Full story inside

A JUNIOR football club have taken over a neglected playing field in Crosby in the hope of giving it a new lease of life.

Crosby Stuart FC have an agreement in place with Sefton Council to look after Brook Vale Playing Fields and they want to create a “great and wellmaintained facility” for both themselves and the wider community.

As well as improve the football pitches, they also want to replace the rundown changing rooms.

The new facility will also contain a cafe to be open on weekends and a community hall for other groups and activities.

Crosby Stuart FC used to play matches at Brook Vale until they were asked to vacate in 2017 and move to pitches in Kew, so this will be a welcome return for the club.

They have more than 300 players, both boys and girls, who play a wide range of different age groups from Under 6s to Under 17s.

The club’s general manager Frankie Meadows,

Frankie Meadows at Brook Vale Playing Fields

said: “Two years ago we were asked to vacate Brook Vale and locate to pitches in Kew, Southport. We challenged this decision and remained playing our games but at a cost to the club. Now we have a lease we are responsible for the work and upkeep.

“The council have been great and support from our local councillors has also been very rewarding.

“Our recent work has been done on a shoestring and volunteers from the teams giving us time and effort on ground preparation.

“Our plans are to provide a great and well maintained facility for Crosby Stuart FC, for the players to play and train on.

TWO rampaging burglars who ransacked and damaged properties across Sefton including the Bootle YMCA and Maghull Community Centre have been jailed.

Darren Tynan and Dean Kane, who targeted premises in Southport, Formby, Maghull, Bootle and West Derby, were put behind bars for a combined seven and a half years at Liverpool Crown Court.

A court heard on Monday, October 14, that not content with stealing cash, they smashed their way into the properties and ransacked them, wrecking furniture and fittings and causing unnecessary bills and headaches for the victims.

Putting Tynan and Kane behind bars a judge said they had broken into the premises in the early hours of the morning during a five week “burglary campaign.”

They disabled alarm systems and ransacked the properties, mainly small businesses or community resources, “in some cases causing gratuitous destruction and damage,” said Judge Brian Cummings.

Their targets included the YMCA in Bootle and Maghull Community Centre “in which decent people invested a lot of time and effort and in which they had an emotional stake and time and again they speak not only of financial loss but distress resulting from the devastation.

“The YMCA is a valuable community resource in an already deprived area and decent people put their hearts and souls into building it up and maintaining it and you destroyed it,” said Judge Cummings.

Tynan, 40, of no fixed address, who had pleaded guilty to eight burglaries and two attempted burglaries was jailed for four and a half years.

Kane, 26, of Sceptre Walk, Norris Green, who had admitted three burglaries and two attempted burglaries was put behind bars for three years.

Nardeen Nemat, prosecuting, told Liverpool

Crown Court that the offences took place in May and June.

The raid at the YMCA on May 5 caused £10,000 worth of damage and in a victim impact statement, Ken Rouse, told how he and his wife had put their “heart and soul” into the place and were devastated at the gratuitous destruction caused by the two men.

He explained that the premises is run on a voluntary basis and are used by both young and old, as well as a scout group.

The intruders took just £20 and 15 bottles of spirits but “trashed every room, every door and door frame was smashed.”

Miss Nemat said other targeted properties were The Book Restaurant, the Mill restaurant; Sienna Hair and Beauty, all in West Derby; Maghull Community Cente; office premises in Elbow Lane, Formby; Flames, Tiger Bar, Big Als - all takeaways in Southport; Leo’s Bar and Don Luigi’s takeaway in Formby.

The court heard that Tynan had committed 64 previous offences and Kane had carried out 30 offences, both their records involving burglaries and theft. Kane was the subject of a community order for battery at the time of the offences.

Mark Phillips, defending, said Tynan “has expressed how sorry he is,” adding, “he was not a lost cause.”

Kane’s lawyer, Laura Tipping, said that the fatherof-four got involved because of “financial hardship and poor thinking skills.” She urged the judge to suspend any prison sentence saying it would not address his problems and said he had made good progress under the community order.

Barbara Rouse, who volunteers at the Bootle YMCA, welcomed the sentencing. She said: “I am very grateful to Merseyside Police and all involved for their excellent diligence, arrests and ultimate sentencing.

“Thank you to everyone in our community for your support. You are all stars I have been totally overcome, and overwhelmed, but knew I have the most amazing, supportive community and friends.”

Antiques store salvages the weird and wonderful!

Report by Tom Martin

Joe Caldon inside his unique antique shop.

Junior football club plan to revive playing fields From Page 1.

“As well as the pitches we are going to build a community hall and the building will have changing rooms and a weekend cafe.

“We would like to offer our elder population some leisure activity in the community hall by day and night.

“This is for now and for future generations.”

Frankie believes the time is right to take over Brook Vale after witnessing a decline in maintenance of council-run playing fields in south Sefton.

He said: “Council cut backs have seen us lose pitches, such as Chaffers, and the maintenance on Brook Vale has been minimal, so the time was right to try ensure our 300 plus members have a home.

“The obstacles we are facing are all financial. There are small grants we can apply for but for the bigger grants we would need a 25 year lease, which we don’t have yet.

“We will be looking for any busi-

ness to help with sponsorship.”

Crosby Stuart say they have already spoke to members of the local community, including residents from the Brook Vale Community Group, who have backed the proposals.

Frankie said: “We first contacted the Brook Vale Community Group and we were so well received by people who are passionate about the area they live.

“We acknowledge there will be some disturbance but we will strive to keep it to a minimum.

“The pitches have been there for many years and all we are doing is make them better and safer than they ever have been.”

One problem the club faces is motorists using the playing fields to park their cars, and Frankie says this is damaging the grass.

He said: “Unfortunately we have suffered damage to pitches by irresponsible drivers. It’s disheartening when we have worked hard. This has forced us to lock the gates so please don’t drive on the grass.”

OWNERS of an antiques shop in Litherland who say “we pride ourselves on obtaining the unusual” have certainly lived up to their promise since opening their business!

Joe Caldon and Larry James, who opened Black Dog Salvage at a former garden centre in Sefton Street, have got their hands on some weird and wonderful items.

Collecting their stock in their antiques store and scrap yard, the pair have bought everything from an old barber’s chair to a hanging stag head as well as quirky ornaments and clocks.

They say old and unwanted items, which many would toss in the bin or

recycling centre, “shine like treasure to us” and they can either sell them in their current state or take the time to give it a fresh lick of paint.

