DRUNKEN GRAFFITI STUNT COULD MEAN TEN YEARS IN A THAILAND PRISON

INSIDE THIS WEEK...

Backpacker arrested after he sprayed his name on wall of historic landmark Report by Tom Martin A MAN from Crosby faces being sent to prison in Thailand after being accused of spray painting his name onto the wall of an 800 year-old landmark while on a backpacking holiday in the country.

Lee Furlong, 23, is alleged to have used a can of black spray paint to write ‘Scouser Lee’ on a wall of the historic Tha Phae Gate, in the city Chiang Mai. The incident happened at around 4am on Thursday, October 18 and CCTV from a nearby cafe shows four people approach the wall before two of the group use the spray paint to add graffiti to the wall.

The gate is part of a historic fortress wall that forms a square around Chiang Mai's inner city, and parts of the building date back to the 13th century.

According to reports, Mr Furlong spelt ‘Scouse’ incorrectly, first writing ‘Scousse Lee’ before going back over the letters and changing it to ‘Scouser Lee.’ Thai police say Mr Fur- Lee Furlong, right, and Canadian woman Brittney Schneider at the wall where the graffiti ‘Scouser Lee’ had been sprayed, inset. long would be charged with “vandalising an archaeological site” which carries arrested and charged with vandalism for allegedly and used it before his companion.

Report by Tom Martin A MAN from Waterloo fears his wife, who has dementia, could “suffer tremendously� after she lost her regular carers.

Adult social care provider New Directions, based in Bootle, has been forced to transfer “a small number of service users� to another care provider due to “staffing issues.�

It has left a Waterloo resident deeply concerned, as he says his 71-year-old wife needs the same carers because it comforts her to see familiar faces.

He said: “This is not good for my wife at all and I'm very worried about it. “It could set her back health wise and she could end up suffering tremendously. “She needs the same carers because if someone else turns up she gets uncomfortable. “Usually she has two people come to the house, but if there's one person missing which can happen sometimes, at least the

He said the former provider was called Care Connect, and when New Directions took over in February the same staff members were transferred over to care for his wife.

New Directions acting head of operations, Andrea Woods, said: “Because of staffing issues across our domiciliary care service a small number of service users have been transferred to other Sefton Council appointed providers. “All seven people involved have been contacted by New Directions, and local authority social workers have supported the process. “The Care Quality Commission has also been notified of the situation. “We very much regret any inconvenience this move may cause, but believe that in the light of the current situation this is the best solution in terms of providing continuity of care to the people involved.�

Bar owner thinks Village could become ‘Lark Lane of the north of the city’ Crosby beach.

Report by Tom Martin A BAR owner hopes the nightlife of Crosby Village will be given a boost after his cocktail bar opened last weekend.

Jack Doran, who is co-owner at Frankie's, believes the high street “has the potential to become the Lark Lane of the north of the city” and hopes locals will be persuaded to stay closer to home for a night out instead of venturing into Liverpool.

He said: “The support we’ve had from Crosby has gone beyond our expectations.

“I'm from around here and always used to go out in Crosby and I remember when every bar was busy, but it's not like that now.

“Crosby has some amazing bars but it's quite spread out.

Brave teenagers swam out to sea in the dark to save stranded woman Report by Tom Martin FOUR teenage boys helped save the life of a woman who was stranded in the sea off Crosby beach.

They heard shouts for help coming from the water near the former coastguard station at Burbo Bank on Saturday, October 20 at around 8.30pm and immediately called 999.

HM Coastguard Operations Centre, in Holyhead, were informed and sent out a team of rescuers, but the boys saw the woman was in immediate danger feared she may drown before a rescue team could reach her.

So two of the youngsters then swam out in the darkness following her cries and managed to locate her around 30metres out and were then able to help bring her back to the shore.

HM Coastguard Crosby hailed the boys for their bravery, but urged other have-a-goheroes to not put their own lives at risk and wait for emergency services to arrive.

A spokesperson for the coastguard said: “Four teenage boys had heard the shouts for help but with it being dark they could not see the person in the water.

“The boys dialled 999 and alerted the HM Coastguard Operations Centre in Holyhead,

Waterloo Food and Drink Festival to be held at Burbo Bank this weekend THE rearranged Crosby and Waterloo Food and Drink Festival will take place this weekend.

The two-day event will be held on on Saturday, October 27 and Sunday, October 28 between 11am-9pm at Old

Christ Church.

The Champion reported how the event, which was originally supposed to be held outdoors at Burbo Bank, had to be cancelled at the last minute due to bad weather.

Organisers NS Events said: “After our disappointment at the cancellation of the last festival due to the severe weather, the first Crosby and Waterloo Food and Drink festival is finally here.

“We are excited to bring

together over 30 independent local businesses, including Crosby Coffee, Neptune Brewery, So salsa, Roast Coffee and Kitchen and many more.

Come and enjoy all the amazing offerings from your local businesses.”

who immediately tasked the relevant teams to the scene.

“Whilst the boys were waiting for the emergency services to arrive they were faced with the reality that if nothing was done immediately the lady who was in difficulty would not make it out safely.

“With this two of the boys entered the water and waded approximately 30metres until they found the casualty and managed to bring her to safety back at the tide line.

“At this point HM Coastguard Crosby arrived on scene and gave both the casualty and the boys the relevant care needed. The four boys then went on to assist the Coastguard Rescue Team with carrying the stretcher with the casualty on to the waiting ambulance.

“The Coastguard would advise anyone not to put themselves at risk by entering the water and to wait for the emergency services to arrive, however, there is no doubt that the selfless actions of these young men were instrumental in saving this ladies life.

“After the boys were checked over by the ambulance crew they were taken back to the Coastguard Station were a parent came to collect them.

“We would like to thank all of them for their brave actions. If you see or think anyone is in difficulty along the coast, please dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.”

The resident offered to buy two of the guitars and handed over the £30 demanded as a deposit and agreed to take in the items for “flustered” Jackson.

Half an hour later Jackson was seen carrying a television set from Mr Andrew’s flat into his own accommodation.

Police arrived the next day after learning that Jackson was trying to remove panels from the boarded-up flat.

Officers found the TV in Jackson’s flat and two of the guitars were recovered from the other neighbour ’s home.

Jackson, who admitted two burglary offences, has numerous convictions including shoplifting, but none for burglary.

He received nine months imprisonment for perverting the course of justice for hiding the screwdriver used by a woman to kill a 64-year-old man in May 2013 while Jackson watched on.

Mark Phillips, defending, said: “He committed the offences to sell the items for cash to support his substance misuse.

“He thought that - to put it bluntly - there was no real victim in this case. He had not thought of the greater picture..”

Drug gang members jailed for a total of 220 years Report by Henry James AN organised crime group, responsible for drugs trade in Merseyside, across the north of England and into the Isle of Man, which included men from Thornton, Crosby and Netherton, has been sentenced to more than 220 years after being convicted of conspiracy to supply Class A and B drugs.

