DRIVER’S MISSION TO WARN OTHERS AFTER PARKING FINE SHOCK Sylvia, 73, spent hours stopping other motorists at risk of being penalised for staying in poorly marked part of Central Square Report by Kenny Parker A MOTORIST was so shocked at being fined for leaving her car in an unmarked area of Central Square car park that she spent the next few days warning other drivers not to park there.

Sylvia Brennan, of Dodds Lane, Maghull was at a loss as to why she had been issued with a ticket for parking in the middle area of the square as there were no markings on the ground at all.

The community minded 73-year-old then took it upon herself to warn other drivers not to park at that spot.

She returned to the car park over several days and says she stopped around 30 motorists possibly receiving fines.

Sylvia eventually had her own parking ticket cancelled after she appealed to the parking regulator.

She also complained about the £60 fine (which rises to £100 if not paid within 14 days) to Euro Parking Services (EPS) which manages the car park on behalf of landlord London and Cambridge Properties (LCP).

Sylvia says: “There are no markings at all to say you can’t park there.

“I have been out on a mission every day this week moving cars because no one knows you can’t park there.

“It’s absolutely ridiculous.

“I have moved about 30 people and every

Established 40 Years

one I have moved says they are shocked because there is nothing there to say you can’t park there.

“If they don't want people to park there, they should be putting those yellow lines across.

“My husband Chris thinks I am going crazy because I am going out every day moving people, but it’s not fair. The fine is £60 and people have to work hard for their money.”

Another motorist, Anthony McGlinchie, also 73, from Liverpool Road, Lydiate, contacted the Champion after finding himself with a ticket for parking in the same area. He said: “There are no restrictions to say you can not park there.”

EPS did not respond to a request for comment. However, the International Parking Community (IPC), which regulates EPS, contacted the parking company following which both Sylvia’s and Anthony’s parking penalties were cancelled.

IPC boss Will Hurley also expressed concern about a photo that Champion photographer Martyn Snape took of the disabled parking bay which was poorly marked.

He said that EPS and the landlord were now in discussions about the car park.

Mr Hurley emphasised that while parking operators have to follow guidelines, motorists also have an obligation to familiarise themselves with the car park rules.

He said: “We are looking to undertake more work to educate motorists about their responsibilities when parking their vehicle on private land.

“In the past there has been a lot of misleading information given to motorists which has confused the matter.

“We have undertaken a lot of work with Continued inside

Judicial Review into Rimrose Valley road tunnel option deferred Report by Tom Martin RIMROSE Valley campaigners will have to wait a little longer to find out if a Judicial Review against Highways England will be successful after judgement was deferred to another date by the High Court.

The Champion reported last week how campaigners from the Save Rimrose Valley Campaign protested outside Manchester Civil Justice Centre on Tuesday, October 23 while the case was heard inside.

The Judicial Review was called after Sefton Council challenged Highways England, who Rimrose Valley campaigners outside Manchester want to build a dual carriageway through Civil Justice Centre last week Rimrose Valley Country Park to create better “We appreciate Sefton Council bringing this case transport links between Switch Island and the Port to court, for standing up for the communities who of Liverpool. would be impacted by the plans proposed so far.

It was ‘like horror film’ as man chased his girlfriend and tried to strangle her heard a man challenging Robinson and she ran to some bushes but he followed and again had his hands around her throat.

Fortunately the police, alerted by her friend, arrived and he was arrested.

In her impact statement the blondehaired victim said, “The incident was absolutely terrifying. I believed I was going to die.

“It was like a horror film, where there was no way out.”

She said how she was worried about bumping into him in Ormskirk, where he works as a personal trainer, and she is also suffering from depression.

Miss Halliwell-Martin said she had just signed for a loan for kitchen alterations, partly because she was about to start her own business making cakes.

She has moved back in with her mum along with the couple’s pets and is struggling financially, she added.

Robinson, 32, who has no previous convictions, pleaded guilty to common assault and making threats to kill.

Michael Bagley, defending, said, “He is sorry and knows his behaviour is inexcusable. He has mental health issues but is now going for counselling. He knows how profoundly wrong it was.”

Mr Bagley said Robinson took two years out to care for his mum when she was dying with cancer and her death when he was 22 had a profound affect on him.

Recorder Presland sentenced Robinson to 18 months imprisonment suspended for two years and ordered him to attend a ‘building better relationships’ programme. She also imposed a restraining order.

“She was besotted with you and thought you were going to kill her. It was Jekyll and Hyde and came out of the blue.”

“It was a prolonged period of sustained aggression towards the woman you loved and who loved you....It would have been utterly terrifying to be genuinely in fear that the man she loved and set up home with might kill her on this night and was hunting her down.”

Report by Lynda Roughley A GYM instructor from Maghull repeatedly tried to strangle the woman he loved - in scenes reminiscent of a ‘horror film’ - after he came home very drunk.

Luke Robinson’s victim thought he was going to carry out his “out of the blue” chilling threats to kill her as he “hunted her down”, chasing her through their house and neighbouring gardens.

And now Anna Halliwell-Martin lives in fear of bumping into the man she had planned to spend the rest of her life with.

She choked back tears as she told Liverpool Crown Court how she had feared for her life and the emotional and financial impact on her life including being left with a £10,000 debt for a new kitchen in the home she no longer shares.

The judge ordered him to pay her £5,400 compensation.

Recorder Samantha Presland said the defendant has “abandonment issues” following the break-down of his parent’s marriage and his mum’s death “causing him to lash out at someone loving him.”

Kate Gaskell, prosecuting, told how the Luke Robinson couple had been together for a couple of She told him she was leaving “but he years though the last six months had been blocked the doorway… and grabbed her volatile.

