “significant structural changes" to the retail industry and the use of Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVAs), which allows a retailer to opt out of lease agreements with landlords on underperforming stores and vacate them entirely.

Despite the drop in valuation of the Strand, the council said at the time that “any change in valuation, whether it goes up or down, does not have an impact on the council’s overall financial standing, health or ability to fund services, as it is a notional adjustment.”

Rimrose Valley group hold peaceful protest against road plan treated with respect.

And last week’s protest was peaceful with campaigners saying workers allowed them to move in and around the equipment to take pictures.

Stuart Bennett from the Save Rimrose Valley group said: “We held the demonstration not against the workers, but against the politicians and organisations who are allowing this to happen.

“Road building on this scale is hugely destructive, to our health and the environment.

“It will drive up carbon emissions at a time we need to be reducing them.

“Decisions are being made for the benefit of powerful, profit-driven companies and the rights and needs of the people are being ignored.

“We are urging our supporters to join us in sending a message to Highways England and the government to leave Rimrose Valley alone.”

Dozens of protestors from the Save Rimrose Valley gathered with placards on Tuesday, February 4 to state their opposition to the road plans.

Work is currently being carried out in the park with boreholes being dug to test if the land is suitable for a road to be built.

The Champion has reported how some of the workers have been verbally abused by park users even threatened with violence.

Flat owners’ fury at being forced to pay £4,500 for roof work Report by Kenny Parker PROPERTY owners are furious that they are being forced to pay £4,500 each to replace the roof on their flats - even though they say the work does not need doing.

Owners of flats at an estate off Liverpool Road in Lydiate have been told by One Vision Housing (OVH), who own the leases to the properties, that the roofs need replacing for ‘safety reasons.’

Cash boost for group to buy new media equipment Report by Tom Martin A SOCIAL enterprise in Bootle which supports young people will be able to buy new furniture and media equipment after receiving a cash boost.

Conquer Life CIC, on Stanley Road, works to give youngsters a “positive lifestyle” in order to “raise their aspirations and develop the emotional resiliency to overcome disadvantage.”

The grassroots project has been given the financial backing of £7,963 from Sefton Council through its Community Transition Fund, which gives grants to local causes in the borough.

The money is expected to help pay for new furniture at their community building as well as media equipment for young people.

A report published by the council states: “The group are seeking funding to purchase new equipment to renovate their youth room and purchase multimedia equipment and furniture

to transform the youth room into a modern, interactive, multimedia suite “When the group moved into their building in August 2018 they had no furniture or budget and relied on donations of furniture from volunteers. All of their equipment was either second hand or discounted.

“They are at the stage now where they really need to replace these old and outdated items with new and up to date versions. Without investment their current furniture will continue to need repairs and become unfit for purpose.

“The group realise the huge difference that new equipment will make. With new, fit for purpose media equipment they can provide their young people with the tools and the knowledge to learn new things and discover new talents and potential career paths.

“The group have a good working relationship with their neighbours Linacre Bridge Community Hub, May Logan Centre and Linacre Primary School. They will use equipment such as the cameras, projector and P.A. system at community events with their partners.”

Man banned from football stadiums arrested near Anfield A FOOTBALL fan from Netherton who has been banned from all stadiums was arrested before the Merseyside Derby last month after he was spotted near Anfield.

Ryan Ferguson, 20, of Barberry Crescent, was told in February 2019 that he is not allowed to come within one mile of any football stadium four hours before kick-off, during play, or four hours after the match has ended.

Despite this five-year court order, he was seen on Spellow Lane, near Anfield, before Liverpool hosted Everton in the FA Cup on January 5 and officers arrested him.

He appeared at South South Magistrates Court last week when it was heard this was only one of two separate breaches of his football banning order.

The second breach was when Ferguson, who supports Tranmere Rovers, was found guilty of travelling to Birkenhead in October last year to watch his side play Shrewsbury Town at Prenton Park.

This breached a condition which stated he must not travel to a town, city or place where Tranmere Rovers are playing a regulated football match.

As a result, a judge at South Sefton Magistrates Court handed Ferguson an eight-week sentence suspended for 12 months, a 12 month supervision order, 100 hours unpaid work, alongside £85 fine in costs and a £122 victim surcharge.

Inspector Iain Wyke said: “Merseyside Police will continue to monitor those who are subject to banning orders, and deal robustly with anyone

Ryan Ferguson

who breaches these conditions.

“As always, we will do all we can to ensure our policing of any football match puts the safety of supporters first. We will always make sure we do everything we can to keep both football fans and local communities safe.

"We will continue to work closely with all of our local clubs to make matches safe and enjoyable occasions for everyone.”

Police make arrests in ‘County Lines’ crackdown Report by Tom Martin BOOTLE was one of four areas in Merseyside and Wales targeted by police as they step up their crackdown on cross border drugs supply and the criminal exploitation of young and vulnerable people.

Officers carried out warrants at six address in Bootle and Kirkby as well as Bagillt and Holywell in Wales on Tuesday, February 4 and arrested seven people in total.

It was part of the ongoing campaign against County Lines Organised Crime Groups (OCGs), which over the past

few weeks has resulted in a number of arrests and seizures of drugs, weapons and mobile phones.

Following the operation, Detective Inspector Allison Woods said: “The concentrated activity of our officers, working together with North Wales Police, has led to the cutting of two County Lines run by Organised Crime Groups from Merseyside. County Lines are run off the backs of vulnerable people targeted by ruthless criminals.

“This initiative, codenamed Project Medusa, hits the criminals hard, but when it comes to the young and vulnerable people, who have been criminally exploited, we ensure that

they are treated sensitively and with understanding.

“We will do everything within our power to sever the County Lines that blight our communities and the recently created Violence Reduction Unit (which consists of representatives from Merseyside Police, the Health Service, all five local authorities), is looking at long term strategies to see how a public health approach can help prevent people from becoming involved in County Lines.”

Anyone with information which could assist the police investigation into County Lines criminality can DM @MerPolCC, call 101 or contact the Crimestoppers line anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Posters about menace of scrambler bikes earn children Disneyland treat Report by Tom Martin CHILDREN from primary schools in Bootle and Litherland will enjoy a trip to Disneyland Paris as a reward from Merseyside Police for taking part in an anti-scrambler bike campaign.

Youngsters were tasked by officers last year with creating posters to help raise awareness of the dangers of the off-road bikes and police visited their classrooms to give talks and hold activities.

On Tuesday, February 4, the 15 winners of the poster competition from St Elizabeth’s, The Grange, St Philip’s , English Martyrs and Lander Road primary schools were given certificates and then surprised with a holiday to Disneyland!

