VICS’ CHEF JAILED OVER THEFT

By Dave Goodban

A CHEF who stole nearly £9,000 from former Northwich Vics owner Mike Connett, then went on the run for five months, has been jailed.

Paul Burgess, 30, was head chef at Vics when he took the cash from two safes in at the Marston’s Arena on November 24 after a fundraising dinner. He pleaded guilty to theft in July and was sentenced to 12 months imprisonment at Chester Crown Court on Thursday. But Judge John Phipps did not order him to pay compensation – meaning Mr Connett, owner of Vics’ landlord Beaconet Ltd, will not get the £8,627 back. After going on the run, Burgess – now of Robin Hood Terrace, Nottingham – was eventually arrested in Manchester in April after a short stretch in Strangeways for a bail offence. He was also charged with fleeing from a bed and breakfast in Congleton without paying the £164 bill on February 9 last year, and stealing £1,493 from a social club in Knutsford – where he also worked as a chef – a week later. Simon Schwarz, prosecuting, said Burgess, who also used the surnames Johnstone

Plucky Jacob is at school

THINGS have taken another positive turn for plucky six-year-old Kingsmead youngster Jacob Marsland. After a wonderful summer which has seen his energy return and playing out once more top of the agenda, he has just enrolled as a pupil at Kingsmead Primary School.

Although he is still taking oral medication and needs a feeding tube to help his body receive essential nutrients, he was able to enrol at his new school on Wednesday. And to top it all he is now officially in remission. Jacob’s mum Nicky said: “This time last year we didn’t know whether he would live to see this summer, but since his last treatment he has improved tremendously, and the past few weeks have been just wonderful for him.” Fundraising to send Jacob abroad for treatment will continue.

Robin Boag, defending, asked the judge not to jail Burgess, saying he was “someone who had fallen into the clutches of alcohol”. He said: “He denies planning the offence. He took advantage of a situation that presented itself.” Judge Phipps described the two thefts from employers as “flagrant breaches of the trust imposed”. He added: “I cannot accept the submission I should pass anything other than a custodial sentence.”

Teenager’s sentence mix-up A SCHOOLGIRL from Winsford pleaded guilty to assault and walked away from court thinking she could be sent to a young offenders’ institute. Only after she left did magistrates realise they could not lock her up, as she is only 13 and has no previous convictions. The blunder was brought to light after the girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, admitted actual bodily harm and theft at Vale Royal Youth Court on Wednesday. Tom Bureau, prosecuting, said the defendant approached the 15-year-old female victim on Whitby’s Lane, Winsford about 6pm on Monday, May 12, and accused her of calling her friend “a scruff ”. “The victim was pulled down to the floor and the defendant stood on her face. The injured party was then kicked in the face,” he said. As the complainant took her phone out to call for help the defendant snatched it, removed the sim card and ran off, the court heard. Mr Bureau said she suffered bruising and swelling to the face and shoulder, and a split lip. The defendant admitted pulling the girl’s hair and stamping on her head, but denied kicking her in the face. The 13-year-old will be sentenced on September 24, and will be given a referral order.

Alcohol breach sparks shop licensing threat By Dave Goodban THE leaseholder of a troubled Winsford corner shop could face legal proceedings after a recent breach of his alcohol licence. Olivers, on the corner of Siddorn Street and High Street, was temporarily banned from selling booze last month after contravening the conditions of its licence by selling alcohol when the proprietor Neil Burke was not on the premises. The shop – formerly known as the Nip-In – has a chequered history, and residents have recently voiced fears the anti-social behaviour which used to blight the area is returning. Concerned neighbours this week contacted the Chronicle after flyers offering cheap alcohol deals were pushed through their doors. Mr Burke met Insp Dave Snasdell, head of Winsford Neighbourhood Policing Unit, last month following the breach, and the shop can now sell alcohol again as long as the stringent licence terms are adhered to. But the Chronicle understands Mr Burke could face a court case or a licensing hearing.

A police spokesman said: “We are aware there have been allegations of offences taking place at the premises and will be working with the borough council and the designated premises supervisor to work on a

review of the licence.” A Vale Royal Borough Council spokesman said: “The council is working closely with all relevant authorities to ensure evidence is gathered in support of any call for a review of the licence.”

Asbestos widow’s support group A WIDOW whose husband died from an asbestos-related illness after years working at ICI in Northwich has launched a support group for victims and their families. Gill Willcocks, lost her husband Dave on October 30 last year to mesothelioma cancer caused by asbestos exposure. The Dave Willcocks Asbestos Victim Support Group will be officially launched at Crewe Hall on November 12, to provide support for victims and their families and increase awareness of the deadly disease. Mrs Willcocks said: “Whilst caring for Dave I decided that I would start a support group for asbestos victims in my area so that I can share my experience. My aim is to help other

By Will Hughes people get information they might need to help them through this most distressing time. “I felt it was poignant to announce my intentions on the day of Dave’s inquest to bring home to people how asbestos can destroy the lives of families across the UK.” Mr Willcocks’ inquest was held yesterday at the Municipal Buildings in Crewe before Cheshire coroner Dr Nicholas Rheinberg. The inquest heard how Mr Willcocks, who was 61 when he died, had been regularly exposed to asbestos during his work as a machinist for ICI at the Wallerscote works in Northwich during the early 1970s.

A post-mortem revealed he had died of disseminated plural malignant mesothelioma. In his summary, Mr Rheinberg said: “There are many inquests involving mesothelioma and all tell a very similar story, in particular the miles of piping all clad in asbestos. “I am satisfied that the mesothelioma diagnosed was of industrial origin due to asbestos exposure.” Mr Rheinberg formally recorded a verdict of death from the industrial disease mesothelioma. ■ To find out more about the Dave Willcocks Asbestos Victim Support Group, and to learn about fundraising and donations, visit www.davewillcocksasbestosvictimsupportgroup.co.uk.

Neighbours on vandal alert WINSFORD residents have been asked by police to keep an eye out for vandals. That’s the plea going out to Allostock residents after a number of incidents of criminal damage were reported to police. Plants were damaged and torn out of the ground at a house on Princess Road, while thousands of pounds worth of damage were caused to a marquee at a field of Wash Lane. Det Sgt Tony Jones, of

Winsford Neighbourhood Policing Unit, said: “Whoever is responsible for this damage clearly has no concern about the feelings of others. “The marquee, which was daubed with graffiti, had been used as the base of a fishing competition and the damage spoiled what otherwise has been an extremely successful event. “It will cost thousands of pounds to clean the graffiti off the marquee, which may even have to be replaced.

“The plants which were damaged, whilst not particularly valuable in a monetary sense, were important to the people who live at the house and they are upset at the damage caused.” The vandalism comes just weeks after police called for vigilance following several incidents of criminal damage at Woodlands Park. Det Sgt Jones said: “Allostock’s rural location can make it easy for the vandals to commit criminal damage and get away quickly without being seen. “We need everyone in the village and surrounding areas to be aware of SPECIALIST the issue and to keep an eye out for people damaging property or acting suspiciously. “Our officers will be making regular patrols in the area, but we need the assistance of local people if we are to take steps towards stamping out this problem.” If you see anyone acting suspiciously or criminally contact Cheshire Police on 0845 458 0000. This number can also be used if you have any information about the two recent incidents which happened overnight between August 24 and 25.

