TV DUO’S CAFE BAR BOOST FOR VILLAGE

INSIDE THIS WEEK...

Report by Tom Martin

TWO former reality television stars have joined forces to open a new coffee shop and cocktail bar in Crosby Village.

Kurt Wilson, who appeared on The Apprentice in 2014, and Harry Marquart, who won the series Head Chef in 2011, will be opening their latest venture Frankie’s soon.

The pair are both from Crosby and they will carry out their “multi-million pound investment” at one of St Modwen's recently revamped shops in the Village.

Frankie’s will open in the refurbished Glenn Buildings South and the business owners have signed a new 10-year lease with St Modwen.

The venue will serve bagels, sandwiches and light bites and will have an extensive cocktail menu.

The highly experienced team behind Frankie’s own Japanese sushi bar Izakaya, in Liverpool, also includes Jack Doran, the former manager of The Alchemist in Liverpool.

Named in memory of Jack’s father, Frankie’s will operate as a coffee shop in the day before shifting to a cocktail bar in the evening.

Harry previously worked at Michelin starred restaurants Pollen Street Social in London and the Chester Grosvenor.

He has also worked at the high-end London Carriage Works restaurant in Liverpool.

Kurt said: “We’re really excited to be opening Frankie’s in Crosby and we’re positive it will be a huge success.

“I’m Crosby born and bred, and when I heard about the regeneration plans for the area I had to get involved.

“Crosby is a great place with a beautiful beach that attracts people to the area, but it has been

lacking in decent restaurants and bars for some time. It’s great to see this is now changing.”

St Modwen got underway with the redevelopment of the Glenn Buildings and construction of 10 Moor Lane in June 2017 after acquiring the site and securing planning approval from Sefton Council for its plans to develop the 24,775 sq ft of retail, leisure and office space.

Alastair Budd, director of asset management – North for St Modwen, said: “Frankie’s will be an excellent addition to Crosby Village and we are pleased to be providing quality premises for

another independent, local business.

“We have made a significant investment into the village and the fact that another business has chosen Crosby for their first site outside of the city centre is testament to the improvements that are being made.”

This deal follows the news that long standing local business The Blues Bar has expanded its premises and signed a new lease confirming its commitment to Crosby, Costa Coffee has renewed its lease and Peacocks has opened a new fashion store in the new buildings.

Lime Street station work to affect services on Sunday SEFTON rail passengers are being warned to check before travelling to or from Lime Street station this Sunday (September 2) due to planned work.

Rail line closures will be in place on Sunday as part of a planned programme of work for Lime Street station’s major transformation.

This latest work is to help bring the new platform 1 and extended platform 2 into full passenger use in October.

The plan to keep passengers moving this Sunday will be similar to previous phases of work, as many mainline services will start and terminate at Liverpool South Parkway where passengers can travel in and out of the city centre using the Merseyrail network.

Marcus Barnes, from Network Rail, said: “Our remaining upgrades this Sunday are part of an 18 month programme of work to transform Liverpool Lime Street, as part of the Great North Rail Project.

Food and Drink Festival called off due to high winds - but it could still be held at later date Report by Tom Martin THE first ever Crosby and Waterloo Food and Drink Festival had to be cancelled at the last minute due to bad weather last weekend - but organisers hope it can still be staged at a later date.

The town's inaugural event was called off by organisers NS Events on Friday, August 24, a day before the three day event was due to start, due to a bleak weather forecast of high wind and rain.

It was going to be held at the large field next to the Burbo Bank section of Crosby beach, and was going to see a wide range of local traders set-up stalls to sell refreshments.

NS Events has apologised to both traders and locals who had been looking forward to the event, and promised to reschedule it for another time.

NS Events posted on Facebook on Friday, August 24: “Sadly, we have fought a losing battle with the weather and given it’s location on the coast, gusts of wind have been far exceeding 30 mph causing any temporary structures to become unsafe.

“Our main aim was to have a safe, clean and successful event and to that end we cannot guarantee visitors', or traders', safety due to the high winds and with no prospect of those wind speeds dropping - despite it appearing calmer a little further inland.

“We apologise for the delay in advising you, as we understand rumours have circulated on social media, but throughout the day we have made every possible attempt to keep the event live.

“We have spoken with countless officials in Sefton Council and private organisations about different sites

in keeping with that old mantra of 'the show must go on' but regrettably, have now made the decision that those alternative sites were either unavailable or unsuitable and in light of needing to maintain everyone’s safety not having enough time to thoroughly risk assess those sites.

“As local lads living and working in the community, we are gutted to have to cancel this weekend’s event as we were so proud of what we had planned - and apologies to everyone who was planning the trip to us and to our traders who have remained patient and understanding throughout a difficult day.

“However, we are more determined than ever to host the first Crosby and Waterloo Food and Drink Festival but it won’t be this weekend.

“Like a phoenix from the flames we ask that you watch this space for news of a rearranged date - and maybe a rearranged location.

“Again, we are so disappointed and apologise for your disappointment but safety must be our primary focus. Thank you for your understanding and we hope to have your continued support as we plan again and shout about the great independents we have here in Crosby, Waterloo and Liverpool.”

Free water refills on tap as cafes join scheme to cut use of plastic bottles Report by Lucy Jones A SCHEME for cafés to give free refills for reusable water bottles in a bid to reduce plastic pollution has been launched in Crosby.

Local businesses have already signed up to 'Refill Sefton', to encourage customers into reusing their own water bottles by filling them up with tap water for free.

It also aims to try and promote a healthier lifestyle for people with

volunteers who clean up Crosby Beach as they collect dozens of empty plastic bottles every time they do a beach clean.

The app users can also ask their local café or workplace to refill for free and get a sticker from the Refill Sefton Co-ordinating Group, ‘Crosby Craftivists.’

The charity ‘City to Sea’ won a bid to the Ordnance Survey Geovation team to create the Refill App. For more information, on getting a sticker for your local business, please crosbycraftivists@gmail.com

Volunteers needed for charity event in memory of Nathan VOLUNTEERS are needed to help out at a charity event in Crosby next month.

Volunteer Centre Sefton is seeking people to help staff at a fun run that starts from Crosby Leisure Centre at 10am on Sunday, September 9.

This is the second year that the run has taken place in memory of Nathan James Wilson.

All proceeds raised will be donated to Papyrus, a suicide prevention charity for young people.

A MAN from Seaforth who had sexually explicit online messages with a vulnerable 13-year-old girl has escaped a prison sentence.

The girl, who was in foster care, was contacted by Mark Lee-McGurk, 30, via Facebook Messenger, and though she kept ‘unfriending’ him he kept getting back in touch.

Liverpool Crown Court heard that after some explicit conversations, including him telling her he was ‘horny ’, there was a video exchange between them during which Mark Lee-McGurk he persuaded her to undress.

He also ordered him to carry out 60 days rehabilitation activities and to attend a sex offenders programme.

He also ordered him to sign the Sex Offenders Register for ten years and imposed a Sexual Harm Behaviour Order for the same length of time.

He said that he had used electronic communications to “inveigle” himself into her life and there had been an element of grooming. He had exacerbated problems that the victim was already suffering from.

