COUNCIL SAYS NO TO LIVE STREAMS OF MEETINGS

INSIDE THIS WEEK...

Report by Danielle Thompson

LIVE-STREAMING of council meetings will not be implemented due to budget constraints, despite calls for the council to be ‘more opaque.’

Borough councillor and former MP John Pugh called for the live-streaming over the web of some council meetings, particularly full council and planning committees. He argues that the public have a right not only to know, but to see what is being done in their name.

He told the Champion: “We have to accept that councils are far more opaque and secretive than most public bodies in a digital age.

“There has been considerable resentment from some quarters when members of the public have tried to video or live tweet proceedings but an official record would put those concerns to rest.

“Interested members of the public find it a struggle in the depths of winter to hoof it down to a draughty town hall one or other end of the borough.

Scouts race to victory

SPORTY youngsters from the 9th Formby Scouts won the annual Chariot Race competition in Bispham.

The troop entered three teams, with one team winning the Scout Section race and also logging the fastest Scout lap of the weekend, completing the course in 7.37 minutes at Bispham Hall Scout Campsite. The winning A Team comprised of Tristan Callow, James Thompson, Max Dickinson, Alex Gardiner, James Shaw and Jasper Berry.

Mark Sheil, assistant Scout leader for the group said: “The chariot is a two wheeled, free standing vehicle capable of carrying a passenger over a rough, cross country course approximately 1,000 yards in length.

Democracy

The winning team with their trophies

“While accepting that council meetings will never trouble TV ratings to challenge the soaps, the very low cost of live streaming must tempt us to see if it can enhance local democracy.

“From first hand observation I cannot see that Sefton should have anything to hide. Like with the televising of parliament there is the possibility that it could change behaviour of councillors but I have seen nothing first hand on Sefton being as bad as the catcalling and boorishness of Prime Minster’s Questions.

MERSEYSIDE Police could lose as many as 300 officers if controversial pension plan changes go ahead.

The National Police Pension Scheme faces a £417million funding black hole, which will be eased by the Treasury after it was agreed they would make a oneoff payment of £252m nationally.

However, the government wants to impose the outstanding £165m bill on local police forces and if the proposal goes ahead, Merseyside Police would have to cough up £5m in 2019/2020 and £7m the following financial year, which is the equivalent of 300 police officer posts.

This comes on top of the existing £15m of cuts being imposed by central government by 2022/23.

Merseyside's Police Commissioner Jane Kennedy said: “The government are asking for a staggering amount of money, with no warning and the simple truth is

we don’t have it. The imposition of a new unfunded pension liability will swing a wrecking ball through the already difficult budget plans for 2019 and the following years.”

A National Audit Office report published in September confirmed that Merseyside Police is already the third worst hit force across England and Wales, having had the grant it receives from

central government reduced by 31% since 2010. Even when topped up by additional money from local taxpayers through the local Council Tax precept, the force has seen its overall budget reduced by 23%.

The cuts have seen the overall workforce slashed by nearly a quarter - from a total of 7,350 people in 2010, down to just 5,697 this year.

The police commissioner added: “If this pension bill is pushed through, Merseyside Police as an organisation will number just over 5,000 people by 2022 – that is a reduction of nearly a third in just 12 years.

“The chief constable has said the impact for Merseyside would be ‘crippling’. This is no exaggeration. The force will be unrecognisable from the one which patrolled our streets just a decade ago. Proactive crime prevention will be a thing of the past and officers will be forced to respond reactively to the most serious crimes only.

“If this bill is imposed our police service will be at breaking point.”

Scouts blaze to victory in chariot race

Council ‘no’ to live streams From page 1 “What it will do is provide a new access point for the ordinary council tax payer to see how his money is spent.

Currently we have a public question time at council meetings but the public don’t come and there has been about one question in the last 10 years. Live streaming could change all that.”

A spokesman for Sefton Council said: “The vast majority of local authority meetings are open to both the press and public, with many choosing to document what is discussed live online.

There is no restriction on members of the public or councillors recording or livestreaming these public meetings. This is a natural and very much welcome part of open government.

“It is also commonplace for ward councillors to attend meetings and represent those residents who cannot be there themselves. We have previously considered implementing an ‘in-house’ live-streaming service, however it was deemed to not be cost effective.”

From page 1 “Teams of up to seven scouts have to complete the course including a number of obstacles such as the Slippery Slope, the Mud Hole, the Maze and the Pond in the qualifying round.

“The top 20 teams who qualify then run again to find the final placings. The winners are the team who complete the course in the fastest time with the least number of points lost on the obstacles, taking into account the age handicap.

“This was an outstanding performance by the

scouts who had to work as a team and show grit and determination to finish the course. It is only the second year that we have entered, so to have won and with the fastest lap time of 7.37minutes, was a fantastic result.

Adding to the successful weekend our second team also finished in the top five. Last year we borrowed a chariot, but this year with the generous support of the St. Peters Educational Trust we had our own chariots built which certainly went towards the success of the teams.”

Barton brothers are cleared of money laundering charges THE two sons of a crooked care home owner have been cleared of money laundering - charges that former Sefton councillor David Richard Barton, 28, and his brother David Charles Barton, 25, both denied.

The two brothers stood trial alongside David Barton senior over a series of transactions, involving their student bank accounts, between September and October 2015.

The father, who owned Barton Park Nursing Home in Southport, is now serving 21 years in jail after being found guilty in July of five fraud offences, three counts of theft, false accounting and transferring criminal property. He stole more than £4m from elderly residents at the luxury home in Oxford Road.

But the brothers case was split from their

By our Court Reporter father ’s midway through the trial, due to concerns by the judge about the evidence against them.

The brothers, company directors, both of Oxford Road, Southport were set to face trial again in January. But after reviewing the case, the Crown said that they had decided to offer no evidence against David Charles Barton and he has formally been found not guilty.

Now, following a submission that there was no case to answer the judge ruled that David Richard Barton should also be acquitted.

Judge Steven Everett said: “My own sub-

jective view was if the case had proceeded as it was, he was highly likely to be acquitted.

“In my judgement, the prosecution have taken that on board and accepted that was highly likely to have happened.”

It was accepted David Richard Barton knew nothing of the frauds at Barton Park and his father was likely to have ‘misled his sons’.

Judge Everett added: “I tell you frankly, this is a difficult case to make a decision on. It’s a fine line.”

He said Barton snr, backed by the home's general manager Rosemary Booth, was ‘secretive’ and ‘perfectly capable of manipulation of people who were close to them’.