They had been living together for a year around her neck lifting her head up and she and he had been diagnosed with depression could not breathe,” said Miss Gaskell.

“She was aware he practised martial arts two months before the incident.

On July 21 this year he was out drinking and knew how to hurt somebody and he was saying, ‘I’m going to kill you’.” and they started rowing via text message.

He let go of her but then grabbed hold of When he got back to their home in Boyers Avenue, he was very drunk and when his girl- her again in the bedroom before she manfriend asked where he had been he got angry aged to escape and went downstairs.

“In simple terms an average motorist must be aware that there are terms and conditions in place by the signage which the operator erects.

“The obligation then comes from

the motorist to read the signs and ensure they comply with them.”

A spokesman for LCP said that Euro Parking Services had held the contract to operate the car park since late 2016.

He added: “As the landlord, we have been reviewing a number of options to install improvements within the scheme and these are for the long-term maintenance and upgrading of the site.”

EVERTON FC say a “significant milestone” has been reached with the arrival of a public consultation into their plans to build a new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock – but some fans are questioning why it is taking so long.

The Blues want to move from Goodison Park and construct a new home at the north Liverpool dockland in what many hope will spark a huge regeneration for the area.

Last week the club announced a wide-scale consultation is set to get underway, to be called The People's Project, which will begin on Thursday, November 15 and last three weeks.

But spectical supporters have been having their say on social media and claim the process of building the stadium is taking too long.

Everton revealed their Bramley Moore plan in 2016 and they say a planning application won’t be submitted to Liverpool City Council until at least the second half of 2019.

The public consultation will ask supporters for their opinion on the new stadium, as well as how they think the legacy of Goodison Park can be preserved for the Walton community.

A second public consultation will then be held next summer, at which point the club will present the proposed design of the stadium and further details on Goodison Park.

Everton chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale, who was last week in New York City attending meetings with stadium architect Dan Meis, said: “This consultation marks a very significant moment as we progress with this project. We would like as many people as possible – and not just football fans – to take part and let us know their views.

“Our ambition is not just to create a new home for a very proud and historic football club but also a new landmark stadium, in an iconic setting, which will deliver huge regeneration benefits for the whole of the Liverpool City Region.

Bramley Moore Dock

“We have deep roots in L4 and are committed to building on the extensive investment we have already made in the area.

“We are preparing plans to redevelop the existing stadium site to create facilities which will benefit the whole community.

“Everton is committed to delivering an authentic football stadium which responds to Liverpool’s World Heritage Site designation. The plans we are developing will respect the historic features of the site and complement its surroundings.

“The rich history and connections between the old docker community and the city’s football family are inseparable.

“A move to the city’s North Docks will be very poignant for many of our supporters who will have had family members work there and will give them a chance to enjoy a part of cultural Liverpool that has not been open to the city for decades.”

The public consultation will see an exhibition about the proposals visit a range of locations in the Liverpool City Region, including Liverpool ONE and The Blue Base, on Salop Street, near Goodison Park for residents living in L4.

People will be able to complete a short survey at the exhibition or log the website: www.peoplesproject.co.uk/engagement.

Parents urged to get free Angela presented with flu vaccinations for children British Empire Medal for SEFTON parents who have young children are being urged to get a free flu vaccination for better protection against illnesses this winter.

Health workers across Merseyside have backed the NHS campaign to encourage parents to protect their two to three year olds from the flu and to take up the offer of the free vaccination at their GP practice.

Young children who get the flu have the same symptoms as adults; some can develop a very high fever or other

complications such as bronchitis or pneumonia, which may need hospital treatment.

For children, the flu vaccine is not an injection, just a quick nasal spray from a GP or practice nurse if they are aged two to three years old.

School children from reception class through to year 5 will get their nasal spray vaccination through their school.

NHS Director of Nursing, Hazel Richards said: “Flu can be horrible for children, it

can lead to serious health problems and they can also spread it around the whole family. The flu vaccine protects children, from serious complications that could develop if they were to get the flu.

“If your children are eligible for the flu vaccine, get them vaccinated and protect them. You will also be preventing the further spread of the flu virus to other relatives and friends who may be vulnerable, such as grandparents.”

services to girl guiding

A WOMAN from Crosby has been awarded the British Empire Medal for years of support and voluntary work with girl guides.

Angela Harding, 55, was presented with the prestigious award at Liverpool Town Hall on Wednesday, October 24 where she was joined by her family.

The British Empire Medal is awarded for “meritorious civil or military service worthy of recognition” by the British Monarchy.

Angela, who works as a health and safety worker in Bootle, was nominated for her work with girl guiding after she served as a County Commissioner for the north of Merseyside for five years until 2017.

But her affiliation with girl guides goes back to when she was only six years old, when she joined a local Brownies group at St Leonard's Church, in Bootle, in 1969.

She went on to join girl guides at 11 years old, and she has been involved ever since and is currently still a Leader at a local group in Bootle where she helps the current crop of young members.

Her proud sister, Pam Harding Angela receives her award at Liverpool Town Hall. said: “Angela was nominated for the award for services to girl guiding and nomin- was a plain brown envelope which said Her Majesty ’s service! ated by a co-worker.

Modern Approach Modern Solutions …to Conveyancing The revamp project at Rainbow Park has been welcomed by Councillors Marian Atkinson and Paula Murphy

Revamp on way for Rainbow Park Report by Henry James RAINBOW Park in Melling is getting a much needed refurbishment.

The work will include replacement of play equipment, new play surfacing and re-paining of fencing and equipment.

The funding has been allocated by Molyneux Labour councillors from the Section 106 money, which is paid by developers when they complete major projects in the area.

The revamp project was agreed following

requests from local residents for the park to be upgraded and to include more equipment for younger children.