Joe said: “Rob and I set up Black Dog Salvage because of our shared passion for the curious, odd, old and dusty!

“We find items people are throwing out or taking to the recycling centre.

“Old items shine like treasure to us. Our love for the stories and tall tales behind old objects we collected got us talking about starting our own salvage yard.”

“We like the location, just across from the Liverpool and Leeds Canal with its mix of cafes and wine bars.”

The name their business was inspired

by Rob’s pet Rottweiler, Belle!

Joe said: “Rob’s young pup Rottweiler has lost its usual tan makings and he said

‘she's a mahogany dog.’ That got us thinking about old Victorian furniture and. Black Dog just evolved from there!”

Since they opened their business in June, one of their most unusual finds came after they were invited to explore an abandoned barbers nearby.

Joe said: “In the dusty attic we found an old barber’s chair which we bought for a fiver. It was beautifully engineered with opulent green faded leather. The current market value for a trendy barbers is around £400!”

The pair are urging local people to pay them a visit to see their unusual items.

“You never know what you may leave with, but it’s the community spirit, the laughs and the Scousers looking for bargains that we love. We are always welcoming and the kettle is always on.”

Report by Tom Martin A 12 YEAR OLD boy who died on a railway line in Bootle on Monday evening was killed after being electrocuted, it is believed.

The victim, who has been named locally as James Myres, was declared dead at the scene at around 7pm.

British Transport Police (BTP) officers had attended the scene, which was on a stretch of the tracks close to Bedford Road, following reports that two children had been spotted on the railway line.

A man who lives nearby said he had called emergency services after hearing “screams” for help.

Flowers with tributes have since been placed next to a fence leading up to the railway line near to where the tragic incident took place.

One of them reads: “Shine bright like a diamond, you were the happiest little boy. You will be missed.”

Officers confirmed his injuries were consistent with electrocution and the incident is not being treated as suspicious.

The boy’s family have been informed and are being supported by specially trained family liaison officers. At the time the Champion went to press, the family were requesting privacy and chose not to release any comment or tribute.

Detective Chief Inspector Steve Lewis said: “This is an incredibly tragic incident which I know will have shocked many in the local community.

“I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the boy’s family and request that they are given the space and privacy they need to come to terms with this devastating loss.

The incident took place near to Bedford Road.

“While we have no reason to be believe there were any suspicious circumstances to this incident, we are still working to establish the full circumstances behind the boy’s death.

“I would like to appeal to anyone in the area who may have seen two young boys close to the tracks around this time to get in touch with us. You can do so by texting 61016 or calling 0800 40 50 40 quoting reference 488 of 14/10/19.”

Trains in the area were cancelled while emergency workers dealt with the incident between Sandhills and Waterloo train stations on the Northern Line.

Merseyrail issued the following statement: “A death on our rail network is always incredibly upsetting, but especially so when it happens to someone of such a young age. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the young boy who lost his life during this difficult time.

“A railway network can be an extremely hazardous environment, especially when there is an electrified rail involved. We would remind all members of the public not to attempt to access the track or trackside areas in any circumstances.”

Preliminary drilling work to start for Rimrose Valley road Report by Tom Martin

PRELIMINARY drilling work has started on the project to build a road through Rimrose Valley Country Park.

Highways England say this is part of its ‘ground investigation survey,’ which will involve drilling boreholes and digging small trenches at a number of spots in the park and nearby locations.

They say small drilling rigs and digging machinery will be at the site for several weeks.

But they added that by the time the surveys finish, “the area will be returned to its present condition, Protesters staging a recent protest in Rimrose Valley with the boreholes and trenches Stuart Bennett, of the Save Rimrose Valley group, filled in.”

A DEVELOPMENT to build a block of 30 flats in Netherton at the site of a former pub that was demolished, will feature a range of improvements to nearby roads.

Social housing provider One Vision Housing (OVH) are in the process of constructing the flats on Fleetwoods Lane after the former Cabbage Inn pub was bulldozed.

As part of the stipulations of the development being approved, the council requires OVH to make a

number of changes to the nearby roads.

This includes a new ‘Keep Clear’ marking on the road, the relocation of a 20mph sign and bus stop, the removal of bollards next to the site and the creation of double yellow lines.

OVH will also pay for the reconstruction of the footway across the front of the site on Fleetwoods Lane, Gorsey Lane and St Christopher’s Avenue.

The Cabbage Inn patch of land is in a prominent location in Netherton, on the corner of the busy junction of Fleetwoods Lane and Gorsey Lane and opposite Bootle and Netherton Community Fire Station, which thousands of motorists pass on a daily basis.

Merseyside Police to recruit 200 officers after funding boost But crime commissioner says it falls well short of 1,200 that Force has lost since 2010

MOBILITY BATHROOMS AND ADDITIONAL TOILETS ARE OUR SPECIALITY We are the longest established installation company on Merseyside

Report by Tom Martin MERSEYSIDE Police is set to recruit 200 new officers after a government funding boost - but the crime commissioner says it falls well short of the 1,120 lost by the Force since 2010.

The funding boost is part of the Home Office's promise to increase officer numbers by 20,000 nationally over the next three years, and Merseyside could get an extra 660 in that period.

Merseyside’s Police Commissioner, Jane Kennedy, welcomed the announcement, but said it fell well short of the number of officers lost in the last nine years and said the allocation of funding around the country was unfair.

Merseyside’s Police Commissioner, Jane Kennedy She said: “I welcome the announcement of 200 extra officers for Merseyside as a starting point this allocation of 78 this year; a surprise given the year. However, since 2010, Merseyside Police has county lost only eight officer posts in ten years of austerity. lost 1,120 officers.

BREXIT – THE SAVIOUR OF ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WHIPLASH CLAIMS… FOR NOW In 2017 the Government began its journey of trying to introduce the Civil Liability Bill. This piece of legislation, partially came in to force in December 2018 as the Civil Liability Act 2018, with disputed parts of the Act remaining in limbo thanks to the continuing negotiations regarding the UK’s departure from the EU. So what does this mean for people involved in road traffic accidents? Currently, an individual has the ability to approach almost any litigation solicitor for assistance in making a claim for damages related to the injuries they have sustained as a result of their innocent involvement in a road traffic accident. This is because, most of these solicitors can currently offer a ‘no-win, no- fee’ funding arrangement to ensure their clients do not need to pay any legal fees up front. This is down to the fact that, generally, most people suffer whiplash type injuries in these accidents, the value of which is generally expected to exceed £1,000. If a current claim involving whiplash attains or exceeds this figure the solicitor gets paid fixed costs from the at fault driver’s insurer and the process is financially viable for the solicitor and for their client.

