Plans for a spectacular year of culture reaching every Sheffield neighbourhood have been revealed, less than two weeks after the city was shortlisted to become UK City of Culture 2029. Sheffield has unveiled the first outline of an ambitious, city-wide cultural programme that would combine spectacular large-scale events with creativity rooted in every neighbourhood if the city becomes UK City of Culture 2029. Flagship concepts include a city transformed by light, a Sanctuary Carnival, a 10,000-strong mass singing programme, and major commissions spanning music, heritage, theatre, film, digital

with landscape. Its next phase would bring established Sheffield names together with emerging artists, young people and communities to develop work that could only happen in this city. Sheffield’s bid is built around the idea of taking the city from “Grassroots to Global”, with a year of culture made with and by Sheffield’s people and designed to reach every neighbourhood. The programme aims to “bring Sheffield to the world, and the world to Sheffield”. It is organised around Make, Belong and Imagine, covering themes including young people and future generations, health and wellbeing, neighbourhoods and communities, and nature

sheffield reveals ambitious plan for “city of culture” Newport Road, North Cave, art and disability-led culture. Together, they are intended to create unforgettable moments with national and international reach while giving Sheffield’s communities a central role in shaping the year. The programme would also include investment in Sheffield’s established festivals, a youth-led creative programme, Creative Prescriptions and large-scale cultural projects celebrating Sheffield’s rivers, parks, outdoor spaces and relationship with the Peak District. The programme would draw on Sheffield’s globally recognised music and sporting heritage, major cultural institutions, independent scene and distinctive relationship

and the environment. The plans have been shaped through extensive engagement across the city. Five Creative Assemblies involved 440 participants, a city-wide survey attracted more than 600 responses, more than 300 young people were engaged and 30 in-depth interviews were held with cultural, community and civic leaders. The digital campaign also reached more than 250,000 views. Key messages from that engagement included building on Sheffield’s grassroots strengths, taking cultural activity into neighbourhoods as well as the city centre, giving residents and young people a role in shaping decisions and creating a lasting legacy of skills,

spaces and relationships. A report says Sheffield’s creative economy already contributes almost £1 billion annually and supports more than 9,000 jobs. The City of Culture programme would aim to build on this by attracting further investment, increasing visitors, creating opportunities and skills for young people, strengthening neighbourhood participation and supporting a more resilient cultural sector. Sheffield’s shortlisting was announced on 21 October. The successful city will receive £10 million from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, while each runner-up will receive £125,000 to take forward elements of their bid.

£5000 grants available through Sheffield’s new arts & culture fund Small arts, culture and heritage organisations in Sheffield can apply for grants of up to £5,000 following the launch of a new fund created to strengthen the city’s cultural sector. Applications are now open for the Sheffield Arts and Culture Fund, established and managed by South Yorkshire’s Community Foundation (SYCF) on behalf of Culture Sheffield and Sheffield City Council. The fund aims to support grassroots, not-for-

profit organisations with grants to for arts, culture and heritage projects which benefit Sheffield’s residents and communities. This could include developing skills and leadership, strengthening governance and financial sustainability, building partnerships, creating inclusive cultural opportunities or developing the experience needed to secure future investment. It follows Sheffield’s successful shortlisting to become

UK City of Culture 2029 and builds on the ambition of Sheffield’s 10-year Culture Strategy to ensure that everyone who lives in, works in or visits the city has the opportunity to benefit from arts and culture. Martin Singer DL, Chief Executive of South Yorkshire’s Community Foundation, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to open the Sheffield Arts and Culture Fund which will offer much-needed, practical support to the small and grassroots

organisations that make a vital contribution to the city. Arts, culture and heritage play such an important role in bringing Sheffield’s diverse communities together and creating a stronger sense of pride in place. But smaller organisations often have limited resources to develop their ideas and bring projects to life. This fund is about helping those organisations to explore new opportunities which, in turn, will enable