The children were given their prize by former Liverpool, Everton and England goalkeeper Rachel Brown-Finnis.

Woman who posted image of James Bulger killer is spared jail Report by Tom Martin

Members of the Bootle in Bloom team preparing for last year’s competition

Bootle to be spruced up for In Bloom competition BOOTLE residents are being invited to get involved in the town’s entry in the prestigious 2020 Royal Horticultural Society North West in Bloom event.

Last year community organisations and hardworking volunteers, supported by Green Sefton, worked together to green up local parks and streets in preparation for the town’s first-ever In Bloom entry.

The judges visited community gardens and growing projects in July, and subsequently awarded Bootle a bronze medal, just two points short of a silver award.

Buoyed up by this initial success the Bootle in Bloom team are now determined to go all out for silver in this year’s competition, and are looking for local volunteers to help them.

Ruth Livesey of Regenerus, who co-ordinates the network, said: “Getting involved in growing and planting activities not only makes Bootle look great, but also makes people feel better too!

“Working as part of the Bootle in Bloom team

helps everyone to achieve more and helps us all to be proud of our town. We would be delighted to welcome anyone who wants to get involved and help out.”

There are many opportunities for residents to get involved, from helping out in a community garden to working as part of the team planting on the streets.

For example, staff and volunteers from local social enterprises The Gateway Collective and Lotus Brook are meeting every month to green up Stanley Road as part of a project funded by the People’s Health Trust, and would welcome the support of local people.

A WOMAN from Wales has escaped prison after she posted an image on social media showing one of James Bulger's killers.

Tina McGuire, 53, of Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, admitted contempt of court by breaching a 2001 worldwide injunction which bans the publication of anything purporting to reveal the identities, appearance or whereabouts of killers Jon Venables and Robert Thompson.

McGuire was accused of posting an image on Facebook allegedly showing Venables, along with information on his new name and the prison where he is currently being held for possessing child abuse images.

The Facebook post was shared 627 times by other social media users.

At a recent High Court hearing in London she was sentenced to eight months in prison, suspended for 15 months, and was also ordered to pay legal fees of £3,000.

Lord Justice Davis, sitting with Mrs Justice May, said the case against McGuire was "close to the line" for an immediate prison sentence.

But he added that in light of "the early, frank admission, the remorse, the stated and evidenced determination not to infringe again and the psychiatric report" the sentence could be suspended.

The court heard this was the second time McGuire had attempted to post information purportedly about Venables.

In November 2017, McGuire posted on Facebook a picture purporting to be of Venables as an adult with a caption which encouraged others to "share this as much as possible.”

That post was shared nearly 130,000 times, liked 2,800 times and received 3,400 comments.

James Bulger

John Hipkin, representing McGuire, accepted "this is an extremely serious matter" but said there was "a real prospect of rehabilitation". He added that McGuire had since withdrawn from all forms of social media.

James Bulger was killed in February 1993 after the two-year-old was abducted by ten-year-olds Venables and Thompson from the Strand Shopping Centre.

Report by Tom Martin TWO men from Seaforth and Crosby were part of an intimidating drugs gang who carried out a “significant level of dealing� to revellers in Liverpool city centre.

A seven-month investigation by police resulted in 20 men being found guilty at Liverpool Crown Court on Friday, February 7.

Liam Jones, 22, of Sandy Road, Seaforth was sentenced to 14 months in prison, suspended for 18 months for offering to supply cocaine.

A 17-year-old male from Crosby was sentenced to a two-year rehabilitation order for conspiracy to supply cocaine.

There were tougher sentences for other gang members, including 12 who have been jailed for a combined 50 years.

Police described the gang’s drugs operation as a “significant level of dealing� in some of the most popular areas of the city including Concert Square, Fleet Street, Wood Street, Slater Street and Bold Street.

As well as drug dealing to clubbers, they were also linked to violent assaults, robberies, thefts and knife crime.

The network of offenders, often seen wearing sportswear, were captured on CCTV dealing to people on nights out.

They often used nitrous oxide capsules to blow up balloons, in a bid to get the attention of potential customers, and younger members of the group acted as lookouts and runners.

They would often be seen escorting customers to their drug dealing locations.

Some of the offenders sold Class A drugs including cocaine and ecstasy to undercover officers, as well as paracetamol they claimed was Class A drugs.

Intimidation and violence was used against some customers who later challenged the group, possibly after discovering they had been sold paracetamol.

Through surveillance and investigative work, police established the roles played by all the defendants in their drug dealing enterprise.

Comprehensive telephone enquires established ‘graft’ phones had been used by the offenders to send out more than 13,500 text messages to customers to advertise the sale of drugs, and the locations and times they would be available.

In addition, evidence of payphone kiosks being used to call the ‘graft’ phones was identified.

After extensive evidence of their offending had been gathered, the offenders were arrested during a series of early morning warrants in May and June 2019.

Detective Sergeant Tim Farley said: “Liverpool has a hard-earned and well-deserved reputation for being a safe place to enjoy a night out. We share the determination of residents, businesses and visitors to ensure it stays that way. “Drug dealers who bring with them dangerous drugs, and violently enforce their illicit trade, risk damaging that status and the city’s economic wellbeing. The fact these offenders have been sentenced today means the city is a safer place to go out and have a good time. “As well as identifying those responsible for selling drugs and bringing them to justice, we deploy a wide range of tactics in the city centre including high visibility patrols to deter criminal activity, Section 60 dispersal orders and covert patrols.�

Arranging and paying for a funeral in advance Pre-arrange and pre-pay for your perfect goodbye Planning for later life is never an easy thing to do, but it can be comforting and reassuring to know that you’ve taken care of your arrangements, including your funeral.

By taking some time now, you can provide both financial and practical help for your loved ones in the future.

If you’ve ever had to arrange a funeral for someone, you’ll know just how much there is to decide and how difficult it can be.

We deal with funeral plans on behalf of customers on a daily basis and see the difference they can make. What’s more, making funeral arrangements needn’t be as distressing as you might think.

Funeral costs are steadily increasing Funeral costs continue to rise and further increases are predicted in coming years so it makes sense to make financial provision in advance.

The funeral plans we offer guarantee that the funeral director’s costs will be covered, no matter how much prices rise. As long as we carry out your funeral and your requirements don’t change, your family won’t be asked to pay a penny more for our funeral director’s costs regardless of how long you live or what happens to our costs in the meantime.

You can also include an allowance towards third party costs such as the fees for cremation or burial, medical fees and payment to a minister or officiant.