Judge Aubrey said he was not being disrespectful but the court “sees you as rather a simple man.”

Charles Lander, defending, said that McGurk’s behaviour had taken place over a short period and he did not meet the girl.

“Psychiatric and probation reports show he is a socially isolated individual,” he said.

The former car valeter has only had one relationship since he was 18 and he found solace in the internet. He had not communicated with any other children and has accepted what he has done, said Mr Lander.

He said that McGurk has no previous convictions and had told the girl his true age.

Reds captain pays tribute to young footballer Jack Riding

Richard, pictured with MP Bill Esterson at a bus stop near his home, had to get taxi when the Comfybus service was delayed.

Call for bus firms to use technology to tell passengers of delays Report by Tom Martin A BUS user from Crosby is calling for transport companies to use technology to inform passengers about delays and cancellations.

Richard Orritt had a bad experience when he was waiting for the 133 Cumfybus, which he can take for free, which he wanted to take from Maghull to Crosby.

He checked online to see the bus times before arriving at the bus stop.

But the website didn’t tell him that the bus was delayed and after waiting 15 minutes, he thought the bus wasn’t running so ordered a taxi which cost him

nearly £10 to get home.

Richard wants bus firms to update passengers about delays or cancellations through their websites or social media channels.

Cumfybus said the bus was delayed due to a nearby police incident and roadworks, and have refused to reimburse him for the taxi fare.

Richard said: “I checked the website before setting off to make sure the bus was running as normal.

“There was no indication that it wasn’t.

“My friends left in a taxi and I walked to the bus stop.

“I could have gone in the taxi with them to the train station and got the train home, which I would have done had I known the bus was running so late.

“Cumfybus should reimburse people affected like this. It is simply not good enough to say the delay was out of their control.”

Richard has been backed by MP Bill Esterson, who also wants bus companies to “embrace technology” in order to provide a more reliable service.

MP Esterson said: “This highlights the sometimes poor service that is being received by bus users.

“It may be that on this occasion there was nothing Cumfybus could do to get the bus there on time, but the technology exists for bus companies to better inform passengers about delays.

“Bus companies need to be embracing this in order to offer a better service. Currently they are letting passengers down.”

Atherton was charged with burglary following an incident on Tuesday, June 26 in Wallasey.

At around 2.15pm, police responded to a report of a window being smashed at a house in Church Street and a man stealing a television.

Atherton was seen running away and was detained following a foot pursuit.

He was found to be in possession of a quantity of jewellery also stolen from the property before he was charged, remanded in custody and recalled to prison after his licence was revoked.

He pleaded guilty and also asked that six like offences in the Wirral area be taken into consideration. Police are welcoming this arrest as part of their ongoing crackdown on burglaries, called Andrew Atherton Operation Castle.

For 11-year-old Darren, who was born deaf, Maths is proving as easy as 1,2,3!

Report by Tom Martin

A PUPIL from Crosby who was born deaf and developed a love of maths gained a Level 8 in his GCSE – despite taking it four years early!

Darren Toh, who is only 11 years old and just finished Year 7, was so advanced that teachers at Merchant Taylors’ School felt confident he could do well in the maths GCSE, despite most of the other pupils sitting the exam being in Year 11.

That confidence paid off because Darren, who lives in Ormskirk, was delighted to find out last week that he managed to get a Level 8 (which is equivalent to an A*).

The achievement is all the more remarkable considering Darren was born with bilateral genetic congenital deafness and didn't first speak until he was five years old.

His proud mum, Dr May Ng said: “Darren's achievements are really remarkable for someone born with deafness.

“Darren didn’t speak until he was five years old, learning to first use sign-language and was in a special school with a statement of educational needs until he was seven years old.

“We gave up his education statement to place him in Merchant Taylors at Year 3 because he was showing so much progress.

“We have not looked back since as Merchants has nurtured him through the years with fantastic teachers along the way.

“In April this year, his maths teacher, Mrs Marshall, asked if he wanted to have a go at the GCSE maths exam with no pressure or expectations, and he did so well at just 11 years old.

“He loves drama, plays the saxophone and the piano; and has recently this month received a Distinction for Grade 5 piano and a Distinction for Grade 2 LAMDA (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) “Darren has grown up closely alongside his older brother Brendan with autism, now 14 years old and younger sister Corinne aged eight.”

Weight Loss Expert Returns to Support Kirkdale Residents

Sean Chandler and Louisa Trivett.

An award winning weight loss expert is set to return to running a Slimming World group on 28th August at St Pauls Church in order to support members of the community in Kirkdale to lose weight and feel great in the run up to Christmas.

Sarah Stringfellow originally joined her local Slimming World group after the birth of her daughter in 2002. “I had a difficult pregnancy due to my excess weight and when I had my daughter many people hadn’t realised I was pregnant in the first place! As soon as I had been cleared by my midwife I knew it was time to deal with my weight issues once and for all. I was nervous about going to a group on my own and worried about having to talk about my weight in front of everyone but relaxed as soon as I walked in the door. I was met by the consultant and she quickly put me at ease and assured me that my weight would be kept confidential. At the time I had a 7 week old baby and a 4 year old so I wasn’t sure how losing weight was going to fit in with the family but quickly found that old favourites such as Spaghetti Bolognaise and a Roast Dinner were still on the menu. I had tried to lose weight so many times before by following numerous diets but they were never sustainable because I’d always get tired of restricting what I ate. I thought I was destined to struggle with my weight for the rest of my life, but when I came to comes this year.”

Pupils are on cloud nine after GCSE exam success!

TWO clever pupils from Sacred Heart College in Crosby scored a record-breaking 19 Grade 9s between them in their GCSE results.

High-flyers Sean Chandler and Louisa Trivett scooped impressive results, which ranks them amongst the nation's very highest achievers.

They will now move into sixth-form at the College where Sean intends to study Maths, Chemistry, Biology and English and Louisa will take up Maths, Chemistry and French.

Headteacher, Ian Walker said: "Sean and Louisa's feats are amazing and come about as a result of exceptional natural ability allied to oldfashioned hard work in a strong academic environment. I have no doubt that they are about to do great things at Sacred Heart and then in the world after school.

“I am absolutely delighted to pass on my congratulations to all of our Year 11 students on their results. The efforts of our pupils, parents and staff have resulted in some fantastic out-

four adults are obese and it is estimated that, by 2034, this will increase to one in three.

61.5 of Kirkdale’s population is now overweight or obese, and Sarah says her new role has never been more important.

Sarah says: “Obesity is becoming such a huge issue across the UK. When I first joined Slimming World as a member, I never dreamed that I would end up helping other people to lose weight over the last 15 years.”

POLICE want to find four people in connection to gang-related crime in Sefton.

Elliot Atkinson, 20, from Park Lane West, in Netherton, is wanted in relation to a domestic incident in August in which threats were made.

Lewis Appleby, 24, from Banks, in Lancashire, is wanted on a recall to prison after breaching the conditions of his licence after serving a prison sentence for drug supply offences. Appleby also has links to the Southport area.

Kyle Horrocks, 22, from Bootle, is wanted in connection with an incident in Seaforth in April in which a report was received of two motorcycles car-

rying people believed to have been in possession of firearms, before the bikes were abandoned nearby.