He continued that there was ‘substantial evidence’ Barton snr manipulated solicitors, financial advisers, employees and victims,

and he could have done the same to David Richard Barton.

“In my judgement the evidence raises the inference his father was perfectly capable of manipulating him in a way he would not have known.”

He said: “The reality is when looking at the case, no jury properly directed could properly conclude the case against him could be made.”

Barton snr's wife, Lucinda Barton, 55, also of Oxford Road, denies conspiracy to steal, false accounting, conspiracy to defraud, theft and money laundering, and is still to face trial.

Barton Park has been closed by the Care Quality Commission since Barton snr was jailed.

Arson attacks on borough’s refuse containers have almost doubled in last three years, say officers

RESIDENTS are being urged to ensure their bins don’t become targets for arsonists over the bonfire period.

Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service has revealed that arson attacks on refuse containers have nearly doubled in the last three years around the bonfire season, with 80 incidents taking place last year, almost double the number of incidents during the same period in 2014 when 41 were recorded.

‘Spooked’ Zoe Sand and found after deliver! going missing for five days

MEMBERS of the Rotary Club of Formby commemorated their group's anniversary by refurbishing a bench outside Formby Library.

Two years ago, members of the group marked their special 50th anniversary by buying the bench, which they placed facing the sun where library users can take time out to sit and read.

Jan Owen from the club said: “During the last two years, the bench has become a little weathered, and we felt it needed smartening up a bit.

“Our members, Ken Porter, Peter Connor and Brendan Ginty set to with sandpaper, sander and preservative oil to fix it and the result is a bench that once again looks welcoming for folk to use.

Warning to pet owners after fireworks caused dog to run away

by Danielle Thompson A TWO-YEAR-OLD Shih Tzu which went missing after being spooked by fireworks at a caravan park near Formby has been found... at a primary school in Crossens - five days after she went missing!

The dog, Zoe, was with her pensioner owners who were holidaying at Willowbank Caravan Park on the Coastal Road before being due to return home to Burnley on Monday.

But the couple had to extend their stay because they couldn’t bear to leave without their tiny companion.

But their anquish tuned to joy - and relief - when they heard Zoe had been found some distance away at St John’s Primary School in Crossens yesterday, Tuesday, thanks to a community effort coordinated on Facebook Former sheet metal worker Frank Ratcliffe, 65, and his retired teaching assistant wife Susan, 67, said Zoe was startled after hearing loud fireworks last Friday, October 26.

The Champion shared an appeal to find Zoe on our Facebook page and the post was ‘shared’ by more than 630 users and read by more than 21,000 people, who offered encouragement and help to her owners before she was eventually found.

The grateful couple believe what happened to Zoe is a stark reminder of just how pets can be terrified by fireworks.

National charity Guide Dogs have released advice ahead of Bonfire Night on how to keep your dog safe during the fireworks season.

David Grice from the charity said:

Round table cancels firework display Charity bonfire event scrapped after months of planning

SOUTHPORT Hesketh Round Table have announced that they will not be putting on their popular annual charity fireworks and bonfire this year.

The event located at Victoria Park, has been one of Southport’s biggest and best bonfires for more than 10 years, raising tens of thousands of pounds for local charities and good causes.

Chairman Dan Hubbard said: “Unfortunately this year we have to make the very difficult decision not to go ahead with the event. “The team of volunteers that run the bonfire started working on the 2018 event back in April, booking all the major attractions etc. “In early September, through no fault of our own

Report by Henry James we were faced with a significant change in circumstances affecting a major part of our plans to run the event. We spent weeks working with the relevant suppliers, contractors and authorities doing our utmost to make this year’s event happen. “Given the timescales and the nature of the challenges facing us; we felt that we couldn’t deliver the event that we were ultimately happy with, nor one that the thousands of people that have supported

the event over the years have become used to. We felt there was no option but to cancel this year’s event and plan to come back bigger and better 2019! “We are very much aware that this is an established and very popular family event in the autumn calendar, and we will miss running it this year as much as many people will miss the event itself. “We apologise for any disappointment this may cause, and hope that everyone enjoys their bonfire night this year! “We would like to thank the families of Southport, local businesses and the wider community for all the support we have been given over the years; without it, such events would not be possible.

Burglars target homes in spate of break-ins A NUMBER of burglaries and attempted breakins have been reported across Southport and Formby.

On Saturday, October 20, between 12.30am and 7.30am, Merseyside Police received a report of an offender attempting to gain entry to a property on Bispham Road, Southport. The offender had snapped the lock on a conservatory door but had not gained access.

On Tuesday, October 23 at 1.30pm a property in Portland Street, Southport was broken into.

The offender(s) had gained entry to the property via the rear patio doors and conducted an ‘untidy search’ before stealing items.

On the same day, another two burglaries were reported earlier in Ainsdale and Formby just after 2am. The conservatory of a house on Liverpool Road, Ainsdale, was forced open but the offenders made off after they were disturbed by the house alarm.

Later, at around 3.20am a home-owner on Greenloons Drive in Formby reported being woken by the house alarm after a back door was damaged. A police dog handler attended to search the area, but the culprits had made off.

Sergeant Ian Allum said: “I would like to reassure the public that we are exploring a number of lines of enquiry in relation to these incidents and doing everything in our power to apprehend those responsible and bring them to justice. “Thankfully on all occasions, no one was hurt.

However the victims have been left feeling insecure in their own homes. “All residents across Merseyside have a right to feel comfortable and safe in their communities, homes and places of work and for this to be taken away, is really upsetting. “We’d urge anyone who has also been a victim of a similar crime, may have seen someone acting suspiciously or has any information that could help with our investigations, however small it may seem, to get in contact as this could prove vital and prevent further offences.�

Rate relief boost for Homestart charity DISCRETIONARY rate relief has been recommended for approval for a charity based in Southport and Formby.

Homestart Southport and Formby is a registered charity with the Charities Commission and in line with other registered charities is entitled to 80% mandatory rate relief. It has applied to be topped up to 100% (an additional ÂŁ2,119) in respect of their premises on Wight Moss Way in Southport.

Although charitable organisations are eligible for 80% mandatory relief, this relief can be topped up to 100% at the discretion of the local authority under the Local Government Finance Act 1988.

Under rate retention 99% of discretionary top up rate relief must be borne by the local Council Tax Payers, 1% by the Fire Authority According to the application, Homestart Southport and Formby are providing a valuable and unique service to Sefton residents despite the cut in council funding. The impact of not awarding relief would mean that the number of families that they support would have to be reduced.