Blade manufacturer to move into new warehouse at Mersey Reach Report by Tom Martin

Volunteers from Liver Care

Charity shop staff dress to impress for fundraiser!

VOLUNTEERS from a Bootle charity shop dressed up as their favourite Alice in Wonderland characters to raise money.

Inspired by the eccentric outfits, the locals donned their own unusual clothes for a day of work at Liver Care charity shop, in the Strand Shopping Centre.

A spokesperson said: “We had a great day and the main thing was that we managed raise £255 for charity.”

Liver Care is a domiciliary care provider and currently offers care to a large and growing group of service users with complex physical and mental health needs.

ONE of the modern warehouses to be built at the £20million Mersey Reach development in Netherton will be taken over by a local precision blade manufacturer.

Hardy UK, currently based on Fernhill Road, in Bootle, will relocate to the 22,066 sq ft facility at Mersey Reach, off Dunningsbridge Road, when construction is finished in August.

The Champion has previously reported how Mersey Reach is being built by developer Chancerygate and will include six large warehouses, a petrol station and a coffee shop Hardy UK, which was founded in 1854, designs and manufactures precision blades for the global leather industry, with 95% of sales being exports.

Hardy UK managing director, Peter Oxspring, said: “During the 2015 takeover the board identified early on that, in order to sustain and then grow Hardy UK as the largest blade manufacturer in the leather industry, a relocation of premises would be essential.

“Having considered many options with the help of the team at Mathews & Goodman, both within the area and further afield, Chancerygate made a compelling offer and we were ultimately convinced that Mersey Reach would be the right place to call home for the next phase of the development of Hardy UK.” Hardy UK employees are scheduled to relocate to Mersey Reach by August 2020 and the company estimates the new facility will ultimately increase production capacity and open employment opportunities in both production and administration positions.

Phase one of Mersey Reach comprises four units totalling 112,500 sq ft and the second phase totals 90,000 sq ft.

Once finished, the site on Dunningsbridge Road

An artist’s impression of how the new warehouse will look

will create up to 350 jobs and Chancerygate claim it will have a £5.5million “positive impact on the area”.

Another of the four units in phase one has already been pre-let to builders merchants Selco Builders Warehouse.

The remaining two units are 12,035 sq ft and 42,518 sq ft. A two-acre plot on the site will also be developed into a fuel station, drive-through Starbucks and Spar retail store by Blackburn-based Euro Garages.

Chancerygate development director and head of the company’s Warrington office, Mike Walker, added: “It is excellent to welcome a long-established local business such as Hardy UK to Mersey Reach. This is north Liverpool’s first new, multi-unit logistics park to be built for years. We are pleased to work closely with Sefton Council and other stakeholders to bring more business, jobs and other opportunities to the area.”

MerseyReach and Hardy UK are supported by Sefton Council’s business growth team, Investand employment and training Sefton, opportunities will be given to nearby residents through the Sefton@Work programme.

Councillor Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council cabinet member for regeneration and skills, said: “We are delighted with the training and employment opportunities the new MerseyReach development will bring our residents. It is an exciting time for the borough, with new developments and investment that will benefit everyone across Sefton.”

Peter Dowd, MP for Bootle, added: “The Mersey Reach development represents great news for the area and we are delighted that Chancerygate has recognised the potential of the location. Thanks to the close partnership working between Chancerygate and Sefton Council, Mersey Reach will create new job and training opportunities for local residents, including people who are looking for work.”

MP backs call for bigger tax breaks for small brewers Report by Henry James A CALL by a small brewery in Maghull for an increase in the tax break that helps them compete with bigger rivals has been backed

by MP Bill Esterson in a Parliamentary debate.

The Small Brewer Relief gives a discount on beer duty of 50% to breweries producing fewer than 5,000 hectolitres per year, with tapered relief up to 10,000 hectolitres.

Mr Esterson spoke in a debate in Parliament urging the Treasury to change the rules to allow small breweries to grow.

Reminder to fly the Union Jack for Prince Andrew’s birthday ‘does not apply’ in Sefton as it is ‘flown every day’ anyway Report by Danielle Thompson REMINDERS for town halls across the UK to fly the Union Jack to mark Prince Andrew’s Birthday do ‘not apply’ in Sefton, as they fly the flag every day, anyway.

Councils have been officially reminded to across the UK to fly the flag on February 19, to celebrate the Royal’s birthday

– but politicians and public have slammed the Whitehall order, which they say puts protocol before principles.

The disgraced prince is not currently performing royal duties amid an ongoing scandal over his friendship with millionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and claims that then-teenager Virginia Roberts was coerced into having sex with Prince Andrew in 2001 and 2002.

He said that he was at a birthday party

at the Woking branch of Pizza Express on one of the nights the pair are said to have slept together.

The order is now likely to be withdrawn, after the prime minister’s spokesman described it as ‘an administrative email about a long-standing policy.’

A spokesperson for Sefton Council said that it ‘doesn’t apply’ to them they fly the flag 365 days a year and don’t raise it for special occasions.

Air pollution near schools Dogs should be kept on Beach fees should is poisoning our children leads in all of our parks fund lifeguards Sefton Council needs to get its act together regarding air pollution around schools in the borough.

We don’t need AECOM to tell us air quality around schools is so poor it is damaging children’s health irreversibly.

As an example, every day around 9am and then at 3pm you have gridlock around three schools, St Nicholas, Ursuline and St Mary’s prep, which are within 30 minutes of each other.

People are sitting outside these schools in their cars with the engines running and twice a day the children are sucking in toxic

exhaust fumes.

One can actually taste the fumes.

All schools should be air quality management areas.

This problem has been evident for decades.

We do not want future generations’ poor health on our consciences.

Come on councillors and MPs, it’s time to get your act together stop these innocents being poisoned every time they go to school.

Ted Windsor, By email

I am concerned that not enough is being done to ensure dogs are kept on leads on footpaths near to parks.

There are separate fenced off play areas for both children and for dogs which benefits pets, and the people’s safety.

But the footpaths on the park are labelled with laminated notices ‘Lead Free Area’?

Where is the rationale here?

Children and dogs are kept separate in their play areas but are ‘all in it together ’ on adjoining footpaths.

Children and dogs need keeping separate, at all times, to be safe.

More needs to be done to improve

safety for all the walkers into and around the parks.

As an example, Coronation Park, is unstaffed, and surrounded by schools and colleges whose pupils and staff walk through the park daily, as do families with children and infants and dog walkers.

I have seen unleaded dogs running in aggressively at me and a toddler from Coronation Road.