Following an extensive operation by Merseyside Police 22 men, from the top of the chain right down to the couriers on the ground, have now been jailed for the roles they played in the distribution and supply of Class A (heroin and cocaine) and B (cannabis) drugs. l Ian Spackman, 37, of Rosslyn Avenue, Maghull, was considered to be the head of this organised crime group and operated on a commercial scale.

He was described as ‘a professional, well organised and sophisticated criminal.’

His senior role was reflected “by elements of the affluent lifestyle” he “was enjoying.” He was able to enjoy lengthy holidays over Christmas and New year in both 2015/16 and 2016/17 in Dubai and Thailand for approximately a month.

He also rented an apartment in Malaga and drove a BMW X5 and it was evident he had “the financial wherewithal to enjoy a lifestyle that would be out of the reach of most hardworking members of the public.”

He was sentenced to 17 years four months. l Marc Campbell, 41, of Ince Road, Thornton, was instrumental in the Liverpool side of the business. He was closely associated with Spackman and also communicated with Peter Mulvaney and Tom Collins through various mobile phones. He was sentenced to 14 years. l Peter Mulvaney, 35, of Larchfield Road, Crosby, was heavily involved in the importation of cannabis and set up a fake business as part of the scam. The business unit at Bemrose industrial estate was rented in his name and run as a fake plumbing company. He was the man in charge of the company on the ground and received the first three deliveries of cannabis, with an estimated street value of between £7,895 and £15,790, from his home address. He was arrested at Liverpool Airport on July 24, 2016 after returning from Menorca. Officers recovered 1.5 kilograms of cannabis from his home address. He was sentenced to 19 years. l Paul Doyle, 33, of Hereford Drive, Netherton, was convicted after trial and he

“We have tarot card reading, refreshments, craft stalls, make and take crafts, pumpkin carving – there really is something for everyone.”

The Halloween event will be held between 1-3pm.

was a courier of drugs to Blackpool, as well as a contact in Liverpool for regional customers. He was closely connected to James Gannon throughout the conspiracy and used four mobile phones in just over 12 months prior to his arrest in December 2016 and he was in contact with other gang members. In the five months prior to his arrest he made seven trips to Blackpool, where he had links with Josh Baker and Aaron Sankey.

On December 19 2016 he was arrested in possession of a quarter kilogram of heroin and a quarter of a kilo of adulterant. The heroin recovered had an estimated street value of between £14,340 ad £23,900. He was sentenced to 10 years.

During the investigation on eight separate occasions detectives seized heroin (1.5 kilos in total), cocaine (2.5kg in total) and 53 kilos of cannabis with an estimated total street value of £453,000.

One of the cocaine and heroin seizures was following the stop check of a vehicle driven by Gary Unsworth on Longmoor Lane where officers recovered ¼ kilo cocaine and one kilo of heroin with a combined estimated street value of between £66,000 and £122,000).

At the end of the trial Judge Aubrey commended the detectives for the thorough investigation they carried out.

A COCKAPOO puppy was killed and its owner seriously injured after three out of control bull terriers attacked them in Netherton.

Julie Huyton, 38, was walking one-year-old Bailey through Pinfold Woods, near Northern Perimeter Road, on Saturday, October 20 at around 6pm when she spotted three dogs in the distance running towards them.

The three bull terriers, who were off the lead and being walked by two men aged in their late 20s, went straight for the defenceless Bailey with two of the animals clamping their jaws around his neck.

A distraught Julie tried desperately to get the dogs off her pet and during a five minute ordeal the tip of her finger was ripped apart as she tried to get her hand between Bailey and the bull terrier's teeth.

After the dogs eventually let go, Julie picked Bailey up and ran to safety across the Northern Perimeter Road and stopped at a bus stop to call her boyfriend, Luke Hobbart.

The two men, along with the three bull terriers, had to walk past Julie and Bailey in order to get towards the Sefton Estate, but they did not stop and one of the men even said “sorry love” as they passed.

Julie and Luke rushed Bailey to an emergency PDSA vet in Huyton, but it was too late to save Bailey and Julie had to have plastic surgery treatment to her finger and has been signed off work for the next two weeks.

Luke told the Champion: “We have walked through Pinfold Woods quite a lot and we’ve never experienced any trouble before.

“Bailey was the most placid and gentle animal and was only ever interested in meeting humans instead of other dogs.

“The whole ordeal lasted about five minutes because my girlfriend and one of the lads just couldn't get the bull terriers off Bailey's neck. The other lad just stood there and watched.

“When Julie picked Bailey up I think he was dead.

We still took him to an emergency vet but there was nothing they could do. The two lads went off towards the Sefton Estate and didn’t get into a car so obviously they must live locally.

“One had a grey hoodie on with black tracksuit bottoms, and the other was in all black. They were in their late 20s, average build and both had dark hair. The leads they had were the chain type of leads with leather handles.

“Two of the bull terriers were black with white patches, and the other one was brown. We just want to make other people aware of them because these dogs are very dangerous and we don't want this happening to anyone else.”

Last few slots for Christmas fitting available Staff from the hospice celebrate the news

Hospice gets glowing inspection to mark dramatic turnaround Report by Tom Martin STAFF from St Joseph’s Hospice are celebrating after inspectors gave them a ‘Good’ rating –a little over a year after they were banned from taking on more patients.

The achievement represents a remarkable turn around by the Thornton-based hospice, which has gone up two ‘ratings’ in only a 14 month period.

It was only in August 2017 that the Care Quality Commission (CQC) told the hospice they could no longer take on more patients after it was rated inadequate due to concerns over safety.

Six months later another inspection found they had improved and the CQC allowed them to take on patients, but they were still given a rating of ‘requires improvement.’

A third inspection was held in August and a report was released last week showing how the hospice was given a ‘Good rating’, describing how it had “systematically improved in quality and performance.”

Inspectors also praised the hospice, and its senior management team, for sustaining the improvements seen at its previous inspections and noted that it has “continued to improve how medicines are given and recorded.”

The CQC inspected the hospice using its comprehensive inspection methodology which inspects five

key areas – whether services are safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.

During the unannounced three-day visit inspectors found that staff “cared for their patients with compassion” and “provided emotional support to patients and their relatives to minimise their distress.”

Patients and relatives also confirmed that the “staff treat them well and with kindness” and that “the staff involved patients and those close to them in decisions about their care and treatment”.

Mike Parr, chief executive of St Joseph’s Hospice, said: “I have never been in any doubt that St Joseph’s Hospice is a good hospice and the majority of our patients and families would agree with that.

However, it is wonderful and really important that the CQC has also recognised this.

One year after his murder Sam Cook’s mum wants to use his memory to urge others never to use knives

LUXURY BATHROOMS AT AFFORDABLE PRICES

Report by Tom Martin SAM Cook’s mother has given an emotional plea for people to stop carrying knives on nights out, a year after her son was stabbed to death celebrating his 21st birthday.

It was on October 21 last year when the popular 21-year-old from Crosby was fatally stabbed in the heart at the Empire Bar, in Liverpool.

Carl Madigan was later jailed for 28 years for Sam’s murder.

On the anniversary of Sam’s death, his mum Gillian Radcliffe spoke to the BBC and explained how she doesn't want her son “to become a statistic” and instead wants to use his memory to urge others to stop carrying knives.