Councillor Marion Atkinson said: “We have been approached by several mums, who like to use the park but have found the equipment unsuitable for little children and was showing a bit of wear and tear.”

Cllr Paula Murphy added: “With the limited funding available to the council, it is difficult to be able to undertake work like this. Having S106 money available has make this possible.”

It is hoped the work will be completed over the next few weeks.

St George’s Catholic Primary School.

Primary school plan to build extension block Report by Champion Reporter PROPOSALS have been put to the council to erect a single storey extension to the rear of St George’s Catholic Primary School on Dennett Close in Maghull.

The planning application to Sefton Council states that the school has 210 pupils

enrolled and has an under provision for reception age children in its existing building.

The proposed extension involves the construction of a single storey on the courtyard next to the school hall.

The application states that the proposal will be open plan and sufficient to alleviate the shortfall in the school.

It adds that the proposed is an essential enlargement to existing school facilities.

POLICE are appealing for information following the horrific dog attack in Netherton last week which left a Cockapoo puppy dead and its owner injured.

The Champion reported how one-year-old Bailey was killed by three bull terriers in Pinfold Woods and his owner, Julie Huyton, 38, was left needing plastic surgery treatment to an injured finger.

Merseyside Police, who have described the attack as ‘appalling’, have launched an investigation and hope to find two men who were with the bull terriers at the time of the attack. Both men are believed to be in their late 20s.

Inspector Susan Stribling of Merseyside Police, said: “This was an appalling attack which has tragically left a dog dead and a woman requiring surgery. We are keen to speak to the men involved at the earliest possible opportunity, and any witnesses who may have seen the incident or these dogs in the park on previous occasions.

“I want to emphasise that anyone walking their dog in our local parks needs to be mindful of their dogs’ behaviour at all times and keep their pet on a lead if it is liable to be aggressive towards other park users.

“We will not tolerate irresponsible dog ownership on Merseyside and want to maintain all our parks as safe and welcoming places to be.”

The attack happened at around 6pm on Saturday, October 20 in the woodland area next to the Northern Perimeter Road.

Bailey's owner, Julie, described the two wanted men as aged in their late 20s and both had dark hair and average build.

Two of the bull terriers had black fur with white

Volunteer trustees wanted to play key role in charity and community groups in Sefton A CHARITY support organisation in Waterloo is appealing for volunteers to become trustees of good causes across the borough.

Sefton CVS want to find new charity trustees who would volunteer 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 this involves.

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

“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

ber 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, said: “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.

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 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.

Sean Cox

Reds and Blues unite to support injured fan Sean Cox Report by Tom Martin A FUNDRAISING appeal to help seriously injured Liverpool fan Sean Cox has reached more than 150,000 Euros – with the help of some famous faces from the Red and Blue halves of Merseyside.

An online donations page at GoFundMe was set-up called Support Sean to help raise money for the 53-year-old, from Ireland, after he was attacked by Roma fans outside Anfield and suffered a brain injury.

Among those who have donated are Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and Everton defender Seamus Coleman, who both donated 5,000 euros to the cause.

There were also bucket collections held outside the Reds stadium on Saturday, October 27 before Liverpool's Premier League match against Cardiff City.

The money raised from the campaign will be put towards Mr Cox's ongoing medical bills.

The GoFundMe page states: “Over the past number of months Sean has been taking small but important steps on a road to recovery. “His journey will be a long and difficult one and the focus will continue on ensuring the best possible care to maximise the potential in Sean’s recovery. “Sean has recently started a programme of rehabilitation in Dun Laoghaire and following this will continue to require ongoing and intensive long term care and support. “The reality is that the provision of this long term care and support for Sean will necessitate significant funding over many years.�

Last week, Mr Cox's wife, Martina Cox, revealed the full extent of his injuries in an interview on Irish television.

She said: “He can say ‘yes’ and ‘no’ and do the thumbs-up and he smiles and we talk to him - we know he recognises us.�

Earlier this month, Roma fan Filippo Lombardi, 21, was cleared of being part of a joint attack on Mr Cox but admitted violent disorder and was jailed for three years.

In August, another Roma fan Daniele Sciusco, 29, was jailed for two and a half years for the same offence of violent disorder.

Wheelie bin fire warning Arson attacks have doubles in three years 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.

on wheelie bins likely to increase in the next week during the run up to bonfire night itself, residents are being asked to be extra vigilant and keep their bins in safe areas.

Michael Buratti, arson team manager for the service said: “The risk of wheelie bins being targeted during the run up to Bonfire night has increased in recent years and the figures in Merseyside in 2017 reflect that.

“Incidents like this are the result of irresponsible and dangerous behaviour, putting both the lives of residents and the safety of their properties at risk.

“We would urge local residents to take care in helping to minimise the risk of their bins being targeted. Only put your bin out on the day of collection and bring it back in immediately. Store it in a safe area away from windows and doors if possible.”

Santa Dash to return THIS year’s 5k Santa Dash in Liverpool will take place on Sunday, December 2, starting at 9.30am from the Pier Head.

The route will then take Santas through the city centre, before crossing the finish line outside Liverpool Town Hall, on Dale Street.

So-called ‘revamp vision’ is not revitalising the Village

One Vision don’t care about bad tenants so long as they pay rent

Your article ‘Village Revamp Vision Taking Shape’ and the comments from St Modwen that it continues to “revitalise” the centre simply repeat the views of the developer and not the people of Crosby.

So we now have a new vets (remind me to get a pet) and a new medical aesthetics clinic.

In the process of this development we have lost a well-loved DIY shop and a number of smaller outlets.

The card shop merely moved across the road along with the betting shop.

I have been reading the many letters regarding One Vision Housing and wish to add to their voices.

My neighbour runs a motorbike, van and car repair business from home including the communal area.

The noise is horrendous, often late in the evening, likewise the litter.