My dog has been attacked while entering the park from St Luke’s Road by an unleaded, uncollared dog.

In response to the article headlined Lifeguards Needed to Patrol the beaches.

It is unbelievable that we are charged to go onto our local beach and yet there is no mention of funding or donating any of the money that is collected from these charges.

Surely this is something that should be looked into to help fund training and equipment needed to have a safe environment for the very same people who are being asked to pay to enter our beaches.

After all if you provide a service or entertainment in a building or vehicle this has to be covered by health and safety regulations.

World Book Day gives more children the enjoyment of reading

picture of the week picture of the week picture of the week pic

of the week

Victoria Sells from Waterloo took this picture while walking the dog by the Marine Lake on a windless night with the cranes from the docks perfectly reflected in the still water. If you have a photograph you would like to submit for our Picture of the Week email editorial@champnews.com and include your name, the area where you live and a brief description.

Reading when I was a child allowed my imagination to soar and to travel to places beyond whatever situation I found myself in.

Reading is a great equaliser - it inspires us to meet our fellow humans, to understand, empathise and enter landscapes we could never dream of experiencing in one lifetime.

Reading contributes to a better quality of life, impacts on our health, spirit, educational opportunities and well being… it connects us to each other and our own humanity.

I have seen first-hand - through working with refugee children forced to travel and surviving alone, without family - what a transformational impact escaping into a book can have in helping them to keep hope alive in unimaginably unstable situations they should never have to face.

To hear a child laugh and reconnect to childhood in these harsh circumstances is life affirming.

I want every child to be able to reach for a book that brings them light.

That’s why this World Book Day (Thursday, March 5) I’m supporting Book Aid International.

Their fundraising efforts mean more children and young people will have access to books.

Every day I’m inspired by the stories children have to tell and being a part of World Book Day means we can spread the enjoyment of reading even further.

Just £2 helps send another book, giving children the opportunity to read, learn and have fun.

The Book Aid International website (www.bookaid.org) has plenty of exciting fundraising ideas for schools and parents.

Whether you host a Big Booky Breaktime, have a sponsored Read-A-Thon or run your own unique fundraising event, it will have a positive effect.

I’m grateful for Blitz exhibition

Aircraft noise near Council should clear up Rimrose getting worse the litter from our roads

Re: The Bootle and the Blitz exhibition which is currently taking place in Crosby Library.

The first I heard about it was by reading about it in the Champion.

I do agree that it would have been more sensitive if it had taken place in Bootle.

But to me who experienced it is a ten year old child, and remember it vividly, it seemed as though it was just past history and forgotten about.

So thanks to whoever organised the exhibition and I will be interested to visit, and remember, and feel very grateful to have survived the experience.

Re: Article about changes to flight patters at Liverpool’s John Lennon Airport.

Living for more than 25 years near Rimrose Valley Country Park I know there has been a sustained level of increase in noise from aircraft.

Some of the aircraft breach Civil Aviation Authority rules when flying over residential areas.

The noise has become so bad that monitoring equipment was installed at my

Kathleen Brown, Netherton

property.

The airport is now clearing the way to use more airspace over Merseyside.

Peel Ports are already going to wreck our only green space.

Then again I don’t suppose the chief executives of either Peel Ports or John Lennon Airport live anywhere near the airport or Rimrose Valley.

Concerned resident, Litherland

After reading your letters regarding the pensioner who was fined for dropping litter I have to say that I am also disgusted with the council.

I have contacted them on numerous occasions about the amount of litter, cigarette butts, rubbish bags, uneaten takeaway cartons, dog fouling in and around South Road in Waterloo.

The weekends are the worst and it’s always the same excuses from them, that they are short staffed or there is only a minimal number of

road cleaners.

The Champion needs to send a photographer around the area Saturday and Sunday and take pictures then show them to the department responsible for keeping our roads clean and tidy.

They should be brought to account instead of fining a pensioner for accidentally dropping one piece of paper.

What an injustice.

Girls’ football team looking for players

Give me back the cold crisp winter days of yesteryear IF there is one thing that convinces me of climate change, it’s the weather.

For weeks now we have had thoroughly miserable weather - cold, damp and worst of all, windy.

But it’s a cold that chills to the bone, the kind that once you’ve become cold it seems impossible to get warm again, rather than good, old-fashioned crisp cold that can be defeated by a pair of woolly gloves and scarf and a good, snug jacket.

What really brought the change home to me was walking to the shopping centre recently, crossing the bridge over the Leeds and Liverpool Canal.

From as early as I can remember by the time February had arrived the canal would have been thickly frozen at least once - enough to encourage the unwary or just plain stupid - to walk on it.

But for the past few years this simply has not happened.

And as for snow.....

I’ve grown out of the excitement of finding the world covered in a crisp carpet of snow - though to be honest I reckon I’d still look forward to it if only it would depart as quickly and cleanly as it arrived.

When I was a boy, it seemed marvellous to us when we sat at our desks in school watching large, white flakes pass the window as we were practising Christmas carols.

The dogs used to love it as well.

I remember walking with my previous Tina in the snow-covered ground of the Parkhaven Trust.

She loved the stuff - but she had a problem.

After running around in it for quite a short while it became balled up in her paws, bringing her to a limping halt.

Now, Tina being Tina, she stalwartly refused any kind of help.

Oh no. She lay down in the snow, turned onto her back with paws in the air and bit at the balled-up white stuff which flew in all directions until she was fit to regain her feet and continue yet again to frolic in the snow.

And back in 1963 (I think) we had a genuine white Christmas with inches of snow covering the roads. It was great!

Now I realise that snow can also bring misery to folk too, but I can only speak as I found.

The other proof of climate change that directly affects me is the rising sea levels.

As you know, my holidays are spent afloat on the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads.

There are no locks on the Broads - but there are several rather low bridges.

There is a particularly difficult curved arch one taking a main road over the River Bure at Wroxham - often referred to as the capital of the Broads.

My cruiser, ‘Manxman’ with the cockpit roof slid back, the mast and windscreen lowered, needs seven foot clearance for this bridge, and years ago it would manage this quite easily at all but high water in the summer, and squeeze its way through at half-tide or so when my late brother George and I went for a November cruise.

I am never able to ‘make’ Wroxham bridge at that time of year these days.

I thought about this talking to a senior local councillor about the flood threat to houses about to be built locally - and I can’t understand why builders want to build in some places that they do - or planners who are disposed to give them permission to do so.

None of which though persuades me that all of the Draconian steps being quite suddenly advocated by the same politicians who only a few months ago it seems, were telling us to buy hybrid cars - are now telling us that they will be banned at the same time as their ‘straight’ diesel and petrol counterparts.