She said: “It’s stupid and it’s cowardly. To go out with a knife is not proving to anyone that you are hard.

“It seems to be happening more and more and more and they don't realise, these stupid people, what others are going through.

“It affects so many people. We’ve got to stop other people going through this turmoil.

“Sam is not a statistic. I don't want him to become a statistic because he's not. He's my boy.”

Sam Cook

Sam Cook’s mother, Gillian Radcliffe, speaking to the BBC

Sam’s killer, Carl Madigan, of Adam Close, Garston, was jailed for a minimum of 28 years after a jury at Liverpool Crown Court found him guilty.

The case served to highlight an important issue across the country when it comes to carrying knives and several political figures in Merseyside spoke out about Sam's death.

Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson believes it highlights how more needs to be done to tackle knife crime in the city and it led to Mer-

seyside Police launching a 'No More Knives' campaign focused on education and understanding around the consequences of carrying a knife, as well as delivering talks in schools, youth clubs and groups of young offenders.

Gillian added: “Our lives changed in 45 minutes.

“We were with Sam 45 minutes before on a family meal celebrating his 21st birthday thinking he's got his whole life ahead of him, this is a milestone. Within 45 minutes I was walking into a hospital.”

Judicial Review into Rimrose Valley road decision underway

MISTED WINDOWS? UPVC FAULTS?

Report by Tom Martin RIMROSE Valley campaigners protested outside the High Court in Manchester as a Judicial Review got underway over Highways England’s proposal to build a road though the country park.

A group of locals from Save Rimrose Valley arrived at Manchester Civil Justice Centre yesterday morning (Tuesday, October 23) in the hope a High Court could put a stop to plans to build a road through the heart of Rimrose Valley Country Park.

Sefton Council, who will be represented by Protesters outside the court in Manchester. tion was a farce and its outcome completely ignored. a leading QC, believes Highways England should have listed a tunnel as an option to link traffic That is why we are joining Sefton Council in calling for better solutions to be fully explored. between Switch Island and the Port of Liverpool.

“We want a presence at the Judicial Review hearing As part of the hearing, the council is seeking an order to quash the preferred route decision and another to remind Highways England of the level of opposiorder requiring Highways England to re-consult about tion to its destructive, ill-conceived plans.

“We sincerely hope that the judge can see that we are the tunnel option before any final decision as to the being ignored and is supportive of our cause. preferred route is re-taken.

“We are being short-changed. Our vital green space tunnel for the proposed Port Access route when they undertook a consultation exercise to determine their is being taken away from us and our health damaged for yet another road. Highways England needs to find preferred route option.

“The council will argue that despite having prom- more money to match the levels of expenditure seen in ised to do so, Highways England failed to include the the South, where tunnel options are championed for tunnel option in its consultation or in any event failed their reduced environmental impact and benefits to public health. to include it in a lawful way.

Cafe gets go-ahead Plans approved to build to open later at night petrol station and cafe at A CAFE in Crosby has been granted permission by Sefton Council to open later at night and serve alcohol.

The Champion has reported how some locals objected to a plan by Mustard & Co, on College Road, to stay open until 10.30pm, serve alcohol and play recorded music.

Sefton Council held a Licensing Sub-Committee meeting on Thursday, October 18 when they heard from both the cafe owners and objecting residents.

It was decided to grant permission to Mustard & Co, but only after the owners offered to close at the earlier time of 10pm and agreed that no music will be played after this time.

A report published by the council following the decision states: “The Sub-Committee noted the additional conditions volunteered by the applicant to reduce the hours of operation for the sale of alcohol to 10pm to allow for drinking up time.

“The Sub-Committee noted that the applicant had also, during the meeting, volunteered the condition that there would be no amplified music on the premises, however the Sub-Committee felt that the operating schedule should be amended so that no music be played after 10pm.

“The Sub-Committee has also considered representations received from local residents objecting to the application.

“Whilst the Sub-Committee had sympathy for the local resident’s concerns, it had not heard or received any evidence that these concerns had or would occur and the Sub-Committee could not impose purely aspirational conditions in the absence of any evidence.

“The Sub-Committee had made its decision based on the evidence and the representations made by both parties and the new amended hours of operation and conditions it considered to be reasonable.”

site of closed down pub

PLANS to knock down the former Weld Blundell Arms pub on the Formby bypass to make way for a petrol station and drive-thru cafe have been approved by Sefton Council.

Forecourt services operator EG Group secured planning approval for the site on Scaffold Lane in Ince Blundell at the latest planning committee meeting on Wednesday, October 17, after being advised on the applications by PWA Planning and will create a petrol filling station, retail and drive through café developments after demolishing the existing building.

The former pub was acquired by EG when operator Greene King put it up for sale in 2015 and it closed its doors for the final time earlier this year, in May. The site also includes the children’s soft play area, Play Zone, formerly known as the Wacky Warehouse.

As part of the proposals, the adjacent West Blundell Bowling Club will be retained and upgraded.

Emily Robinson, senior planner at PWA Planning, said: “The development will create new employment for local people and breathe new life into vacant sites.

“We have worked with EG Group on many of its new sites in the UK and this will provide highquality, efficient forecourt services to local communities and motorists.”

How the site looks now.

Report by Tom Martin A DOCTOR from Crosby has been given a prestigious award for research into the side effects of immunotherapy treatment.

Dr Anna Olsson-Brown, 34, has been given the respected John Littler Medal 2018 in recognition of her “outstanding contribution to patient care and innovation.”

Her research surrounds patients receiving the drugs who can suffer from a variety of side effects, which if not managed correctly can have a profound affect on their lives.

Dr Olsson-Brown’s work is transforming the way these side effects are being assessed and managed, ultimately getting patients back into treatment more quickly.

Drivers should be aware of Central Square parking scam

Some young people want to help the community

Re: Parking issues at Central Square in Maghull.

In Central Square in Maghull there are spaces for five cars down the middle of the way in and way out of the car park.

One day in September I parked on what I thought was the fifth space in the far line.

I parked were someone had just left.

I admit it wasn’t marked but I thought they hadn’t got around to it yet.

I was only in the square for five minutes and as I left someone drove into the space I had just occupied.

To my horror on Saturday I received a parking fine for £60.

Maybe with all the recent letters regarding anti social behaviour and the lack of action by One Vision Housing, Sefton Council and the police, decent people resign themselves that our housing estates are overrun by the hood and hat brigade who think they are clever!

Drug dealing is openly going on in broad daylight in front of young children and people are living in fear on a daily basis.

No one has the answer to this and criminality will become the norm.

No agency wants to take responsibility for this problem and they just

A few days later I visited the square again and in the short time I was there another four cars parked in the same space.

Obviously, like me, these other drivers like me did not know the fifth space had been taken away for safety reasons.

If it was because of safety why not make both lines of parking four spaces only and not just one.

It is an easy way to make money.

I’m writing this because I think other drivers should be aware of this scam.

Shirley Whyatt, Maghull

fob the public off.

However, on a positive note some youths are doing some great things in the community like working voluntarily in hospitals and many other places.