People in authority should be respected – not abused SO PC Gaffney has been given a prison sentence for ‘punching’ a youth, which will result in the loss of his career. Is this a victory for justice and good policing, or is Judge Gascoigne taking us down another step on the downward spiral towards the abyss of yob and mob violence? While I would not like to comment on any specific case, the general outcome of this and other similar cases is clear. If a suspect or offender verbally abuses an officer of the law or delivers an implied threat about a weapon and the officer responds inappropriately to that intimidation, the offender is given a craven apology and the officer of the law loses their freedom and career (and possibly their house and marriage too). Indeed, I understand it is becoming something of a sport among wayward youths, to brazenly abuse police officers, teachers and other figures of authority, to see if you can get them suspended or dismissed. Let me make it clear that a BNP administration would view this situation rather differently. The level of intimidation directed towards the teacher or officer would be the primary focus of any investigation; and I would hope that the figure of authority would get a slap on the wrist, while it would be the offending youth who was sent to a secure unit. A clear signal needs to be sent out that responsible adults in positions of authority should be respected, rather than abused. RALPH ELLIS BNP, Vale Royal

CCTV can catch lawbreakers

They also worry about young people in Weaver Vale getting involved in crime, both as victims and criminals. I am on the side of the decent, law-abiding, majority in Weaver Vale who play by the rules and want their community to be safe. They want the police and the authorities to come down hard on lawbreakers. I believe CCTV is a powerful crime-fighting tool and helps put criminals where they belong – in jail. The Tories are now coming out against the use of CCTV in the fight against crime and anti-social behaviour. I think the most important human right for people in Weaver Vale is to feel safe in their homes and communities. But the Tories in Weaver Vale have some questions to answer. Do they support CCTV? Which cameras in Weaver Vale do they want to get rid of ? On youth crime, it is clear we have to look at how we, as a community, tackle it better. I support the action on Youth Crime recently outlined by Home Secretary Jacqui Smith. There will be street-based teams of youth workers to stop young people getting involved in anti-social behaviour. And more non-negotiable support for families who are causing problems. Young victims will get help to stay safe and to get help if they need it and better sentences. But action by Government will not solve problems on its own. We have to make sure the right tools are there for the police to work with the community and listening to their concerns and take action. And it’s about making sure

Not another clone town

I LOVE towns with character – interesting people, beautiful historic setting, and having an interesting selection of locally-owned and run shops providing personal service and supporting, or capable of supporting, small local manufacturers. Money circulates within the town; none is bled off to fat cats and stockbrokers. Respect for people and property comes naturally in such an interwoven society. Could this be Northwich? We talk of promoting tourism in Northwich: a town I describe would take hours, days or longer to investigate. The more big multis like Debenhams there are, the more it becomes a quick flit and move on. Seen one, seen them all. Their goods are made in huge numbers in anonymous factories, to be brought in huge ships and lorries. Clone products for clone people in a clone town. Training is being considered for a new legion of shop assistants: it should be for a new legion of creative entrepreneurs, to make a somewhat interesting town more so. The days of cheap imports are numbered; it’s time to relearn making and repairing. Let’s take Northwich off Debenhams’ map, and put it on THE map! ANTHONY POWELL

Store bid is drain on our resources

DEBENHAMS in Northwich is not even on the radar. Councillors and officers are clutching Debenhams’ May 2006 prospectus when the group returned to the stock market. Billions were made by the city selling the shares at the flotation price of 195 pence. Last Friday, September 5, 2008 the closing price was 46 pence. A pre-tax profit forecast for 2009 of £248 million is unlikely to exceed £100 million. Debenhams’ problem stems from a whacking £1 billion debt. In 2007 interest payments gobbled up £66 million. A programme of cost cutting, stock reduction, fewer store refurbishments and other capital expenditure reduction was instigated and is ongoing. A new high financial risk store in Northwich is incompatible with those measures. If a Debenhams Group store is to be built (not necessarily titled Debenhams), the new Cheshire West Unitary authority will have to come up with a planning revolution as to changes in town access, the river bridges and road infrastructure. That is if it has not been built elsewhere by 2015. Surely the dreadful smell of drains in High Street and Witton Street ought to be a priority? CLIVE PENNY Lodge Lane, Hartford, Northwich .

Dump these cuts to fire service

LOCAL fire and rescue authorities across Cheshire face the prospect of making cuts to local fire stations or increasing the fire levy on Council Tax. CCTV FAN: Major problems have been Weaver Vale MP exposed with the Labour Mike Hall. Government’s plans for the SB030306AWAY-01 regionalisation of the fire services. Labour ministers are currently pushing ahead with plans to replace England’s 46 local fire control rooms with nine regional control rooms in each Government office region. This project is known as FiReControl. The local fire control room in Winsford would be closed and superseded by a sprawling regional call centre based in Warrington. Regionalisation will result in the downgrading of many ‘tri-service’ centres, the loss of local knowledge and expertise, and significant expenditure. The draft business case last year admitted that the set-up costs of the project were already £400m over its £1 billion national

The Fire Brigades Union has recently estimated that £278m is being spent on management consultants, regional project directors, “change co-ordinators”, project assurance directors, PR staff, civil servants and agency staff to handle the restructuring. Whilst the Government has pledged to fund centrally the increased running costs for the regional control centres, these payments are only for three years. This leaves the prospect that local fire authorities will have to pick up the bill. The SNP-led administration in Scotland cancelled Labour’s plans for the regionalisation of Scottish fire control room in December. The Labour Government’s expensive plans for the regionalisation of the fire control services are mired in chaos. The shambolic project is already delayed and £400 million over budget. Costs are likely to rise even more once detailed costings are finalised. I fear that local fire services for Cheshire face cuts, or the fire levy on Council Tax will have to rise, in order to pay for the soaring bill for fire regionalisation. Labour ministers should follow the example of Scotland and dump these cuts to local fire services. There are better ways to improve our fire services than creating distant call centres based on the arbitrary regional government boundaries.

Importance of eating breakfast

I AM writing to let your readers know that while some studies suggest up to a quarter of us do not eat breakfast at all, it is a very important meal. As well as being able to make improvements to our general well-being, it is also a chance to get some fruit and vegetables into our diets. This is important because scientific research has shown that eating plenty of fruits and vegetables probably reduces cancer risk. This is why World Cancer Research Fund recommends eating at least five portions a day of a variety of different fruits and vegetables. With this in mind, we have produced a publication called Breakfast Boosts, which gives ideas for dishes to start the day that are healthy as well as tasting great.

The branch, on Dingle Walk, will shut at 1pm today (Wednesday), but Royal Mail bosses are confident it will reopen tomorrow morning.

Post Office Ltd expected it to close temporarily while a new premises and alternatives to counter services where discussed. But now residents have been given a welcome reprieve with the news the normal service will be resumed – for the time being at least. “The branch will close at 1pm on Wednesday,” said a

Winsford town mayor Des Worthington said: “It’s imperative we have a main post office in the town centre. In a town of over 30,000 people we need this one to be retained.” Anyone interested in running the branch in future, who is able to provide suitable, alternative premises, is asked to call 0845 6016260.

TOOL hire firm Speedy Hire, Middlewich Road, Rudheath, has teamed up with the Health and Safety Executive in a bid to reduce accidents caused by unsafe ladders. It is offering part-exchange on old ladders and discounts until December.

A HOUSE was left badly damaged when a fire started in the kitchen and spread to upstairs rooms. Firefighters from Northwich and Winsford rescued a pet from the blaze last Tuesday night in Ashwood Crescent, Barnton. A washing machine fault is thought to be the cause.