them to reach more people. As well as encouraging eligible organisations to apply, we’re also keen to hear from businesses, philanthropists and individuals who want to help grow the fund and create a lasting source of support for Sheffield’s cultural life.” Linda Bloomfield from RivelinCo – an arts group delivering creative programmes in community venues across north Sheffield, said: “We’re delighted to hear about the new SYCF grant,

which aims to support grassroots arts and culture in Sheffield.” SYCF is South Yorkshire’s largest grant giving charity and is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. Since 1986, the Community Foundation has awarded £40 million to thousands of groups across Barnsley, Rotherham, Doncaster and Sheffield.

I asked my wife to rate my listening skills and she said, “You’re an 8 on a scale of 10.” Really don’t understand why she told me to urinate on a skeleton. When I was a kid, my parents would always say, “Excuse my French” after a swear word... I’ll never forget my first day at school when the teacher asked did I know any French. What’s it like living in North Korea? Can’t complain. My bank recently called me to let me know I had an outstanding balance. I said: “Thanks I used to do gymnastics” and hung up the phone. That was nice of them to say. Today I had someone knock on my door asking for small donations towards the local swimming pool. I gave him a glass of water. What time does Sean Connery go to Wimbledon? Tennish. I accidentally handed my wife a glue stick instead of a chapstick. She still isn’t talking to me. My girlfriend told me she was leaving me because I keep pretending to be a Transformer. I said, “No, wait! I can change.” My obese parrot died the other day. Have to admit it’s a big weight off my shoulders. My neighbours listen to really good music… Whether they like it or not. What happened when the red ship crashed into the blue ship? The crews were marooned.

News, Information and Advice

local man nominated for award bugs warning for real trees ultramarathon for charity A South Yorkshire brain injury survivor who retrained as a personal trainer to help others through their recovery has been named a finalist at Headway UK’s Annual Awards. Jake Cooper, 31, from Sheffield, has been shortlisted for the Alex Richardson Achiever of the Year Award after transforming his own experience of rehabilitation following a life-changing car accident into a new career supporting others. Each year Headway UK hosts a glittering awards ceremony celebrating the dedication, growth and outstanding achievements of brain injury survivors, carers, volunteers, and others in the Headway community across the country. This year’s awards are headline sponsored by Charles Stanley Raymond James. Jake sustained a traumatic brain injury in 2017, when, as a passenger, the car he was travelling in crashed into a tree at 70mph. Aged just 21 at the time, Jake also had fractures to his spine, a broken arm, multiple blood clots, a broken left leg and ankle, and an open fracture of his right lower leg. He was placed into an induced coma and spent an initial seven weeks in hospital, with the surgeries that followed spanning several years, including a gruelling lengthening of his tibia. At one point, he was told that he might not walk properly again and spent 18 months in a wheelchair, as well as several years experiencing significant challenges with mobility, pain, fatigue and cognitive function. At the time of the accident, Jake was an apprentice looking forward to qualifying as an electrician. But in 2024, supported by his occupational therapist at Rehabilitate Therapy, he took the leap of pursuing a new career. Drawing on his experience of training in the gym, Jake completed volunteering and an online course structured around managing pain and fatigue, qualifying as a personal trainer at the beginning of 2025. Since then, Jake has used his experiences to support and inspire others. Jake said: “I was in a wheelchair for about a