A firearm was found close to the location and forensically recovered. Members of the public are asked not to approach Horrocks but call 999 immediately as he is regarded as a dangerous individual.

Peter Ball, 22, from Canning Road, in Southport, is wanted in relation to criminal damage in Southport in July, during which damage was caused to the front window of a house.

Sefton Local Policing Chief Inspector Jerry Harris said: “We believe that all of these men have information which may assist these ongoing investigations into recent incidents in Sefton. “If you have seen these men, or have heard anything about their whereabouts, please come forward and we will take action.�

RAIL unions have added three more strike days over the long-running dispute over the plans by Northern Rail to bring in driveronly trains, which means there will be disruption for travellers for the next five Saturdays.

The RMT has announced they will now be on strike on Saturday, September 15; Saturday, September 22 and Saturday, September 29.

This is addition to the existing programme of action which goes ahead on Saturday, September 1 and Saturday, September 8. There was also a strike on Saturday, August 25.

RMT General Secretary Mick Cash said: “RMT has made every effort to get serious and meaningful talks going with Northern but instead of making progress towards a settlement that matches the best practice in the rail industry as negotiated elsewhere the company have opted instead to play fast and loose making a mockery of the exercise.

“It is the pig headed and arrogant attitude of the company that has forced us to announce this next phase of action and to confirm that the strikes planned from Saturday go ahead.

“RMT members on Arriva Rail North have been in dispute for well over a year now in a battle to put public safety before private profit and we are angry and frustrated that a genuine opportunity to reach an agreement has been kicked back by the company.

“German-owned Northern Rail want to run nearly half a million trains a year without a safety critical guard on board in a move that would wreck both safety and access to services and they should listen to their front-line staff

Northern Rail workers have announced three more 24-hour strikes over the guards dispute

and pull back from that plan immediately.

“RMT recently secured an agreement on Greater Anglia that enshrine the guard guarantee. Similar agreements have also been reached in Wales and Scotland. Arriva Rail North need to do the right thing and come to an agreement that secures a guard on their trains too.

“We thank the public for their support and understanding throughout this dispute over rail safety and access and the union remains ready for genuine and serious talks.”

A Northern spokesman said: “The RMT has announced a total of six days of planned strikes which will impact on our services.

“We are concentrating our efforts on running as many services as possible to keep our customers moving and will publish details of timetables for each of these days of RMT strike action as soon as we have them.

“All customers are advised to check before travelling and, where necessary, may want to seek alternative modes of transport.”

Women’s football team is kitted out!

A WOMEN’S football team based in Crosby were delighted to be sponsored by a local garden centre – who have provided them with a smart new kit.

Crosby Ladies FC were formed in July 2017 and their seniors team has landed a sponsorship deal with Lady Green Garden Centre.

A spokesperson for the club said: “After formation, a couple of arranged friendlies paved the way for the team to be more competitive and entering small sided competitions which has seen them gain silverware just like the club's first team who actually won the treble in their first season.

RBS owes £46b to UK taxpayers

Dogs should only be allowed on beach at certain times

Park bins should be emptied more

The Royal Bank of Scotland is threatening to move its headquarters to the Netherlands, blaming Brexit.

The people that run this bank have clearly forgotten that the UK taxpayer bailed the RBS out and still owns 62% of it.

The UK treasury are servants of the tax payer and should, as major shareholders in RBS, explain to the bank’s chief executive how he should conduct himself if he wishes to keep his huge salary package.

Or maybe RBS would like to repay the UK taxpayer the £46 billion they owe us.

I was recently bitten on the hand on Crosby promenade by an ‘off the leash’ dog whose owner was busy gossiping.

I grew up in a family home with the dogs so I am not anti-dog at all.

But a lot of owners these days indulge and spoil their dogs and seem content to let them do as they wish, looking on them almost as ‘furry people.’

As a compromise here, I think dog owners should be able to use the beach and surroundings up to noon, and then again from about two hours before sunset.

That way, they can be exercised while the rest of us no longer have to put up with dogs snarling and fighting with one another, running amongst groups of people, including small children, and causing upset.

We also would not have to listen to half-wit owners shouting abuse at their disobedient pets or dogs deciding to creep up and have a little sniff around the backside or groin areas of those just trying to spent a couple of pleasant hours by the beach.

Oh, and not all of them pick up what their dogs leave behind.

If they think that no one has seen them do it, then they will often pretend not to have either!

Change on this subject in favour of the vast majority of beach users is long overdue.

We pay our Council Tax too.

In response to the Champion reader complaining about the dog walkers who use the park between Violet Road and Longfield Road.

How come there are no complaints about why the council workers only empty the bin every four to five weeks, instead of once a week like they used to do?

There wouldn’t be overflowing bins if they actually got their employees to do their job and empty them and take the bins away.

PICTURE of the week

Have a Macmillan’s Coffee Morning to help change lives MACMILLAN Cancer Support’s World Biggest Coffee Morning event is fast approaching and we would love for readers in Merseyside to get involved.

Cancer can affect every aspect of a person’s life, from their day-to-day living and relationships to their finances and mental health. Macmillan is there to help people with cancer live life as fully as they can.

Offering a broad range of cancer information and support services - including a free support line and a community of over 7,700 healthcare professionals - demand for Macmillan’s services is constantly growing, but we rely on the generosity of the public to provide this support.

Macmillan’s Coffee Morning takes place on Friday, September 28 (but people can host whenever they want) and people will be making a difference however they get involved.

Whoever they invite and whatever they serve, people are highly encouraged to host a Macmillan Coffee Morning in a way that suits them.

If people can’t bake, that doesn’t have to stop them.

Homes, workplaces and communities from the Shetland Islands to Land’s End will be hosting Coffee Mornings this year.

Readers in Merseyside can find events nearby using the interactive map on the Coffee Morning website (www.macmillan.org.uk/coffee).

Thank you to everyone who gets involved: every Coffee Morning changes lives.

Unfortunately I lost consciousness and have no memory of the event.

There would have been drivers stopped at the traffic lights who saw what happened or people behind me. So I would really appreciate anyone who saw what happened to get in touch. l Please contact the Champion if you can help.

Thank you for help after fall

Plaza Cinema is a great asset to area

As an imperfect practicing Roman Catholic, I think the RC clergy and hierarchy need to practice what they preach.

Too often they avoid giving deserved apologies – because open apologies mean admission of guilt.

So those who advocate confession for a healthy minded society should accept their own need for their guilt to be forgiven by society.

I would like to thank the lady who assisted and drove my wife Brenda home after she suffered a fall on Northway near the Iceland store in Maghull recently.

I felt that my thanks were insufficient at the time, so if you read this, thank you from Jim and Brenda Gillbanks.

I’d like to praise the Plaza Cinema in Waterloo after I enjoyed watching Mamma Mia recently.

The whole cinema was immaculately kept and very clean and all the staff were very polite and helpful.

It’s a great asset for the area and I’m glad to see it still doing so well and attracting audiences.

Youngsters help shape future of NHS SCHOOLCHILDREN from across Sefton have been sharing their views of the NHS in a bid to help shape its future.