‘SKETCHES From the Front’, an exhibition of images of the First World War by W H Hutchings, of Northwich, will be on show at The Salt Museum, London Road, Northwich, from Friday, September 12 until January 11. Admission free.

ART took on a whole new taste at Tatton Park. Visual artist Lisa Cheung was commissioned to create a Kitchen Goddess. The Goddess was installed naked and dressed with skirts made of grow bags which were planted with fruit and veg which visitors tucked into.

Village hall fundraising goes on IT HAS been celebrations all the way in Sandiway and Cuddington where plans for the new village hall have been storming ahead. The plans have been approved by the parish council and have now gone to Vale Royal Borough Council where permission is expected to be granted. Once the green light is given building work is expected to start in the new year and be completed by next Christmas. About £300,000 has been raised towards the venture including a £250,000 grant from the borough council’s rural delivery fund and £26,260 raised by the village hall committee. The parish council is applying for a loan for a further £100,000 through the Public Works Loan Board. Fundraising is ongoing and anyone who can help is asked to contact Helen Webster on 01606 888931

Businesses ready for awards night EXCITEMENT is mounting across Cheshire’s business community as we wait to find out who has won this year’s titles in our Trinity Mirror Cheshire Business Awards. There is a week to go until the gala presentation evening at Chester’s Crowne Plaza hotel on September 19 so now is the time to book. The awards are supported by firms of all sizes from the biggest multi-nationals to the smallest start-ups, so the evening provides the ideal opportunity for networking. The black tie event also provides the perfect excuse for putting on the glitz.

For men ‘black tie’ means a dress suit with a bow tie. Although the ties are traditionally black, as the dress code suggests, there are many colourful alternatives. For women the words ‘black tie’ can be daunting. Although it usually implies a full length gown, many women now wear a cocktail dress or even trousers. Fashion expert and colour consultant Mac Tompsett of Color Me Beautiful offers some advice: “If you receive a ‘black tie’ invitation, unless you are Liz Hurley, jeans won’t do! “ Black tie does mean glamour, grooming, a chance to dress up, make up, and some formality. “Never have the season’s col-

ours given us more opportunity for glamour and sophistication. “Go for red – passionate bright reds through to wine, raspberry and berry. If you dare, try bright, clashing colours. “Fabrics are lurex, multi-tone taffetas, lace (sometimes gothic like) with patent and suede accessories with fringing, large sequins, ruffles and killer heels.” ■ Mac can be contacted on 01978 852 816 or e-mail: mactompsett@fsmail.net. To book tickets, at £65 each, for the Cheshire Business Awards presentation evening, call 0151 472 2570. For more details e-mail enquiries@cheshirebusinessawards.co.uk.

Award sponsor announced

Excellence is the key

IN THIS year’s Cheshire Business Awards the Community Award is being sponsored by Sellafield Ltd. A spokesperson said: “Sellafield Ltd operates part of the Capenhurst site for the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). “Following the completion of Capenhurst’s nuclear clean-up programme in 2009, our vision is to maximise the site’s assets and grow its business to benefit its employees, the community and to support the NDA’s hazard reduction programme. “We have always placed great importance on constructive relationships with the community around Capenhurst and are committed to continuing to support and engage with our neighbours to ensure a bright future for the site.”

THE Medium Business of the Year category in this year’s Trinity Mirror Cheshire Business Awards is being sponsored by Chester Renaissance. A spokesperson said: “We are delighted to sponsor the Medium Business Award in our first year of operation. We recognise excellence in business will be key to the success of the Chester Renaissance programme. “The challenge for this initiative is to engage all business sectors to share the vision to make Chester a must-see European city by 2015 “The £1.5 billion programme of new developments and city centre improvements will ensure the city is a wonderful place.”

Chronicle September 10, 2008 MR RAYMOND WHEILDON

THE funeral has taken place of Raymond Wheildon, 77, of Acorn Hollows Nursing Home, Lostock Gralam.

Mr Wheildon was a dearly loved dad and grandad. For many years he farmed at Little Budworth and later worked as a gardener and chauffeur until his retirement. Family, relatives and friends attended the service at St Peter’s Church, Little Budworth with interment in the Churchyard, conducted by the Rev Brian Peace. Floral tributes were received. Arrangements: Pope Funeral Services, Winsford.

MIDDLEWICH AND DISTRICT WI ■ THE September meeting began with Jerusalem and a welcome to members and three visitors. Business was brief so it was soon time for the talk. Mr Alan Hadfield came to talk about ‘The Origin of Everyday Sayings’. It was a very interesting talk about sayings we use all the time. His interest began after helping his grandson with homework when he had to list everyday sayings. He got 42 that night but his grandfather went on to collect 2,500 and is still going. He read a short story written entirely with the sayings and just a few joining words, as an example of how easily we all use them. One I remember is eating ‘umble pie’. This was used after the Lord of the Manor had been huntingandtookallthebestofthe animal for himself and then his mencouldhavetheumbles–the innardsoftheanimal–whichthey made umble pie with. He offered everyone a playing card with a saying on the face of it and then explained each one, which was an original way of doing things. Everyone learned a lot and believed a lot of it. In October Celia Lea is showing members Cheshire Gardens, and the competition is a small arrangement of autumn leaves. Everyone is welcome.

Figures reveal fire service’s good work

MURDER SCENE: Police combed the flat at Peckforton Way where Rhys Butler’s body was found in May. IC280508crime-001 A NORTHWICH man has denied murdering a teenager in Castle earlier this year. Ian Broughton, 28, of Priory Street, has been in custody since being charged with murder on Wednesday, June 4 – just over a week after 17-year-old Rhys Butler, from Speke, Liverpool, was found dead in a flat on Peckforton Way. Broughton was one of five people

arrested but was the only one charged. Police said Mr Butler had been the victim of a “very physical assault”. Broughton was remanded in custody at Chester Crown Court by Recorder of Chester Judge Elgan Edwards on Tuesday morning. A pre-trial review will take place on November 24 ahead of a 10-day trial starting on January 14.

But they do underline that there is hope, help, rescue and survival as well as tragedy and loss. “The fire service today is an all-round rescue service. The figures illustrate why the public has such high confidence in the fire service.”

Founder member of sheltered housing team bows out after 30 years service A WEAVER Vale Housing Trust employee, who has helped to provide care and support to elderly people in Vale Royal for 30 years, is now planning to devote more time to herself after retiring on Tuesday. Valerie Breithaupt, 60, from Weaverham, a member of the Careline Independent Living Team, began working as an on-site sheltered housing warden for Vale Royal Borough Council in November 1978 and then went on to work as a mobile warden when the sheltered housing service was set up in October 1984. Up to her retirement, Valer-

ie was one of only two remaining members of the original sheltered housing team and she has seen many changes over the years including the transfer of housing stock from Vale Royal Borough Council to Weaver Vale Housing Trust in July 2002. Since 2005 Valerie has been working part time as a housekeeper and cook at the trust’s Fountain Court Independent Living Apartments, in Davenham, where residents and work colleagues presented her with a bouquet of flowers at a retirement party to thank her for her dedication.

FOND FAREWELL: Residents at Fountain Court Alan and Margaret Lord, join independent living team manager Crissy Watson in congratulating Valerie Breithaupt for her 30 years of dedicated service.