Under the new Civil Liability Act, these provisions are set to change. A party suffering from whiplash injuries has to establish that their injuries are so severe that they would attain or exceed a value of £5,000 before their solicitor can receive their fixed costs legal fees from the at fault driver’s insurer.

This is, by in large, an unrealistic outcome for the bulk of these claims and as such the vast majority of solicitors helping these clients will no longer be able to offer them the benefit of a ‘no-win, no-fee’ agreement and will instead be paid privately by their clients – an often expensive exercise.

Currently, the unacted parts of the Civil Liability Act seem to have been pushed to the back of the Government’s agenda given the ongoing issues relating to Brexit.

We are not sure when the remainder of the Act will become law and we see no current stance for the changes to be applied retrospectively to claims already ongoing. In essence, if you were injured in a road traffic accident in the last 3 years and it was not your fault – act immediately to make a claim for the compensation you are entitled to.

Dickinson Parker Hill can offer a ‘no win, no-fee’ agreement to anyone who was injured in a road traffic accident as above so please contact our specialist litigation Solicitor, Sam Seagraves on 01695 574 201 to discuss your options today.

Young deaf singer Amelia shows off her talents at national charity event

‘This showed that with the right support we can aim for the stars’ Report by Tom Martin A YOUNG deaf performer from Crosby was invited to take part in a workshop of music, dance and drama by a national charity.

Amelia Stewart, 14, showed off her musical talents at the showcase event, called Raising the Bar, which was held recently in Birmingham.

The teenager was selected by the National Deaf Children’s Society from dozens of hopefuls to take part and she enjoyed a weekend of workshops that culminated in a showcase performance.

Amelia, along with 19 other talented youngsters, spent the weekend at the Ruddock Performance Arts Centre being mentored by professional deaf musicians, dancers and actors before demonstrating her talents onstage in front of dozens of parents, family and friends.

The Raising the Bar event was designed to inspire deaf young people and show that there is nothing in the arts that deaf children can’t achieve with the right support.

Mentoring the deaf young performers were the leading deaf performance companies Music and the Deaf, Deaf Men Dancing and Deafinitely Theatre.

The 20 deaf young people, ranging in age from eight to 16, were selected after an application process that saw them submit videos of their talents in music, dance and drama, demonstrating the skills they had acquired, their personal journeys and the barriers they had overcome.

Damian Ball of the National Deaf Children’s Soci-

Amelia Stewart

ety, said: “It filled me with pride to watch Amelia and the other deaf youngsters display their incredible talents – what a wonderful evening filled with truly memorable performances!

“It was great to see so many deaf young people showing their families, friends and each other exactly what can be achieved in life with a bit of belief, drive and dedication.

“So often I hear people think deaf people can’t achieve in life – but this couldn’t be further from the truth.

“This weekend demonstrated so clearly that with the right support, deaf young people can aim for the stars and prove the doubters wrong.”

‘Pimp your drinks’ online business is going down well!

Report by Henry James BUSINESS is booming for a brother and sister team from Maghull who set up an online ‘pimp your drinks’ enterprise two years ago and have now recorded their 20,000th sale.

Danielle Makinson, 27, and Liam Bromfield, 24, launched Unicorn Shimmer Co in 2017 to offer products adding colour and sparkle to drinks for bars and restaurants or people having parties at home.

Danielle got the idea after when she wanted to do something different for her birthday party but couldn’t find anything she liked.

The company, originally based in Danielle’s home in Maghull, now has its own offices in Bootle.

Danielle, who now lives in Ormskirk, said: “I looked online and there was just one ‘pimp your drinks’ product offering one colour, which was not my favourite colour pink.

“I also wasn’t a fan of their raspberry flavouring, so I researched the ingredients and came up with my own unflavoured product!

“I did a lot of research and found a manufacturer who could make my vision come true, and in time, I decided to launch it as a business!

“I launched our Shimmer Powders in five colours to start with and we now have 17 colours to choose from.”

She has since expanded the range to include syrups, garnishes, sweets and other alcohol gift sets.

Danielle and Liam started up the company just using their knowledge from studying Business Studies at Deyes High School.

Danielle borrowed £50 from her mum to buy the first bottles as at the time she was working as a waitress to make ends meet.

Liam helped in evenings after work as did her

dad, Steven, and husband, Ian, when they started to expand.

Danielle added: “I created all the content, photos and videos used to advertise on social media and created my own website.

“Soon these where spotted by huge brands who wanted to share our videos on their pages and social media. Since then we’ve been featured by brands such as LadBible, Boohoo, Channel 4 Sunday Brunch, OK Magazine, Daily Mirror and many more!

“My brother joined myself and my dad to help with the running of the business full time and we also have the help from Kaia, Mia and Nell from Deyes High Sixth form.

“We have just celebrated our second birthday and with that also celebrated over 20,000 orders since the day we launched!”

Cutting down trees is taking away Road has been closed but is still the homes of hundreds of birds not being maintained properly Just a note to say how glad I am the issue about the trees and bushes being cut down in Mersey Park in Maghull has come to light in the Champion.

Although the article doesn’t go far enough as the trees and bushes are being removed from a lot of the parks in Maghull.

I have heard the work was being done as the council couldn’t afford to maintain the bushes any more.

I find this a hilarious notion as I have only ever seen two groups of bushes within Mersey Park being cut in the last couple of years.

They maintain the grass regularly but even the grass on the pathway only gets cut out once in a blue moon.

It would be interesting to see the cost spent on

New houses are not being built to save the planet Re: Letter from AL of Crosby entitled ‘We can all do our bit to save the planet - and save money.’

I totally agree with his comments.

Unfortunately, if you look around at all the new houses that have been built, none are fitted with solar panels as standard.

They are not fitted with room sensor lighting.

They are not fitted with rainwater catchment and storage.

They are not fitted with wind generated equipment.

Most houses are built with car parking for two cars now.

It seems that all governments have not had the will to tackle our climate problem.

The house building federation/government must do more.

We here in the Melling, Maghull, Aintree, and Lydiate areas are seeing a massive increase in house building.

History tells us that to do nothing is not an option.