Your Youth Health Day saw pupils from Maricourt Catholic High School in Maghull and Southport's Stanley High School work with Sefton Young Advisors, to learn which local NHS service is best for them if they are unwell or want some advice on their health and wellbeing.

The event was organised by NHS South Sefton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) and NHS Southport and Formby CCGs’ joint Engagement and Patient Experience Group (EPEG) which brings together representatives from organisations including Sefton Council, Healthwatch Sefton and Sefton Council for Voluntary Service (CVS) to look at how the CCGs can better involve resid-

ents and partners in their work.

The event saw pupils taken through everyday scenarios, how to lead a healthier lifestyle, and which NHS service to consider for a range of medical issues, ranging from when to get advice from local pharmacists and the NHS111 phone service for minor conditions, to when to call 999.

Ryan McCarthy from Sefton Young Advisors, said: “This event is about getting young people introduced to the health services they might have accessed or access in the future, looking at their knowledge and hopefully improving it by looking health scenarios which may affect them in the future.

“It’s also about looking at their feedback around health services because it’s really important because changes can be made from that and health services can be improved.”

This has been the second dedicated young person’s event organised by EPEG, led by Sefton Young Advisers and part of the CCGs’ commitment to ensuring the ‘voice of the child’ is recognised in health services.

Graham Bayliss, lay representative for patient and public engagement at NHS South Sefton CCG, added: “The NHS is all about listening to all its patients, but the voices of young people can sometimes get drowned out by adults.

“It's important we’re listening to young people and issues they have, as well as the areas of NHS services they're not sure about.”

Gill Brown, governing body lead for patient and public participation for NHS Southport and Formby CCG, said: "They've really changed my views about how we communicate with young people, especially around social media.”

Bettison to escape trial over charges of Hillsboro misconduct

MISTED WINDOWS? UPVC FAULTS?

ALL charges have been dropped against former South Yorkshire Police chief inspector, Sir Norman Bettison, who had been accused of trying to blame Liverpool fans for the Hillsborough disaster.

The 62-year-old, who attended the match, but was not on duty, had faced four counts of misconduct in a public office, but on Tuesday, August 21 it was confirmed these would be dropped.

Prosecutors from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said insufficient evidence meant there was no real prospect of securing a conviction and thisdecision had been taken following a review of the evidence and was confirmed at a hearing at Preston Crown Court.

Sue Hemming, CPS Director of Legal Services, said: “The CPS has a duty to keep all cases under continuing review. Since the original decision to charge Norman Bettison in June 2017 there have been a number of significant developments which have affected the available evidence. These include changes in the evidence of two witnesses and the death of a third witness.

“Our latest review of the evidence has concluded the collective impact of these developments means there is no longer a realistic prospect of conviction. I appreciate this news will be disappointing for the families and the CPS will meet with them in person to explain the decision.

“I would remind all concerned that although criminal proceedings are no longer active against Norman Bettison, there are five other defendants facing charges relating to Hillsborough and each has the right to a fair trial.

“It is therefore extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information which could in any way prejudice those proceedings.”

been dropped against Sir Norman Bettison, metro mayor of Liverpool city region Steve Rotheram issued a joint statement with Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham.

They said: “We are disappointed to hear this news and we fully support the decision of the families to seek a review.

“As long-standing supporters of the campaign for justice, our thoughts are with the bereaved families and survivors of the Hillsborough disaster, still reliving that day and its aftermath almost 30 years on.

“We will continue to support them in any way we can. Given the ongoing criminal prosecutions, we have nothing further to add at this time.”

Five others, including the match commander David Duckenfield, who is accused of manslaughter by gross negligence of 95 fans, are due to face trial next year.

Dickon White will be responsible for the performance of all three of the

racecourses, which stage 65 racing fixtures between them.

He has worked for JCR since 1998 and previously ran Haydock Park for six years as its managing director.

Paul Fisher, chief executive of Jockey Club Racecourses, said: “Dickon has had a fant-

astic career within Jockey Club Racecourses over the last 20 years and proved the standout candidate for this role on the back of his ideas for the future, excellent track record and the superb job he has done more recently as our group betting director.”

Culvert repair work has been completed on the canal. Picture by Tony Robertson.

Canal reopens after £600,000 culvert repairs A STRETCH of the Leeds & Liverpool Canal in Melling which was closed for more than two months when a culvert collapsed has now reopened after repairs were completed.

The work was carried out by the Canal and River Trust and cost around £600,000, and was completed in time for boats in the area to travel between Liverpool and Wigan over the bank holiday weekend.

The culvert, a large pipe that carries a stream beneath the canal, collapsed on June 12.

Thousands of litres of water drained from the canal.

Canal and River Trust staff and contractors have been on site over the past ten weeks to fix the culvert and bring the canal back into use.

As well as the structural repairs they carried out a fish rescue and were joined by local volunteers to

clear fly-tipped rubbish from the canal bed.

Richard Spencer, senior project manager at the Trust, said: “Starting with the initial response alongside the emergency services, right through to the finishing touches this week, it’s been a complex task.

“We’ve worked hard to get the canal and towpath open as soon as possible as we know they ’re much-loved by local people, so it’s great that everyone will be able to get out and about again on or by the water over the bank holiday weekend.

“The support for our charity’s work has been fantastic, and we thank all the volunteers who have given up their time to help care for their local waterway, ensuring everyone in the community can continue to enjoy a slice of waterside wellbeing in their daily lives.”

Owners urged to learn how to give pet first aid Report by Tom Martin OWNERS in Sefton are being urged to learn basic pet first aid skills which could save their furry friend's life.

Vet charity PDSA has launched the campaign and they have taught 1,000 pet owners and animal workers across the country with life-saving pet first aid skills over the last 18 months.

But the charity says many owners are not aware of simple steps they can take to help stabilise a pet in an emergency situation.

Olivia Anderson-Nathan, PDSA vet, said: “We teach first aid skills on our courses, which can equip pet owners with valuable skills to be 'first responders' if their pet gets into an accident. These don’t replace veterinary treatment, but in an emergency these could quite literally save a pet’s life.

“Even though it’s something you hope will never happen, it’s best to be proactive. Keeping a first aid kit in the car and in the bathroom cupboard and brushing up on the basics can make a real difference should an accident happen.

“Knowing your ABC’s for animals – airway, breathing and circulation – can help you to assess your pet if they collapse

Owners could save their pet's life with first aid skills

and give CPR if necessary.

Stemming bleeding using firm pressure or a temporary bandage can buy you valuable time until you can get your pet to the vets.

“We’ve seen several examples of pet owners putting our advice into practice after coming on our courses, where without them they might not have known what to do.”

Between January 2017 and July this year, PDSA hosted 93 courses attended by 1,103 animal lovers, teaching them skills such as pet CPR, bandaging and what to do if your pet suffers a seizure.

PDSA says there is growing interest in pet first aid and

plans to provide even more courses over the next year.

PDSA hosts the courses at various locations including its Pet Hospitals, community halls and buildings, as well as in partnership with local councils and housing associations.