One Vision said the neighbours can do what they want and told the bad tenants I was just a moaner - even though other neighbours complain!

I have been fobbed off many, many times and it seems One Vision are reluctant to do anything so long as they receive the rent.

There are thousands of genuine people who need social housing who would appreciate and

This does not revitalise the area although I am looking forward to seeing more dogs and cats around spending their money in the shops that are left.

I don’t think we should regard St Modwen as the ‘saviour of our shopping centre’ - nor should we thank them for their ‘vision’ and foresight.

Thomas Allan, Brighton Le Sands

PICTURE of the week

value the properties.

Why are bad tenants allowed to get away with causing misery and stress for decent, good people?

Why can't bad tenants be evicted quickly and the property given to good people on the waiting list?

Rules and laws always seem to be on the side of scallies.

As for my case, the MP was involved, a result was achieved proving I'm not a moaner and One Vision fob people off.

Unfair, Seaforth

Thank you from London for sending me my lost wallet!

I would like to tell you a story of how I lost my wallet on the Northern Road, Crosby on the Saturday, October 20 shortly before travelling back to London on the Sunday, October 21.

Someone has kindly picked it up and returned it via postage to my address in London!

I had a little amount of money, my bank card and provisional driving licence in the wallet and all was returned safely.

So I would just like to say thank you to the kind person who generously gave it back to me and left a note in the envelope explaining how they found it without leaving any name or contact details!

From Jack, to the kind person who gave me my wallet back!

Only in Liverpool!

Six foot high ‘Tommy ’ statues to be placed at Town Hall in honour of First World War victims ahead of Remembrance Day SIX foot tall soldier statues will be placed at Bootle Town Hall this Friday (November 2) ahead of the borough’s Remembrance services.

The figures will go on display as Sefton Council continue to mark the centenary commemorations for the end of the First World War. Created by the Remembered charity, the Tommy figures are designed to be a strik-

ing symbol to commemorate the fallen, educate future generations and heal those suffering from combat related PTSD. Cllr Trish Hardy, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member for Communities and Housing, said: “The Tommies we will have on display acts as a token of remembrance and helps build awareness of what we are doing to mark the centenary.

“The figures are based on a photograph

by Horace Nicholls, whose eldest son, George, died at Arras in 1917 at the age of 22 “At Sefton we are incredibly proud of what we are doing to mark this momentous anniversary, from our Beyond The War Memorials project to our support of the Royal British Legion's events calendar.

“I would encourage everyone to come down to either Bootle Town Hall or the

Atkinson from November 2 to see these breathtaking figures and pause to reflect on the events and impact of the 1914-18 conflict.”

Students give Legion a revamp

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.

Furniture EVENT

THE Royal British Legion in Litherland has been given a fresh lick of paint thanks to the hard work of volunteers.

The Orrell Road building, opposite St Philip’s Church, was last week given a new-look by students from Hugh Baird College.

Members of the Bootle college’s Prince's Trust Team 9 worked hard to give the Legion a much-needed revamp, much to the delight of staff.

The Prince’s Trust Team programme is a free 12-week course, that offers work experience, challenging community projects and an adventurous five-day, team building residential trip.

Youngsters enjoy the day at Crosby Lakeside and below: they take to the water and try not to fall in!

Children enjoy ‘hard-hitting’ day of activities at Lakeside YOUNGSTERS have been learning about road safety, arson awareness and water safety during a hard hitting day of activities at Crosby Lakeside Adventure Centre.

Children aged between 11-3 who are part of the LFC Foundation teamed up with Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service (MFRS) for the educational workshops.

Physical fitness and team building exercises - boxing, gladiator challenges, raft building and kayaking - were also introduced to the youngsters.

Tony Cosgrove, LFC Foundation project lead, said: “We have been running these

half-term camps alongside MFRS for a while now, and they are always a great success.

“We are able to engage with many young people through our weekly foot-

ball sessions, but we also encourage the participants to attend these alternative activities and educational workshops during the holidays.”

The LFC Foundation is the official charity of Liverpool Football Club and they mainly focus their outreach and support to north Liverpool, but do have links to the Sefton area.

The charity was formed in 2010 as a financially independent organisation to “harness the power and passion our fans and supporters have to improve the lives of others.”

Light up a Life appeal launched by hospice THIS year's Light up a Life appeal at St Joseph's Hospice is now underway in the build-up to the big day on Sunday, December 9.

Every year, locals are invited to sponsor a light on the hospice’s 25ft Christmas tree in memory of a loved one.

Julie McAdam, senior fundraiser at the hospice, said: “Light up a Life is a wonderful way to think about our family and friends at Christmas time, whether they are no longer with us or are just a long way away.

“If you or your family would like to dedicate a light to someone special on our Christmas tree, dedications can be made now by contacting our fundraising team or downloading a form from our website.

“We will also enter all dedications into our special Light up a Life dedication book as a permanent tribute.”

Dedications can be made now by downloading a form from www.jospice.org.uk. Forms are also available from our St Joseph’s Hospice shops.

Just the job! Youth employment prospects 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

Metro mayor opens door for new businesses to come to city region

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.

Keep an eye out for hedgehogs on Bonfire Night

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 skills in Sefton can benefit people in Wirral and Metro mayor Liverpool.

Steve Rotheram “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.

Report by Tom Martin SCOUSE singing group LMA Choir say they are proud to have represented Liverpool after they were eliminated from X Factor last weekend.

The singers, who were the first ever choir to compete in ITV’s talent show, were kicked off following a sing-off with contestant Brendan Murray.

Some of the local singers in the 14-person LMA Choir includes Sophie Ortt, from Maghull, Jenny Fairbrother and Sam Conlan, from Bootle, and Rachel Chambers, from Anfield.