Proactive is far better than reactive.

Malcolm Swann, By email

maintaining the bushes in every park over the last few years versus the cost of the many days worth of work (that is still unfinished) being done.

I just find the whole situation disgusting when there are constant news stories about the struggle of small birds and animals to survive.

The council takes away the homes and safe havens of hundreds, if not thousands, of animals at a time of year they need it most.

It will be a sad time not see all the bids dancing in the dawn, the hedgehogs hiding in the bushes and the bats zipping round in what was a safe haven for them all.

Re: Recent lane closures on the A5036 Dunningsbridge Road and Church Road for grass cutting maintenance and removal of litter.

Over the last few weeks anybody living in and around the Litherland area will have been aware of lane closures by Highways England for grass cutting and maintenance.

Having lived in Litherland all my life, who uses Church Road almost every day I’ve noticed the gradual build-up of debris between the kerb and the sound deadening barrier.

It’s particularly bad on the bridge over the canal.

So much so that grass and weeds have got to be six inches thick in places.

I thought the workers must be going to shovel away the build up of soil and weeds that hasn’t

Audience spoiled night at the ‘Phil’

PF, Litherland

Mystery ‘explosion’ was from scrapyard The explosions or loud bangs that people heard recently in Bootle were caused by the crusher at a scrap yard.

When crushed scrap metal, ie aluminium barrels, are compressed they explode.

I live virtually overlooking the scrap yard on the ninth floor of a tower block and whenever there’s a loud bang, you look out the window and there is smoke coming from the scrapyard.

Name supplied, Bootle

I’m available to clean up Bootle!

I’m Dario from Italy, now living in Bootle.

I agree with the letter from last week, in that Bootle is somewhat ‘dirty ’ and not much cared for and in my opinion it is the case with the whole of Liverpool.

And that's a pity since I always loved this city!

Today I even saw a supermarket trolley in the small river.

I would be available in helping cleaning streets, or cutting trees and alike.

Re: The recent ‘Hacked off theatre-goer’s’ letter on your letters page.

I too have had an experience I would not want to repeat with an audience in perpetual motion at the Philharmonic Hall a while back.

It was at a George Benson concert and folk were up and down all the time going for drinks, toilet breaks etc. etc.

It really spoiled things, especially when you think of how much concert tickets are these days.

The bar being open throughout the concert seemed to be the cause of the problems.

I'll be very wary of booking tickets at the ‘Phil’ again after that sadly unforgettable experience.

been touched for years at long last now they have gone to the trouble of shutting a lane down.

I couldn’t believe what happened next.

They used a strimmer to cut the weeds down and left soil in which they were growing.

To anyone not from the area seeing all that build-up along the kerb side it sends out the wrong messages.

The people who live in the area deserve better.

It’s no wonder people are wary of Highways England being the contractor for the proposed new bypass when they can’t even maintain the existing road.

Re: Your article ‘Peel Ports gets Brexit Funding.’

How wonderful for Peel Ports to receive a cash grant, to help them with Brexit problems, from the Government, i.e .the taxpayer.

I am sure such a large profitable company like them is not in need of any such help.

It is my opinion that the money would be better spent on sorting out the traffic route to their docks in Seaforth.

No thought for the people of the area went into the planning of this venture, surely the council and Highways England should have been more involved with planning permission.

A sizeable contribution from Peel Ports should be imposed to help with the cost of a tunnel to solve the problem they have caused.

Clerk of the course at Aintree to step down ‘He has played a major role in the rising success of the Grand National over the last 24 years’

By Champion Reporter AINTREE Racecourse will have a new clerk of the course next year as Andrew Tulloch is to step down from the role in January 2020 after 24 years.

Racecourse bosses say Mr Tulloch played a major role in the rising success of the Grand National and has been a pivotal figure in promoting the safety and welfare of horses across the racing industry.

He was fundamental to the £1.5 million of changes to the Grand National course, fences and welfare facilities which have resulted in continual improvements to horse welfare.

Mr Tulloch co-ordinated the major redevelopment of Aintree with the construction of the new parade ring, Weighing Room and Media Centre, and the Earl of Derby and Lord Sefton Stands that were completed in 2007.

Man fined for keeping CS cannister in bedroom A MAN from Maghull has been fined £700 for having a CS gas canister in his bedroom, which his solicitor said was given to him 14 years ago after he was the victim of an armed robbery at his father ’s pub.

As Craig Thompson, 31, of Trent Avenue, appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on October 9, it was heard that police had cause to search his address on July 19.

Lionel Cope, prosecuting, said that officers located a CS gas canister in his bedroom and also a quantity of cocaine.

Solicitor Ged Nolan said that Thompson, a site manager with no previous convictions, was a teenager when his father’s pub was raided by masked men who robbed him and his family at knifepoint.

Thompson was injured during the incident, he said, and troubled by the ordeal he was subsequently given the CS gas by a family member.

Providing the court with references which spoke of how the offences were out of character for his client, Mr Nolan said the CS gas was given to Thompson in 2005 and because it has to be used within four years of manufacture it was now useless and would be best described as an antique.

However, Mr Nolan added: “I do not seek to minimise his involvement. He appears before you full of contrition and genuine remorse.”

Thomson pleaded guilty to possession of a weapon designed for the discharge of a noxious liquid, and also to possession of cocaine.

The magistrates fined him £700 for possession for the weapon, along with £155 in costs. They made no separate penalty for possession of drugs.

Council approves learning centre AN empty shop unit in Crosby is to be turned into a learning centre after plans were approved

by Sefton Council.

The site at 86 College Road was occupied by studio/salon Rusty Roses before it moved to St John’s Road in Waterloo earlier this year.

The centre will be run by Katie Morrison who will run tutoring in maths, English and science.

The business, which has been run from Waterloo United Free Church since 2017, would be open from 4-6pm on weekdays.

Drug user stopped in taxi A MAN from Litherland was caught in possession of drugs after police stopped a taxi he was riding in Bootle.

Liam Jones, 25, of Moss Lane, pleaded guilty to possession of class B drugs at Sefton Magistrates Court on October 9.

The court heard that Jones had four previous convictions, the last being for possession of drugs with intent to supply from February 2017 for which he was given a 12-monthprison sentence suspended for two years.

His solicitor Rebecca Boswell said that it was a straight forward case.

She said: “He has been a very heavy user of cannabis for some time, but is working to reduce that.”