The charity has also created a new pet first aid guide so people can learn the basics. It includes step-by-step instructions on what to do in the event of a road traffic accident, if your pet is poisoned, and several other scenarios. It also covers pet CPR and what to include in a pet first aid kit.

Funds approved to start work on Liverpool cruise liner terminal Report by Lucy Jones LIVERPOOL City Region Combined Authority, has approved money from its Single Investment Fund for a new Liverpool cruise liner terminal.

It is expected to directly create more than 500 new jobs and will also include an adjoining hotel and multi-storey car park.

Liverpool will welcome more than 57 vessels, with 100,000 passengers and crew.

The city council wants to capitalise on the cruise boom by creating a state of the art passenger and baggage facility, complete with passport control, lounge, café, toilets, taxi rank and vehicle pick up point, to cater for Liverpool’s growing appeal in the cruise industry.

This will contribute towards the construction of a new terminal building to replace the current temporary terminal on Princes Dock and will enable the world’s largest cruise ships to dock at Liverpool.

Steve Rotheram, Metro Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, said: “The visitor economy is increasingly important to the whole of the Liverpool City Region. It grew by 66% between 2009 and 2017 and is now worth more than £4.5bn per year – and a new cruise liner terminal will help this vital sector continue to flourish.

Metro mayor Steve Rotheram with Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson

“This is a unique project with the potential to boost the whole of the city region which is why as a Combined Authority, we are pleased to be able to offer this substantial support to one of the city council’s flagship initiatives.”

Mayor of Liverpool, Joe Anderson, said: “The new cruise liner terminal is vitally important and will mean that once again, we can welcome the greatest cruise ships in the world to the Mersey.

“The construction of this new terminal will mark a new chapter in the city’s maritime future, as we create a world class experience for the cruise companies and their passengers.

Councillor Phil Davies, the Combined Authority’s portfolio holder for Inclusive Growth, Economic Development, Digital and Innovation, said: “The visitor economy has become one of the major drivers for economic development in our city region and ensuring that we have a state-of-the-art cruise liner facility, will help to build on that success.”

The first phase of construction on the new terminal started in May this year, as site investigations were undertaken to understand the geology of the bedrock on which the new terminal complex will be constructed.

Wet weather fails to dampen spirits at MotorFest Report by Henry James ORMSKIRK MotorFest splashed into town as people of all ages braved wet weather to come to one of the North West's biggest free family days out, and there was plenty for people to enjoy.

Highly skilled drivers showed off their expertise competing in the AutoSOLO Challenge which was organised by Bolton-Le-Moors Car Club in association with Aintree Circuit Club.

More than 200 vehicles covering over a century of motoring and automotive heritage and history were on display in Ormskirk town centre and Coronation Park.

Star cars of the show included the Ginetta GT4 G55 driven by 19-year-old Ben Wallace, of Southport, in the British GT4 Championship and an Aston Martin 5.2 Litre V12 DB11 Coupe, provided by Aston Martin Wilmslow. The Aston Martin was wrapped in an exclusive Red Bull Racing digital camouflage livery designed to celebrate the partnership of Aston Martin and Red Bull Racing’s formula one venture.

There were also Bentleys, Ferraris, Porsches, Jaguars

and a whole host of other classic, competition and sports cars and motorcycles on display.

More than 110 vehicles took part in parade laps which legendary motor racing commentator Neville Hay and Classic Car Weekly editor David Simister commentated on to keep the crowds informed about the wonderful cars going around the town centre.

The Mayor’s Choice was awarded to Chris Walker, from Southport, with his crowd-pulling 1962 Aston Martin DB4.

Neville, David and former Top Gear presenter Steve Berry also used their expertise as judges in the Concours d’Elegance competition, which saw some of the best presented cars competing for prizes in individual classes, and David and Neville presented the prizes.

The overall winner was George Cross with his 1977 Ford Escort Ghia 1600.

The winner of the AutoSOLO was Will Shepherd, a lecturer from Accrington driving a Mazda Eunos (MX5). His overall time was 96.6 seconds who won by the narrowest margins of just 0.8sec. He represented Accrington Motorsport Club Ormskirk MotorFest is a free event organised by Aintree Circuit Club and supported by West Lancashire Borough Council.

West Lancs Deputy Mayor, Councillor Gaynar Owen presents the ‘Mayor’s Choice’ trophy to Chris Walker. With them are Deputy Mayoress, Bernie Green, judge David Simister and Mike Ashcroft from Aintree Circuit Club.

FREE QUOTES Southport’s Largest Family Run Business

AN artist has been turning litter into critters to celebrate the Irish Sea! Gail Pickett teamed up with the Lancashire Wildlife Trust’s marine community engagement officer, Sally Tapp to pick up beach litter for the project for a whole year.

They were joined by more than 240 adults and children who helped to create much of the marine wildlife populating the display, at community workshops held in local libraries over the summer.

The installation depicts an underwater scene that could easily be mistaken for a tropical ocean but every creature on display makes its home in our Irish Sea. It’s full of marine wildlife, from well-known species like turtles, dolphins and jellyfish to the weird and wonderful sea potato and ocean quahog.

The installation was revealed on Saturday in Crosby Library and Sally and Gail chatted to visitors about how the scene was created.

Sally said: “We’ve created our underwater world using plastic bottles, nets, ropes, old clothes, sack-

What do we offer that others don’t?

THE LARGEST BATHROOM SHOWROOM IN SOUTHPORT

ing, footballs & other recyclable waste collected on our local beaches.

“Gail has found a use for every form of litter.

There is a basking shark made from a sleeping bag and a washing basket, a ‘sock-topus’ sewn together from discarded clothing, a giant jellyfish made from abandoned lilos and many more engaging animals in the display.

“While the aim of the art piece is to highlight the resilience and variety of life in the Irish Sea, it also sends a sobering message about the amount of litter on beaches that ends up polluting our sea and coastline.

“Our seas are full of bright, colourful, charismatic creatures but decades of damaging activities, including pollution and overfishing, have put pressure on these animals and their home and created barren underwater landscapes dominated by litter.

If we continue to damage our marine environment, its beauty and wildlife will be lost.

“However, if we act more responsibly, then all our seas could look like our art installation.

The Santander volunteer team (from left): Steph Jones, James McMullin, Luke Miles, Paul Edwards and Clare Carrigan, with fresh produce at Emmaus Merseyside

Bank staff lend a hand to homeless charity BANK workers have enjoyed making a change – when they volunteered at a Merseyside-wide homelessness charity.

A team of five Santander UK staff spent a day volunteering at Emmaus Merseyside in Sefton.

They worked alongside formerly homeless people in the charity’s Participation Garden and on Seaforth Green, next to the Emmaus Merseyside community building.

The group of Santander UK volunteers helped with harvesting produce from the Participation Garden, completed work to create a raised bed and carried out improvement work to the Seaforth Green public space.

Paul Edwards, fraud team manager at Santander UK, said: “I had heard about Emmaus but wasn’t aware of how wonderful this charity is.

“I loved helping out with the garden and harvesting some of the home grown vegetables.

“We were made to feel welcome and we will definitely arrange another day in the near future.”

Clare Carrigan, fraud investigator added: “I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent at Emmaus. I learned

so much about the organisation and growing your own vegetables.