Oh well, it never rains but it pours, doesn’t it?

MCA Girls football team are looking for new players aged 11-13.

Team officials say it is” a great way to keep fit, meet friends, and be part of a excellent team.”

MCA play matches every Saturday and compete in tournaments against teams from all over the north west.

They train on Wednesday evenings from 6-7pm at the Goals Soccer Centre, Park Lane, Netherton.

Walkers are being called on to help find missing rights of way Report by Henry James WALKERS, historians and map enthusiasts from Sefton and West Lancashire are being called on by walking charity, the Ramblers, to find the missing rights of way across the country.

Around 10,000 miles of historic footpaths are thought to be missing from the map in England and Wales.

Driver training now underway for new Merseyrail trains

By Champion Reporter

TESTING is about to start for the new trains which are set to be introduced by Merseyrail later this year.

Mechanical testing as well as driver and staff training will be taking place across the Merseyrail network, so passengers may spot the new trains over the next few months.

The first of the class 777 fleet of trains was unveiled recently at the redeveloped Stadler rail depot in Kirkdale.

The new train had travelled to Merseyside from Stadler’s factory in Switzerland and is the first of 52 trains to be delivered over the next year.

COUNCIL chiefs have been accused of delaying a scheme to install charging points for electric cars across Sefton.

Birkdale Ward Councillor Iain BrodieBrowne said: “Once again the scheme to install charging points for electric cars has been put back. This is not due to a shortage of money as lots of local authorities have successfully got on with the job and now have facilities for electric cars up and running.

“Sefton has announced that the scheme has been further delayed.

“If we take tackling climate change as an urgent matter, this failure is unacceptable.

I have heard the litany of excuses from the council none of which alters the fact that many local authorities have drawn down the grants that have been available and got the job done. We are now many years

Cllr Paulette Lapin with new additions to Sefton Council's electric fleet

behind the best performing councils The sales of electric cars are climbing steadily. Everyone accept that pollution form cars is one of the key drivers of poor air quality and all the health implications that result from it.

“The climate change emergency should be a top concern and reducing harmful emissions for cars is one of the biggest contributions that the Council can make. Once again Sefton is several years behind the

best performing local authorities on environmental matters. This delay comes after the council’s decision stop the collection and recycling of food waste.”

A spokesperson for Sefton Council responded: “We recognise the importance of electric vehicles to air quality and climate change.

“To maximise impact with the resources available and ensure a joined-up approach with other work in these areas the council is developing an Electric Mobility Plan. As part of this we are working with experts in the field, colleagues across the Liverpool City Region and our Air Quality Members Reference Group, to ensure that we are in a strong position to make the most of current and future funding opportunities to improve infrastructure for residents, visitors and businesses alike.

“Sefton is also seeking to lead by example, reviewing its own fleet and introducing electric vehicles and low emission vehicles wherever it can.

Police rated ‘good’ for fourth time by inspectors MERSEYSIDE Police has been rated ‘good’ by inspectors for the fourth consecutive year.

In terms of its effectiveness in general, the force is ‘good’ at reducing crime and preventing offending, ‘good’ at investigating offending and good at tackling anti-social behaviour, whilst it

. .and they lived happily ever after Are you getting married this year or next? Well congratulations! It’s a fabulous time to be planning a wedding. Gone are the days of stuffy traditions and stressful plans to please everyone but yourself. We now welcome an age where the sky really is the limit. A wedding is not about going through the motions and following the so called “wedding rule book” (unless that’s your thing of course) It’s about throwing the rule book out of the window and celebrating your uniqueness and the special quirks that make you such an amazing couple.

Sustainable Weddings Sustainability has been a huge topic in the news recently. With the realities of climate change and becoming more eco-friendly being a part of our everyday lives, more and more couples are making concerted efforts to lessen the impact their wedding celebrations have on the planet. Central to this is drastically reducing the amount of plastic used in your wedding and also your carbon footprint – and there’s lots of ways you can achieve this.

From the travel required to gather everyone together in one place, to the food waste, plastic packaging and mountains of throwaway décor, weddings don’t tend to be particularly eco-friendly events. So whether you and your partner plan on opting for a completely sustainable wedding or are simply looking to adopt a few ideas to help make your big day that bit more sustainable, there are plenty of relatively inexpensive ways in which to reduce the environmental and ethical impact of your wedding.

Choosing the right wedding dress Choosing a wedding dress is not a decision that should be taken lightly. After all, you’ve probably been dreaming of the perfect gown for your big day since you were a child. You might try on 25 dresses, and you might hate them all. You might then go back to the shop the following week and pick one out that you’ve already tried on. Or maybe you choose the first wedding dress you see. Anything is possible when you’re shopping for the dress!

Shopping for your wedding gown can feel a little overwhelming. It can be as daunting as it is exciting. This will likely be the first and only time you’ll be doing this, and lets face it, it’s not quite the same as picking out an outfit for work.

You’ve probably never tried on a wedding dress before, or had a room full of people comment on everything you try on. It can be a long process and one that isn’t always easy. So to help you avoid any bridal boutique faux pas or dress search frustrations, and to hopefully help make the process as fun and easy as possible, we’ve put together this quick guide to bridal shopping.

1. KNOW YOUR BUDGET The average bride spends £1,313 on her wedding dress. Of course, you can pick one up for a lot less than that. If you’re on the hunt for a wedding dress on a budget, the high street is a great place to start. You can pick a dress up for as

little as £50 and you can find some really beautiful gowns that look endlessly more expensive than they actually are.

If you’re on the lookout for something a little more high end, look towards couture bridal designers. They’re often stocked in specialist bridal boutiques and can range from £2000 £10,000 plus.

Whatever your budget, knowing the limits of what you can spend is crucial. Of course, many dresses that are drastically out of your budget are going to look fantastic so it’s best not to fall in love with something you can’t afford.

It’s also important to agree an amount with your other half and stick to it. Also, remember to budget for alterations, shoes, lingerie and accessories.

2. KNOW WHAT TYPE OF SILHOUETTE YOU WANT It’s a good idea to do some research online or go through a few bridal magazines ahead of your wedding dress shopping appointment.

The most common bridal gown silhouettes you’re going to see will be: BALLGOWN This style would what many describe as the classic “princess” dress. They have a fitted bodice and a full skirt.

A-LINE A-line gowns are probably the most popular silhouette. They have a fitted waist and have an “A” shaped skirt that flairs out at the waistline.

TRUMPET Trumpet gowns are fitted from the neckline to the hips, and then flare out at the bottom.