The magistrates fined him £40 and ordered that he pay £117 in costs and victim surcharge.

They also ordered the forfeiture and destruction of the drugs.

Artists ‘amazed’ at variety of species hidden in sand dunes

By Danielle Thompson

PARTICIPANTS who took part in a series of creative workshops were ‘amazed’ at the variety of species hidden in the Dunes’ across the Sefton coastline.

The National Lottery-funded Back from the Brink project is one of the most ambitious conservation initiatives ever undertaken.

It aims to save 20 species from extinction and benefit over 200 more through 19 projects that span England, including the Sefton Coast.

During the summer, in the dunes along the Sefton Coast, artists Sian Hughes and Sarah Jane Richards led workshops alongside the Gems in the Dunes team, who shared their knowledge One of the participants during a drawing session in the dunes, and, and experience.

Volunteers needed to help children improve reading skills VOLUNTEERS are needed in Crosby and Bootle to help primary school pupils improve their reading skills.

Once trained and placed in a school by national charity Coram Beanstalk, volunteers will support children aged 5-13 through weekly sessions.

It will involve not only teaching them how to recognise words, but also enjoy sharing books together, chatting about them and developing deeper understanding of the content.

Ginny Lunn of Coram Beanstalk said: “Coram Beanstalk volunteers help encourage, motivate and support children in a way that helps them feel positive about their

I take food fetishes with more than a pinch of salt

THROWING the baby out with the bathwater.

A phrase which I may have rather over-used of late - but it's hard not to with the ever-increasing lists of things you shouldn’t do or eat.

I was converted some time ago into trying to maintain my ‘five a day’ and have discovered that yes, many vegetables I never considered before are more than edible.

So that was good.

Except that salt has become a taboo substance now - which means (if I followed the rules) that I probably couldn't actually taste many of my veg.

Now I can understand that too much salt is a 'bad thing' - but returning to sayings, whatever happened to someone being 'the salt of the earth' - meaning they were very, very good.

My dad suffered painfully from night-time cramps and his GP suggested he should try using salt tablets.

I was going to say that most meats too (including chicken) need a modicum of salt should you wish to bring out the flavour.

Except that if I am to save the polar bears I am now told that eating meat will bring ruin and a gnashing of teeth upon me.

Actually I stopped eating polar bear steaks some while ago, but I confess that the occasional sirloin, lightly seasoned, does brighten up otherwise dull days.

And it occurred to me that if we all gave up eatingChampion meat (which, incidentally our bodies were ead your online every week! designed to consume for good health), then www.champnews.com would cows (including such impressive beasts as Highland cattle) become endangered species whose rights protesters would then block our cities' streets in order to protect?

It's just all too daft for a simple soul such as I. Whatever happened to the idea of ‘moderation?’

Tolerance (which is aon key word for 16 many a stue this week’s letters page dent) has in fact already more or less disappeared from our seats of learning.

Freedom of speech - yeah, right nn man - just so long as we don't disapprove of what you're saying.

Just let a lecturer or don express views contrary to those of the ‘student body’ then wham! they are banned, sacked and if from foreign shores, sent back to where they came from.

Interestingly, the only ‘fetish’ that I observe is normally drinking goat’s milk (rather than that of cows) simply because I read somewhere that it was more easily digestible.

People ask me if its taste is stronger' than ordinary milk - and frankly I cannot taste any real difference at all.

It does cost a little more, but for the amount I consume I don't think this really is a consideration.

But what surprises me (in these health-conscious days) is that in one nationally known supermarket at least, the goat’s milk, which used to share shelf space with ‘ordinary ’' and even speciality flavoured milks, has now been moved to the 'ersatz' milk section (soya etc).

Now that does seem odd to me.’

‘Real’ milk, either from cows, goats or any other animal, is milk after all.

Soya milk, or any other manufactured substitute for the lactose intolerant, is not. I confess to feeling a little put out at being treated as though I was drinking something odd.

Hey up! I feel violated, I know my rights, this supermarket move is unacceptable!

reading and sets them up for success.

“Our reading helpers work with children who, for a variety of reasons, don’t feel confident around books and would benefit from weekly sessions outside of the classroom with someone who can help ‘open the door’ to reading.

“Our vision is to ensure that all children have the opportunity to become confident and able readers and we know that the first step to achieving this is through encouraging a love of books at an early age.”

By our Court Reporter A DECISION by Sefton Council to refuse a taxi licence to a man with a criminal conviction for affray has been upheld by magistrates.

Imran Asaf, 38, from Oldham, was refused his licence by Sefton Council in July of this year because he had a conviction from December 2016 for affray for which he was given a nine month prison sentence suspended for 12 months. He also had convictions for theft and computer misuse from 2006.

Sefton Council has said that since the Deregulation Act 2015 came into force, it has seen an increase in the number of applications for private hire vehicles from outside Sefton.

Previously, the law required drivers to return to the area in which they were licensed between jobs but now drivers with a private-hire licence from a local authority can use it to operate anywhere in England and Wales.

Fiona Townsend, prosecuting, said that it is council policy not to hand out licences to those with convictions for affray until at least three to five years after the end of their sentence, meaning that Asaf should not normally be considered until

December 2020 at the earliest.

“The council has to be satisfied that the applicant is a fit and proper person and the overriding priority of the licensing authority is the protection of the travelling public,” Mrs Townsend said.

She added: “It is expected of private hire drivers to show restraint when dealing with unruly or drunk members of the public at all times.”

Representing himself, Asaf told the court that he thought Sefton Council had been unfair.

Saying that he was already working for Metro Taxis in Stockport after gaining a private hire licence from Wolverhampton Council following a one-to-one interview, he provided a reference from Metro Taxis supporting his appeal.

He also said that the affray offence was committed in 2014 and if he had been sentenced in that year Sefton Council’s disqualification period would have been spent.

He said he wanted a licence from Sefton Council so that he could work for Uber, which is not registered with every council.

Magistrates refused the appeal, however. Chairman Bruce McGrath said: “Notwithstanding that Wolverhampton Council have given you a licence, if Sefton Council guidelines say that you must wait three to five years from the end of the sentence that would take you December 2020. We have sympathy with your situation but we can see nothing that would make you an exception to that.”

During the hearing Mrs Townsend said Sefton Council was apparently known for being one of the cheapest and fastest authorities which issue licences.