“The staff and companions where so friendly and the lunch provided was delicious. It was very well organised and I would love to do this again.”

The employee volunteer day at Emmaus Merseyside was part of Santander’s Discovery Days programme, allowing staff the time to volunteer and create a lasting impact on UK communities.

Angela Quinn, business manager at Emmaus Merseyside, said: “We’re extremely grateful to the volunteers from Santander UK for their hard-work and commitment throughout the day. It was a pleasure to welcome them to our Emmaus Merseyside community home and offer a rewarding experience that will have a lasting impact.”

Emmaus Merseyside supports formerly homeless people by providing them with a stable home and meaningful work for as long as they need it. The charity runs a social enterprise selling donated furniture, clothes, books, bikes, household goods and upcycled products, from three retail outlets.

INSTANT DECISION

I have been running through the history of rough collie dogs called Tina in my life.

But I realise now that I rather skimmed over Tina Two, which is a pity because she was something of a star in her own right.

She was very big for a collie bitch but never in her life did she engage in a fight.

She didn’t have to as she was sure she would win.

And no dog ever got round to finding out if she was right or not. She just gave ‘a look’ down her long nose and they backed down.

Her best story belongs to a family holiday on the Norfolk Broads (still then in a hired cruiser).

We were moored for lunch and Tina was sunning herself on the river bank beside the boat.

Possibly 50 yards or so away another cruiser disgorged a rather large German Shepherd which spotted Tina and started to run towards her.

What its intentions were I have no idea. Tina, however, decided she wanted none of it and stood, four-square across the towpath, simply looking at her approaching would-be nemesis.

It ended rather like a Disney cartoon. The unstoppable Alsation simply collided at speed with the flank of the (almost) immoveable Tina.

In fact, Tina was shoved sideways about two feet while her assailant was set back on his haunches.

Tina just turned her head and glared at him - and if looks could talk, she most obviously said: ‘How DARE you!?’.

The surprised dog simply whimpered and ran back to his boat, tail between his legs.

Which kind of brings up to date - Tina Four.

When my present Tina arrived as a pup, my late brother George had his own rough collie, Buttons.

Happily, Tina and Buttons rubbed along together and all was well until two rather tragic events upset the dog apple cart as it were.

Poor Buttons drowned while on holiday on the Broads.

She must have been 13 or 14 at the time and we never knew if she had simply fallen in, or possibly

had a heart attack and slipped into the river.

It was a pitch dark at the time and Buttons and George were returning to the boat when he lost contact with her.

Anyway, poor Buttons was no more - and George obtained a new pup, ‘Cinders,’ Now George and I were living together in the old family home by then, and we had high hopes that Tina (Four) would ‘mother ’ the puppy.

But no, Tina totally ignored the interloper and hoped it would go away.

By the time Cinders was growing into adulthood though the pair of them had settled into more or less an older and younger sister relationship.

Which generally is fine - except that sisters can squabble which leads to the thankfully rare fight.

Things did however become more difficult when George died - and little Cinders was left bereft.

If she hoped for solace from Tina she would have been disappointed.

Tina obviously expected things to go along as ‘normal.’ She expected long lone walks with me, and to share my bedroom (sans Cinders) as she had come to expect.

As for Cinders - she behaved rather well.

At first she spent long hours lying by the front door awaiting George’s return - but I reckon her greed saved her to a large extent, since meals remained sacrosanct.

And after an unsuccessful attempt at allowing both to sleep in my bedroom (a fight broke out at about 3am), Cinders decided she would sleep in George’s (and her) old room so now she must be one of the few dogs in Maghull with her own room.

Now though peace generally rules - though Tina tends to bully Cinders and they tend to spend most of their time in different parts of the house.

But they are at their best these days when walking together - and greedy Cinders has even managed to curb her instincts and never, but never, poke her nose into Tina’s food bowl until it is empty.

Casualty star heading to city for new production

The Prodigy

Dance act The Prodigy announce Arena tour THE Prodigy has announced they will play Echo Arena Liverpool on Thursday, November 8 to tie in with their seventh studio album No Tourists which is released on November 2.

Always uncompromising, The Prodigy’s influence can be seen across generations, turning metal kids onto raving and ravers into metalheads.

The band has clocked up a stag-

gering six number one albums, sold 30 million records, played to many millions around the world, and won multiple honours (two Brits, two Kerrang! awards, five MTV awards, two Grammy nominations).

Though much has changed in the musical and social landscape, what remains a constant is The Prodigy’s resolute focus to always do things their own unique way.

CASUALTY star Richard Winsor, acclaimed for his dance, stage and screen work, is set to play Tony Manero, the role which famously rocketed John Travolta to screen stardom, in a new stage production of Saturday Night Fever.

The show will be at the Liverpool Empire from Tuesday, September 11 until Saturday, September 15.

As a dancer Richard Winsor hardly needs introduction: principle dancer with Matthew Bourne for ten years, he has starred around the world, leading Bourne’s celebrated production of Swan Lake, as well as Dorian Gray, Edward Scissorhands, The Car Man and Play Without Words.

He landed the lead role in cult dance movie StreetDance 3D and was snapped up by the BBC to play Caleb Knight in flagship medical drama Casualty, a role in which he gripped audiences for more than three years until his dramatic exit last year, which shocked the star’s millions of fans as he lost his life in a knife fight.

This hotly anticipated new musical production, produced by Bill Kenwright by special arrangement with The Robert Stigwood Organisation, sees Richard Winsor take on his first leading role in a major musical, and, his first stage appearance since Casualty.

Ignite The Inferno. Feel The Fever. Like Never Before 40 years since its famous UK cinema release, Saturday Night Fever is a reimagined and revitalised music and dance spectacular.

Opening in London at the New Wimbledon Theatre on August 30, the nationwide tour includes Liverpool, Dublin, Birmingham, Bristol, Aylesbury, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Blackpool, Llandudno, Bradford and Cardiff. Saturday Night Fever tells the story of Tony Manero, and his reckless, yet thrilling road to dancing suc-

Richard Winsor

cess. The musical features the Bee Gees’ greatest hits including Stayin’ Alive, How Deep Is Your Love, Night Fever, Tragedy and More Than a Woman as well as 70’s favourites Boogie Shoes, Disco Inferno and for the first time will feature a group playing the Bee Gees live on stage.

The 70’s classic Paramount/RSO movie, with story by Nik Cohn, was an instant hit when it was released in cinemas. The album remains the best-selling movie

soundtrack of all time.

While paying homage to the movie, this new stage version promises more drama, more music and hot new choreography. It is directed and produced by Bill Kenwright, with choreography by Olivier Award winning Bill Deamer, designs by Gary McCaan, lighting by Nick Richings, and sound by Dan Samson. The stage adaptation is by Robert Stigwood in collaboration with Bill Oakes.

Magic, music and mayhem promised when Sooty returns FOLLOWING a popular UK tour last year Sooty, Sweep and Soo are back on the road this Autumn, with a new date announced at Southport Theatre on Saturday, September 8 at 10.30am.