X Factor judge Robbie Williams said he was “devastated” with the decision describing it as a “complete shock.”

He said: “ I didn’t see it coming, but I want to work with these guys. We will do something in the future.

That’s going to happen “ I’m going to miss my Scouse friends in the house.

They make my day happier being around them and

I am going to miss them.”.

Choir founder Stephanie added: “We are so grateful for this unbelievable adventure we’ve been on and thankful for everyone’s support throughout our X Factor journey.

“I am so proud of my LMA family and happy that we have shown the nation what LMA can do!

“We gave it our absolute all and I couldn’t be any prouder of these guys. There’s absolutely nothing I would change.

“They put their heart and souls into it and for that I am the proudest tutor right now. We have made friends for life during this experience and memories that will last a lifetime.”

LMA Principal Richard Wallace added: “It’s sad that their X Factor experience is now ended. But I’m confident this is a group of young performers who have a really bright future, and I for one can’t wait to see what they do next.”

There was better news for Bootle-born singer Anthony Russell, who has made it through to the next round of the show.

POLICE FEAR 300 OFFICERS COULD BE LOST IN PENSION PLAN PROPOSALS

{

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.”

INSTANT DECISION

MERSEYSIDE Police and Sefton Council are working together to help tackle modern slavery in the borough.

To mark National Anti-Slavery Day on Thursday, October 18, Deputy Police Commissioner Cllr Emily Spurrell united with representatives from Liverpool City Region’s five local authorities to sign the Charter against Modern Slavery aimed at ensuring that exploitation has no place in council supply chains.

The policy goes further than existing law and guidance and commits councils to proactively vet their own supply chain to ensure no instances of modern slavery are taking place.

It also encourages councils to ensure they challenge any abnormally low-cost tenders to ensure they do not rely upon a potential contractor practising modern slavery and refer on for investigation any contractors who cause concern.

Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner and Liverpool City Council Cllr Emily Spurrell, who is chair of Merseyside’s Modern Slavery network has led Councillors across Merseyside to

sign up to the Charter against Modern Slavery.

Cllr Spurrell said: “Slavery was abolished more than 180 years ago in this country. Yet we know it’s still happening today right across the UK and sadly in our own communities, here in Merseyside.

“Slavery’s hidden nature means it can be difficult to ascertain the extent of the problem, but we know the number of identified victims is continuing to rise.

“We also know it is an issue we all need to face.

“Local authorities have the ability to implement changes at a community level that can make a real difference.

“By taking this pledge, the councils in our region are showing just how seriously they take this issue and that they are the forefront of the fight against modern slavery.”

Cllr Trish Hardy, Sefton Council’s cabinet member for communities and housing, said: “It is vitally important that we all work together as a community to identify, raise awareness of the horrors of modern slavery.”

Anti-Slavery Day was created by the AntiSlavery Day Act 2010, a Private Members Bill which introduced a national day to raise awareness of the need to eradicate all forms of slavery, human trafficking and exploitation.

Four patients awarded medals for living with Type 1 Diabetes for combined total of 200 years Report by Henry James FOUR patients at Aintree University Hospital were awarded Alan Nabarro medals after collectively living with Type 1 Diabetes for more than 200 years.

The medal is given to people who have managed the condition for 50 years and is presented by the charity Diabetes UK. It is named after Alan Nabarro, who waged a life-long battle against discrimination of people with diabetes.

Following his diagnosis in 1922 he was given just six months to live, but due to the discovery of insulin went on to live for a further 55 years.

Joan Edwards, 79, from Gillmoss, Jill Whittaker, 50, from Aintree, Janet Jones, 56, from Southport, and Gillian Kinsella, 54, from Bootle, all have Type 1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes is an auto immune condition which leads to destruction of the insulin producing cells in the pancreas leading to raised blood glucose levels.

People with type 1 diabetes require insulin injections for the rest of their lives Jill, who was diagnosed in 1968, said: “I have had diabetes since I was six months old - it was a real struggle growing up with the condition “I once got into trouble at school when my teacher discovered I had hidden biscuits behind a classroom radiator.

“I was always short of energy and needed the sugar boost, but the other children and my teacher didn’t fully understand what I was going through.”

Public invited to CCG meeting LOCALS are invited to an NHS South Sefton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) meeting to be held tomorrow (Thursday, November 1).

The meeting, led by local doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals is a chance for people to learn more about the performance of health services in the area and future priorities.

Dr Craig Gillespie, local GP and acting chair of NHS South Sefton CCG, said: “We always encourage members of the local community to attend our governing body meet-

ings to stay up to date with the work we’re doing in the area.

The governing body meeting takes place at Merton House, Stanley Road in Bootle from 1pm.

Attendees may also be able to ask questions before the meeting formally starts. All governing body meeting papers are available from the CCG’s website ahead of each meeting.

To confirm attendance at the governing body meeting or for more information, please call 0151 317 8456.

Jill Whittaker, Joan Edwards, Gillian Kinsella and Janet Jones being awarded their Alan Nabarro medals at Aintree University Hospital.

Gillian has had diabetes since the age of four and explained how attitudes towards the condition have dramatically changed.

She said: “At the age of 15 I met with a Career Advisor and told them I would like to become a Physiotherapist.

“The advisor rubbished my career interest and told me to expect rejection because of my diabetes - I was incredibly upset.

“There was a lot of discrimination towards people with diabetes many years ago but thank goodness that has changed.

“My family and the staff at Aintree have been the perfect comfort blanket and helped me control my condition, not let it control me.”

Catherine Whitmore, diabetes specialist nurse at Aintree University Hospital, said: “All four of our medalists are proof that, with the right management, you can live a full and active life with diabetes.

“They are an inspiration to anyone struggling to overcome the impact of a diabetes diagnosis.