MERMAID Mermaid gowns are similar to trumpet gowns in that they are fitted, but they don’t flare out until about mid-calf.

SHEATH Sheath gowns have a straight shape from the neckline to the hem.

Tea Length Tea-length dresses were popular in the mid-century and are now a fun, vintage silhouette for more casual, garden weddings.

Most tea-length dresses are in an A-line shape but the hem ends in the middle of the calf or at the top of the ankle.

3. YOU HAVE TO FEEL COMFORTABLE IN YOUR WEDDING GOWN Every bride wants to look her best on her big day, but you should also be comfortable. It will be a long day, you’re going to running non stop all day between relatives, making sure things are running smoothly and dancing your little heart out. Pick a dress that’s beautiful and that moves with you.

Here’s to love, laughter & happily ever after You’re invited to join the Vincent Hotel on Tuesday 18th February for a showcase of our opulent wedding suite & facilities 4.30pm until 7.30pm. Glass of fizz on arrival

Food

Wedding Transport Planning your wedding is one of the most exciting times in your life. From picking out your wedding dress down to the invitations you will send out to your guests, each detail feels incredibly important, after all, this is one of the few occasions in life that you are encouraged to have and do, exactly what you want. This extends to the transport you will use on your big day and should be thought about carefully to tie in to your theme. Whether you choose to go traditional or trendy, here are some wedding transport ideas that maybe just help you decide how you will arrive in style on your big day.

VINTAGE CARS When the vows have been exchanged and it’s time to celebrate with friends and family, everyone wants to finish their big day perfectly with a delicious meal that will be remembered.

Catering for your wedding guests can be a delicious yet stressful minefield. Deciding whether to serve a three-course meal, or maybe a belt-busting buffet. While formal dining is still the most common food arrangement at a wedding, new trends have introduced a quirky element to wedding food which are guaranteed to make your big day even more memorable.

While there is absolutely nothing wrong with a traditional three course, sit down meal, if you want to make your wedding more personalised, then the food you serve is an excellent way to do so. In 2020, more and more of us are thought to be moving away from set menus and are embracing innovative alternatives. From edible displays to tasty, exciting street food, outdoor BBQs and serving your guests late night snacks, break through the boundaries of a traditional wedding meal and serve up food you know will go down a treat.

Fancy rocking up in a vintage Rolls Royce at your wedding? Or do you see yourself making a grand entrance in a Badsworth.

Vintage cars are stunning and many brides choose this option for the journey to the church or venue. They also make for some fantastic photo opportunities.

HORSE & CARRIAGE Perfect for the ultimate princess bride, the horse and carriage have been making a comeback at weddings recently. You’ll need to consider that this particular choice means it can take a great deal longer to get to the venue and obviously the weather can cause issues. However, arriving in this way certainly ensures an eye catching entrance.

BIG RED BUS This may not sound particularly traditional, but a big red bus can look fantastic in photos and they are a great way to transport lots of your guests between venues. This ensures everyone arrives together and at the same time. It is worth pointing out that a big red bus looks a lot more sophisticated than it sounds and reputable companies will only use well maintained vehicles.

HELICOPTER Nothing quite says ‘I have arrived’ more than a helicopter entrance. Select a venue with a helipad and you can glide into your venue feeling like you have just escaped a Bond movie.

YELLOW TAXI CAB Did you have a romantic New York proposal, or are you jetting off there on honeymoon? Why not carry the theme in to your big day with a yellow taxi. Quirky, fun and available from many reputable wedding hire companies.

GOLF BUGGY Are you saying ‘I do’ at a golf resort or hotel? A buggy will make for some seriously fun wedding shots and many venues will only charge a small fee to allow you to use them on the day.

Choosing and Buying your Wedding Rings It is customary around the world for married couples to wear wedding rings, as a symbol of their love for one another.

Choosing your wedding ring is something that requires a lot of thought as you’ll want to wear this for the rest of your life.

So whether you want a traditional band or something a little more unique, make sure you consider everything so you can find the perfect style for you.

BUDGET When setting your overall wedding budget, be sure to include wedding rings.

After all, you’ll be wearing these forever, and it would be nice to spend a little bit more than you would on your regular jewellery.

SHOP AS A COUPLE During your wedding planning some decisions may not be done as a couple, but choosing your wedding rings definitely should be. Dedicate a weekend or two to shopping for your wedding rings and try and visit more than one jeweller so that you see the different styles available before making a final decision.

CONSIDER SHAPE AND SIZE Wedding rings come in a variety of

different shapes and sizes. For the groom, different metals and styles may be a factor, and for the bride careful consideration needs to be taken, especially if you have an engagement ring that is an unusual style. Bespoke jewellers will be able to help, guide and advise on which metals and styles are the most suitable when it comes to your wedding rings. You could also consider visiting a bespoke wedding ring jeweller if you plan on melting a vintage wedding ring or turning a family heirloom into something special for your own wedding.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT METAL Years ago wedding rings were mainly purchased in a classic gold style.

Nowadays they can be designed in a number of different materials. For the bride it’s common to choose a metal that matches her engagement ring, whilst for the groom, something stylish and sturdy is generally a good option. Choices available for wedding rings include gold, white gold, rose gold, silver, platinum, palladium, titanium and zirconium to name a few. Prices will vary depending on the style and weight of the metal you choose so consider this when discussing your initial budget.

Quirky touches Unexpected wedding music is sure to leaving a lasting impression on your guests. Sure, a string quartet is nice, but you’ll blow your guests away with a jazz trio or a Spanish guitar player. To really get the party going, look into hiring a mariachi band, a bluegrass group, or even a barbershop quartet for some seriously memorable melodies.

For the newly weds who love to be different, why not consider adding some special personal touches to your wedding that reflect your fun loving tastes. These quirky additions are probably the moments that will be remembered by your guests when looking back on your big day.

Providing breathtaking surprises, exciting food and drinks or special photo opportunities can really bring your wedding guests together and provide a talking point for a long time to come.

Some animal loving couples may include their pets on the day, dressed up in best bib and tucker.

It’s always a good idea to remember your little guests too. It can be a long day full of excitement for them and special miniature drinks or treats can go a long way in keeping them happy and occupied. Treats such as miniature nonalcoholic cocktails or personalised cookies are always well received.

For the Bride and Groom, your day can pass by in a flash. Therefore, introducing a photo booth or a prop station is also a great option. Your guests will have great fun posing for photos throughout the day and you will happily be able to look back on these after the event.

Whatever quirky touches you decide to go for, in the end it will be a full reflection of both of you and the things you love, so it’s always a great way of adding the finishing touches to your special day.