Ring the bells, fly the flag! FORMBY COMPOSITE DOORS & BIFOLDS How residents will mark One of the largest collection of 100 year anniversary of colours & styles in the North West the end of First World War

By Danielle Thompson PATRIOTIC residents across the borough are marking the centenary of the end of World War One with a series of events.

Locals are being asked to fly flags from the windows of their homes in recognition of the anniversary.

Members of Ainsdale Civic Society want people in the village to put up Union flags from buildings to honour the conflict’s fallen.

Joan Major, a member of the Ainsdale society, said: “We love ‘flying the flag’ in Ainsdale Village and recently we came across an old ‘Sefton News’ newspaper item from November 16, 1918 which tells of how almost every home in Ainsdale was flying a flag to celebrate the end of the war.

“We thought, wouldn’t it be wonderful if all our residents emulated their forebears by flying a Union Flag from their window this November to recognise the centenary Remembrance Day which is on Sunday, November 11.

“You don’t need a flagpole, just hang it from a window.

Ainsdale Civic Society want residents to hang flags to mark the occasion

“It would be a lovely way of recognising the sacrifices made by the few for the many in both world wars and other conflicts.”

Meanwhile, bell-ringers will perform after Remembrance Day services at Emmanuel Church, Southport, Crossens Church and Halsall Church to commemorate Armistice Day on Sunday, November 11.

Christine Hollingsworth, bellringer at Emmanuel Church said: “During the First World War all church bells were silenced. Once the Armistice was signed it was the signal for church bells throughout the land to ring out and celebrate the

ea

good news to the people of Britain.

“There was no BBC, no internet, no social media - just the glorious sound of the church bells spreading the good news, from their towers, of the end of the hostilities and peace in our time.

“As part of the Remembrance services on November 11, church bells will once again ring out throughout the country in celebration of the end of the conflict - just like they did 100 years ago.

“Wherever you are on Remembrance Sunday, listen out for church bells ringing near you, and imagine how people would have felt 100 years ago hearing them for the first time in four years - and what it meant.”

Researcher Clive Harris from Hightown, has spent the last five years researching all the names on Hightown Village War Memorial and has researched where they were born, lived, worked, fought and died.

An exhibition of his efforts will take place at St Stephen’s Church Hall in Hightown from 10am to 4pm on Saturday, November 10 and noon to 4pm on Sunday, November 11.

WANT TO KNOW WHAT OUR READERS THINK? See this week’s letters on page 16

SOUTHPORT and Ormskirk NHS Trust has refuted claims that patients are being made to wait longer than national targets for bowel screening tests – and has instead suggested that those who waited more than six weeks ‘chose to do so’.

Last week, the Champion revealed how new figures released by NHS England showed the trust had breached national waiting time targets for potentially life-saving tests to diagnose bowel cancer.

Under NHS rules patients should wait no more than six weeks for a colonoscopy or flexi-sigmoidoscopy, both of which detect the UK’s second biggest cancer early on when it is easier to treat, giving patients a greater chance of

survival. The tests use a camera on a thin, flexible cable to look at different parts of the bowel and detect cancer at the earliest stages and remove pre-cancerous

growths, known as polyps.

Figures for Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust, show 113 patients went on a waiting list for a colonoscopy, while 5.3% of those waited six weeks or more. Meanwhile, for flexisigmoidoscopy, 60 patients were on a waiting list, 3.3% of which were waiting more than 6 weeks.

But Elaine Deeming, lead cancer nurse at the trust, told the Champion: “GPs referred 1,617 patients to the trust with a suspected bowel cancer in the last full year.

One-in-20 of such patients will receive a cancer diagnosis.

“The small number of patients waiting more than six weeks for a diagnostic test have usually made the choice to do so themselves.”

Residents urged to use their local pharmacist RESIDENTS are being reminded they can get ‘free, fast and expert advice’ from their local pharmacist - and help the NHS through it’s most difficult time of the year as winter approaches.

Healthwatch Sefton and the two NHS clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) say pharmacists can offer expert advice on minor illnesses and ailments and should be a first port of call for conditions like coughs, colds, aches and pains.

They can recommend the best over-the-counter remedy to start treating symptoms without the need for an appointment. In addition, some pharmacies also offer the ‘Care at the Chemist’ scheme which is intended to improve access for patients suffering from minor ailments to the medicines they need without seeing see a GP. O 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.

Formby set to remember 100 years since World War One was ended with series of talks to be held

By Danielle Thompson

OUR TOP 3 DESTINATIONS IN LATIN AMERICA PERU

A SERIES of free talks are being held to show that 'Formby Remembers' as the centenary of the end of the First World War approaches.

The Formby Civic Society, Formby Parish Council, Little Altcar Parish Council, Formby Pool Trust and the Formby Business and Community Partnership have teamed up to hold the talks to remember the contributions of people from all areas of the small rural community that was Formby at that time.

Tony Pawson and John Phillips' talk, Formby Folk in World War One will be given at 7.30pm on Thursday, November 8 at the Ravenmeols Community Centre, Park Lane, Formby and again at 2pm on Tuesday, November 13 at Formby Library, when booking is required.

The talks will be one of many ways that the centenary of the end of World War One has been marked around the country

Formby Methodist Church on Elbow Lane. Alastair Gillies will present his talk, World War I – Some Personal Reflections in Words and Music at 7.30pm on Wednesday, November 14, also at Formby Methodist Church.

John Phillips, the chairperson of Formby Civic Society said: “We will think about the effects on everyday life and on the families who saw loved ones leave home to fight on land and sea or join services at home and abroad in nursing or other forms of support – and we will turn our thoughts to those who

had to stay at home to work and carry on life as best they could whilst praying for the safe return of those loved ones.

“This was a small community in wartime. Many troops were sent to Formby for training and spent time here in billets and camps.

There was a strong local link with the King’s (Liverpool) Regiment, and we will look at that. We will remember how lives changed, the impact of new laws and regulations and the need to preserve food and drink supplies through rationing.”

Open air ice rink will be centre stage of ‘festive wonderland’ at Town Hall Gardens

Great Coffee, Great Food, Great Conversation within warm comfortable surroundings Breakfast Menu ( served until 12 noon )

by Danielle Thompson

THE POPULAR open air ice rink which was such a success last year in Southport, is returning to the Town Hall Gardens this December.

The area will be transformed into a festive wonderland with the ice rink surrounded by an array of Christmas chalets.