“The perception of the condition has changed dramatically from when our medalists were first diagnosed and I would like to congratulate them all on their achievement.”

The group were presented with their medals at a celebratory lunch held in Aintree’s Diabetes Centre, which was attended by their family and friends.

Katie becomes domestic abuse charity’s patron A DOMESTIC abuse charity which supports people across Liverpool and Sefton has a new patron, who knows exactly what it's like to be a victim of violence.

Centre 56, based in north Liverpool, has appointed Katie Walker into the role and she will now represent the charity after they described her as a “role model” Katie was the victim of domestic violence and after a vicious assault she needed reconstructive surgery to her face and had to endure a long time recovering both physically and mentally.

Her bravery and willingness to speak publicly about her experience led to her decision to open her own charity, called Katie Cares, to support other women who have been affected by domestic abuse.

The Champion reported how she even won a Pride of Britain award from ITV for her efforts.

Pat Roberts, Nursery and After School manager at Centre 56, said: “We are absolutely delighted that Katie is going to be a Centre 56 patron.

“Katie is a role model to other women who

Katie (left) with Pat Roberts

have been affected by domestic abuse. She has shown strength and resilience and has worked so hard to get where she is today.

“We hope this new partnership supports both Centre 56 and Katie Cares. We are local to each other, and hope that together we can help the many women and families who need our support”.

Katie said: “I am thrilled that Centre 56 has asked me to be a patron. Centre 56 has been around a long time and does amazing work supporting both children and families.

“I am honoured to call myself a patron and look forward to all the work we can do together ”.

Manfreds looking forward to city gig Report by Henry James PIONEERS of British Rhythm and Blues music, The Manfreds, return with a 2018 tour and special guest Georgie Fame.

Featuring a line-up consisting of original Manfred Mann singer Paul Jones and his 1966 replacement Mike d'Abo, (who each secured a string of hits with the band), along with founding members Mike Hugg and Tom McGuinness, The Manfreds reformed in 1991, with drummer Rob Townsend (best known for being the drummer in prog rock band Family), Marcus Cliffe and Simon Currie also joining.

They will be at the Liverpool Philharmonic this Thursday (November 1).

Mike d'Abo told the Champion what audiences can expect from the show: “Those who come to the show will be able to hear all the hits of The Manfreds and Georgie Fame. We are really thrilled to have Georgie Fame as our guest.

“We will be playing 5-4-3-2-1, Do Wah Diddy and Pretty Flamingo. We will be playing 20 hits and more. We want to play new songs but we have to balance that with the fact people will be coming to hear us play the hits. I performed at the Philharmonic hall earlier this year with the Sensational Sixties Experience. I must have played there six or eight times over the last 10 years.”

Since forming in 1962, Manfred Mann have secured their place in the history of British pop music, with timeless hits such as Do Wah Diddy, Pretty Flamingo, Sha La La, and of course, 5-4-3-2-

Matthew Kelly as WH Auden and David Yelland as Benjamin Britten Mike d'Abo,

1, providing the soundtrack to generations of fans.

As well as performing their most loved songs, the 60s luminaries will also perform tracks that brought them success as individual artists, such as the Mike d'Abo penned Handbags and Gladrags and the McGuinness Flint classic When I'm Dead and Gone.

Georgie Fame first shot into the charts as the founding member of Georgie Fame & the Blue Flames. He went on to achieve three UK Number One singles Yeh, Yeh, Get Away and The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde. With his much-loved blend of Jazz and Rhythm & Blues, Georgie Fame has consistently worked in the highest musical circles and has become an icon of the British music scene.

Emmerdale star appearing in new musical at Empire THE producers of the new show Nativity! The Musical, are pleased to announce the return of Emmerdale star Simon Lipkin as Mr Poppy after delighting critics and audiences in the show last year.

Television star Adam Thomas will play the role of The Hollywood Producer when the show comes to the Liverpool Empire from October 31 – November 4.

Scott Garnham will play Mr Maddens and Ashleigh Gray will play Jennifer Lore.

Joining them will be Andy Barke, Andy Brady, Jamie Chapman, Jemma Churchill, Gary Davis, Kade Ferraiolo, Ashleigh Graham, Helena Pipe and Oscar Conlon-Morrey.

Simon Lipkin played Nicky and Trekkie Monster in the original London cast of Avenue Q at the Noël Coward Theatre. His other West End credits include Guys and Dolls at the Phoenix Theatre, Lonny in the original London cast of Rock of Ages and Barlow in I Can’t Sing at the London Palladium.

Simon will also star in Nativity Rocks the fourth film in the Nativity series which is released in November.

Adam Thomas is best known for starring in ITV’s Emmerdale as Adam Barton, a role he has played since 2009. Adam previously starred in BBC one’s Waterloo Road where he played Donte Charles for three years. Nativity! The Musical marks Adam’s stage debut.

Scott Garnham’s previous theatre credits include the UK Tour of Billy Elliot The Musical and the West End productions of Les Misérables at the Queen’s Theatre and I Can’t Sing at the London Palladium.

Ashleigh Gray is most known for playing the leading role, Elphaba in Wicked in the West End and on UK Tour. Her other theatre credits include Vanities and Cool Rider.

The adult company are joined by the following children aged 9 – 12 from across the Midlands as the pupils of St Bernadette’s School: Ami Bakayoko, Evie Bennell-Low, Niamh Brady, Demi Delord, Joseph Duffy, Tommy Gallagher, Alexander Hogg, Kheiri Isaac-Osmani, Betsy Jiggins, Ben Lee, Marlie Olivia Love, Harry Martin, Joshua Millard-Lloyd,

Play provided ‘insightful look at lives of Auden and Britten’ Review by Henry James ALAN Bennett’s 2009 The Habit of Art about the fictional meeting between the poet WH Auden and the composer Benjamin Britten is currently on tour and was at the Liverpool Playhouse last week.