They prove that some young people want to give something to the community and to make something of their lives so maybe those riding around on their bikes with their hood and hat uniform aren’t so clever after all!

Families of those serving nation face unique challenges As an Ambassador for SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, I am proudly supporting its Missed Moments campaign.

The campaign aims to highlight the unique challenges faced by military families and the impact that serving has on the whole family.

SSAFA recently surveyed Armed Forces families, both past and present and found that 56% have been apart for once-in-a-lifetime events, like the birth of a child or the funeral of a loved-one, due to service or deployment.

Furthermore, these sacrifices are little-understood by the wider population as the survey revealed that 81% of the public were unaware that military deployment can be up to 10 months.

SSAFA provides lifelong support to the whole Armed Forces community, understanding the complex nature of military service and the effect it can have on the wider family.

The charity seeks to support the whole family, from help with school runs and hospital appointments to providing support in time of financial or emotional need.

Most of my close friends are in the Armed Forces and I always seem to have someone away from home, whether that’s in places like Iraq or Afghanistan or closer to home helping with the flood relief.

Thankfully with modern military technology, we can at least keep in touch for most of the time.

I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for families in the past, who had no contact for months on end and for those lads and lasses deployed away from home, and away from their families, friends and loved ones.

Re: Letter regarding pot plants as fire risks, which incidentally I don’t agree with but that’s another issue.

I really don’t know how the letter writer can possibly equate pots plants with the Grenfell Tower disaster, when we all know that horrendous fire and resulting deaths was caused by totally unsafe and cheap quality cladding to the outside of the building that should never have been used on a tower block housing around 350 people but which appeared to pass all fire regulations for Kensington and Chelsea Council.

I cannot get over the news by a group of five mums down in Surrey and the cuts in their council’s budget for disabled kids... hello?

Somebody in the south woke up finally to a council budget cuts?

We up north had to get used to cutting right, left and centre - whether we like it or not.

The healthy kids were affected with closures of Sure Start to start with, followed by cuts in adult health services and social services.

How do the families of disabled children up north deal with cuts?

And don’t start me on the utter shambles of Universal Credit.

such timescale discrepancies once a person loses a job and is signed up for UC and providing paperwork in order and a prospective claimant is not late for the appointment with the ‘inquisition.’

Disgusting.

Once the south starts kicking off, the Government might finally realise, a change of direction is inevitable.

And our ‘dancing queen’ prime minister claims end of austerity?

As if.

In a recent edition of the Champion Maghull Town Council leader Patrick McKinley informed us of a survey of residents undertaken.

I have made extensive enquiries of a number of residents and in various social clubs and cannot find anybody who was involved in this enquiry.

People like myself who have lived in the area for over 50 years know we have always had drain problems.

We would like to know what plans are being made to overcome these problems and if these plans are for social housing or private residents.

All we want is some honesty and clarification from the council.

CCTV footage issued of ram raiders who tried to steal cash machine POLICE have issued CCTV footage of the attempted theft of an ATM at the Walton Centre.

The Champion reported last week on how ram-raiders tried to steal the machine from the neurology hospital.

A red Land Rover was driven into the sliding doors on the centre on Lower Lane at about 1.45am on Sunday, October 14.

No one was injured and no items were stolen in the incident.

Three occupants of the vehicle were seen dressed in black and grey, wearing balaclavas and gloves.

By our Court Reporter A WOMAN from Litherland has appeared in court after her dogs escaped from her home and bit a man trying to protect his own dog.

Stacey Williams, 33, of Bowden Street, pleaded guilty to being the owner of a dog dangerously out of control, causing injury and also to being drunk and disorderly when she appeared at Sefton Magistrates Court on October 17.

Angela Blackmore, prosecuting, said that Williams had returned home from a night out on August 18 when a neighbour opened her front door and her two American bulldogs escaped.

Mrs Blackmore said that Williams ran out of the house barefoot to chase them but by the time she caught up with them on Linacre Road they were already with a man walking a French bull dog.

“The owner of the French bull dog picked the dog up to protect it,” the prosecutor said, “He is six-foot-four and had to hold the dog above his shoulders.

“He was bitten to his arms.

“He does not have significant injuries because he was wearing a coat and had layers of clothing.

“But it is agreed that they do equate to more than deep scratches.

“He did bleed and had to receive medical attention and a tetanus.”

Mrs Blackmore said that a passing motorist stopped to rescue the man and his dog by taking them into their car.

After police arrived on the scene there was difficulty in getting the dogs under control, she said, adding that Williams was also arrested for being drunk and disorderly.

The court heard that prosecutors were seeking a contingent destruction order on the dogs, which are presently in police custody, meaning that they will not be put down providing Williams abides by certain conditions, such as keeping them on a lead and muzzling them when in public.

The case was adjourned to Liverpool Magistrates Court on November 29 in order for a dog behaviour expert to assess whether the dogs are safe to be released back to their owner.

Pupils win scholarships for top schools THREE pupils have become the first from their Bootle school to win scholarships to study for their A Levels at top boarding schools.

Jakub Mirynowski, Lewis Farrell and Antony Howard, who are all 16-yearsold, are the first youngsters from the King’s Leadership Academy Hawthornes to achieve this feat.

It's been two years since The Hawthorne's became part of the Great Schools Trust, changing its name to King’s Leadership Academy Hawthornes, and staff are delighted with the trio’s achievement.

Jakub, Lewis, and Antony are all currently in Year 11 working towards their GCSEs next summer, and they have become beneficiaries of the school’s

link with the educational charities SpringBoard Bursary Foundation and Hope Opportunity Trust.

The charities will be sponsoring the boys through their A Level studies after they successfully completed tests and interviews to show their potential and ambition for further study.

With their families, the boys are now in the process of selecting their Sixth Form from more than 60 leading boarding schools across the country who work with the charities.

They already have a firm idea of where they would like their A Levels to lead with Jakub and Lewis hoping to pursue a career in computer science and Antony in psychology.

Peter Gaul, Principal at King’s Leader-

ship Academy Hawthornes, said: “Everybody at the school is delighted and rightly proud of Jakub, Antony and Lewis’s achievement. They are a credit to their families and show that hard work and determination pays off. “It is also a landmark for the school. It is two years since the Hawthorne’s became part of the Great Schools Trust and the boys are proof that the school’s ethos that everyone should aspire to achieve does have a positive impact on the lives of our pupils and their families. “I have no doubt we have other pupils with the talent to succeed and will benefit from our partnership given by the SpringBoard Bursary Foundation and Hope Opportunity Trust.�

AS the colder weather begins to creep in as we approach winter, locals are being reminded where to get free, fast and expert advice from their local pharmacist.

In preparation for winter and the illnesses the cold weather can bring, Healthwatch Sefton and the two NHS clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) in the borough are working in partnership to raise awareness of the importance of using pharmacists.

All pharmacists offer expert advice on minor illnesses and ailments and should be a first port of call for conditions like coughs, colds, aches and pains, as well as advising on healthy eating and stopping smoking.

They can recommend the best over-thecounter remedy to start treating symptoms as soon as possible, without the need for an appointment.