Merseyrail set for yet more strikes RMT union to hold 24-hour walkouts each Saturday in November and December as part of dispute over guards Report by Henry James RMT union members at Merseyrail have announced that they are to go on strike on every Saturday in November and December, which would cause huge disruption in the period leading up to Christmas.

The nine 24-hour walkouts are over the long-running dispute over train guards.

The strikes will be held on November 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30 and December 7, 14, 21 and 28. Overtime for RMT members has also been banned from November 3.

RMT bosses say a deal has been blocked by the local authority due to costs but Merseyrail chiefs say they are disappointed, as “there is now a guarantee of a guard on every new train with a safety critical role and we were so close to an agreement to end this dispute.”

The disagreement is about the new driver-only operated Merseyrail trains fleet, which will be launched in 2021. On these trains drivers close the doors instead of guards.

RMT general secretary Mick Cash has said he is

The RMT union has called strike action on Merseyrail services

“greatly frustrated” that members have been “forced” to take strike action again on Merseyrail when an agreement was “so close.”

A Merseyrail spokesperson said: “We are extremely disappointed that the recent exploratory technical workshops between the RMT, ourselves and Merseytravel have resulted in the announcement of further strike action.

“It is especially disappointing given that there is now a guarantee of a guard on every new train with a safety critical role and that we were so close to an agreement to end this dispute.

“Our priority now is to run the best possible service on the strike days and communicate the arrangements with our passengers as soon as possible.”

Wear it pink is back!

This October, Breast Cancer Now is encouraging everyone to wear it pink and help make life-saving breast cancer research and life-changing support happen.

ADVERTISING FEATURE

Friday 18th October 2019

Breast Cancer Now’s wear it pink day takes place on Friday 18 October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Since launching in 2002, wear it pink has raised over £33million for breast cancer research.

Anyone can take part in wear it pink. You could hold a cake sale, organise a raffle or even arrange a pink fancy dress day at your school or workplace. No matter how you choose to wear it pink, all the money raised will help to fund vital breast cancer research and support.

Becca from Crawley is supporting wear it pink, after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017. Becca said: “Since I was diagnosed, I’ve become aware of so many other families that have been affected by this devastating disease. Mums, daughters, sisters, aunties and more.

I’ve already lost two friends to breast

In 2018 over 19,000 people registered to take part in wear in pink, raising an incredible £1.6m.

The charity hopes to beat this total in 2019.

Lottie Barnden, Head of Mass Participation at Breast Cancer Care and Breast Cancer Now, said: “Every year in the UK, around 55,000 women and around 350 men are given the devastating news that they have breast cancer. Despite great strides in research, around 11,500 women and 80 men still die from breast cancer every year – that’s

“We currently fund around a third of all breast cancer research happening in the UK, and last year we responded to nearly 7 million breast cancer support requests. Without the generosity of wear it pink supporters we simply cannot continue to fund this crucial research and support, for all those affected by breast cancer now, and in the future.

“That is why we are urging everyone across the UK to get involved in wear it pink on Friday 18 October to help us make life-saving breast cancer research and life-changing support happen!”

cancer and two more are living with a secondary, incurable diagnosis.

“I had a very aggressive form of breast cancer, so without scientific research and advances in breast cancer, my prognosis could have been very different. I have been supported all the way through my journey, and now I feel the need to channel my energy into something positive. That’s why I’ll be wearing it pink this October, to help raise funds for breast cancer research and support.”

Duo show their ability to ‘build a rapport with their audience’

Les Mis is the ‘blockbuster show that keeps on giving’ Review by Malcolm Hindle

Review by Henry James CLASSICAL singers Aled Jones and Russell Watson showed terrific ability to build a rapport with their audience during their concert at the Liverpool Philharmonic on Saturday, October 12.

Natasha Hemmings was the warmup for the evening and sang a selection of songs, such as Queen’s Who Wants To Live Forever.

Then Jones and Watson came to the stage and had just the right balance of chat with the audience and performance.

The first half included Cole Porter’s Night And Day, which can be found on their new album, which is being released next month.

Jones and Watson broke up the songs to talk and welcomed Ricky Tomlinson, who was in the audience and called him ‘Liverpool royalty.’

The second half of the evening was a belter and included the uplifting Funiculi, Funicula.

The audience were asked also to take part in the popular Volare, with

Les Misérables Liverpool Empire Theatre Aled Jones and Russell Watson

one half of the audience singing one section of the chorus and the other half singing the other.

The majority of the songs were sung by both performers, except Walking In The Air, which was performed in a comic way by Jones and Yesterday, which was sung by Watson.

You could tell Jones was reticent to sing Walking In The Air, but he did reveal that he looks forward to the royalty cheque he receives every year from the recording.

Watson rendition of the Beatles classic was, although brief, very popular with the audience.

The evening finished on a high with You Raise Me Up and the pair came back to perform The Impossible Dream for the encore.

This may have been their first tour together, but the combination works.

9/10

Opera Viva to perform The Elixir of Love OPERA Viva has announced their production for 2020 will be Donizetti’s popular comedy, The Elixir of Love.

IT’S the blockbuster stage show that just keeps on giving.

Les Misérables has been enthralling audiences for more than 35 years and shows no sign of losing its huge appeal continuing to delight and attract thousands.

Currently on a nationwide tour, ‘the world’s favourite musical’ has arrived at the Empire Theatre Liverpool playing to yet more packed houses.

To date it’s been seen by more than 120 million people worldwide in 51 countries and in 22 languages.

Based on the classic novel, Les Misérables, by Victor Hugo, and the Broadway stage show of the same name, Les Misérables is the story of Jean Valjean, Prisoner 24601 who breaks parole, and his tormentor-in-chief - police inspector, Javert, who relentlessly and obsessively hunts him down.

Set against a backdrop of the French

Revolution, Javert vows to put Valjean back behind bars – all played out, of course, to a string of songs that make Les Mis more than just a musical – it is in fact a stunning theatrical experience that surely has no equal.

If this show doesn’t give you goosebumps… nothing will!

Cameron Mackintosh’s casting of the tour sees Killian Donnelly as ‘Jean Valjean’ - a feat he pulls off with great aplomb especially bearing in mind the considerable footsteps he has to follow in the role, and Nic Greenshields who is a quite magnificent and hugely imposing ‘Javert’ - his rendition of ‘Stars’ a standout moment.