The show was a play rehearsal within a play and was set in the Oxford University living accommodation of WH Auden.

Auden was played by Matthew Kelly, who had stage presence, and obviously enjoyed portraying Auden’s grumpy demeanour.

The play got going when Auden was reunited with Britten (David Yelland) and the exchanges between the two of them were very well done.

Britten wanted to discuss his new work, and Auden mistakenly believed Britten wanted him to

write the libretto for it.

The two of them had not met since 1942 and their relationship was strained.

Auden was also being interviewed by Humphrey Carpenter (John Wark) from the BBC, but Auden mistook him for the rent boy he had ordered. Carpenter would go on to write the biographies of both Auden and Britten after they died.

The rent boy turned up later and was played by Benjamin Chandler. There were jokes about male’s appendages and some bad language which may be not have been to everyone tastes.

Veronica Roberts was good as Kay, the company stage manager, who managed to keep everyone happy when tempers began to get frayed.

Bennett, as usual, writes insightful dialogue which gives us some understanding of the lives of Britten and Auden. The Habit of Art also looked at the profession of acting and the fear actors can face about performing. 8/10

The Wack Pack

Review by Ron Ellis THE Wack Pack The Green Room, Liverpool LIVERPOOL’S top swing band, The Wack Pack, starred at The Green Room after a year’s absence from the venue where they first started out.

During that year, all three members have been involved in separate projects. Joe Speare has been starring in Guys and Dolls in London’s West End and Bouncers

at Liverpool’s Royal Court; Steve Charles spent summer working in Marbella while Asa Murphy, now a regular on BBC Radio Merseyside with his own show every Sunday at 5pm, is about to launch the Buddy Holly Lives show at the Epstein Theatre on November 16, a musical celebrating the life of the rock’roll legend with a full cast.

There was a full house for the return of the band to The Green Room on Sunday where they were backed by an eight-piece band featuring keyboards, double bass, guitar, drums and a

four-piece brass section of two trumpets, trombone and trumpet.

They performed a wide selection of swing, jazz and rock’n’roll leaving the audience shouting for more with songs like Can’t Take My Eyes Off You, Volare, The Lady is a Tramp and Mack the Knife, which Asa described as ‘the ultimate swing number.

The Wack Pack will be returning to The Green Room on Sunday, December 2nd for their Christmas Show.

Star rating 9 out of 10. Just like being in Las Vegas. A great show.

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

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

Animal Shelter Teams Up With Foodbanks for YOV

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

Volunteers Needed To Create A Real Buzz In Formby!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

But how can you get involved?

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

MOTORS

New model comes with a choice of three engines VOLKSWAGEN will take on the Nissan Juke and Renault Captur when it launches its smallest SUV yet here early next year.

The new model, which will be offered with a choice of three petrol engines and one turbodiesel, shares plenty of bits with the Polo and Golf, and is shorter than the existing T-Roc model to make it easier to drive around city centres.

There’s no word on prices or UK specification yet, but keep an eye on www.volkswagen.co.uk for more information.

The T-Cross will be the fourth - and smallest - SUV launched by VW in the UK

Vauxhall uses its own history for inspiration VAUXHALL has turned to its history for inspiration for its latest special edition Corsa.

I DON’T mind saying it. I’m a bit slower than I used to be.

Not in the sense that I’m no longer any good at the brainteasers Channel 4 chucks at me during the commercial breaks on Countdown or that I no longer know how many were going to St Ives – but that it takes longer to cover ground, no matter what the car.

Regardless of whether I’m in a Suzuki Celerio or the new McLaren Speedtail, the age of 50mph average speed restrictions that go on for ten miles at a time have seen to that.

Not that it matters one jot, because speed isn’t the luxury it used to be. Do the one percent jet across the globe in three hours on Concorde? Nope, because these days they can do it overnight in an A380 first class cabin that’s better equipped than most hotel suites. The sleeper trains to Cornwall and the Scottish Highlands have been kitted out with more upmarket furnishings because the operators know plenty of folk are happy to fork out for the hotel-on-rails experience.

Making the journey more enjoyable, rather than quicker, is where the smart money is these days.

Which is probably why I emerged from Citroen’s latest C4 Picasso with a content smile

The C4 Picasso

the other day. It might be a distant relative of the Peugeot 5008 that I tried a few months ago, but unlike that car it doesn’t pretend to be a chunky off-roader – this unashamedly sets out its stall as a people carrier, and feels all the better for it.

Nope it’s not the most razor-edge family bus through the corners but it handles capably enough, with the reward instead being a soft, supple ride. Visibility is excellent – no turgid, safety-paranoid A-pillars here – and the full-length panoramic glass roof makes it feel like something like out of Grand Designs inside. You can slide the sun visor mountings back into the headlining too, to give you even more light through that massive windscreen.

Kevin McCloud would approve of how avantgarde and well appointed it is inside too – I love the dashboard plastics and the way all the dials have been moved into a

single digital slab on the centre of the dashboard, including a strip-style speedometer reminiscent of what your granddad had in his Rover P6. The seats heat up and give you massages too – and the front passenger one comes with a leg rest not entirely like something you’d get on a living room recliner.

I even like the way it looks – those headlights make it seem like it’s squinting at you with faint disapproval, as if to say you’re an idiot for buying an SUV instead. In fact, the only real chink in its armour is that something this massive really ought to have seven seats – for that you’d need its Grand Picasso sibling, which doesn’t look as good.

So there you go – I’m championing an MPV because I think it’s a bit of a looker.

Maybe I am a bit slower than I used to be, after all...