year and a half after the accident. Having that independence taken away from you, and at such a young age, is really hard. From being a hands-on electrician to having everyone do everything for you, it’s not a nice feeling. You lose your pride a little, but I feel I’ve gained it back through helping other people. I started working with Rehabilitate after presenting my story to them in their Lifelong Learning group. I started volunteering with them and they offered me a job, which helped me build up the confidence to set up my own business, ReConnexion, at the start of 2025. It’s a unique form of personal training because most personal trainers aren’t trained to work with brain injury survivors. Traditional PT approaches often focus on pushing clients to their limits, but with brain injury survivors it’s important not to overdo it. So, it’s about building that rapport and noticing when they’re fatigued or losing concentration. As well as training people in the gym, I also help clients with day-to-day tasks like planning and setting reminders, and going on walks and helping clients with their mental health.” Jake was nominated for the awardby his occupational therapist, Sara Grimshaw at Rehabilitate Therapy. Sara said: “Jake turned his own recovery into a second career, built to help others recover. Retraining as a personal trainer while managing pain, fatigue and cognitive difficulties is hard enough on its own, but using that qualification specifically to work with people rebuilding after brain injury, shows the inspiration isn’t just in his personal comeback, it’s in what he’s built for others.” Jake said being nominated for the award gave him “an immense sense of pride” to know that the work he does in helping fellow brain injury survivors has been recognised.

Experts warn residents to check their Christmas trees for pests before bringing them inside. In the UK, six to eight million Christmas trees are sold every year. These trees provide shelter for insects in the colder months and might become active when they are moved into a warm home. The most common pests that could be in your Christmas tree • Conifer aphids are often found on firs and cedar trees, where they feed on sap. They are harmless but do produce a sticky substance called honeydew, which can get on your ornaments, baubles, and decorations. If you notice aphids, do not squish them while they are on your tree or decorations, as they can leave stains. • Spider mites are also common, but can be hard to spot due to their small size. They are commonly found on pine, fir, and spruce trees. One quick way to test if your tree carries these pests is by using a white piece of paper. Hold the paper underneath a branch and begin tapping and shaking the branch. If tiny dots start moving on the paper, that is a sign of spider mites. If your tree has a large number of spider mites, you might notice fine webbing between the needles. UK homes are no strangers to spiders, but what is important to look for this festive season is if your tree has any spider egg sacs. The warmth of your home can cause these egg sacs to hatch prematurely. If you notice an egg sac, you can choose to relocate that piece of branch outside or use a hoover. How to check your tree before bringing it inside your home • One simple first step in making sure there are no pests on your tree is to vigorously shake it before bringing it inside. Some Christmas tree farms actually have mechanical tree shakers that you can use before you bring your

tree home. • Take the time to inspect every branch carefully. Look for groups of dark insects, webbing, egg sacs, or abnormal markings on the needles. Don’t forget to look at the trunk and base of the tree as well. Look for small holes, which are often a sign of wood-boring insects. • Placing a white sheet or a tree skirt under your tree will allow you to quickly spot any insects as you put your tree up and spread the branches. It is also recommended to buy from a supplier that is affiliated with the British Christmas Tree Growers Association. The Christmas decorations that also bring pests Trees are not the only way that pests can come into your home this season. Your decorations have been in storage for nearly a year, which can create an opportunity for more pests, especially if they have been in the loft, garage, or shed. Cardboard boxes are known for being home to cockroaches, spiders, and silverfish. If you stored electrical decorations and noticed signs of mice, make sure you check that the wires have not been chewed through. Households should also keep an eye on the water in their Christmas tree stand. Stagnant water can encourage mould growth and attract fungus gnats. Keep the stand clean and change the water regularly. Fresh wreaths and garlands can also bring spiders, aphids, mites, and woodlice into your home. Gently shake them out and carefully examine them before bringing them into your home. Firewood is another way pests can enter your home. Woodlice, spiders, and ants often seek shelter in firewood during the colder months. Only bring small amounts into your home at a time; that way they are going directly into the fire before they can affect your home.