Anyone familiar with Les Mis will know that two of the show’s favourite characters are unscrupulous and unsavoury innkeepers ‘Thénardier and Madame Thénardier’ who in this production are played wonderfully by Martin Ball and Sophie-Louise Dann - their ‘Master of the House’ routine once again a stand-out delight for the soldout Empire audience.

Harry Apps as ‘Marius’, Tegan Bannister as ‘Eponine’, and Bronwen Hanson as ‘Cosette’ all give impressive performances while special mention must go to Will Richardson as ‘Enjolras’.

Fantine, played by Katie Hall gives

A scene from Les Misérables

another of the show’s most memorable moments with a stunning version of ‘I Dreamed a Dream’.

Boublil and Schönberg’s magnificent score of “Les Misérables” also includes the songs, ‘On My Own’, ‘Bring Him Home’, ‘Do You Hear the People Sing?’, ‘One Day More’, ‘Empty Chairs at Empty Tables’ … is it really any wonder Les Mis is so revered with a hit list like that.

There are now only a strictly limited number of tickets available for the Liverpool Empire run of Les Mis. Check daily at the box office for remaining seats.

Les Misérables plays at the Empire until Saturday, October 26, 2019.

10/10 – Could it be anything else.

Play was ‘an achy, breaky night’ Review by Ron Ellis Achy Breaky Bride Epstein Theatre, Liverpool RADIO City DJ, Leanne Campbell, starred as Jolene who, along with her brother, a boy named Sue (Philip Olivier, who played Tinhead in Brookside), runs Dolly’s Dream Dresses, a wedding boutique in Liverpool, where all the action takes place. And a brilliant set it was; a shining pink and silver emporium fully kitted out complete with a mannequin dressed as a bride.

Olivia Sloyan played Faye who works alongside them in the boutique and Adam Curtis was Hank.

David Heath (X Factor), Jenny Sian O’Hara and Emma Vaudrey all played multiple roles but none as many as Liverpool legend, Lindzi

Germain, moonlighting from the Royal Court, who appeared as five different characters during the evening.

As a big fan of country music, I was looking forward to this show, advertised as a jukebox musical of country hits, but I’m afraid the music took second place to the comedy which was fast and furious.

Halfway through the opening song, 9 to 5, the music stopped dead, a girl appeared from the wings, shouted “f…ing ‘ell’, the audience immediately clapped and cheered and that set the scene for the rest of the evening.

The jokes were coarse, the swearing incessant and the sexual connotations rife.

All good Liverpool humour you might say but, in this case, too much and too far, especially as there were a lot fewer songs than I expected and some of those were cut short

halfway.

Written by Emma Culshaw and David Paul, the choreographer was Sarah Walker, M.D. was Callum Clarke and

the show was directed by Sylvie Gatrill Star Rating 4 out of 10. An achy, breaky night.

Star cast appearing in Ayckbourn comedy TEN Times Table, written by multi-awardwinning writer Alan Ayckbourn, will embark on a nationwide tour and will be at the Southport Theatre from October 28 – 31.

Ten Times Table is the inaugural production of The Classic Comedy Theatre Company, produced by Bill Kenwright and his team behind The Agatha Christie, The Classic Thriller and The Classic Screen To Stage theatre companies.

Between them, these companies have enjoyed more than 15 years of theatrical success across the UK. The star cast is led by TV and stage actor Robert Daws, who is most loved for his role

as Dr. Gordon Ormerod in The Royal as well as his time in other hit shows such as Poldark, Outside Edge and Roger Roger.

Joining him is Deborah Grant, best known for playing Wendy in Not Going Out and Deborah Bergerac in Bergerac.

Emmerdale and Holby City star Gemma Oaten is joined by Robert Duncan of Drop The Dead Donkey fame and theatre veteran Mark Curry, well known for his appearances in Hollyoaks and as Kevin in Last Of The Summer Wine.

Craig Gazey, famous for his portrayal of Graeme Proctor in Coronation Street completes the cast, alongside Elizabeth Power known for playing Christine Hewitt in

Ten Times Table is coming to the Southport Theatre

EastEnders.

The production will be directed by Robin Herford known for his work on the West End hit The Woman In Black.

MOTORS

The time that I caused a rush hour traffic jam by breaking down is still my most stressful bit of motoring Alfa Romeo is missing a trick by no longer selling the Spider

THERE’S a dusty corner in the deep vaults of the Simister anecdotal archives that no longer needs to be quietly reshuffled.

The time that I caused a rush-hour traffic jam by conking out in a city centre bus stop – in a bright red E-type, naturally – is still firmly in the top spot as the most stressful bit of motoring I’ve ever done.

The moment I called on a Ford Cortina’s brakes on a particularly steep hill somewhere near Sheffield, only to find it didn’t really have any, comes a close second, but I was ready to demote that too the other day. Not only was I about to make my debut as a wedding car driver, but the blushing bride in question was none other than my younger sister.

I was delighted to be entrusted with such an important task, of course, but I’m sure you’ll forgive me for having visions of gliding helplessly onto the hard shoulder and having no choice but to wait for a van with orange flashing lights to show up, or having to tackle a puncture with an infuriated-looking bride glancing at her watch, wondering how late really is classed as fashionable.

Certainly, when I got hitched three years ago I made sure it was someone else’s Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow doing the all-important duties, just to avoid the potential headaches.

But I actually enjoyed the drive far more than I had any right to, and that’s partly because the wedding wheels in question were just about the last thing I’d been expecting – an Alfa Romeo Spider.

While that meant the big journey was limited to just two people, it meant the bride and I could focus on the really important things on the way to her big day.

Like how well the Spider suits being offered in black with tan leather – you’d expect red to be the colour of choice for a small, Italian sports car, but with Britain’s Alfisti it was definitely black that proved the most popular colour. I’m sure my about-to-be-wed passenger appreciated too how the centre console was canted towards the driver to give

it a much sportier feel, and how all the words on the dials had been left in Italian – olio, benzina, and so on – just to make the drive to the wedding venue feel just that little bit more exciting.

She definitely would have appreciated the two-litre Twin Spark engine too, although I suspect the 3.2-litre V6 might have been a bit handier for getting there on time.

But as my younger sister and her now husband embark on what I’m sure will be years of happily married life together, there is one question I’m sure they’ll be pondering – why doesn’t Alfa have a Spider in

its range today? The Italians are really missing a trick, particularly as it’d be easy to base it on the Fiat 124 Spider.

I’m happy to confirm that the Spider made it on time, the wedding went without a hitch, and Alfa’s finest chalked up yet another fan.