Youngsters are on a roll trying out traditional sport YOUNGSTERS from Winsford were presented with certificates by mayor Cllr Des Worthington after completing a summer bowls course. The courses were held at the Wharton Rec by Winsford Town Council and Vale Royal Borough Council in partnership with the Cheshire County Bowling Association. Qualified coaches put the youngsters through their paces, and the mayor was clearly impressed with what he saw. “It was great to see so many youngsters enjoying themselves,” he said. “From what I saw we might well have a few future champions in the making!”

It costs over £9m every year to keep the charity running, and with no government funding it relies completely upon donations. A Cheshire Fire Service spokesman said, “Unfortunately our firefighters see first hand the tragic consequences of road traffic collisions and I really hope that drivers will go along to their local fire station and support this event.” If you want to help, call the station on 01606 42283.

Homeowners’ help welcomed NORTHWICH Citizens Advice Bureau Service has expressed support for the government’s mortgage rescue package. Vale Royal CAB Manager Paul Nicholls said: “We welcome the package of measures announced by the government, particularly the changes that make it easier for people on Income Support to get help with paying their mortgage interest. We have been suggesting this kind of reform for some time. “We deal with many people who lose their jobs suddenly and have no savings to fall back on, and the government’s proposals could be an effective way of helping them to stay in their homes. “For these measures to work, lenders must play their part by showing forbearance, treating people in difficulties sympathetically and fairly, being willing to negotiate reasonable, affordable repayment arrangements and ensuring they take possession action only as a last resort. “We advocate the introduction without delay of a ‘pre-action protocol’ for mortgage arrears, to ensure that court action is only taken where all other options have failed.” Anyone worried about losing their home should contact the CAB on (01606) 596389. The help provided is free and confidential. The bureau is also looking for people interested in becoming volunteer advisers. For more information, call (01606) 596396 or e-mail recruitment@vrcab.org.uk.

They judged that 'Ruskin is a good school, with good quality teaching, learning and achievement.' The report highlights many areas of success for the school, stating that, 'A significant feature is the sense of community shared and celebrated by all who are connected with the school.' Care, guidance and support are judged to be 'outstanding' by the Inspectors, with 'the excellent House system…at the heart of a pastoral provision geared to meet and support the needs of the individual.' A further 'outstanding' grade was given for 'the school's commitment to equal opportunities and supporting all students so they achieve well.' The report goes on to say that, 'Particularly notable are the strong friendships that exist between students from the many different cultures' and 'Racial harmony prevails throughout the school community.' The Inspectors found that 'the curriculum is good, and the range of extra-curricular activities is excellent.' Headteacher Phil Mottershead said: 'I am delighted with the report. To be judged a good school overall, rather than just being satisfactory, is an achievement in itself, as the bar has been raised significantly higher since our last inspection in 2004.' Ruskin is therefore a school in which you can have confidence to do the very best for your child. Why not come and see for yourself at our Open Evening? We look forward to meeting you when you can see at first hand all we have to offer.

be missed so it’s best to make an early start. A good place to begin is the web, where you will find details of all the schools in your area. You can also contact your local authority for a list of local schools. When you have the list, there are different ways of finding out information about them. You can arrange a visit, read the schools’ most recent Ofsted reports and read the local authority’s and schools’ prospectuses. Once you have established a list of preferred choices, you can apply for places. But before submitting an application, you should read the school’s admission criteria, as different schools have different criteria. If the school you’re interested in is popular, the admissions criteria will give you a realistic idea of your child’s chances of getting a place there. The admissions criteria applies in the autumn term, a year before your child is due to start, and there are important dates by which you need to submit your application. The dates vary between local authorities so it’s best to check with your own authority and send off your form or apply online in plenty of time. You may jeopardise your application if you miss the deadline. If your child does not get a place at the school you prefer, you have a legal right to appeal. You will find details of how to make an appeal in the local authority’s admission letter outlining your offer. The letter will also specify a deadline that you must meet if you want to appeal. You may also be able to submit your appeal online. If your child has not been allocated a school place, you will need to contact the admissions team at your local authority so they can let you know which schools have places available.

New scheme to help children in danger of failing in three Rs

he Government is to redouble its efforts to raise standards for the one in five of 11-year-olds who fail to reach the expected level in literacy and numeracy at Key Stage 2, using cutting edge intensive catch up programmes.

Children’s Secretary Ed Balls has said that he will extend nationally groundbreaking schemes to help children in danger of falling behind in reading, writing and maths. In a letter to headteachers, Mr Balls said: “I know that like me, you will want to make sure that teaching of mathematics, reading and writing extends and excites all pupils and enables them to achieve the most of which they are capable. “We will continue to encourage effective phonics-based teaching of early reading, and we have introduced new ‘Support for Writing’ materials. We also want to help you to give children extra help early on if they are in danger of slipping behind, so to do this, we are extending Every Child A Reader, and introducing Every Child A Writer and Every Child Counts.” While the Government has halved the number of those failing to reach

the expected levels since 1997, when about six in 10 achieved the expected levels in English and maths, effort now needs to be focused on the remaining 20%, with early intervention at five, six, seven and eight for more than 100,000 children a year by 2011, who need oneto-one tuition so they are ready for secondary school. Groundbreaking programmes providing one-to-one tuition to children in danger of falling behind in writing and maths are being launched by Children’s Secretary Ed Balls this month, which the Government believes could put this country at the international cutting edge in boosting attainment in the three Rs. Mr Balls believes that while there have been unprecedented improvements in primary literacy and numeracy rates over the last decade, more needs to be done to raise the bar over the next decade. Intervening early is crucial to stop children falling behind, which can seriously handicap their whole education and working lives. The Government is investing £169m on these innovative programmes over the next three years. About 23,500 children will be covered by all programmes this month rising to more than 100,000 by 2011.

New menus being introduced across England include healthy versions of old favourites – from traditional roasts

to chilli con carne and shepherd’s pie; from home-made salmon fingers and stir fries to risotto, with fresh fruit, vegetables and salads. Junk food has already been banned from being sold in canteens and school vending machines – but the new standards will specify the maximum (fat, saturated fat, sugar, salt) and minimum (carbohydrate, protein, fibre, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, calcium, iron, zinc) nutrient value of an average

Ehzivxmwiqirx jiexyvi school lunch. The standards will be statutory for secondary schools in England from September 2009. Children, Schools and Families Secretary of State, Ed Balls, said the nutrient standards were a vital step in fighting childhood obesity. But he urged schools to make tucking into school lunch more enjoyable for children starting this term – particularly in secondaries. He warned that 11-year-olds might be put off eating healthy dinners and miss out on the benefits of healthy food, unless there is a proper lunch culture and they are treated like proper paying customers. Mr Balls pointed to experience of the best schools, where simple, straightforward steps can combat the historical drop-off and raise take up. These include: l staggering lunch breaks, using swipe card systems or letting pupils pre-book lunches online to cut queues l younger children eating separately from older pupils; strong stay-on-site policies, if heads choose to use them l replacing ugly, plastic compartmentalised food trays, with proper china and cutlery l actively marketing healthy lunches to families; and l involving young people in drawing up menus. Provisional figures from the 2008 school lunch take-up survey, published by the School Food Trust and Local Authority Caterers’ Association in July, showed the corner has finally been turned on school dinners. It showed that more than three million children are eating school dinners daily – an increase of around 50,000 extra pupils over last year; a two percentage points rise to 43% in primary schools, while take up in secondary schools has now levelled out, after a steep fall, at 37%. The final figures will be published in the next few weeks. Mr Balls added: “School catering staff and teachers are doing some fantastic work. July’s provisional take-up survey figures showed we are finally turning the corner – as all the experts accept, including Jamie Oliver. ”School catering is a really tough job and a culture change in schools and wider society of this size doesn’t simply happen overnight. I understand schools’ concerns about the time, effort and cost that introducing healthy lunches take. ”But the bottom line is six out of 10 secondary pupils are still not eating school dinners. Schools, parents, children and Government need to tackle obesity together and we make no apologies for introducing tough nutrient standards. ”Moving to secondary school is a big moment in anyone’s life. Many children, who eat healthy lunches at primary school, stop when they go to senior school – put off by long lunch queues; unpopular menus; or having to eat in the same room as teenagers six or seven years older then them. The fact is that children are not going to eat lunch at school if none of their friends are. ”The best way of keeping 11-year-olds eating at school is to treat them like the proper paying customers they are.”