Charity worker and ultramarathon runner, Max Newton (53) from Woodseats in Sheffield will attempt to be only the second person to complete The Hill, a gruelling and unique running challenge in aid of the young people’s charity Cerebra. He’s asking people in Sheffield for their support as he’s raising funds for this important national charity. It’s not a question of marching them up the hill and marching them down again. Max and his fellow competitors will aim to run the staggering 160 mile run in just 48 hours. It is ominously called The Hill, because it involves repeated ascents and descents 1.4 miles up and down one of the UK’s steepest hills - The Wrekin, near Telford in Shropshire. The total ascent equates to running up Everest 1.6 times. To make it even more difficult, it takes place on 4-6 December, so the weather is likely to be cold, windy, wet and, of course for part of the time, dark. There is a ban on headphones or support crews. Max is raising money for the children’s charity, Cerebra. Cerebra supports and seeks to bring joy to children and young people with neurological conditions (from autism to cerebral palsy) and their families. The charity creates bespoke toys and pieces of equipment for children

with often multiple, complex disabilities and supports parents with guides, legal support, and sleep advice and training. The first edition of this event at this location was 2025, and out of 25 hardened ultramarathon veterans who started, only professional ultrarunner and record holder Sarah Perry completed the race. Max is an amateur charity runner who successfully completed The Tunnel – 200miles back and forth in a dark tunnel – in 2020. Max Newton said: “The distance is significant, but I’m prepping by running up Sheffield’s seven hills – Cobnar Rd and Jenkin Hill are my favourites. It’s going to be dark and wet, and there’s minimal race support. I can’t wait! What will keep me going is thinking of all the children and their families that Cerebra supports. At this time of year when many of us have giving on our minds, just £5 or £10 would help make this challenge worthwhile. I’m relying on people’s generosity”. Mark Cockbain, race organiser from Cockbain Events, says: “I believe The Hill is just about achievable as long as you are prepared to put yourself through non-stop pain for just under 48 hours.” Local people are asked to sponsor Max via https:// www.justgiving.com/ page/max-hill

The Victoria Cross Trust, a local charity, is hosting a unique event that will commemorate the seven Doncaster soldiers who earned the highest award for valour – The Victoria Cross. Mayor of Doncaster, Ros Jones, said: “On the eve of Remembrance, this special event gives us an opportunity to reflect and give thanks to the brave soldiers who fought for our country. Doncaster’s seven Victoria Cross recipients came from all walks of life and I hope many people, young and old, will take this opportunity to find out more about them and their most significant roles during two world wars.” The event will include displays of Victoria Cross heritage, artefacts and history. Local historians will be on hand to speak about Doncaster’s history, along with patron Rusty Firmin SAS who led a team during Operation Nimrod into the Iranian Embassy to release hostages being held there in 1980. Keith Lumley, Chair of Trustees, said: “As a former town Doncaster has the highest number of Victoria Cross recipients and this is the first event of its kind to be held here. This event will provide an opportunity to sustain the preservation of remembering these men and share the work we do.” The Victoria Cross Trust undertakes the restoration and maintenance of the graves and memorials of Victoria Cross recipients and also works with local schools and organisations. There will be an opportunity to find out more about their work, give donations and purchase remembrance related merchandise at the event. City of Doncaster Council

is set to receive £453,990 of Government funding to strengthen support for people sleeping rough this winter, helping ensure that everyone identified sleeping on the streets is offered a route into accommodation and longer-term support. The funding, allocated through the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA) as part of the Government’s Rough Sleeping Programme Winter Package, will support an enhanced “Routes off the Street” response across Doncaster between September 2026 and March 2027. The programme aims to ensure that every person sleeping rough is offered support or accommodation by Christmas and has a personalised plan towards longer-term stable housing by the end of March 2027. The investment will build on Doncaster’s existing rough sleeping services and include: • A winter-wide off-thestreet accommodation offer • Additional outreach workers and a dedicated Outreach Coordinator • Personalised support plans for every person identified as sleeping rough • Targeted support for people experiencing long-term rough sleeping • Specialist mental health support • Faster move-on from supported accommodation to free up spaces for those most in need • A dedicated single point of access to coordinate support and accommodation pathways