Jones bags brace as Bucks beat Barlick Bootle 4 Barnoldswick Town 0 A SECOND half brace from Steven Jones helped Bootle to a comfortable win on Saturday, writes Connor O’Neill.

The Bucks have notoriously found their East Lancashire counterparts a tough side to crack at home, winning just once in their precious five meetings at TDP Solicitors Stadium.

And things didn’t exactly start to plan here, with the hosts awarded a penalty after just nine minutes.

Andrew Hill stepped up for Matt Barnes’ side, but his spot kick was saved by Bucks keeper Jack McGovern.

Ten minutes later and the Bucks opened the scoring through Ryan Cox. Some neat play between Jones and Carl Peers saw the latter cross for Cox who had the easiest of finishes from eight-yards out.

Joe Doran’s side now had their tails up and went close to doubling their lead through both Peers and Antony Hickey

before the first half was out.

But four minutes into the second period and Doran’s side would have a double their lead.

Picking up the ball 25-yards out, Jones let fly with a curling left footed effort that flew into the bottom corner of the net.

Eighteen minutes later, and Jones had his sides third and his second of the afternoon.

Connor Millington advanced down the right before producing a pinpoint cross that found Jones on the edge of the Barlick box - the forward then let fly with an audacious first time left-footed volley that found the bottom corner of the net.

Further chances followed for Doran’s side with Cox and Ste Hoy both forcing Ryan Liversey into saves - while at the other end, McGovern remained largely untested.

The Bucks, however, would add a fourth in stoppage time.

Collecting the ball 20-yards from goal, substitute Elliot Nevitt drove into space before seeing his deflected effort loop into the top corner of the net.

Marine struggled to impose themselves against Lancaster City on Saturday. Picture by Susan Nugent

Mariners foiled by Remyca leave it visitors in Trophy exit late to earn point Litherland Remyca 1 Winsford United 1 LITHERLAND Remyca left it late to earn a point at home to Winsford United.

The game went off at a frantic pace with neither team gaining control and the ball being given away by both teams.

A brisk wind blowing down the pitch did not help matters.

On 18 minutes as Winsford broke forward and a neat back heel from Winsford forward Joe Duckworth put team mate Obi

Anorvo clear and he finished clinically into the top corner of the net.

The half time whistle could not come quick enough to allow the home side to regroup.

After the interval Remyca appeared with renewed vigour, upped the tempo and with the wind at their backs began to dominate.

On 80 minutes the ball broke on the left and Declan Gregson cut inside and finished expertly into the bottom corner to draw level.

Maghull marksman Boyle on target again Vauxhall Motors 0 Maghull 2 AFTER his hat-trick of the previous week against Redgate Rovers prolific Maghull marksman Mike Boyle was again on target last weekend when he netted both of his sides goals in Maghull’s victory over Vauxhall Motors at their Rivacre Road Stadium in Ellesmere Port.

This success takes Maghull, the current league leaders, through to the quarter finals of the West Cheshire League’s Pyke Cup competition where they will face one of their closest rivals for the title,

Newton on November 25.

Meanwhile at Old Hall Field the Reserves suffered another setback when they were defeated by four goals to two by Mallaby in a Second division encounter in which Mike Cummins and Marco Parvas netted for the home side.

Next Saturday Maghull play host at Old Hall Field, to Ellesmere Port in a First Division contest whilst the Reserves travel to the Wirral to face league newcomers Wirral SB in the West Cheshire League Second Division.

Both matches now kick off at the earlier time of 2pm.

Marine 0 Lancaster City 2

MARINE lost their third match in a row after they were knocked out the FA Trophy by Lancaster City.

The first half set the tone for the entire match with the ball going back and forth between the two halves of the pitch and not much separating the sides.

Chris Doyle prevented a certain goal at the tail end of the first half as Ryan Winder wound his way beyond goalkeeper Martin Fearon and had the net just begging for the ball.

The second half started much like the first with neither team really looking to make much of an impact on the tie.

Lancaster City didn’t allow the Mariners to play

their brand of football and were happy to overload the hosts’ attacking players.

The introduction of Chris Sang in the 68th minute – along with James Short - did prompt the hosts to impose themselves on the game but it just wasn’t enough.

The visitors eventually fought back and forced Marine into conceding a penalty which was coolly converted by Robert Wilson in the 73rd minut.

A late headed effort from Glenn Steel sealed a win for Lancaster.

The loss for Marine now makes it three on the bounce, including their exit from the FA Cup at the hands of Salford and 1-0 defeat in the league to Nantwich.

Marine were due to host Lancaster City again last night (Tuesday) for a League Cup second round tie and return to league action on Saturday when they host Hyde United.

Firwood Waterloo show pace and verve to overwhelm Warrington Firwood Waterloo 31 Warrington 3 FIRWOOD Waterloo dominated much of the game and ended easy winners, playing with pace and verve.

The pattern was set early on with a long period of Waterloo pressure but Warrington defended well. and confined the home side to a

Clare House, 166 Lord Street, Southport PR9 0QA

converted try.

The visitors then pressed the Waterloo line without being able to breach a well organized defence.

Warrington nearly scored in the corner but were denied but did get points on the board through a penalty.

Firwood Waterloo were perhaps unfortunate to go into half time only 7-3 ahead given the amount of posses-

01704 392 392

sion they had had.

In the second half Waterloo played with bustle and pace, to overwhelm the visitors.

Tries came in a 20 minute burst for Firwood Waterloo, with the whole team playing with confidence following the lead of their half backs and an impressive back row.

The pick of the tries was a superb solo effort from man of the match Josh Critchley

www.champnews.com

who went over after a 60 metre run.

In the last five minutes Warrington laid siege to the Waterloo line, but the defence held them up and the visitors went tryless for the first time in several seasons.

Firwood Waterloo visit Northwich for another league encounter on Saturday.