Joint effort leads to arrest of suspected loan shark A SUSPECTED loan shark was snared this week in a joint operation between police and Trading Standards to tackle illegal money lending in Winsford. Craig Batin, 38, was arrested on suspicion of money laundering, and later charged, after his home on the Wharton Estate was raided on Wednesday, September 3. Police officers also found what

they believe to be a stun gun and drugs, thought to be amphetamines. Insp Dave Snasdell, of Winsford Neighbourhood Policing Unit, said: “The warrant was carried out as a result of a number of complaints about a person who has allegedly been trading as a credit collector. “I am pleased Trading Standards and the North West Illegal Money

Crackdown on uninsured motorists CHESHIRE Police have seized their 10,000th uninsured vehicle since legislation came into force in 2005. In speed-related collisions, 12.4% of drivers did not hold any insurance. If a car is on lease or on hire purchase and it is driven by an uninsured driver it will go back to the HPI company – no questions asked. To date, Cheshire Police have sent 81 seized cars straight back to the HP companies with a total value of £794,338 On average 350-400 cars/motorcycles a month are being seized for no insurance. Around 200 a month are crushed or otherwise disposed of. If you are caught driving without insurance then your next insurance premium will be increased by a minimum of 100% and in most cases by 200%. This means that the average cost will jump from £400 to around £1,200 per year for a first offence. Brian Rogers, Roads Policing Inspector said “The message is clear to uninsured drivers; we are watching you and you will be caught. If you are caught, not only do you face a sizeable fine, but we will seize your car and you face having it sent back to the hire purchase company or having it crushed.”

CHESHIRE Trading Standards is warning that bottles of counterfeit vodka could cause serious health risks including blindness. The fake Imperial Vodka contains methanol and residents must report finding any such bottles to Cheshire County Council Trading Standards officers. Each counterfeit bottle has a code reading which looks like 102234 04/08/02 as well as QI: 1445c embossed around the bottom of the bottle. Community and communications executive member Nora Dolphin said: “These fake bottles are

extremely dangerous. “I would ask people to be on the alert and not to buy – and certainly not to drink – this counterfeit vodka. If opened the vodka has a chemical smell like nail varnish and if anyone sees Imperial Vodka on sale anywhere other than a Spar store, they should contact Trading Standards. “There are no such problems with authentic bottles of Imperial Vodka sold in Spar’s supermarket chain stores.” ■ Anyone finding the fake vodka should ring Trading Standards on 08454 040506.

Many seats have already been snapped up even though he isn’t due to appear until the end of October. Regular appearances on TV, including every episode of BBC2’s Mock the Week, have made Frankie one of the most sort-after comics on the circuit. He spent most of his early years in comedy touring and performing at festivals across the country before winning the Daily Telegraph Open Mic Award in 1996.

By Jane Matzen In recent years he has also worked with and written material for Jimmy Carr’s television show Distraction and also appeared in They Think It’s All Over, Law of the Playground, and 8 Out of 10 Cats – which he also helped write. His DVD which hits the shelves in November. ■ Frankie Boyle Live! is at the Civic Hall, Winsford, on Saturday, October 25, at 8pm. Tickets cost £17.50 and are available online at www.valeroyal.gov.uk or via the box office hotline on telephone 01606 867539.

Opportunity knocks for new faces thanks to comic Paddy STAR of Phoenix Nights and Max And Paddy’s Road To Nowhere, Paddy McGuinness gives talented newcomers a chance when he brings his latest show to Winsford next week.

Soon after he landed the part he made his own as Paddy the doorman in an episode of That Peter Kay Thing which lead to the massive spin-off series Phoenix Nights.

Lorraine Shuker

Caroline Young

DAVENHAM and Sandiway Players kick off the new season later this month with three of Alan Bennett’s inspired Talking Heads. The first one, Her Big Chance, stars Jennifer Oates as aspiring actress Lesley (played by Julie Walters in the television series).

By Jane Matzen crumbles when her strict regime is disrupted. The evening ends with Soldering On, starring Caroline Young as the recently bereaved Muriel (played on television by Stephanie Cole).

Starry cast in Chekhov classic

NO wrestling fan will want to miss the grudge match at the Victoria Hall in Hanley next week as masked grappler Kendo Nagasaki makes his first return to the ring for eight years. The Samurai superstar retired back in 2000, but LDN British Champion Yorghos Christopolous stole his prized sword at a recent book signing. Now, in front of the Sky Sports cameras, Nagasaki takes on Christopolous as the main event in a special challenge ladder match. Christopolous said: “His management team tried to bury me on national TV by stating I was worthless, so I took his sword. I told him if he wants it, he can fight for it.” Nagasaki will team up with ‘Filthy’ Phil Powers to take on the team of Christopolous and Hakan Sozveren, and invited guest Robbie Brookside. ■ The wrestling starts at 7.30pm on Saturday, September 20. Tickets are £10 adults, £8 children, with family tickets £30; phone the box office on 0870 060 6649.

THE remarkable story of the Bee Gees from early pop success to 70s icons will be played out at the Victoria Hall in Hanley later month. The Gibb brothers are closely replicated by reallife brothers Darren and Gary Simmons, who impersonate Barry and Robin, and are joined by Jarrod Loughlin as Maurice. Together, they tour the UK with their show Jive Talkin’, recreating classic tracks such as Stayin’ Alive, How Deep Is Your Love? and Night Fever. The Simmons brothers even once sang live on radio with Barry and Robin, and listeners were unable to tell the difference. In their show, the perfect vocals are backed by a full live band and a live strings section which create the complete Bee Gees experience. Spokesman Paul Lewis said: “With the untimely death of Maurice Gibb in 2003, the surviving brothers indicated they probably wouldn’t perform again as the Bee Gees. Consequently, Jive Talkin’ is the nearest today’s fans can get to a live Bee Gees show.” ■ Jive Talkin’ starts at 7.30pm on Saturday, September 27. Tickets are priced £14.50-£16.50, phone the box office on 0870 060 6649 or visit the www.the ambassadors.com/ victoriahall website.

Enjoy this weekend and gather your strength Aries, for the full moon on Monday sees dramatic events which shake up both your personal and your professional life.

You are in need of some sort of a break. If you don’t take some time out for yourself then you risk making bad decisions over the rest of this month Gemini. A past issue in love is still on your mind and it’s time to move on before you lose out on all current situations have to offer you. Call now and I’ll tell you a secret in love.

Friends let you down with promises they have made. They weren’t really friends to begin with then though were they Cancer? It’s time to narrow down your circle and this weekend offers you the perfect opportunity to see close ones for who they really are. Call my starline now to hear why it’s worth wearing your heart on your sleeve this week.