S Club appearing at sheffield utilita arena charity christmas quiz S Club, one of the most successful British pop groups of all time, have announced the ‘Ain’t No Party Like A S Club Party’ Tour, with 13 UK and Ireland shows starting on 8th October 2027 at Glasgow OVO Hydro. The tour will see Bradley, Jo, Jon, Rachel and Tina reunite for an incredible feel-good pop party at iconic venues across the country including Manchester AO Arena on Saturday 9th October and two shows at The O2 in London on Saturday 16th October (matinee and evening). Tickets for all shows go on sale at 9.30am on Friday 6th November, HERE. Fans can access an exclusive pre-sale from 9.30am on Wednesday 4th November by signing up HERE. S Club say: “We can’t wait to get back out on tour, see you all and celebrate the songs, memories and moments we’ve shared together over the years. It’s going to be one

BIG party, and we want you all to be part of it!” They will be joined by special guests Boyzlife, the supergroup made up of the former Boyzone and Westlife members Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden, on all dates. S Club captured the hearts of a generation with hits including ‘Bring It All Back’, ‘S Club Party’, ‘Reach’ and ‘Never Had a Dream Come True’. Throughout their career, they have sold over 10 million albums worldwide, had four Number One singles, 11 Top 5 singles, and 4 multi-platinum studio albums, including ‘7’ which went to Number One in the UK charts. The band have also won two BRIT awards, including British Breakthrough Artist and Best British Single for ‘Don’t Stop Movin’. However, S Club weren’t just a pop group. They were a gang you wanted to be part of. ‘S Club Party’ introduced them one by one,

inviting you into their world and making you feel like there was a place for everyone. You didn’t just listen to the song. You joined in! For many, S Club became part of growing up. And when we hear them now, we don’t just remember the music, we remember where we were, who we were with, and what it felt like to be that age, because growing up doesn’t mean growing out of having fun. So, who’s coming to the party? S Club are one of the defining British pop groups of the late 1990s and early 2000s, bringing together infectious pop anthems, colourful personalities and an unmistakable sense of fun. More than just a pop group, S Club became a cultural phenomenon, starring in their own television series and building a world that blurred the lines between music, friendship and adventure. Miami 7 and L.A 7 became recordbreaking favourites on children’s

TV and were watched by more than 90 million people in over 100 countries. L.A 7 remains the highest rating programme of all time on CBBC. Their uplifting sound, feel-good lyrics and larger-than-life personalities made them synonymous with an era of unapologetic optimism, where every song felt like a celebration and every performance brought people together. In 2023, S Club celebrated their 25th anniversary with a sellout UK & US tour including performances at The O2 Arena. In June 2026, S Club members Tina Barrett, Jon Lee, Bradley McIntosh, Jo O’Meara and Rachel Stevens embarked on the next chapter of this phenomenal pop act’s future by performing as special guests at Boyzone’s Two For The Road at Emirates Stadium.

blades’ unbeaten run ended sad owls crash out of cup at first hurdle

United’s four-match unbeaten run came to a disappointing end in south-east London on Saturday afternoon. Substitute Matty Godden netted the winner for the home side, after Jordan Ayew’s first goal as a Blade had cancelled out Millenic Alli’s early opener. United made three changes for the clash in the capital. Following the midweek success at Preston, there were recalls for Kitching, Phillips and Ayew, with McGuinness, Riedewald and Cannon dropping to the bench, where Davies returned having overcome a back problem. The Blades started brightly with Ayew seeing an effort denied by the legs of Mannion after the hosts failed to clear a cross by Donovan. But on 12 minutes, Charlton took the lead with their first attempt on goal, as ALLI fired low and hard into the near post with a left-footed strike that beat Cooper’s dive. The visitors reacted positively though and with 25 minutes played, restored parity. Donovan was fouled by Alli and an inswinging free kick from Phillips was only parried by Mannion, with AYEW