Definitely preferable to a Cortina with knackered brakes, anyway…

Doran blasts Bucks’ ‘embarrassing’ display after FA Vase defeat Rylands 3 Bootle 0 BOOTLE manager Joe Doran branded his side's performance as “embarrassing” after their six game-winning run came to an abrupt end in this FA Case tie, writes Connor O’Neill.

After claiming a 3-2 win over their hosts the previous weekend, fast-forward seven days and the Bucks were second best, with their FA Vase and Wembley dreams effectively over by half-time.

After Jack McGovern denied both Kane Drummound and Freddie Potter, the hosts opened the scoring six minutes before the interval.

Lee Hughes was caught in possession by Andy Scarisbrick inside his own half before the Rylands number six released Potter down the right.

The former Runcorn Linnets man then drove a low cross across the face of the goal which was turned home by George Lomax.

Hughes went close to avenging for his earlier mistake,

but his effort from range was superbly pushed away by Michael Emery.

And on the stroke of halftime, Doran's side were hit with the ultimate suckerpunch when Dave McNabb's side doubled their lead.

Once again the Bucks were caught in possession, with Scarisbrick’s pass carving open the Bootle back line.

Drummound coolly collected the pass and rounded the onrushing McGovern before finishing into the unguarded net.

Bootle huffed and puffed in the second half but failed to properly test home keeper Emery.

And after going close on numerous occasions, the Blues sealed their passage into the second round when substitute Adam Jones raced clear before emphatically finishing past McGovern with four minutes of normal time remaining.

Bootle were due to host Barnoldswick Town on Tuesday night and are at thome to Eccleshall in the Macron League Cup first round tie.

Depleted Mariners left to rue missed chances Marske United 4 Marine 1 A MARINE team hit by injuries and suspensions were beaten at Marske on Saturday, writes Ralph Rands.

Alan Morgan, managing the team in Neil Young’s absence, was without the suspended trio of Niall Cummins, Daniel Hawkins and Kenny Strickland, while James Ellison and Brett Mbalanda were injured Recent loan signing Lloyd MarshHughes made his first start up front, and the returning James Joyce replaced James Ellison at left-back.

After a sixth minute volley for the home side was tipped over by Shamal George, Marine began to assert themselves and Steve Irwi’'s shot from just inside the area was blocked by a last-ditch challenge, before Craig Lindfield’s follow-up was met with an equally strong challenge.

Marine suffered a blow on the half-hour mark as Marsh-Hughes sustained an ankle injury, and had to be replaced by substitute Francois Antoine, with Lindfield assuming the central striking role.

After all their dominance, the Mariners conceded twice in a couple of minutes On 38 minutes Waters was played goalside of Anthony Miley and despite George's excellent block the ball fell kindly for striker Johnson to head home.

Johnson turned provider soon afterwards, beating Scott Lycett to drive into

the box before squaring for Round to apply the final touch at the near post.

At half-time Ethan Devine was brought on to replace Lycett with namesake James dropping into central defence.

The Mariners spurned a scoring opportunity, as James Barrigan somehow failing to apply the finishing touch to Lindfield’s tantalising cross from three yards out.

Lewis Maloney's venomous half-volley from 25 yards then brought a good save from George, the on-loan Liverpool keeper flying across goal to push the ball past the angle of post and crossbar.

Marine finally got some reward for their play in the 71st minute, a through-ball releasing Ethan Devine who squared for the onrushing Barrigan to crash the ball

home from just a couple of yards.

But the decisive goal came at the other end on 82 minutes as Round grabbed his second of the afternoon with a fine strike, cutting in from the right to beat George at his near post via the underside of the bar.

The game was up for Marine three minutes later as a free-kick from the left was headed on and fell kindly for Round to steer home at the far post to complete his hat-trick with Marske maintaining their unbeaten start to the season.

For all of their attacking threat the Mariners suffered a defeat for which the final scoreline for those watching the game, seemed scarcely believable.

Marine won’t have to wait long to put things right when they host the same opposition on Saturday.

Rampant Reds put eight past Darwen

Maghull 1 Redgate Rovers 3

AFC Liverpool 8 Darwen 0

A BUMPER crowd of around 200 turned out to watch Maghull on what was Non-League Day on Saturday but the home fans would have been disappointed with the result.

The team went in at half-time 1-1 with Steve Willimas the scorer for Maghull but the visitors took the lead midway in the second half before the sealing the win with a late goal.

Maghull Reserves beat Garswood United Reserves 4-2 in the LCFA Junior Cup.

AFC Liverpool took full advantage of their first home fixture to fall on Non League Day with a superb team performance against Darwen.

The Reds opened the scoring in the 16th minute as Kyle Schorah got in behind the defence and found Rhys Hardacre who finished with a simple tap-in.

Less than five minutes later, Chris

Anderson's team doubled their lead as Lee McConchie netted a diving header from a corner.

The third goal came in the 27th minute, as Callum Schorah repeated what his brother had done earlier, and allowed a near carbon-copy finish from Hardacre.

Hardacre claimed his hat-trick on 56 minutes. An incisive ball saw the forward break through on goal, waiting for Darwen keeper Conner Stone to commit before slotting the

ball home.

Callum Schorah capped a superb performance, receiving the ball in the 18 yard box then sidestepping his marker, creating the space for a blistering shot that left the keeper no chance.

Kyle Schorah added to the tally when a rebound off a blocked shot fell to him and he snaked inbetween two players and cleverly flicked the ball into the net with the outside of his boot.

The chances kept coming for the Reds, and on 82 minutes, Jay McGrane received Cockerline's excellent through ball, took a touch, and rifled home for the Reds seventh. Then Cockerline himself wrapped up the scoring in the 88th minute with a curling shot from the edge of the area.

This record home win certainly delivered entertainment for the crowd and put the Reds to sixth in the Division One North table.

Burnage continued to press hard to get a draw, but in forcing the play conceded a penalty for crossing. Alex Ward took advantage for the final score of the game to settle nerves in the large home crowd and deny Burnage a losing bonus point.

Relieved coach Sean Fletcher said: “We have learned how to close down a game, but we were battered in their 20 minute spell.

“But there is great communication between forwards and backs which gives us the ability to control games.”

Next week, Firwood Waterloo travel to Northwich for an intriguing contest as both teams have an identical record of 18 points having won four and lost two games collecting two try bonus points.