Running from December 7 to January 5, the skating arena will compliment a series of Christmas-themed events and displays as part of a joint campaign by Sefton Council and Southport BID. Cllr Marion Atkinson, Sefton Council’s cabinet member for regeneration and skills, said: “We are incredibly excited for the open air ice rink and winter wonderland. Thousands of families visit Southport and Sefton throughout the festive period to experience our fantastic food, drink and shopping offers and we know the wonderland will prove to be a massive hit, bringing more people than ever to the town.

Stanley High School donates £250 to children’s hospice

Second rosette for hotel

STAFF and pupils from the Meols Rotary Interact Group at Stanley High School have boosted a children’s hospice funds by £250.

Six students were among a party who visited Derian House Childrens Hospice in Chorley to present them with the donation.

Derian House provides respite and palliative care for children with life-limiting conditions and this year have celebrated 25 years of dedicated service to families in the North West.

Head Neil Moore said: “I am delighted that we could support such a worthwhile cause. It was a very informative and at times moving visit for the students to see what wonderful work they do for patients and their families.

THE AA has awarded the Vincent Hotel a second rosette for ‘exceptionally high standards in culinary excellence’.

Inspectors acting on behalf of the AA marked the Lord Street hotel as standing out among businesses in the North Students from Meols Rotary Interact Group

West and stated that guests can dine ‘with confidence and a sense of anticipation'’ at its V Cafe and Sushi Bar. General manager Andi Mosson said: “We are thrilled to have received such a glowing report from the AA following

their recent visit and inspection. Our kitchen and restaurant teams work tirelessly to ensure all our guests receive a memorable meal and leave extremely satisfied. So this award is testament to their hard work and passion.”

SOUTHPORT Hospital NHS trust risks ‘catastrophic failures’ because vital repair works are piling up.

New figures, say the Labour group, reveal that the trust’s repair bill backlog for unaddressed high or significant risk work now stands at £2,154,600 - a near 100% increase during a three year period from the previous £1,081,100.

The Labour group’s claims were put to the trust by the Champion.

Therese Patten, deputy chief executive at the trust told us: “We constantly inspect, risk assess and invest in our build-

ings to ensure they are safe for patients and staff.

“There will always be improvements needed when managing large hospital buildings. These change from year to year and we address them in order of priority.

“Some investments are high profile such as the £1.25m upgrade of A&E at Southport Hospital which will be completed shortly before Christmas. We also spend significant sums on ‘behind the scenes’ improvements such as £100,000 recently ensuring sewage is safely disposed of.”

City should be ashamed of Freedom of speech is a depressing Victoria Station pillar of our democracy If you travel from Southport to Manchester by train almost all services use the dreary and inadequate Manchester Victoria station.

The major refurbishment which was completed three years ago much improved the Metrolink platforms and the concourse area. However platforms 4, 5 and 6, are an absolute disgrace as they are dark, dirty and dingy.

The footbridge glass walls are stained with oil film from exhaust fumes; the fume extractors do not seem to work very well; the lifts are slow, poorly placed and not well signposted.

The amount of seating especially on platform 6 is woefully inadequate; station announcements are usually drowned out by diesel noise and platform changes are often announced verbally by platform staff as screens lag behind.

Also, there are insufficient information screens on the main footbridge, one at the head of each platform access is essential.

For a station the size and importance of Victoria there are no escalators to serve platforms 4, 5 and 6. There are two sets of steps from the platform 3 circulating area to

the footbridge -surely one of these should have incorporated an escalator?

There are no toilets after passing through the ticket barriers, nor refreshment facilities. What, with having to endure the timetable changes since May, disruption, cancellations etc passengers deserve much better when using Manchester Victoria station because it’s extremely depressing and inadequate and Network Rail and Manchester City Council should be totally ashamed of it.

Jeff Carter, Southport

Correspondent ‘John Lee (October 17) has missed the boat.

Even the ardent Brexit advocates on the right of the Conservative Party have stopped talking about ‘immense opportunities’ outside the EU, as they all recognise that this was a fantasy of their own making, long since discredited.

Claiming that a further vote would be ‘undemocratic’ is shameful. Even David Davis is quoted as saying ‘if a democracy cannot change its mind, it ceases to be a democracy’.

Freedom of speech is a pillar of our democracy, but downright lies must be called out. Shockingly, a

PICTURE of the week

public official - a councillor no less - who should know better (Terry Jones, Champion, October 3) stating there was a choice to ‘stay under the control of the EU, but many voted to return to a sovereign nation’.

For the record, no EU member state is ‘under the control’ of the EU, and the UK retained sovereignty. A lie repeated is still a lie.

The Champion of September 19 included a statement by ‘ Marc Stanton’ that Brexit has been started and cannot be stopped. Sorry, not true. Look it up - Lord Kerr who wrote Article 50 has said as much.

As it has now become glaringly

Giant smoke breathing dragons soared above Chapel Street to enthrall Saturday shoppers and children alike when the town hosted a four-day Halloween Festival of fun staged by Southport BID. Picture by Martyn Snape.

Let down by a conman who called at my house Recently, a man called on me who said he had taken a look at my roof and spotted that the tiles were loose.

I am from Ireland and so was he, so I felt an affinity with him. He quoted me £450 for the work but I only had £330 which he accepted.

Unfortunately, I don’t think he actually did any of the work.

I feel so stupid.

He gave me areceipt from a valid firm but when I rang them they had never heard of this man - it had the date on it and his name.

The bill stated he had refelted my roof, made repairs

where necessary and re-pointed the gable ends. I got a reputable firm out and they told me none of these things had been done and that not much appeared to have been done at all.

Never, ever, again will I accept an offer of work from someone who comes calling on me.

If you are worried about your roof, get a reputable firm out who wont ask you to stump up hundreds in cash on the first day.

I’m in my 70s and feel naive and furious. ‘ Let Down,’ Southport

Speed cameras on the A565 are nothing more than a source of revenue The Champion recently published details of the number of drivers caught by the average speed cameras on the A565 between Banks and Tarleton.

These cameras were installed on the pretext of improving road safety.

Earlier this month, there was yet another nasty accident at the Moss Hey Lane junction, Mere Brow. This was the fourth or fifth collision there (of which I am aware) since the installation of the cameras.

I would be interested to see the detailed accident statistics before and after the cameras were installed, as I cannot believe for one moment that there has been any

demonstrable improvement in road safety.

For some reason, that junction has always been an accident blackspot and making a lengthy section of dual carriageway subject to average speed checks was never going to solve the problem.

There are any number of other locations (especially single carriageway roads) where average speed cameras would have a far greater effect on road safety.

In their present location, these cameras are nothing more than a source of revenue.