You have been living life in the past but your ruling planet the Sun helps you to move forward and to see events for how they really were, rather than how you would like to have remembered them. Aries and Gemini’s can help you boost your finances and your reputation. Call my starline now for a peak of the great opportunities available.

You don’t seem to be able to keep up with all that is going on and you are taking advice from faces you would not usually trust. Careful Virgo or you could end up losing out.

You don’t seem to be too sure if a close one has lied to you or not.

Fellow Librans know the truth behind a lie. Call now for clarity and answers.

You have such a busy life at the moment that it is no surprise that close ones are feeling shut away. Try to talk to your loved ones and make them a part of all that is going on.

This is a great week for promotions. Just don’t let that ambitious nature of you force you to push for things you don’t want. You had a gameplan and it is imperative that you stick to it.

There is a lack of energy to your chart which is making it hard for you to know what and who you can trust. Take some time out to recharge your batteries. This week has much to show and teach you. Your element of earth helps you face and solve a financial worry that’s been on your mind. Call now to reveal your true calling.

You have been agreeing to things which you don’t really want just to keep your close ones happy. The only problem is though Aquarius that they know far too well and they are going to make you face your feelings, even if you intend on resisting. Honesty leads to success and happiness, don’t fight it. Call now to better understand your sign.

It is clear from your stars that you are lacking confidence in something which I know you could do in your sleep. Nerves have got the better of you and it’s time to face your fears. Great things await you by facing these challenges head on, especially on Thursday. Call my starline now to hear why this is a prime time to shake up career affairs.

Van’s touch of luxury

AN AIR of uncertainty hangs over the future of Britain’s anits large sliding sider door and cavernous loadspace which even included nual MOT test.

with Ian Johnson

THE triumphal march of French brands into the halls of light commercials continues unabated.

There may be worries about car sales but the light van is essential to delivering the vital ingredients of everyday life and as such, manufacturers are sitting up and taking notice of this important sector. Some products, already good by modern standards have been refreshed, and one such is the Citroën Berlingo which has been given a major makeover in common with its Peugeot Partner cousin. New Berlingo went on sale in June offering higher standards of practicality, versatility, choice and driver friendliness. Berlingo has grown somewhat over the earlier model, making more room in the light van arena for the smaller Nemo. Berlingo is now available in short and long versions. The short versions, at 4.38m are 24cm longer than their predecessors, while the long model is 4.63m long. Both versions are 8cm wider than the original and both share a common, 3.5cm longer, wheelbase of 2.73m. Dependent of model, there will be a choice of 625, 750 and 850kg payload versions. The short models can accommod-

The LX 1.6HDi 90hp L1 version I drove came with a neat Trafficmaster Smartnav satellite navigation system plus Trackstar stolen vehicle tracking. There is the choice of three engines – one petrol and two diesels mated to five speed manual gearboxes. The petrol is a 1.6i 16V 90hp and the two 1.6HDi diesels offer a choice of 75 or 92hp. Both 1.6HDi engines can be operated on up to 30 per cent bio diesel without being modified. High levels of comfort and safety are provided for driver and crew with ABS, EBD and ASR plus ESP all available. My test van was certainly a best expression of how versatile a modern van can be with

ate two Euro pallets on a 1.8m load deck and have a 3.3cu.m load compartment. The longer versions have a 3.7cu.m load compartment which opens the field considerably for Berlingo. An interesting and useful feature is a modular cabin option enabling longer load lengths of up to 3.0m to be carried and increases load compartment volume by an additional 0.4cu.m. But in the cabin Citroën has made a masterstroke of design in enabling a three seat configuration if required. Citroen always makes sure it delivers its light commercials loaded with as many goodies as possible.

a handy torch. The Extenso seating arrangement which gives the room for an occasional third person is an important extra for operator who need to accommodate an extra passenger from time to time. Up to six airbags are fitted and the dash mounted gearchange is smooth and simple to use. Vans do seem to be getting more like cars these days with a surprisingly high quality audio system with steering column mounted controls. It is even possible to have Bluetooth mobile phone connectivity, cruise control and speed limiters, automatic actuation of headlights and wipers and parking sensors, all of which were included on my test van and certainly upped the ante in terms of who can produce the best glam van.

It all stems from what is perceived as ‘gold plating’ of EU regulations. Iin EU law the minimum requirement for regular vehicle ‘in service’ testing (MOT) is every two years). This was noted by Gordon Brown at the CBI conference in November 2005, who cited the annual MOT as an example of such ‘gold plating’– suggesting that two yearly MOTs in Britain should be considered.There was supposed to be a consultation review dealing with the future of the MOT but it is still waiting to happen and Britain’s MOT Trade Forum is not happy. The Forum believes that three years on, any further uncertainty in the MOT industry is totally unacceptable. The Government should either publish the consultation now or drop the two yearly MOT Test proposal. The MOT Test is carried out by over 19,000 Testing Stations employing over 51,000 MOT Testers as well as additional supporting staff. This sizeable industry has to make an ongoing positive contribution to road safety. It is no coincidence that European road accident trends indicate that countries with annual Tests also have lower deaths and injuries caused by road accidents. A two year test might be fine for the rest of Europe, but in Britain it can only be perceived as lowering standards Ian Johnson

Unlucky Vics pay the penalty Torquay United 2 Northwich Vics 1

EVEN the statistics reckoned Vics deserved a point in Devon on Sunday. Officially they had 53% of the possession and, certainly after the opening quarter, were every bit as good as Torquay. But they were beaten by a penalty in the last minute of injury time and remain bottom of the Blue Square Premier League for at least another week. The Gulls opened strongly and scored in the 10th minute, the goal being created by former

Blue Sq Premier

HOME-WOODS THE HERO: Northwichraised Steve Woods. Weaverham boy Steve Woods, son of the ex-Winsford United and Barnton manager Tony Woods.

He sent in a deep free kick from the right to the far post where Wayne Carlisle controlled the ball, swivelled and finished in one smooth movement. A Mark Roberts header, which went wide, was the best Vics effort, but by half-time they were well in contention and levelled eight minutes after the break. Firstly, though, Matt Crowell was to blaze a 10-yard volley over the bar from Darryn Stamp’s chested pass. But in the 53rd minute, Stamp picked out Lee Steele and the veteran

striker netted inside the far post. Within five minutes, Crowell was denied a penalty when he appeared to have been bundled over. And it was from the spot the issue was decided, though not until the 95th minute. Mike Welch was adjudged to have pulled back Elliott Benyon and Tim Sills struck home. Northwich: Tynan, Aspin, Welch, Roberts, Grand, King (Mullan 46), Crowell, Allan, Flynn, Stamp (Barratt 69), Steele (Phil Marsh 90). Attendance: 1,752 Match Rating: 6/10

Problems exposed Football - UniBond Premier League Witton Albion 1 Ossett Town 1

WITTON’S attacking limitations were cruelly exposed in their own goalmouth on Saturday.