Or perhaps showing your creative side, home made decorations for your venue may be something to consider. Although this can be somewhat time consuming, it can also be fun and the end effect can be beautiful.

Review by Peter Rimmer An Inspector Calls The Playhouse, Liverpool.

THIS play got off to a spectacular start with the curtain opening and lots of real water pouring down as rain onto the fictional northern town of Brumley in 1912.

The play takes place in Edwardian England and the set design made a big impact with a red telephone booth and the stage itself looking like a giant doll’s house in which much of the action took place.

The music by Stephen Warbreck created a tense atmosphere as the inspector played by Liam Brennan walked through the audience to arrive on stage.

Sad to say after only about quarter of an hour the fire alarms went off and the audience were asked to move outside. The sight of seeing hundreds of people on Williamson Square along with the actors still dressed in Edwardian costume was a surreal experience but was taken in good heart by everyone concerned, it was the first night after all!

This well-known play has had thousands of performances since being written by JB

The play is full of twists and turns, and there is an unexpected ending to the tale.

It would be unfair to reveal the full storyline of this unusual play.

Love Sister Pam and Steve XXXX

PRAYERS THANK YOU Sacred Heart and St Jude.

Prayers answered. B.C.B

Saint Jude’s Novena

May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be glorified, loved and preserved throughout the world now and forever.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, pray for us, St. Jude worker of miracles pray for us.

St. Jude, helper of the hopeless pray for us.

Say this prayer 9 times a day.

By the 8th day your prayers may be answered.

Say it for 9 days and it has never been known to fail.

Publication must be promised.

Thank you St. Jude Instructions: Light your candle and declare out loud what miracle you need right now. Repeat this prayer 9 times for 9 days. Do this at the same time each day, never skip a day. If you do, you need to start over again. On the 9th day give thanks, and say "So be it."

Give it up to Saint Jude and let go of any worry. You will see results in 72 hours. Never use this prayer to manipulate or control anyone. Use it only with the best intentions.

This is the most important part of the entire process YOU MUST pass this miracle prayer onto others. Some people publish it in the paper, others e-mail it to their friends, and others post it in a public building.

MOTORS All of these ingredients sound absolutely spot on to my petrol-head ears!

YOU sit up and notice when the man behind the McLaren F1 and Mercedes SLR rustles up a new set of wheels. Especially when all the ingredients – on the face of it, at least – sound indisputably spot on to a set of a petrolhead ears.

Gordon Murray’s latest creation weighs in at less than 450kg, making it lighter than a Caterham Seven R500 or an Ariel Atom. You clamber into it after opening an SLR-esque ‘gullwing’ door that opens upwards, and there’s just one, centrally-mounted seat, BAC Mono-style.

The body panels are composite, and underneath the structure’s ultra-lightweight, high strength extruded aluminium. It has everything going for it to be a brilliant new supercar – but the MOTIV emphatically isn’t one.

In fact, it’s a beautifully engineered answer to a question I’m still scratching my head over.

The MOTIV, officially launched later this week at a show in London, might look like one of those automated pod things that darts around the car park at Heathrow Terminal Five but it in fact is Gordon’s solution for city slickers who are currently clogging up Liverpool and Manchester with Fiestas and Astras that have only ever seem to have one person on board at any time.

It’s fully autonomous, can crack 40mph on a cruise and can recharge its 20kw electric motor to 80 per cent of its capacity in just 40 minutes. It’s also narrower than a Smart Fortwo – but if you send it off on its own on cargo delivery duties, it’s got as much luggage space as an Audi A3 with the back seats folded down.

All while meeting car safety standards that – because it’s officially a quadricycle, on account of weighing about as much as a helium-filled supermodel – it doesn’t legally have to.

I don’t even mind the fact that it’s deliberately been designed to look ‘non-threatening’ (their

words, not mine), because it’s got weird echoes of 1950s bubble cars, which did exactly the same job but with tiny, two-stroke engines instead.

Nope, the only thing I’m still trying to get my head around is how it’s been designed so explicitly with big cities in mind.

I can count the times I’ve driven in Central London on the digits of a single hand because there’s no reason why you’d want to; you can go absolutely everywhere on buses and the Tube.

Equally, there are very few places in Liverpool that I can’t get to without using a Merseyrail train or the bus. So, I’m not sure why I’d hop into a MOTIV instead.

The Catch 22 is that in order to benefit from the MOTIV you’ll either be somewhere where a train/bus/tram already does the job or you’ll need to park up somewhere in a much bigger car, even if it is a Boris-friendly all-electric one, and switch vehicles.

As for anywhere else, would you want to tackle the trip in something with no room for your mates and runs out of puff at forty?

Exactly.

It’s all the finest, freshest ingredients, cooked to perfection by Marco Pierre White and served in an exquisite, candle-lit, five star restaurant – it’d just be nice if you could remember what you’d ordered.

David Simister is the editor of Classic Car Weekly

Bucks boss warns heads could roll after home defeat Bootle 0 Rylands 3 BOOTLE manager Joe Doran has warned his players to change their attitude or face being replaced after they were condemned to a second defeat in three games, writes Connor O’Neill.

After the previous weekend’s hammering at the hands of Ashton Athletic, the Bucks bounced back with a 4-0 midweek win over lowly Hanley Town, but it was a case of deja vu for Bootle on Saturday.

The Bucks were second best throughout the 90 minutes and fell behind to Kane Drummond’s strike after just 20 minutes.

And although they got themselves back into the game, Bootle hit with the ultimate sucker-punch on the stroke of half-time when Drummond netted his second of the afternoon.

Six minutes into the second half

and Drummond completed his hattrick and in doing so sealed all three points for his side leaving Doran furious afterwards.

“Last Saturday against Ashton we gifted them the game and we have done exactly the same in this game,” he told Bootle Bucks TV. “I’ve just told the lads in no uncertain terms that a lack of desire and determination between now and the end of the season isn't acceptable at this football club.

“There will be a change in attitude and if there isn't there will be a change in personnel.

“Our away form has been good.

We have applied ourselves well and got some good results, but lately, our home form has been shocking.

“It is whether we need to look at the personnel on the pitch or our attitude towards the game.

“But I just think today we made stupid mistakes.”

Bootle are away at sixth place Longridge Town on Saturday.

Remyca narrowly beaten to stay bottom of the table Squires Gate 1 Litherland Remyca 0 STRONG winds played havoc as Litherland Remyca were narrowly beaten in a scrappy game at Squires Gate.

James Boyd scored the only goal in the even contest.