J. Graham, Tarleton

obvious that this government could not negotiate its way out of a paper bag, let alone a beneficial trading arrangement, and leaving the EU under any circumstances will only result in worse health care, higher food prices (and lower standards), fewer jobs and so on, it is time to rethink this whole looming disaster.

You will no doubt have (Brexit supporters) come forward, but all their arguments have already been debunked.

What do they have to fear from a new vote? The truth? Telling, isn’t it.

Tim Baker, Formby

Undemocratic to deny people a second vote Now that we are nearing the end of the lengthy national debate over the UK’s membership of the EU and the country is poised at the cliff edge, it has become overwhelmingly obvious to everyone who considers the issue rationally that the only correct way forward is via a referendum on any proposed deal.

To deny the people a veto on such a fundamental change to their well being and way of life would be undemocratic in the extreme and might well lead to division and strife for decades to come.

If it was right to allow the electorate a vote on the basis of the ill informed rhetoric that passed for a

national debate two years ago then surely it must be right to allow a further and more considered vote now that the facts of the case have become clear.

The campaign to take us out of the union that has maintained peace and prosperity in Western Europe over the past quarter century has become a shambolic farce.

Parliament has a duty to ensure that the people have the final say. We must hope that our politicians now do the right thing and we must punished them severely at the ballot box if they fail to do so.

Trevor Womack, Formby

Halloween costumes are causing distress to mental health patients, claims NHS provider

by Danielle Thompson A MENTAL health service provider claims Halloween costumes are undermining serious conditions and causing offence to patients.

North West Boroughs Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust claims fancy dress outfits described as “mental patient costumes” and “psycho ward costumes” can cause distress to people going through serious issues.

In recent years, leading supermarkets have come under fire for selling Halloween costumes which caused offence.

Last week, a group of students from John Moores University had to apologise after they went on a night out dressed up as homeless people.

It caused uproar after images appeared on social media showing the group wearing ripped clothing, dirt on their faces and wearing signs asking for spare change.

Trustees wanted to help charities

A CHARITY support organisation in the borough is appealing for volunteers to become trustees of good causes.

Sefton CVS wants to find new charity trustees who would be tasked with volunteering their time to make vital decisions about the organisation’s work and future plans.

There will be two events in November to help people find out more about what is involved.

The first of these events will be held at Southport Community Centre, on Norwood Road, from 6pm to 7.30pm on Monday, November 12.

The second event will be held at the

same time the following day, Tuesday, November 13, at Sefton CVS’s HQ at Burlington House, on Crosby Road North, in Waterloo.

CVS Senior Citizenship and Volunteering Officer, Mike Howlett, says it is important to raise awareness of the vital work that trustees do, especially this year which has been designated as Sefton Council’s Year of the Volunteer.

Mr Howlett explained: “Trustees play a key role in the running of charity and community organisations in Sefton, and therefore make a huge impact on the people that these groups support, who are often some

of the most vulnerable members of our community.

“We are regularly contacted by organisations looking for trustees, so there is always a need for volunteers who have the passion, experience and skills to help a charity to develop.”

Mr Howlett added that enthusiasm and commitment are important assets for all trustees, but specific skills that charities are seeking include expertise in management, employment law, staff supervision, data analysis and marketing.

Other in-demand skills include finance, project management, research,

volunteer management and problem solving.

Maggi Aslet, CVS Area Development Officer, added: “These events are a great opportunity to find out about the role of a trustee, and also the positive impact trustees have on the organisations they serve.

“Although there won’t be any commitment to get involved, people who attend may just find the ideal organisation to link up with.”

Places at the two events are limited so booking is essential. To reserve a place ring Sefton CVS on 0151 920 0726 or email info@volunteeringsefton.org.uk.

MILITARY veterans enjoyed a trial flight and a day out at RAF Woodvale as part of a charity initiative.

Help for Heroes veterans Mark Murrey, Peter Wilde, Daniel Walker, Malcolm Brammall, John Brady and Stuart Sephton joined instructors JJ Starface and Nic Glover for a flying lesson courtesy of Aerobility, a charity founded in 1993 to offer all disabled people the opportunity to fly an aeroplane.

Aerobility provides ‘experience of a lifetime’ trial flying lessons for as many terminally ill and disabled people as possible every

year, and subsidises flying days for other disability charities. It also provides at-cost instruction and qualification flight training to disabled people.

Help for Heroes is a British charity launched in 2007 to help provide better facilities for British servicemen and women who have been wounded or injured in the line of duty.

Alex Krol, from Formby, who is one of the organisers, said: “It was one of the first of many days like this that we hope to hold at RAF Woodvale.

“The charity is based down south but its north west branch is

in Liverpool and we hope to soon expand out and make RAF Woodvale a new base.

“Anyone with disabilities, not just the military community, and all ages, are more than welcome to get in touch so we can help them to explore the skies!

“We also do different things such as providing a kids’ group, a 10 week programme at fire stations, and learn about the role of a control tower, to name a few.

“We are now looking for sponsors so if you think that you could help, or want to join, please email me at krolly99@hotmail.co.uk.”

School’s odd week of activities!

Norwich and Milan have more in common than you might think AS you read this I should just about be back home after my latest exploits on the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads in my cruiser Manxman.

But I don’t intend to regale you once again about the wonders of Norfolk or what tribulations I have had to face (though I just might next week).

I want to turn my attention to others who like to be afloat on the inland waterways - in particular Timothy West and Prunella Scales.

I've followed them on their canal cruises with great interest, helped by the fact their voyaging included the warts and all bits so often left out of such programmes.

Now they have begun to take to the waterways of the world - largely as passengers or more correctly holiday makers with others doing the actual boating.

Having just watched their most recent one though, I must admit to liking it better.

After all, Prunella is slowly losing her memory, and Timothy isn't getting any younger himself.

The result is that I'm finding their revamped Great Canal Journeys much more palatable.

Their delight in what they see is palpable, and while, like any other tourist show they have access to people and places that us lesser mortals would not, they obviously charm all those they meet and, I think, leave a little happiness behind them.

I would indeed be proud if I thought I could ever do that.

Back to business though.

In the last programme I watched the couple were journeying down what is billed as ‘Europe's oldest working canal’ which ventures into the heart of Milan.

Prunella and Timothy commented on the new flats and shops and bars that now stand beside the canal, where bustling warehouses and factories once stood with the canal being their gateway to the world.

And do you know, the scene looked almost an exact replica of the River Wensum as it passes through the city of Norwich!

I mean, it really, really does.