reacting instinctively to head home into the empty net. Moments later, Mannion misjudged a Phillips corner, but reacted quickly enough to gather a Kitching header towards goal. The first half ended with a flurry of yellow cards, with the hosts collecting three. McNamara was first in the book of referee Corlett for a lunge on Donovan. Choudhury was carded for a foul on Campbell, before Bindon and Mwamba quickly fouled for late challenges on Brereton Diaz and Kitching respectively. United made a change at the break, with Seriki replacing Choudhury. But within two minutes of the restart Seriki fell in obvious discomfort following a duel with Campbell and was subsequently stretched from the field, with McGuinness taking his place. Rankin-Costello then became the next Addick into the book for a nasty lunge on Chong. With the game in the balance, Charlton regained the lead in the 79th minute as GODDEN tucked home at the near post after Alli had fashioned a crossing opportunity from the right. Looking for a second leveller,

Phillips tested Mannion from a free kick won by Donovan, before Chong saw a shot saved in the second phase from the resulting corner. The Blades last changes with the clock ticking saw Campbell and Arblaster enter the fray, prior to eight minutes of added time being shown by the fourth official and at the death United almost earnt themselves a point, but Mannion produced an excellent low save at his near post to deny Peck, from Chong’s cross. Chris Wilder described United’s late loss at Charlton Athletic on Saturday as a ‘missed opportunity’ heading into the international break. Matt Godden won it for Addicks in the latter stages. But sadly, the loss was put into perspective, as Wilder revealed that Femi Seriki will miss the rest of the season with a serious knee injury. Seriki replaced Hamza Choudhury at the interval but was stretched off within minutes of the restart and Wilder confirmed the exciting wing back had suffered significant damage following a tackle on Tyreece Campbell.

Non-League Round Up

19 minutes when Gerge Rudd fired home. He scored again on 23 minutes when his chipped effort made it 3-0. Hepworth were being run ragged and were being totally outplayed. So it was no surprise when a run by Jordan Turner on 31 minutes saw him score Jube’s fourth goal and Jordan scored again 36 minutes to make it 5-0 at half-time. The second half saw Hepworth continue to be chasing shadows and Jordan Turner went close

on 60 minutes but his effort went agonisingly wide. Hepworth were awarded a penalty on 67 minutes, but it was a mere consolation goal. A sixth goal for Jubes was ruled out on 72 minutes for a foul in the penalty area but it was a faultless performance.

In near perfect conditions, Jubilee Sports took on Hepworth United Reserves in a top of the table clash. From the start it was Jubes who dictated the game with a good display of passing football. Ieuan Toner saw his shot from the edge of the penalty area open the scoring on 10 minutes. Hepworth had no answer to Jubes and were further behind on

An extra time winner for Oldham Athletic saw Wednesday exit the Emirates FA Cup by the odd goal in three. Will Sutton netted the decider for the hosts after Calum Kavanagh had put the Latics in front. Davis Keillor-Dunn scored the Owls’ equaliser shortly after going behind, but the late winner for the hosts sees them enter the hat for round two. The opening minutes saw end-to-end action but with neither side troubling the other’s goalkeeper. That was until Miek Fondup darted through on goal, only to be thwarted brilliantly by Ashley Maynard-Brewer. Unfortunately, the Australian’s brave action

resulted in an injury and he was replaced by Connal Trueman on 17 minutes. Trueman had to be alert to deny Gus Scott-Morriss soon after coming on, the defender’s powerful strike was blocked well by the substitute. Callum Slattery struck from distance but Mathew Hudson was equal to the low effort. The remainder of the first half went by without incident and it was Wednesday who started the second brighter. Barry Bannan had a powerful drive from the edge of the box parried behind by Hudson. But it was the hosts who took the lead on 66 minutes. Fondup had the

ball on the right side, he found Kavanagh in the centre and the forward finished clinically into the roof of the net. Wednesday went on the offensive and levelled 10 minutes later. Two substitutes combined with Max Lowe’s deep cross finding Sean Fusire at the back post, the Zimbabwe international played a low ball across to Keillor-Dunn, and the Wrexham-loanee made no mistake from 12 yards out. As the clock ticked down, the game returned to an end-to-end encounter. Fondup’s header looked destined for the bottom corner until Trueman’s outstretched hand tipped the ball wide. Jaden