The defeat sees Remyca stay rooted two points adrift at the bottom of the table, but the two teams above them, Hanley Town and Burscough both lost, so it is set to be a tight battle to avoid relegation.

The game started with a great early chance for Brad Smart but he was denied by a tremendous save from Jordan Gidley.

A chance at the opposite end not long after was blocked by the ever reliable Ste King.

Remyca then had two decent chances off corners. The first chance hit the bar as it was swung in and the second chance came

just before the half hour mark, when a header from the debuting Mikey White was cleared off the line by Squires Gate.

Squires Gate broke the deadlock on 34 minutes when a misplaced pass in the middle of the park from Litherland saw Boyd break through the defence and slide the ball past Lee Carroll in goal.

The second half was a quiet affair. Litherland had a chance through the returning Liam Diggle, but the shot was blocked for a corner that led to nothing.

Squires Gate had two chances of note.

The first saw Josh Pollard try a spectacular shot from the outside of the box, but the wind took it away from goal.

The second came just before the end, when Josh Westwood saw his header sneak just over the post.

This Saturday Remyca host AFC Liverpool in the Macron Sports Cup.

Youngsters impress in narrow defeat for Maghull Marshalls 3 Maghull 2 MAGHULL fielded two teenage debutants for their West Cheshire League Division One trip to the south end of Liverpool where they faced second in the table Marshalls.

And it was one of these, Charlie Taylor, who was man of the match despite his side being rather unluckily defeated by the odd goal in five.

Taylor together with the other newcomer to the Senior side Dan Grundy are products of the club’s youth policy and have progressed through the junior ranks and into

the Reserve team and both impressed manager Joe Burns.

Maghull held a two goals to one lead until late in the second period courtesy of two strikes from Joel Richardson but a brace from Shaun Smith sealed the points for the hosts.

Maghull Reserves also had youth in their set up which defeated Mossley Hill Reserves by virtue of a solitary effort from Marco Parvas.

Next Saturday Maghull are without a game due to the league team being involved in the National League Cup while the Reserves entertain Ashville Reserves kick off 3pm.

Neil Kengni opens the scoring for Marine. Picture by Susan Nugent.

Seventh heaven for rampant Mariners with record away win Droylsden 0 Marine 7 MARINE achieved a new club record for their biggest away win in the Northern Premier League era when they put seven past Droylsden, writes Tom Clarke.

Neil Young’s side swept aside the home team with braces from Neil Kengni, Jordan Lussey and Mark Howarth and a goal from George Hassall.

Marine were rapid out of the blocks, with Lussey going close in the opening seconds before an Anthony Miley volley forced a reflex save out of home stopper Elliot Wynne from a corner.

Wynne could do nothing about a fast break to put Marine ahead in the seventh minute, though, Neil Kengni netting his side’s first of the afternoon.

Kengni hit the back of the net again within seconds following another impressive display of fast feet from the forward.

Marine continued their relentless press-

ing approach, with chances coming for Steve Irwin as well as a tantalising cross across the face of goal from Josh SolomonDavies which no Mariner could quite latch onto.

The third goal came in the 24th minute, Jordan Lussey striking well past Wynne for his first of the afternoon.

Just five minutes later, Kengni chipped a clever ball over the top of the Droylsden defence for Hassall.

The striker completed a great move by lobbing the goalkeeper to make it 4-0 with less than half an hour gone.

Lussey attempted his second as half time closed in, the midfielder almost beating Wynne from the corner spot, but the 'keeper was wise to it this time.

Droylsden had a good chance on the stroke of the break, Domaine Rouse striking the inside of Dan Atherton's post, but it was hacked clear by James Ellison.

Kenny Strickland replaced Irwin at the break as Young looked to shore up the res-

ult. That didn't stop the prolific Mariners, though, Lussey grabbing his second just two minutes after the restart.

Howarth added Marine's sixth by heading into the roof of the net shortly before the hour mark, with Wynne helpless in the Droylsden goal.

Captain Niall Cummins and the outstanding Kengni were replaced by Florian Yonsian and James Barrigan respectively as the game wore on, with both subs proving lively inside the hosts' half.

Howarth scored his second and Marine's seventh of the afternoon on 80 minutes, before James Barrigan almost made it eight with a double-chance late on.

Marine stay in third place in the Northern Premier League North West Division table three points behind leaders Ramsbottom United and one point behind Workington who have played one less match.

Marine host sixth place Tadcaster Albion on Saturday.

Heartache for Firwood Waterloo as they succumb to late drop goal FIRWOOD Waterloo’s six match winning run came to an agonising end as a late drop goal gave their hosts, Burnage a slender 27 – 25 win.

The match was always set to be a keenly fought contest and both teams played their part in an exciting and entertaining game.

The ‘Loo forwards exerted early control which forced a penalty for Daragh O’Brien to open the scoring while their hosts kicked into space well to test the defence but it held firm.

The attacking intent from the boys in myrtle prevailed and midfield general Alex Ward found a gap in the home side’s defence to score with O’Brien to add the extras.

The forwards maintained the pressure but failing to roll away after a tackle gave a penalty to Burnage.

A quick tap and go caught the visit-

ors by surprise and led to their first scores of the afternoon. ‘Loo returned to their pressing game and were matched by Burnage, but mishandling in the cold conditions by both sides meant that the scoreboard was not troubled for a period.

Both defences were put under pressure, but it was the powerful Burnage backs that found a way through the Firwood Waterloo defence to score for a half time lead of 14 – 10.

The second half started with the same intensity from both sides with the magnificent Kurt Riley playing a key role in carrying the ball up field.

He was supported by Josh Jenkins who had a number of fine breaks in midfield – these are becoming his signature moves.

The forwards’ pressure earned ‘Loo a penalty to reduce the deficit to a single point.

The next phases of play saw the lead change hands many times.

Burnage 27 Firwood Waterloo 25

Clare House, 166 Lord Street, Southport PR9 0QA

Great running by Lee Ferrier released Alex Ward for his second try to retake the lead by four points.

Burnage responded with patient play to retake the lead by a point, only for an inspired break by Dom Gosling to score for the boys from Blundellsands and take a six point lead.

A tense final ten minutes saw Burnage come within a point with a finely worked try in the corner.

And to the agony of the many travelling supporters a dropped goal gave the home side a two point lead.

The visitors were not done and gave their all, winning a penalty just outside the Burnage 22 but the difficult kick was narrowly missed. It proved to be the last kick of the game.

Firwood Waterloo’s face another tricky tie against Northwich on Saturday, who leap-frogged over ‘Loo to take second place in the league who moved to third.