Except for one enormous difference.

Our hosts commented on the almost non-existence of any boat traffic apart from their own.

We were shown a canoe and a couple of rowing skiffs - and otherwise just a stretch of empty water.

What a howling shame!

In Norwich there is a plethora of pleasure craft (including the canoes and rowing boats) and I wonder why in the world the Italians don't make more leisure use of the wonderful waterway they possess.

Mind you, there was one other feature of Milan that echoed that in Norwich.

Fine new leisure building where once there was commerce - bars, shops, hotels. But though the canal (in Milan) or the river at Wensum in Norwich passed within yards of folk obviously enjoying the facilities, there appeared to be few, if any, public moorings available so people on a boat could join them.

In Norwich I reckon this is a ploy to ensure anyone on the river who wishes actually to visit their fine city has, perforce, to continue on to the (council run) yacht station - and pay mooring fees.

Perhaps that is what deters boatists from visiting Milan too - though I doubt it. There is simply an almost total lack of pleasure craft using the canal at all. Very odd.

I am old enough to remember when quite large, seagoing trading vessels regularly sailed up the River Yare from Great Yarmouth to the Wensum in Norwich to the famous Colman’s mustard factory.

Now those boats did provide something for cruiser skippers to think about if you met one on your holiday - get too close and the suction created could stick you to their seemingly enormous sides!

That might have made excellent TV though.

On Mellow Yellow day, pupils wore the colour and spoke about their emotions in order to raise awareness of mental well-being

more peculiar as the week progressed! “Wednesday was Mellow Yellow day when the children accessorised their school uniform with yellow items of clothing and discussed their emotions.

“The next day Year 2 were shocked when a fire engine arrived and the crew proceeded to light a fire in the playground. Fortunately they were very well-equipped to put it out and the children were able to hold the hose pipes and climb on the rig. The next generation of firefighters have been born!

“Then the week ended with all the pupils wearing odd socks to raise money for CAFOD. Each child brought in 50p and the school was pleased to be able to send over £300 to CAFOD.”

PUPILS at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School in Birkdale enjoyed a visit from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service.

The youngsters were shown how fire fighting equipment works and how to extinguish a blaze with a live demonstration in the playground.

Youngsters at the school also enjoyed ‘Mellow Yellow Day’ when they all wore the colour yellow and spoke about their emotions in order to raise awareness of mental wellbeing.

During a busy week of activities, an ‘Odd Socks Day’ raised £300 for CAFOD, the Catholic international development charity which aims to help fight poverty.

boosted by £7.5m Big Lottery funding YOUTH employment prospects in Sefton have been boosted by a £7.5million fund secured to help young people find jobs.

Talent Match Liverpool City Region, led by Merseyside Youth Association, has been awarded £3,001,146 by the National Lottery to help those aged between 18-24 find work.

This has been further boosted by a match funding agreement which has seen £4,529,458 released by the European Social Fund Youth Employment Initiative.

The money will support over 2,000 young people, aged 18-24 years, in the most deprived wards in the city region across

Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens, Halton, Knowsley, and the Wirral to tackle multiple barriers to employment.

These barriers may include mental health issues, disabilities, homelessness, ex-offenders, young parents and low selfesteem.

The aim is that 30% of participants will move into employment, with 15% securing sustained employment. Ultimately, support will be extended to a wider age range of 16-29 years.

Gill Bainbridge from Talent Match Liverpool City Region said: “Merseyside Youth Association is proud to be one of the

three programmes nationally to be awarded sustainability funding. This additional funding will enable us support complex and vulnerable young people make real changes in their lives and equip them with the skills and behaviours our region needs to grow and develop.”

Scott Hignett, head of funding for Talent Match at the Big Lottery Fund said: “Along with the match funding they have secured, this money from National Lottery players will continue to support young people in the Liverpool city region and ensure learning, partnerships and impact made in the area is broadened and strengthened.”

Keep an eye out for hedgehogs in run-up to bonfire night AN international wildlife charity is urging Sefton residents to be extra careful to help keep hedgehogs safe in the run-up to Bonfire Night (November 5).

Born Free’s Tarnya Knight said that at the end of October, the prickly animals start looking for a place to

hibernate and a pile of dry leaves in the garden or an unlit bonfire are attractive places for a sleepy hedgehog looking for somewhere to build its nest.

She said: “Hedgehog populations are in decline in the UK, so it’s important to be vigilant at this time of

year and protect these amazing creatures.

Hedgehogs can die or suffer awful injuries through contact with bonfires, so we’re asking people to take some simple precau-

tions to avoid causing them any harm.”

Among her tips for a hedgehog-friendly bonfire are: build your bonfire on the day it will be lit; choose clear ground, never on

top of a pile of leaves; if you are unable to build the fire on the day of lighting, use a broom handle to check the bonfire by gently lifting section by section and using a

torch to look and listen for hedgehogs.

If you do find a hedgehog in your unlit bonfire, place it in a box with some leaves or shredded paper, with some

water and meaty cat or dog food, and place it in a shed where it can be left in the quiet until the fireworks have finished and the bonfire dampened down.

Metro mayor opens door for new businesses to come to city region Report by Tom Martin METRO mayor Steve Rotheram has revealed plans to attract more investment to the city region – which includes Sefton - by creating a ‘point of access’ for those wanting to do business.

A ‘One Front Door’ approach will create a single, complementary team to act as a place marketing and inward investment focal point for the whole of the Liverpool City Region.

The team will help potential investors understand the city region, provide high quality data and information and support the efforts of existing local authorities and major institutions.

Mr Rotheram said: “When I was elected, I promised to attract more investment and major business relocations through a single, properly resourced agency for the benefit of every borough, every community, every person in our city region.

“We know that, when we work together as six boroughs, we are significantly more attractive to investors.

This concept is part of a more collaborative approach that recognises that, for example, bringing jobs to Knowsley can benefit those in St Helens and Halton, and investing in Metro mayor skills in Sefton can Steve Rotheram benefit people in Wirral and Liverpool.

“This new agency will work with all of our partners to add co-ordination, capacity and expertise, to build on the existing good work, and ultimately benefit everyone in our city region, by helping to build a bigger and better economy that works for us all.”

The new agency will work by co-ordinating existing resources, engaging with local authority teams, as well as the private and third sectors, account managing the investment process, and commissioning place marketing activities.

The approach has been developed following a review by the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority ’s Investment Team and the Local Enterprise Partnership.

It will contribute to the Liverpool City Region’s wider growth targets of creating 5,000 new jobs, 800 new businesses, and growing the economy by £1 billion, every year.