That Ossett were able to steal a last-ditch equaliser having been outplayed for most of the game clearly shows where Albion’s problems lie. Ossett should have been soundly beaten long before the close, but Witton are too insipid, too lightweight. But they also have hope in new signing Lee Thompson, who scored and fitted the physical bill as a striker. They were undone by a long punted free kick from Nathan Hay which found its way to centre back Matt Daly and his toe poke came off goalkeeper Greg Smith and a post before entering the net. Albion still had time to force a couple of corners, but in keeping with most of their attacks – and there were plenty – they came to nothing. Goalkeeper Smith was only

twice called to desperate action: to cut out a long ball as Craig Hall sped through and to magnificently stop a Daz Thornton rasper. Otherwise it was Albion on top, but with too little purpose. There were goal attempts but Witton did not look like scoring until they introduced Thompson from the bench. Within minutes he had fired in two on-target shots and in the 82nd minute met Drew’s free kick at the far post and headed the ball inside the opposite upright. When Ben Hardy was dismissed for a dreadful lunge at Scott Willis in the 89th minute it looked all over for Ossett – and it should have been. Albion’s defence had played soundly throughout until Daly was left unmarked to claim a point. Witton: G Smith; Schwarz Donnelly, Burke, Scott; Proffitt, Drew, Willis (Skelton 90), Gahgan (S Smith 77); Lugsden, Settle (Thompson 59). UNDER PRESSURE: Keiron Lugsden Att: 329 holds off Bob Pacey.

Champs start with a defeat Amateur football RUDHEATH, who won every game in becoming Mid Cheshire Sunday League champions last season, kicked off the new campaign – by getting beat. They lost to Pockets, but it was the performance of another Winsford team, St Joseph’s, that looks ominous. They netted seven with seven different goalscorers against promoted Lion. Most Cheshire League fixtures, including those of Barnton and Lostock Gralam, were casualties of the weather. Saturday: One – Barnton v Greenall Padgate.

Ex-Vics boss is top manager FORMER Northwich Vics boss Jimmy Quinn was made manager of Division Two side Bournemouth last week. Quinn, 49, quit as manager of Cambridge United in the summer and, in non-league, had previously managed Shrewsbury Town as well as Vics, between 2001 and 03, making 46 appearances and scoring eight goals. Bournemouth, who started the season with a 15 points deduction, are among Quinn’s many former clubs.

Attack shaping up well for new season Liverpool Sefton 0 Winnington Park 2

NEW-LOOK Winnington continued to produce impressive pre-season form, on Saturday. They passed the ball around well and Peter Evans and Alastair Buckle

led a threatening attack well. They combined for the opening goal, Buckle feeding Evans who glided past two challenges before deftly dinking the ball over the advancing keeper. Steve Campagnaro also

Hockey menaced down the right, showing his opposite number a clean pair of heels several times. Rob Bowden played a key role in the second goal just after the break, Buckle de-

flecting his pass over the keeper for Robin Oakley to fire home. Park keeper Andrew Palin did well to keep a clean sheet, saving well when Sefton came back into it. Winnington 2nds shared 10 goals with Sefton 2nds. They were unlucky not to

claim a notable scalp, especially after leading 3-0 and then 5-2. Mike Dodd created goals for Julian Buckle (2) and Ric Evans to put Winnington in charge. Dodd also scored twice before Sefton’s late comeback making the score 5-5.

Winnington relegated NEIGHBOURS Northwich and Winnington Park will meet competitively again next season, assuming Northwich can complete the formalities of promotion from the Cheshire League Second Division at the weekend.

Park were beaten at home and are relegated from the County League. Northwich are again top of their division and the two seem destined to meet in the middle. Oakmere could still replace Winnington and Weaverham are not without hope of catching Northwich.

RIGHT MOVE ABROAD COUNTY LEAGUE Division Two

Winnington Park 61ao Bredbury St Marks 64-3

WINNINGTON were relegated to the Cheshire League.

Victory would have extended their slim chance of survival by a week, but their batting was meek with only Jonny Wales (19) producing a meaningful knock and Dave Hine and Glin Cherian the others to make double-figures. When Matt Atherton fielded brilliantly to run out the dangerous looking Dan Wood, Park had a sniff of a chance, but with skipper Chris Wood smashing several boundaries Bredbury coasted to victory in 22 overs.

MELLER BRAGGINS CHESHIRE LEAGUE Division Two

Northwich 150-6 (25 overs) Barnton 75-3 (25 overs)

NORTHWICH returned to the top with the efforts of groundstaff and players to get the pitch playable as worthy as the 10-point derby draw.

The pitch had been covered all week and on Thursday anything waterproof – sheets, mats, canvas – was laid across the square. Friday and Saturday morning were dedicated to mopping up. Though Barnton captain Steve Yar-

Cricket

wood was happy to start on time, the umpires declared the ground unplayable and insisted on a two-hour wait for conditions to improve. Officials agreed to a minimum 25 overs per innings. Northwich, desperate for bonus points were pegged back by the Langham family, as dad Jeff and son Neil opened the bowling. John O'Sullivan fell for one and Lee Evans a duck as Northwich fell to 15-2. Leading batsman Martyn East was caught for 35. Northwich teetered on 57-4 from 15 overs and their determination to stage the game looked to have backfired. They were rescued by the middle order as John Hughes and Mark Rebbeck made some big shots in their respective 35 and 46. The younger Langham finished with 3-53 and Simon Hancock 2-29 from three overs. The total was out of the visitors’ reach and they settled for the draw from the first ball, but the three wickets Northwich claimed were enough to dislodge Barrow at the top. Northwich are a point ahead of Barrow and Weaverham, who were rained off, are a further 17 points adrift. But their 2nds played and drew at home to Barrow. Weaverham scored 176-8 (Darren Falland 41, Phil Harris 35, Neil Gerrard 32), Barrow, after being 15-4, 102-7 (Gerrard 3-9). OAKMERE 2nds beat the weather – and Mere. They bowled out the visitors for 101 (Mike Cushion 4-23) and made a little history when 12-year-old Robbie Jones took three victims in nine balls without conceding a run. Two of them were victims of 14-year-old wicketkeeper Tom Clutterbuck, taking him past the Division A record for dismissals in a season. Dan Wood (48no) and Doug Pinnington (21) top-scored in Oakmere’s 102-4.

Northwich 73 Moore 7

WITH opponents simply not of the same class, Northwich just kept scoring more at Moss Farm on Saturday. After Hoylake had withdrawn from the Cheshire Cup, giving Northwich a bye, the Moss Farmers picked Moore from the fixture pool. Although from two standards lower and hopelessly outclassed, the visitors fought pluckily throughout. The Blacks were without at least six 1st XV squad members but their strength in depth meant the side Kevin Greaves selected looked the part and they cruised through the gears in an 11-try blitz. New stand-off and playmaker Matthew Bebbington converted nine of the tries and dictated proceedings from start to finish. All players performed well but Aussie second row forward Nigel Farrow caught the eye because of how quickly he fitted in. Northwich led 38-0 at the break with tries from Rick Smith, Stacey Hosking, Joel Barber, Adam Bown, Gez Gough and Jamie Miritana. Moore did manage a second-half try and conversion but yet more Northwich points rolled in from Smith, Bown, Barber, Chris James and Hosking. Northwich open their North Two West league campaign at Sandbach on Saturday. The 2nds host Aldwinians, 3rds at Ormskirk. Other score: Wirral Junior Colts 22 Northwich 5 (Williams try).

Cycling

WEAVER Valley CC are cashing in on Great Britain’s huge success at the Beijing Olympics cycling. Since the medals started to pile up the club membership has surged and now stands at more than 100, many of them schoolchildren. Husband and wife Rob Kilby and Jayne Kew were in tandem in producing excellent results. Jayne recorded a new Weaver Valley CC club record and personal best of 2hrs 12mins at the Holme Valley Wheelers 50 miles time trial. Rob, meanwhile, rode to an impressive 2:00.12 and followed that by clocking 224.81 miles at the West Cheshire 12-hour time trial. Jayne covered 210.6 miles in the stormy conditions. Sunday’s club run leaves Hartford RBL Club for Two Mills, Wirral. Club nights continue at the same venue on Mondays 8.30pm. Dave Astles can be contacted on 01606 833783 for membership details.