In addition to the free advice already available from high street pharmacies, some also offer the Care at the Chemist scheme, which is available to all patients registered with a Sefton GP. It is intended to improve access for patients suffering from minor ailments to the medicines they need to treat the illness without the need to see a GP. Maurice Byrne, Healthwatch Sefton Locality Representative for Maghull, explained: “It is important for people to bear in mind the options available to them when it comes to seeking medical advice or information. “But, if you don’t know which pharmacy is part of the Care at the Chemist scheme, then it can be difficult to make that choice.�

The following pharmacies are currently part of the Care at the Chemist scheme: Southport and Formby - Bispham Road Pharmacy, Southport; Cambridge Road Pharmacy, Churchtown; Crossens Pharmacy, Rufford Road; Formby Health Rooms & Pharmacy, Liverpool Road; Fylde Road Pharmacy, Southport; Hesketh Park, Queens Road, Southport; Sedem Pharmacy, Churchtown; St Marks Pharmacy, Southport; Woolleys Internet Pharmacy, Bispham Road, Southport.

THOSE who wear fancy dress costumes during Halloween are being warned about fire risks by Merseyside Fire and Rescue.

The fire authority says many costumes are not manufactured to the same safety standards as normal clothing and this can cause them to ignite almost instantly and burn far faster.

Children wearing Halloween costumes should be kept well away from naked flames and other sources of heat at all times and care should be taken when lighting pumpkins.

Michael Buratti, arson team manager for Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service said: “Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service would like everyone to enjoy Halloween and Bonfire Night as Halloween costumes can catch fire easily. safely as possible.

Young footballers litter-pick to raise funds for dream trip

Some reasons why November is the brightest month for me NOW we are fast approaching November - the month in which I was born - which makes me a Scorpio though I’m not at all sure what kind of man that should make me.

I have a theory that you have some kind of affinity with the month in which you celebrate your birthday.

Certainly, of all the generally cold and damp months of winter - and yes, I am aware that November is for some reason I cannot fathom still supposed to be autumn - I certainly like November the most.

I have fond memories of taking a regular holiday in November on my good old wooden motor cruiser, Manxman, in Norfolk.

November can provide some really stunning days. It is certainly getting cooler, but the month can provide some glorious days of brilliant sunshine.

And it can really be smashing cruising down the river with the last of the autumnal leaves still clinging to the trees and fresh air in your lungs.

On the other hand I honestly do enjoy those chill, damp evenings that November can provide.

When I was a schoolboy, my dad and mum used to take me and my brother George to a cafe in London Road, Liverpool for what was my then favourite meal.

Eggs and chips.

And one of my abiding memories is standing in the drizzle outside the cafe (while my parents paid), marvelling at the trams making their way to the Pier Head with the tracks glistening in the street lights and flashes occasioned by the cold and damp from the trams' overhead power collectors.

Another lasting memory was when I invited a friend along as well and because the salt and sugar cellars on the table looked very much alike, poured sugar all over his meal.

Actually, I can’t remember whether Bob ate it or not!

Once old enough to have started work, and living in a bed-sit in Crosby, I started a new birthday tradition of going off to the Isle of Man for the event.

And that too was great - quite apart from the fact that off-season you could get very cheap first class hotel accommodation (the only other visitors appeared to be tractor salesmen) and similarly cheap car hire.

But again the weather made the greatest impression.

I remember one year when my brother and I were staying in a pub in Castletown, watching huge rollers breaking over the sea wall and another strolling through the sunlit Groudle Glen.

Most strange though was the year when my dad came along and one glorious frosty morning under clear blue skies, we took the bus over to Peel - probably about 20 miles as the crow flies.

In Peel, snow was falling from a leaden sky and there were inches of snow on the ground.

After a pit stop in a local hostelry we boarded the bus back to the capital, Douglas, (where that year we had made our base) - and guess what?

Yep, dry streets and blue skies.

Well that's the magical Isle of Man - and November for you.

Then there was the year when, with brother George, we visited a pub. quaintly name The Duck's Nest, which was right by the IOM steam railway station.

A woman was celebrating her 21st birthday and a young man was trying to impress her. Despite her protests, he bought a large bottle of champagne which he presented to her.

She then proceeded to walk around the pub, pouring the expensive but unwanted drink into fellow customer ’s glasses.

I have no idea if bitter beer and champagne is a recognised tipple - but I'll tell you what, it ain't half bad!

So November certainly holds a lot of great memories for me.

Even the watch I wear, which dates from the first year after we bought ‘Manxman’ was presented to me by my late mum on our first cruise - for my November birthday.

A YOUNG football team in Bootle who are trying to raise thousands of pounds to take part in a dream tournament abroad have taken the task of fundraising into their own hands!

Northfield Sports Association, which is a registered charity, has 25 teams ranging from the ages of six to 17, and it’s the Under 9s side who are trying to raise £4,000 to fly to Holland for a tournament.

To help hit the target, the children went to Crosby beach to stage a litter-picking event in the hope of generating donations from passersby for carrying out the good deed.

They will also be visiting the homeless shelter opened last week in Vauxhall, as well as collect food items for local foodbanks. The team is accepting donations and to help their cause, contact club welfare officer Rachel Stevenson on 07856 841 309.

China cargo ship ‘milestone for Port’

TILE WORLD See our extensive range on our website www.tileworld.co.uk

PORCELANOSA AGENT Report by Tom Martin A CARGO ship from China which arrived at the Port of Liverpool last week could mark an “important milestone” for the docks.

The MV Jork vessel, owned by Cossco, docked on Wednesday, October 17 with a cargo of high value goods which were unloaded to be delivered to supply chains around the UK. Port of Liverpool bosses say the facility boasts a consistent truck turnaround time of less than 40 minutes, meaning cargo is expected to be at its final destination hours after arrival.

Peel Ports recently welcomed China Merchant Marine to Liverpool and were due to receive another state-sponsored visit on Tuesday, October 23, with 20 delegates from the Department of Commerce, Jiangsu Province due to explore the port.

The Port of Liverpool’s growth in the container sector has grown by 9 per cent in 12 months.

Mark Whitworth, chief executive officer of Peel Ports Group, said: “The arrival of the MV Jork at Liverpool is positive news for the Port and is down to the strategic, dedicated approach we’ve taken to the Asian market in recent years.

“Our relationship with China has been incredibly strong for a number of years now, and the faith shown by COSCO in the capabilities and infrastructure of Liverpool shows how global perceptions of the UK’s shipping ecosystem are starting to shift.

“With multimodal access by rail, sea and road, Liverpool2 is the logical port of call for global lines looking to move stock in the most efficient way.”

Peel Ports already has a strong relationship with crane manufacturer ZPMC, the firm which supplied five ship-to-shore cranes and CRMGs for the £400m container terminal, Liverpool2.

A delegation from Peel Ports is currently in China to discuss phase two of Liverpool2’s development as it continues to try to attract the world’s biggest shipping lines, whilst a senior commercial executive visit to Shanghai will start in November.

Singers survive first week of X Factor live SINGERS Anthony Russell and LMA Choir survived the first week of X Factor’s live shows after hitting the right notes with judges.