Ahead of the launch of a new series of The Sooty Show airing on ITVBe in September, and following the recent celebrations at Blackpool Pier for Sooty’s 70th birthday in July, Sooty, Sweep and Soo head to Southport Theatre accompanied by TV’s Richard Cadell and special guest magicians Michael Jordan and Darren Mac Magic.

Expect magic, music and mayhem, with buckets full of audience participation.

There will also be a chance to meet Richard and Sooty after the show. Join us for this sparkling new production, but definitely don’t expect Sooty to be on his best behaviour…!

Southport date, Richard Cadell said: “Sooty can’t wait to come to Southport Theatre! Not only will his fans be able to enjoy lots of

laughs and fun with the nation’s favourite bear, Sooty and I will also be joined by his companions Sweep and Soo. Sooty’s got

a new high-powered water pistol for this special occasion, so bring your raincoats!” editorial@champnews.com

Sefton Council in partnership with Sefton CVS has dedicated 2018 as the Year of the Volunteer!

Following on from the huge success of the Year of the Coast, the tireless work of Sefton’s thousands of volunteers, who give thousands of hours of their time each week, is being celebrated in a year long campaign to raise awareness of how much volunteers do for the borough. Volunteers make a real difference in Sefton. They touch people’s lives in so many different ways, providing comfort and support, fostering community development, and actively helping to keep Sefton clean, green and beautiful. Volunteering also has a positive impact on the health and wellbeing of those who participate in it. To learn more about the Year of the Volunteer and how to get involved visit www.volunteeringsefton.org.uk

Animal Shelter Teams Up With Foodbanks for YOV

Bootle-Based YKids Is On The Look Out For Volunteers!

Volunteers Needed To Create A Real Buzz In Formby!

Formby based Freshfields Animal Rescue are working with volunteers at various Sefton food banks to provide additional support to vulnerable animals.

Food Banks are fulfilling a vital role in today’s society, providing a lifeline for people who are in need of the most immediate and urgent help to care for their families.

Most roles are children & youth work focused and YKids is particularly looking for people who have time in the evenings- ideally at least one day per week.

This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone who has, or is looking to work in education to help in its after schools program.

An appeal has been launched, via B 4 Biodiversity & the Sefton Year of the Volunteer campaign, to find fresh faced volunteers who would love to get involved with Formby’s very own beehive.

For more information on this opportunity please visit the website featured at the bottom of this advert.

Andrea Ku of B 4 Biodiversity works closely with Formby Library to maintain a special apiary within the Duke Street site as part of the Beehive and Bookworms project.

Scouting For Volunteers Church Heritage Project Needs Volunteers Thanks to a Heritage Lottery Fund grant, St Nicholas’ Church in Blundellsands are launching a new project.

The grant will help St Nicholas’ to extend its role as a heritage centre and community resource. A team of volunteers will support this work, by promoting the church’s heritage at public events, acting as guides for visitors and helping in the church’s new refreshment area.

Become a Clean-up Champion April is the Year of the Volunteer’s Clean, Green and Beautiful environment month, where we celebrate volunteers who help keep our borough beautiful.

The 22 miles spanning between Southport and Seaforth are some of the most iconic, idyllic and important stretches of coastline in the UK but it takes a lot of work to make our coastline the sandy success that it is!

www.mysefton.co.uk For more information and all volunteering opportunities

Southport District Scouts are currently looking to fill two strategic voluntary positions. Southport District covers Ainsdale through to Crossens, and Southport District Scouts provides a programme of activities and learning experiences for over 200 young people across the area.

Of course, these activities can only be delivered with the support of adult volunteers in a variety of roles.

Food Banks & Anti Poverty Each month the Year of the Volunteer campaign focuses on a special theme, and some of the areas that we will look to highlight soon include Health & Wellbring and Youth Volunteering. We’ve been catching up with a number of volunteer organisations and individuals, including South Sefton Foodbank and Lakeside Foodbank, Southport, who regularly spend hundreds of hours each month to help families and those in need of emergency food supplies.

But how can you get involved?

A dedicated ‘hub’ for volunteers past, present and future has been set up at:

www.volunteeringSefton.org.uk It has the very latest events, news and information you need to find the perfect opportunity for you.

PRAYERS

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN Never known to fail.

O most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, faithful Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in this necessity, O Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my Mother, O Holy Mary Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succour me in my necessity.

(Make Request).

There are none that can withstand your powers. Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (3 Times).

Sweet Mother, I place this cause in your hands (3 times).

Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine.

This prayer must be said for three days and after that the request will be granted and the prayer must be published.

IT’D TAKE more spin than a wayward TVR to pretend otherwise, so I might as well deal with the rather damp elephant in the room first. Last weekend’s Ormskirk MotorFest was a bit of a washout.

West Lancashire’s Bank Holiday homage to horsepower has had it lucky right from that inaugural outing way back in 2011 to last year’s event, becoming Ormskirk’s single biggest trading day in the process, but the winning streak with the weather had to run out eventually.

The town centre displays looked as striking as ever but the crowds that turned out to see them were rather smaller than in previous years, and during the afternoon parades what would normally be heaving crowds behind the barriers turned out to be a gathering of brollywielding onlookers braving the awful weather. Turnout was down too, with some car and bike owners deciding it wasn’t worth the soaking.

But if you didn’t go you missed a treat, because on a day defined entirely by the downpours there were plenty of rays of automotive sunshine.

There was, for instance, Pauline Ryding’s delightfully daft Dodge Viper GTS, which I admired principally because it attempted to deafen me every time it thundered past the commentary box – but even that wasn’t a patch on the stock car parade, the most vocal of which had

This Panhard won our motors expert over in Ormskirk last weekend

Chevy and Chrysler V8s doing their bidding. I also couldn’t help but smile when Ian Williams’ Triumph TR3A and David Grant-Wilkes’ MG TC whizzed their way around Ormskirk’s one-way system, roofs down despite the constant downpours, because that’s how leaky old British sports cars are supposed to be driven.

Then there were the concours entrants, which fellow old car nut and motor sport commentating legend Neville Hay and I had the joy of judging over a rather damp two hours. George Cross’ meticulously maintained Ford Escort – which has covered just 12,000 miles in 41 years – was a deserving winner, but I couldn’t help having a soft spot for Tony Bates’ Datsun 260Z and Damian Lynch’s Ferrari 330.

But the one that really caught my eye,

even in a show dominated by the plucky and British, was something chic and French. Edward Bernand’s 1965 Panhard wasn’t only wonderful to look at but the culmination of a 32-year-restoration, courtesy of an owner who’s cherished it for 50 years.

What’s more, because Edward finally finished restoring the car last year this was its first-ever outing in Ormskirk – for me, it was the star of the show.

So even when the MotorFest doesn’t have the weather on its side it can still chuck a few genuinely exciting cars in Ormskirk’s direction.

As for next year, maybe if we all chip in we can get the council to stick a giant umbrella above Coronation Park. Just a thought!

Northern one win from Premier Division title after draw with Ormskirk NORTHERN have a 60 point lead at the top of the Premier Division and need to win one of their three remaining fixtures in order to be crowned champions, after they held second placed Ormskirk to a draw at Moor Park last Saturday.