These services will be delivered by a small core team, overseen by a mixed, public-private investment board.

The One Front Door team is designed to increase the number of investment enquiries overall and to improve the chances of those enquiries becoming new investors.

WOODVALE and Ainsdale Community Association has been awarded £1,250 by Merseyside Police – which has been raised from the sale of stolen goods!

The Police Property Act (PPA) Fund raises money through the sale of unclaimed stolen goods or property recovered by officers that cannot be returned to its owners.

A total of 24 projects across Merseyside will take a share of the funding pot to be used so they can reach out and support even more people over the Halloween and Bonfire Night period.

The successful organisations from this round of funding will run a host of projects which will complement.

Merseyside Police and Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service’s Operation Banger plans with the aim of keeping thousands of young people engaged in safe and supervised activities.

One of the causes is Woodvale and Ainsdale Community Association, which will use the money to help 45 young people through different activities, including a mountain bike day and rock climbing.

Merseyside’s Police Commissioner Jane Kennedy said: “By funding these youth projects across Merseyside, my aim is to help thousands of young people enjoy the festivities in a safe and enjoyable way at organised and well managed events. This will help to ensure they don’t get involved in any activities that could either put themselves or others in harm’s way. It could also prevent them from getting involved with behaviour that they may come to regret in the future.

“It will also help to relieve the strain on our emergency services during this critical period.

“For this year’s successful organ-

isations, even a small cash boost can make a huge difference and will enable them to run some fantastic grassroots projects which really engage with young people’s imaginations while keeping them safe.”

Davina Suthren, the Community Development Manager at Woodvale and Ainsadale Community Association said: “We would like to thank Merseyside Police for this funding. In addition to planned activities we have asix week Bike Maintenance course starting on 31 October for local young people aged 12-19. This is a great opportunity for them to learn new skills in a friendly safe environment.”

Haunted afternoon tea provides a spooktacular treat for residents!

Different characters put on a performance for youngsters

Town taken over by ghosts and ghouls!

Report by Danielle Thompson SPOOKY sightings were spotted across Southport as Halloween was celebrated across the town.

Southport BID’s fourth annual Halloween celebration ran from Thursday, October 25 to Sunday October 28, centred around a giant maze in the Town Hall Gardens.

Magical giant dragon puppets that perform ‘stunning’ routines to music as they breathe smoke made their way along Chapel Street on Saturday, where there was also an afternoon of pop-up circus performances, all set to the music of The Greatest Showman.

There was also a fun visit from the Treants - lumbering, mythical trees which come to life and wandered down Chapel Street, while Wesley Street’s annual Scarecrow Festival also took place on Saturday. There was also trick or treating, ghost hunts and pumpkin trails.

Meanwhile, carers from across Sefton

A spooky pirate ship and crew sailed into Chapel Street!

were rewarded for their hard work with a free Halloween party being put on for them at Mecca Bingo in Southport on Saturday, October 27.

Dubbed Care O’Clock – as it coincided with the clocks rolling back an hour -

the party aimed to highlight how little time unpaid carers have for themselves and provides them with an extra free hour thanks to the clock’s change.

The Southport Mecca club created the event as part of its charity partnership with Carers Trust, which works to support unpaid carers across the UK. As well as these activities, staff at Southport Pleasureland held Halloween Festival from Thursday to Sunday when the park was decorated with spooky adornments including a ‘sea of pumpkins’ as well as scary characters walking around the park and rides were open.

They are also holding a two-day ‘Day of the Dead’ themed festival on Saturday, November 3 and Sunday, November 4.

It will feature two fireworks displays, a Mexican drum band, fire-eaters and stilt-walkers as well as Mexican street food stalls.

There will be free entry before 6pm (gates open from 1pm) and rides are open all day, with performances from 4pm.

STAFF at a specialist Southport day service for residents with dementia organised an afternoon tea with a difference to celebrate Halloween.

The team at Brookdale Resource Centre in Ainsdale, run by New Directions, decided a change to the normal menu was needed at the ghostly gathering.

So out went the traditional victoria sponges and profiteroles, and in came spooky cookies, edible spider cakes and blood-red beverages.

Meanwhile, service users were also able to enjoy some high-quality musical entertainment which was in the capable hands of popular resort keyboard supremo, John Taylor.

Brookdale Service Manager,

Keyboard player John Taylor with some of the service users and an unexpected guest!

Salwa Moustafa, said: “The Halloween event was all about providing fun for our service users, and thanks to the efforts of our staff they all had a really enjoyable time.”

INSTANT DECISION

HILLSIDE Golf Club in Southport has been named as the venue for the British Masters next May (9-12) and Tommy Fleetwood will host the event.

Fleetwood, 27, will follow in the footsteps of his fellow countrymen Ian Poulter, Luke Donald, Lee Westwood and Justin Rose who have all assumed similar roles at the event.

It was reported that the event had been under threat, but Fleetwood’s inclusion has ensured it won’t be dropped from the European Tour schedule for 2019.

The Southport golfer contributed four points to Europe’s remarkable 17 ½ - 10 ½ Ryder Cup triumph at Le Golf National last month. He is looking forward to the event at Hillside

Tommy Fleetwood

Golf Club in his native Merseyside.

The links is part of the stretch of terrain recognised as England’s Golf Coast.

Fleetwood said: “I can’t wait to host the British Masters in my home town. It will be such an honour and I’m so grateful to

have been asked.

“I’m extremely proud to follow the great ambassadors of our game who have hosted this tournament. I am very confident that Southport will make everyone welcome and the north west of England, and its love of golf, will embrace this opportunity and show support to us all.”

This will be the European Tour ’s first visit to Hillside since 1982 when Tony Jacklin won the Sun Alliance PGA Championship – the precursor to the BMW PGA Championship – beating his fellow Ryder Cup Captain Bernhard Langer in a play-off.

Hillside Golf Club also played host to the European Tour in its inaugural season in 1972, when Tommy Horton won the Piccadilly Medal, and the following year when former Tour chairman Neil Coles won the PGA Match Play title. It was also used by the R&A as a Final Qualifying venue for the Open Championship from 2014 to 2017.

Murder mystery is a ‘first rate’ piece of theatre Review by Ron Ellis

DIAL M For Murder by Frederick Knott Southport Dramatic Club Little Theatre, Southport STARTING life as a 1952 BBC TV production, Dial M for Murder became a theatre play before Alfred Hitchcock turned it into one of the most popular films of all time, with Ray Milland and Grace Kelly in the leading roles.