Bootle-born Anthony finally made his first appearance live on stage, which comes as the third time of asking after he twice failed to make the cut in previous years.

The fan favourite, who is being mentored by judge Louis Tomlinson, gave an emotional rendition of Issues, by Julia Michaels, on Saturday, October 20 to win over the public and generate enough votes to see him through to next week.

Joining him in the second round will be LMA Choir, whose 14 members include singers from Bootle and Maghull, after they performed The Circle of Life from The Lion King.

Following the live performance, with the crowd chanting “LMA”, Robbie Williams said: “Where’s my camera? Give me that camera over there - Scousers, mobilise! These are your people – do what you do so well, and take them through to this competition’s final. Come on!”

Simon Cowell added: “This was a great song

Anthony Russell performed Issues on the show.

choice, it was a great performance.

“We’ve never had a choir on this show before, and I have waited for a moment like this. This to me was the best performance we’ve seen you do so far,” while Louis Tomlinson added that “It was a brilliant song and a brilliant performance to start off your live shows.”

LMA Choir members include Jenny Fairbrother, 21, from Bootle; Sam Conlan, 23,from Bootle; and Sophie Ortt, 22, from Maghull.

Football match raises £4,500 for teacher undergoing pioneering treatment for brain cancer Report by Tom Martin A FOOTBALL match was held last weekend to raise funds for teacher Isabel Morison who is having a pioneering form of treatment for brain cancer.

Isabel who was brought up in Maghull and teaches music at Sacred Heart Catholic College in Crosby watched the match on Sunday, October 21 at the Marine Travel Arena when current teachers at Sacred Heart faced off against Sixth Form students!

It was a high scoring encounter, with the staff running out 7-3 winners, but that was largely down to the goalscoring exploits of Isabel’s young son, Dylan, who bagged four goals for the teachers and was named man of the match!

It helped raise an incredible £4,500 for Isabel’s cause, which will go towards the £100,000 target which is needed to pay for her medical bills.

Isabel said after the match: “I can’t thank all those involved enough! Organisers, helpers, attendees, footballers!

“Everyone came together in true Sacred Heart style, culminating in what was a truly fabulous event. Memories my boy will have forever!”

The match was supported by Jamie Carragher, who turned up to cheer on the teams and enjoyed a quick kick-around with Isabel in the centre of the pitch.

There was also a raffle with some of the prizes including signed shirts from Liverpool star Adam Lallana and Everton

Isabel's husband and two children were also in attendance, along with a healthy crowd who enjoyed watching the competitive match.

In February, Isabel was diagnosed with Grade 4 Primary Glioblastoma, the most aggressive and fastest growing form of brain cancer.

Because the cancer is so aggressive and unpredictable, treatments are limited, so she is considering immunotherapy, known to be working successfully in treating some previously incurable cancers, but is expensive.

JWT Haulage lorries

Major haulage firm moving HQ to Port Report by Tom Martin

ONE of the North West’s largest independent container haulage companies is set to move its headquarters to The Port of Liverpool.

The move by JWT Haulage will take place in March next year and they estimate it will lead to an increase of revenue by around 30% for the firm.

Despite haulage delays at The Port earlier this year, JWT says its operation, transporting goods for clients

including B&M has gone from strength to strength in 2018.

JWT bosses say its success is due to its close working relationship with port owners Peel Ports, giving it direct access to major shipping lines using Liverpool.

Earlier this year JWT secured five acres of container storage facilities at the Port of Liverpool, allowing it to handle larger volumes of goods for distribution to stores across the UK. And since haulier congestion issues at the port were resolved, JWT has been able to help its customers move

goods quickly around the North West and beyond.

Jon Whiteley, director for JWT, said: “There’s no hiding from the fact that congestion issues slowed things down at The Port of Liverpool for a short period over the summer.

“Despite this, the communication and support provided by Peel Ports has been first-rate, and has allowed us to increase our operation significantly in the past year.

“Given our new location within the port estate, we have enjoyed greater access

An aerial view of the new football pitches

State-of-the-art football pitches are unveiled Report by Tom Martin NEW state-of-the-art football pitches have opened in north Liverpool as part of a £20million plan to improve sports facilities in the city.

The “community sports complex” has opened at Jeffrey Humble Playing Fields and features three floodlit third generation (3G) artificial grass pitches (AGP), male and female changing facilities, car parking and an 80-station gym, with group exercise classes available Sefton-based adult and child football teams will make use of the pitches, and it will become the home for the Walton and Kirkdale Junior Football League.

Liverpool City Council worked alongside the Football Foundation and the Liverpool Football Association to compile a five-year Football Development Plan, which is a vision of how sport will be played on site with an emphasis on increasing participation.

It is anticipated that the new football hub at Jeffrey Humble Playing Fields will contribute to an increase of more than 6,500 people playing the national game over the next five years, which represents a growth of 355%.

Of this, a significant rise in the number of females playing football is predicted, with over 750 new players within this demographic creating an 810% boost.

Mayor of Liverpool, Joe Anderson, said: “I’m delighted to see the first of the hub sites opening. These are some of the best

state of the art facilities in the country and part of our huge investment in facilities for grassroots football to last a generation.

Players, young and old, are going to see a huge difference in where they play.

“We’ve worked alongside partner organisations to make this happen, it’s been a real team effort, and we’re absolutely thrilled with the results.”

David Pugh, chief executive officer of Liverpool County FA, said: “In addition to the Walton & Kirkdale Junior Football League, Jeffrey Humble will become the home of the Liverpool County FA Girls League and the North Liverpool Junior League, highlighting the number of young players in particular that will be able to enjoy football in a state-of-the-art environment.”

ENTERTAINMENT

Maggie May is an ‘unforgettable show’ Review by Ron Ellis Maggie May – The Musical Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool IF ever there was a play that epitomised everything the Royal Court Theatre stands for, this production written by Bob Eaton and Sayan Kent is it. Funny, heart-warming, exciting, fast moving and with some great music.

It also has the basis of all successful musicals, a serious backdrop to the action.

In this case, women’s changing place in society before and after the First World War. It is a story that captures the soul of Liverpool but not so localised it would not travel.

Just as important, there is the vital love element which captures the attention from the opening bars and could well take

the West End and Broadway audiences by storm.

Christina Tedders gave a virtuoso performance as Maggie May who arrives in Liverpool from Ireland in 1911 hoping to catch a boat to New York. But her bag containing all her worldly possessions is stolen by a group of ne’er-do-wells on the docks. Stranded in Liverpool, she befriends a local lad, Charlie (Michael Fletcher) who walks out with her on a Sunday. Eventually she gets a job as a maid in a grand house where she is seduced by the rich young owner, James Campbell (Tom Connor) but she is soon back in the docks, reduced to working as a prostitute to survive.

All changes when war breaks out. Both Charlie and James go off to fight but, when the conflict is over, they find the world they return to has changed. Workers are rising against the Establishment and the unions threaten strikes. The two

Packed venue enjoyed Pasta and Puccini Review by Ron Ellis

men represent opposite sides of that spectrum but whose side is Maggie on? Who can offer her the most? More importantly, who does she love?