Ormskirk chose to bat and declared after 52.4 overs on 160-7, thanks largely to 79 from Lancashire’s Josh Bohannon, whilst Justin Snow took 3-41 with the ball.

In reply, an unbeaten 53* from Australian

Hayden McCrae hits unbeaten half century Hayden McCrae and 34 from Chris Laker saw Northern through to the close on 1092.

Third placed Formby’s home match against Lytham was washed out by the rain. l Maghull’s First Division match at Spring View was washed out by the rain.

Williams sees Bootle home in a high scoring thriller FOR the second week running Firwood Bootle were involved in a match which produced in excess of 500 runs, though on this occasion they finished on the winning rather than the losing side when Rainhill visited Wadham Road last Saturday.

Craig Prince invited his opponents to bat first and saw their openers Tyler McGladdery (76) and Mike Rotheram (59) raise 125 for their team’s first wicket on a pitch which was mostly batsmen friendly throughout the game.

As the home bowlers toiled to little avail, runs flowed freely and, with further useful contributions from Ross Higham (47) and Matthew Fletcher (33), Rainhill were able to

COUNTY cricket returns to Southport & Birkdale Sports Club this Wednesday, August 29 to Saturday, September 1 when Lancashire play Worcestershire at Trafalgar Road with play due to start

declare on 262-5, though they had needed 67 overs to reach that total.

Bootle were left with 48 in return but were kept in contention by two healthy partnerships of 72 for the first wicket by Will Hale and Michael Farrell, and 94 for the 3rd from Farrell and Vishal Tripathi, the former striking fourteen boundaries in his excellent 117 made from 135 balls.

As the match reached its closing stages the asking rate had shot up to above nine runs per over but a crucial 30 not out by Neil Williams from 17 deliveries saw Bootle home by four wickets with one over to spare.

This coming Saturday Bootle entertain Formby in the Premier League.

each day at 11am.

This weekend’s local LDCC fixtures (noon start): Bootle v Formby, Highfield v Ormskirk, Northern v Lytham, Burscough v Prestatyn, Wigan v Fleetwood Hesketh, Alder v Maghull, St

Helens T’n v Hightown St Mary’s and Sp’t Trinity v Sutton, please note that the Ainsdale v Southport & Birkdale fixture was played earlier in the season due to S&B hosting Lancashire this week.

Bucks recover to earn share of points West Didsbury & Chorlton 2 Bootle 2 SECOND-half goals from Carl Peers and Johnny Foy helped Bootle to a point on Saturday recovering from being two goals down inside the opening 21 minutes, writes Connor O’Neill.

It was a spirited second-half comeback and on another afternoon it could have been all three, with the Bucks spurning a host of chances.

Things, couldn't have started any worse for Phil Stafford's side.

Shortly after Ben Jago had cleared an effort off the line the hosts opened the scoring as Andrew Leather‘s low cross found its way to Junior Dos Santos who finished side-footed past Ryan Jones.

The hosts started to dominate and doubled their lead with Dos Santos this time turning the provider, the winger squaring the ball to Saul Henderson who coolly finished under the on-rushing Jones.

Four minutes later and West nearly had a third. Matt Eckersley rose highest to connect with Leather's corner, but the West captain saw his header cleared off the line

by Jago. On the stroke of half-time Bootle were awarded a penalty when Richard Botchley was adudged to have brought down Carl Peers but Jago’s spot kick was saved

by Marcus Burgess before the West keeper superbly blocked the follow-up.

Two minutes into the second-half Bootle did score when Ste Milne's cross was flicked into the path of Peers

by Antony Hickey, with the midfielder finishing first time from the tightest of angles.

Eight minutes later Kieran Haligan crossed for Johnny Foy who toe-poked the ball under Burgess from 10-yards out.

From there, Bootle dominated, with Hickey and Peers both firing wide before Andrew Gillespie fired over from an acute angle. Milne saw an effort pushed over by Burgess before Gillespie headed Liam Loughlin's cross wide from six-yards out.

At the other end, Bailey volleyed over after connecting perfectly with Leather's deep cross.

Bootle were denied all three points when Burgess produced a stunning save to deny Foy his second of the afternoon. Collecting the ball inside the West box the substitute did everything right before curling an effort that looked to be heading into the top corner, but Burgess somehow got across and up to push the ball wide.

Bootle lost 3-0 at Congelton Town on Monday with all teh goals being conceded in the first half of a match which only kicked off at 4pm due to traffic congestion on the M6.

Marine defenders attempt to block a shot from Basford United on Saturday. Picture by Paul Moran.

Doyle on target for Mariners’ first win Lancaster City 0 Marine 1 AN early goal from Chris Doyle gave Marine their first win of the season on Bank Holiday Monday.

After only two minutes Doyle scored the only goal of the game, which was hotly disputed by the Lancaster players who contended that the ball did not cross the line.

The Mariners were put under pressure towards the end of the game, against a team who have now lost all four of their league matches and had conceded 12 goals in their three first games.

It is Marine’s first win so far in the four games they have played in the league, having drawn two and lost the other.

Marine 1 Basford United 4 A SHAMBLES of a second half led to a heavy home defeat for Marine.

Basford scored the first goal of the game in the sixth minute through a headed effort by Kieran Fenton, who was afforded the opportunity by a

poorly defended corner.

The Mariners crept into the game as time went on and throughout the first 45 minutes James Murray was clearly the Mariners’ brightest spark.

Marine pulled level when Craig Carney made it two goals in two appearances at home this season with a powerful effort from the edge of the box to level the scoreline nine minutes from half-time.

Marine started the second half very brightly, Basford seemingly changed their formation five minutes into the half, bringing on Lewis Carr for Harry Wakefield and playing three at the back.

The change of formation allowed Liam Bateman and Ellis Storey more freedom to ruin Marine’s afternoon and, against the run of play, Nathan Watson restored Basford’s lead in the 63rd minute.

Watson struck again a few minutes later to make it 3-1. Danny Mitchley did come on for Marine with 20 minutes left but there was little he could do to turn the game around.

Courey Grantham grabbed Basford’s fourth goal of the game ten minutes from time to make it 41.

Marine host Grantham Town on Saturday and then travel to Witton Albion On Tuesday

Unbeaten Maghull go top of table South Liverpool 0 Maghull 2 A MIDWEEK home win over Marshalls followed by a similar 2-0 scoreline at reigning champions South Liverpool on Saturday saw Maghull go to the top of the West Cheshire League First Division.

Skipper Elliot Toner and Marcus Stewart scored the goals at

01704 392 392

South and so extended their impressive five match unbeaten run.

Meanwhile a youthful Maghull Reserves opened their account with a 4-2 victory over Prescot Cables Reserves at home in midweek and then returned a 3-2 success against visitors West Kirby Reserves at the weekend.

Mike Cummins, Sam Lawrenson, Max Hornby and Marco

Parvas were on target in midweek whilst on Saturday Mike Cummins, Dave Lynch, Alex Moffit and Marco Parvas all netted.

Next Saturday Maghull’s first team are at Old Hall Field when they entertain another unbeaten outfit Newton while the Reserves travel to Rainhill Town Reserves in a second division encounter. Both kick offs are at 3pm