Northwich show their class in romp

AN experimental Winnington bowed out of the Cheshire Cup on Saturday. Wirral will be among Park’s Euromanx League opponents this season and Winnington can use them as a yardstick for the standard required in their new surroundings. But they believe the result to be no pointer for their fortunes. Junior colt Dan Blades was given responsibility for the key position of scrum half in his first senior outing. He did not disappoint and gave a creditable performance in the absence of Sam Barton, putting himself in contention for the first league

game next week. With the forwards looking good in lineouts and the loose, it was simple mistakes by Park that were making the difference between the two teams. The scrum was improved and Harry Stubbs, Phil Parrott and captain Will Burgess won good ball for Blades. Rob Garbett scored a try for Park and Ben Elliot, back in action after breaking a leg in February, kicked a penalty. Slack defending let Wirral cause problems in the midfield and they capitalised on the kicking of their stand-off. Andy Evans was Park’s star

FORMER Winsford Sailing Club member Nikki Birrell and crew Alexandra Rickham are currently placed fifth overall in the SKUD 18 class at the Beijing Paralympics. They have finished fifth in both their races so far and Birrell said: “We are feeling confident for the rest of the week.” Birrell, 22, rose to prominence alongside his brother Christian as a junior in Mirror dinghies at Winsford in the 1990s. He and Rickham started among the favourites for a medal. Now Knutsford based, Birrell suffers from a mild form of cerebral palsy.

DESPITE Winnington scoring the first try through Matthew Dodd, the Northwich pack – older, heavier and taller – won the day in the Burrows Hill derby. Will Oultram (2) and Dave Harvey (2) tries and three conversions and two penalties from Carl Senior wrapped things up for Northwich. Park 3rds lost to Hutton 19-7 (Joe Ellis try, con); Park’s Senior Colts drew with Aspull 12-12 (Gary Dykes, Josh Gibbins tries; Chris Jolley con).

Vics in double swoop as they seek first win

MAAMRIA ANSWERS CASE FOR DEFENCE

NORTHWICH Vics make their ninth attempt at victory on Saturday with two new signings likely to make their home debuts.

Manager Dino Maamria moved this week to fix his leaky defence by signing Simon Grand and the appropriately named Mark King. Grand, 24, made a promising start to his career playing 40 games for Rochdale before joining Carlisle, for another 30 first team appearances, in the Conference and Division Two. But since 2007-07 he has played less than 20 senior games at Carlisle, Grimsby and then Morecambe. King, a left back of central defender, is 20 and made a handful of appearances for Accrington Stanley last season. Both men are on non-contract terms and could face Forest Green Rovers at the Marston’s Arena on Saturday. Off the pitch there is still no sign of the proposed buy-out of Arena landowner Mike Connett going ahead. A consortium remains keen to purchase the land but Vics owner Jim Rushe said: “It has stalled. It is just the economic situation.” ■ WITTON Albion were due to give a debut to a centre-half at Buxton last night (Tuesday). Neil Smith, who has played for Chorley and Leigh but been out of football for 10 months because of business commitments, is the newcomer. On Saturday, he could partner

By John Buckley Brian Pritchard at the back as Witton begin their FA Cup campaign in the 1st qualifying round at Bamber Bridge, who are midtable in the UniBond North. Striker Lee Thompson, who joined last week from Prescot Cables, made a good first impression against Ossett. Manager Nigel Deeley said: “He gives us a bit of steel and can hold the ball up.” He could make the front twosome with Rod Thornley, who returns after England physio duty. Tuesday is replay night at Wincham Park should the tie be drawn. ■ WINSFORD United aim to sign a striker in time for the trip to rock-bottom Atherton Collieries on Saturday. “We need a man who can guarantee us 20 goals a season,” said manager Joe Gibiliru. The player he has in mind has UniBond League experience, but Gibiliru wants to be certain of his fitness first. Tony Sayer, Mike Sawtell, John Riley and Mick McGraa all return after various injuries, but Phil Mason’s damaged ankle may not have healed in time. Meanwhile, Mark Calland has a small fracture of the right leg and is likely to be out six weeks. Atherton have lost all six games so far, United are unbeaten away.

Bowls NORLEY completed a men’s and women’s double on Sunday, winning the Whitby Cup for the men and the Mid Cheshire Ladies League knockout. The mid-table Section Four side started the Whitby final against Winsford Cons B 44 points to the good on handicap – and won by seven. Cons made a good fist of what was always a fightback, winning 10 of the 12 games. Tom Sandbach’s 21-8 victory over Don Morris edged them closer, but victories by Sybil Streeton and Mavis Hodgetts proved crucial. Norley’s women-only team, meanwhile, won the ladies knockout by beating Barnton CC A 198-155 at Moulton. ■ ALAN Lowe, of Winnington Park, won his first major award by beating Joe Illidge, of Rudheath Private, 21-12 in the final of the Challenge Trophy. Lowe, ironically a Rudheath resident, defeated the Waltons to reach the final – that is Peter Walton by 11 shots and Nick Walton by one. Chris Shaw won the Stan Frith Junior Merit. The Moulton youngster beat Craig Shaw (Castle) by five and Daniel Moores (Comberbach) by 15 to reach the final against Castle’s Matt Hamman, Shaw winning 21-17. Beech Tree reached the Cheshire Norman Cup final on Saturday, beating Winsford Cons by just three chalks in a thrilling semi, 187-175. They will play Altrincham Borough, who defeated Winnington Park 190-167.

Relegated Winnington deny merger rumours WINNINGTON Park were relegated after 34 years in the County League on Saturday – and then blasted rumour-mongers who claim a merger is on the cards. Chairman Ian Johns was so concerned at the strength of the stories that he issued a statement detailing the strength, determination and independence at the Rec. He told the Chronicle: “A merger will not happen, no chance. No such thing as a merger, we would lose our identity. It is not an op-

Knockout success for Norley

Cricket Winnington are believed to have held talks with Barnton in recent months, but no common ground was found, and they have been linked in the past with Northwich, who confirm no talks have taken place. Johns said: “Following our relegation, the club are in the process of a rebuilding plan to bounce back stronger. Emphasis is on recruitment of both senior, under 18, 11 and under nine players as well as coaching

coaches, including an exfull-time professional. “The local rumour has spread talk of a merger, but I can say as a player and officer for the past 39 years that while we have the opportunity to rebuild with a nucleus of committed players and a well-motivated group of under 17s, there has never been any discussion or consideration of a merger and Winnington will be competing in the Meller Braggins League next season and bidding to return stronger than ever.” Winnington plan to pro-

either 10 or 20-over format if there is sufficient interest. Any club interested can contact secretary Geoff Wales on 01606 79094. Oakmere will replace Park in the County League if they retain second place in the Cheshire League in Saturday’s finale at home to Ashley. And Park will play old rivals Northwich next season if results fall right at the top of Division Two. They host Chester County Officers and Weaverham, who have an outside chance of

The 24-year-old oarsman, who was in the British eight pipped by Canada in Beijing, is now based in London though he grew up 200 yards from the club, where he emerged as a future international. “We have only just managed to pin Matt down. It may be late but there is still plenty to celebrate,” said spokeswoman Carolyn MacRitchie. MP Mike Hall and local dignitaries have been invited.