With a revolving stage moving the action back and forth between the docks, the mansion and the dockside pub, the story is told through the music, from plaintive love songs to sea shanties, from ballads to folk and ballads with the multitalented cast playing a variety of instruments including fiddles, trumpets, saxophones, piano, drums and guitars, all under the jurisdiction of M.D. Howard Grey.

This is a musical that will become a standard for years to come, on a par with shows like Chicago and Miss Saigon. It runs until November 10 at The Royal Court. Don’t miss it.

I can’t wait to see the film.

Star rating 10 out of 10. An unforgettable show.

MORE than 100 people were packed into St. Mary’s College for Opera Viva’s supper concert, this year on an Italian theme with music by Puccini preceded by a meal of pasta and tiramisu.

A large cast, dressed in colourful costumes for the occasion, entertained the audience with excerpts from some of the composer’s greatest works including Your tiny hand is frozen from La Boheme; Te Deum from Tosca; The Humming Chorus and One Fine Day from Madame Butterfly; O My Beloved Father from Gianni Schicchi and Nessun Dorma from Turandot.

The M.D. was Isobel Jenkins; artistic director, Viv Sharp and Robert Chesters provided the piano accompaniment.

The concert was compered by David Palmer.

The company’s next production, Verdi’s La Traviata, will be performed between April 6 and 14 at venues across Merseyside.

Night celebrates hits FROM I Say A Little Prayer, To Close To You, The Look Of Love To Walk On By - Back To Bacharach celebrates the biggest hits of a song-writing maestro.

Aretha Franklin, Tom Jones, The Carpenters, Dionne Warwick, Dusty Springfield, Gene Pitney and more have all sung Bacharach songs.

Walk on By, Close to You, I Say a Little Prayer, The Look of Love, Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on my Head, Make it Easy on Yourself, Do You Know the Way to San Jose, Twenty-Four Hours from Tulsa, (There's) Always Something There to Remind Me are just some of the hits that Bacharach has had.

Back to Bacharach - the biggest, hit-packed concert show on tour will be at Southport theatre on Friday, November 9 at 7.30pm.

Honouring song-writing maestro Burt Bacharach, the production features all of the three-time Academy Award winner’s greatest hits, performed by four stars from London’s West End and The Magic Moments Orchestra, in a 100 per cent live production.

DEAR SACRED HEART OF JESUS

In the past I have asked for many favours.

This time I ask for one special favour. (mention it) Take it dear heart of Jesus and place it within your own broken heart where your Father sees it. Then, in his merciful eyes, it will become your favour, not mine.

Notice is hereby given that Greene King Brewing and Retailing Limited has applied in respect of the The Liver, 137 South Road, Waterloo, L22 0LT for a variation to the premises licence under the Licensing Act 2003 to allow for: This is an application to extend the sale of alcohol times of the premises in line with the existing hours for live and recorded music. The new proposed times are as follows: Sale of alcohol - Friday: from 10:00 to 01:00 (currently permitted 10:00 to 00:00); Saturday: from 10:00 to 01:00 (currently permitted 10:00 to 00:00). All other permitted hours, licensable activities and conditions are to remain unchanged by this application. Representations to this application must be made in writing, by the end of 13 November 2018, to the Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council Licensing Authority at Magdalen House, 30 Trinity Road, Bootle, L20 3NJ where the register of licensing applications can be inspected during office hours.

It is an offence to knowingly or recklessly make a false statement in connection with this application. Persons will be liable on summary conviction to an unlimited fine.

Back when Top Gear hosts had credibility PADDY McGuinness and Freddie Flintoff presenting Top Gear? Yeah, right.

The fact that I initially responded to this week’s big news – admittedly delivered secondhand by a mate rather than through any vaguely official news source – as someone taking the mick pretty much sums up what I made of the situation.

Yet there it was on the programme’s official website, complete with a photo of the pair posing with Chris Harris and a freshly polished Porsche 911.

Obviously, it was some elaborate publicity stunt by the Beeb, and there’d be a hyperlink somewhere directing me to that ancient internet meme with that shot of Leonardo DeCaprio from The Great Gatsby, winking smugly at you as he clinks a glass of Martini. ‘ONLY JOKING!’, it’d scream in enormous white lettering, and we’d all have a good giggle.

Except it didn’t. I’m sure that Paddy and Freddie are both entertaining blokes who’d buy you a pint if you bumped into them in a pub and asked them nicely enough, but that shouldn’t be nearly enough to land them the biggest gig in petrolhead-dom. I can only assume that the Take Me Out star has an innate knowledge of lift-off oversteer and the ability to make variable valve timing sound interesting, because Britain’s biggest motoring brand is about to take a massive hit on its credibility if he doesn’t.

It matters because, for all its form for deliberately setting caravans on fire and cartoonish mystery

racing driving drivers, Top Gear is still a respected name with clout with the people who make cars, people who work with them and yes, you, the people who buy them. It’s no longer be the place to go if you want to know if the current Astra’s any good but it can still do authoritative as much as entertaining – and that’s because the people fronting it had genuine credibility.

In its mid-Noughties heyday it was fronted by a bloke from Performance Car, a chap who used to present Men & Motors and someone who once got fired from Autocar -– yep, that’s Clarkson, Hammond and May. You might have found Chris Evans annoying in his single series at the helm but he’s a classic collector who founded and organised his own car show, and Chris Harris has been writing for evo and putting together YouTube clips on cars seemingly since time immemorial. Even Matt LeBlanc has spent an eternity collecting cars and hanging around F1 races.

So I worry that putting two presenters CAR SALES who are massively CENTRAL GARAGE, 101 Ormskirk Road, Rainford popular but don’t Tel:(01744) 883454 appear to have any VIEW ALL THESE CARS WITH PICTURES AT motoring background www.arthurdagnallcarsales.co.uk – even the best thing the official Top Gear 2016 (16) HONDA CRV S 2.0 PETROL, in silver, with sat nav, A/C, CC, e/pack, alloys, CD etc, only 21,000 miles................................................................ £15,995 statement could reas2017 (17) HYUNDAI i10 PREMIUM 5DR, in white, with A/C, e/pack, alloys, ONLY SIXTEEN THOUSAND MILES .................................................. £7,995 sure us with is that 2016 (66) FORD FIESTA 1.0 ECOBOOST 5DR SPECIAL EDITION, in candy blue, with white roof, mirrors and wheels, A/C, e/pack, CD etc, McGuinness is “a ONLY NINE THOUSAND MILES.............................................................................................................................................................................. £9,995 massive fan” of the 2015 (65) FORD C-MAX 1.6 ZETEC, in burnished glow, with A/C, e/pack, alloys, CD etc, ONLY THREE THOUSAND MILES ................................ £11,995 show – is a step 2015 (65) TOYOTA YARIS 1.33 ICON 5DR, in silver, with A/C, e/pack, alloys, CD etc, ONLY FIVE THOUSAND MILES.......................................... £9,495 entirely in the wrong 2015 (15) CITROEN DS3 PURETECH 1.2 DSTYLE NAV, in purple, with sat nav, A/C, e/pack, alloys, CD, CC etc, only 24,000 miles ...........................£8,995 direction.