Heskey and Bannan both had close attempts before Kieran Morrison’s low free kick was saved well by Hudson. The referee whistled for full time, which meant 30 minutes of extra time in Lancashire, and the sides continued to push for a winner.Slattery saw his daisy cutter from the edge of the box caught by Hudson, before Fondup’s header found the wrong side of Trueman’s back post. Then, 10 minutes into extra time, the hosts netted the match-winner. A free kick into the box eventually found its way to Sutton at the back post, and he nodded his side back in front. Di’Shon Bernard came close to netting another

equaliser for Wednesday, but the defender saw his shot drag wide. Manager Dave Challinor was disappointed by the manner in which Wednesday conceded both goals following their 2-1 defeat. “We’ve conceded two really, really soft goals, and that has to stop. You look at the second half, and it looked a whole lot better, a whole lot more like what I want a Sheffield Wednesday team to look like,” added the Owls boss. “Now, there are, I suppose, extenuating circumstances with some players. We’re short on numbers. But there’s no excuse for that.”

Grant McCann made four changes from the midweek victory over Rochdale. Jordan Thomas was rewarded for his second half display at Spotland with a start against the Harriers. Alfie May and Owen Bailey – who both scored against Dale – also came into the side, alongside Neill Byrne. Thomas looked to create for Rovers when he shifted the ball past Crompton and made headway into the area before his cross was cutout by Harries. May was a whisker away from giving Rovers the lead just two minutes later. McGrath switched the ball to the right flank for Nixon, who slipped in Bailey. He delivered low looking for the run of the forward, but he couldn’t make a

telling touch at the back post to convert, as the home side scrambled clear. The away side were forced to defend at the other end when their National League opponents made their first meaningful foray into Rovers territory. With 20 minutes gone, Alfie May created room for himself 25 yards from goal before playing the ball wide to Hanlan on the right. He found Nixon, who saw his cross glanced towards goal by Clifton, but it was kept out by Wint in the Harriers goal. It was the hosts who took the lead with 22 minutes on the clock through Walker. The striker initially hit a post with a ferocious drive from inside the area, but he made no mistake from the rebound, sweeping the ball past a stranded

Clarke to make it 1-0. Rovers looked for an instant response through Thomas, who saw his looping delivery turned behind for a corner. Four minutes after his opener, Walker had another opportunity when he was teed up by Stewart on the right flank, but this time, he couldn’t keep his effort on target. The home side doubled their advantage with 10 minutes to go until half-time. Walker beat the offside trap and squared the ball for Kouhyar, who converted a low effort past Clarke to make it 2-0. Grant McCann’s side had a glorious opportunity to reduce the deficit in the third minute of added on time, but May’s ambitious dink was clawed away by Wint, ensuring Rovers headed

into the break two down. McCann made two changes at the break with Darren Robinson and Leon Ayinde both introduced to the action and it was the latter who almost made an immediate impact when he got in-behind the Harriers’ defence and delivered low towards May, who looked to have a simple task of tapping the ball home before going down under pressure, but the protests were waved away. Rovers were made to rue that missed opportunity on 58 minutes, when Walker saw his effort saved by Clarke, but Davis was there to capitalise on the rebound and add a third for the hosts. Hutchinson had another opportunity with 76 minutes gone.

Adelakun teed him up for the strike from 25 yards which was parried as far as Ayinde, who couldn’t convert the rebound. Rovers continued to push for a way back into the contest. Second half substitute Hakeeb Adelakun saw his effort charged down, before Gotts also saw the rebound blocked with eight minutes left. It was Adelakun again who looked to create when he saw his effort from distance saved, before Senior put the rebound wide of the target. Rovers had the ball in the back of the net in the last minute of normal time. Hutchinson’s shot was well-saved, before May tapped home the rebound, but he was denied by the offside flag.