A classic play that has stood the test of time and grips the audience’s attention from start to finish, nowadays it is a regular on the amateur theatre scene.

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

led the investigation into the murder. With the precision of a chess grandmaster, his painstaking analysis of the crime and his devious plan to apprehend the killer is a tribute to Frederick Knott’s perfectly orchestrated script.

With heart-stopping thrills

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 men represent

27 YEARS EXPERIENCE

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 multi-talented 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.

Wendice finds out his wife, Margot (Adrienne Ledson) has been having an affair with his friend, the suave Max Halliday (Steve Pritchard) so he blackmails an old school friend to kill her, hoping to inherit her fortune.

Graeme Hunt cut a seedy figure as the hired assassin, Captain Lesgate, and the strangulation scene as he tightened the scarf around his victim’s neck accompanied by pounding sound effects was like a mini opera.

METROPOLITAN BOROUGH OF SEFTON TOWN POLICE CLAUSES ACT 1847 REMEMBRANCE DAY SERVICES SUNDAY 11th NOVEMBER 2018 In accordance with the powers vested in them by Section 21 of the Town Police Clauses Act, 1847, the Sefton Metropolitan Borough Council have made a ‘blanket’ Order for the control of roads in the Borough of Sefton, as required by the Chief Constable, for the Remembrance Day and Armistice Day Services that will be held at various locations throughout the Borough on Sunday 11th November 2018.

To allow the police to control traffic, and to assist parades taking place in connection with Remembrance Day and Armistice Day Services, it is proposed to give Merseyside Police powers to control traffic and temporarily close roads where necessary. A “blanket” Order covering the entire Borough is proposed.

In addition, signed road closures will be put in place to ensure the safety of the public at the Service to be held at Five Lamps on Crosby Road North in Waterloo from 09.00 hours to 13.00 hours, as follows: • Great George’s Road, Waterloo – between Waterloo Road and York Street.

• Walmer Road, Waterloo – between South View and Great George’s Road.

• Bramhall Road, Waterloo – its entire length • Waterloo Road, Waterloo – between Great George’s Road and Alexandra Road.

• Church Road, Waterloo – at its junction with Great Georges Road.

• Princes Street, Waterloo – at its junction with Great Georges Road.

Also, Lord Street, Southport between its junctions with Hill Street and Eastbank Street, London Street, Southport between its junctions with Lord Street and Hoghton Street and Nevill Street between its junctions with Lord Street and Stanley Street will be closed between 10.00 hours and 12.00 hours on Sunday 11 November 2018, to ensure the safety of the public during the service at The Monument in London Square.

The blanket Order is required from 09.00 hours to 14.00 hours on Sunday 11 November 2018, to enable Police to control traffic where necessary close to services throughout the rest of the Borough of Sefton.

Any person who is guilty of any breach of the Order or who shall not comply with the direction of any Police Constable acting in pursuance thereof will, for any such offence, be liable to the penalties thereunder.

ALTERNATIVE ROUTE Local diversion / road closure signs will be put in place and the traffic will be controlled by the police at all times.

Copies of the Order are available for inspection at the offices of Sefton Council in either Magdalen House, 30 Trinity Road, Bootle; or Town Hall Lord Street, Southport; during normal office hours.

Morgan has the character to be a great captain

Morgan Homson-Smith evades some close marking from Blyth on Saturday. Pictures by Julia Urwin.

Port pay price for missed chances Report by Ron Ellis

David Morgan in action against Darlington earlier this season.

DAVID Morgan has been appointed club captain following the departure of David Lynch.

The 24 year-old signed a contract extension to 2020 in July.

Morgan said: “It’s a huge privilege.

“I’ve been here just over a year now, so I think I’ve made my mark on the team and hopefully now I can lead by example.”

Manager Liam Watson said: “David has all the characterist-

ics to make a great captain.

“He is a consummate professional on and off the pitch”.

Morgan has made 38 (3) appearances, scoring twice.

It follows the transfer of David Lynch to fellow National League North side, Alfreton Town for an undisclosed fee.

Lynch made 34 appearances in the league and half-a-dozen in cup competitions.

As part of the agreement, the 25 year-old will not be able to feature for the Alfreton against Southport this season.

Tommy Fleetwood to host British Masters at Hillside HILLSIDE Golf Club in Southport has been named as the venue for the British Masters next May (9-12) and Tommy Fleetwood will host the event.

Fleetwood, 27, will follow in the footsteps of his fellow countrymen Ian Poulter, Luke Donald, Lee Westwood and Justin Rose who have all assumed similar roles at the event.

It was reported that the event had been under threat, but Fleetwood’s inclusion has ensured it won’t be dropped from the European Tour schedule for 2019.

See full story on Page 32.

Tommy Fleetwood

Southport 0 Blyth Spartans 1 SOUTHPORT were beaten by the only goal at the Merseyrail Community Stadium on Saturday, the eleventh consecutive league game they have failed to win at home in a period stretching back to last March.

This was a match featuring two teams lacking ability, confidence and passion.

The only goal came after a high cross swerving in direct from a corner against a blinding sun which hindered the goalkeeper, and the ball ended in the net.

It meant Blyth took the three points leaving Southport five points adrift from safety prior to Tuesday night’s game at home to Curzon Ashton, with a third of the season gone.

Ryan Astles and David Morgan both went close while Dion Charles missed the best chance of the afternoon at the start of the second half.

A corner from Blyth’s Robert Dale then deceived everyone to give the visitors the lead in the 52nd minute.

Jason Gilchrist came on in the 57th minute but when one on one with the keeper in the dying minutes he too missed the target and the match was lost.

The defeat highlights the simple but most significant factor in every football game and that is that only goals count.

How different the table would look were they able to convert those chances into goals.

Southport played brilliantly against York City but missed several simple chances and lost to a ‘worldie’ goal whereas they won the two cup-ties on either side of the York

Jason Gilchrist beats the keeper but his shot goes went past the post.

match, without playing as well but they got the ball into the net.

Port manager Liam Watson needs a strong midfielder who can guide the ball through to the forwards, and at least one forward capable of scoring goals on a regular basis.

He said: “We created numerous chances but didn’t take them.

“Ryan Astles had a great header saved, Dion Charles tried to be too clever and

Jason Gilchrist had only the keeper to beat but we are a soft touch conceding goals like the one we did.

“The players must realise we’re in a proper battle now so obviously the pressure mounts. ” On Saturday, The Yellows travel to second placed Kidderminster Harriers for what will be a difficult game before the first round FA Cup tie against Boreham Wood the following week.