Bucks come back from two goals down to win tie in penalty shootout Bootle 2 Vauxhall Motors 2 (Bootle won 4-2 on penalties).

BOOTLE advanced into the second round of the Macron Challenge Cup after coming from behind to eventually overcome Vauxhall Motors on penalty kicks, writes Connor O’Neill.

After falling 2-0 behind early in the second half, the Bucks hit back to score twice in the final 16 minutes to send the tie to penalties.

Bucks stopper Jack McGovern then made amends for an earlier mistake by saving two of the visitors’ spot kicks.

Under the guidance of newly appointed permanent boss Joe Doran, the Bucks came into the game on the back of a midweek 4-0 win over Padiham.

And despite starting on the front foot here, Doran's side fell behind after just 13 minutes.

Joe Brandon headed Kristofer Leigh's clearance into the path of Kieran Hamm.

The forward then found Kev Excell who flicked the ball first time into the path of Daniel Cross, whose effort found the roof of the net via the underside of the bar.

Bootle twice went close to drawing level from distance with Antony Hickey curling wide and Ste Jones firing over.

Leigh then denied Carl Peers after the midfielder had collected Liam Loughlin's defence-splitting pass.

Seven minutes into the second

half and Mick McGraa's side had a second. A deep cross from Thomas Murray was completed missed by McGovern with Hamm on hand to head the ball into the empty net.

Bootle rallied, and after Jones hit the crossbar with a left-footed freekick, the Bucks reduced the arrears with sixteen minutes remaining.

Karl Noon’s cross from the right was headed into the path of Ryan Cox by Tom Mitchell with the returning forward taking a touch before finishing into the bottom corner of the net.

Cox was soon denied a leveller when Leigh pushed his header over the bar - before Motors full-back Kynan Mason blocked Noon's effort from close-range.

But with two minutes of normal time remaining, Doran's side sent the tie to penalties.

Ste Hoy collected Matthew Carlin's headed clearance before driving into the visitors' box - the defender then pulled the ball back to Connor Millington who drove a low effort into the bottom corner of the net.

And so to penalties.

After Cross and Millington converted their spot kicks - McGovern saved from Ben Greenop before Hoy scored his spot-kick to put the Bucks 2-1 ahead.

Both Declan Drysdale and Ben Jago then dispatched their penalties before McGovern saved from Mason meaning Loughlin had the chance to put his side through.

The Bucks captain coolly converted to set up a second round tie away at Cheadle Town.

Boyle bags hat-trick in just six minutes Maghull 5 Redgate Rovers 1 MICHAEL Boyle deservedly earned all the accolades as he came off the bench ten minutes into the second half to net a hat trick in only six minutes for Maghull as they strolled to a five goals to one success over visitors Redgate Rovers in their West Cheshire First Division encounter at Old Hall Field last Saturday.

It was a game in which the visitors, who had formerMaghull Reserve team players Adam Edwards and Jordan Dilworth in their ranks, more than held their own in the

opening 20 minutes but it was Boyle's treble in addition to first half strikes from Joel Richardson and John Hedges which cemented Maghull's position at the head of the table.

Maghull Reserves returned from Cheshire Lines pointless as they were defeated by an experienced side by a single first half goal in their Second Division contest.

Next Saturday Maghull travel to Ellesmere Port where they play Vauxhall Motors in a West Cheshire Pyke Cup tie while at Old Field the Reserves entertain Mallaby in a Division Two match. Kick offs are at 3pm

Mariners out of cup but can take heart from spirited display Marine 1 Salford City 2

MORE than 1,700 fans enjoyed a spirited Marine performance who gave the National League leaders a scare in an entertaining FA Cup clash.

The eagerly-awaited match didn't disappoint and a valiant effort by the Mariners just wasn't enough to pull off an upset against a strong Salford side.

As the grey clouds began to appear shortly after kick-off, Salford made their presence on the game known and dominated the midfield for much of the first half.

To give credit where it’s due, Marine put up an excellent fight in the first half and they managed to carve out a few chances – some would argue they were unlucky to not take the lead.

Finley Sinclair-Smith and Danny Mitchley were a force for Mariners in the first half as the duo looked the most likely out of anyone on the field to grab a goal.

The first goal came in the 40th minute as Danny Whitehead struck an effort from the edge of the box which found a way into the bottom left corner of Fearon’s net.

Ibou Touray was instrumental for Salford in the first half,

almost scoring himself before whipping in the cross that would ultimately give Whitehead his chance to strike.

Ged Kinsella was introduced for Marine at half-time, and the second substitute of the game, James Short, was brought on for the injured Kenny Strickland within the first 15 minutes.

The second half didn’t begin as planned for the National League leaders as Marine grabbed an equaliser in the 49th minute through a lobbed effort by Mitchley, which left Chris Neal completely dumbfounded.

It didn’t take long for Salford to reclaim their lead however as Danny Lloyd’s looping header found its way over Fearon and into the back of the gaping net – before the winner the game could have gone either way.

Mitchley had an opportunity to grab a late equaliser but his effort rolled agonisingly wide of goal and it proved to be the final chance of the fixture.

Salford couldn’t seem to get out of second gear but they didn’t need to, that being said Marine can be happy with how they handled themselves.

Marine were due to host Nantwich Town in a league fixture last night (Tuesday) and then return to cup action on Saturday when they are at home to Lancaster City in the first round of the FA Trophy.

Injury-hit Waterloo pay price for failing to take their chances Anselmians 18 Waterloo 12 AN inability to take their chances proved the undoing of Firwood Waterloo at Anselmians, playing at the home of Vauxhall Motors FC in Ellesmere Port.

“We knew this was going to be a tough contest but we started very well and had enough chances to take a healthy lead but we failed to do so and allowed Anselmians to get the upper hand,” confessed head coach Stuart Turner.

Indeed by letting those opportunities slip and los-

Clare House, 166 Lord Street, Southport PR9 0QA

ing outside half Nick Dwyer forcing a complete rearrangement of the side neutered much of the Firwood Waterloo game plan Despite early Waterloo pressure it was the home side who took first points through a two tries and a conversion.

Firwood Waterloo snatched a try back with Alwyn Watkins-Williams opting to go blind from a scrum on the Anselmians ‘22’ to get Luke Nelson over before Anselmians closed the half with a penalty for 15-5.

In the second period a second penalty from the

01704 392 392

home side put them further ahead but from a solid period of play Tom Lavell broke straight through the opposition from a scrum for a try converted by Weir.

Just six points adrift Waterloo did everything possible to snatch a further score but with the Anselmians defence proving impregnable were unable to make the crucial break through.

“It was disappointing to lose a game I am sure we could and perhaps should have won,” Turner stated.

“However it has given us some food for thought. For

www.champnews.com

example we need to look at and improve our set piece but at this level losing certain key players is a major factor for without a first choice XV out on the park any side in this league is going to suffer.

“However despite the result the spirit among the players is still very high, they are willing to learn and we are improving all the time.”

This Saturday Firwood Waterloo are at home to Warrington.

This match will also mark the 200th appearance for Waterloo for Jack Weare.
