THat was the claim from councillor Roger Barrow as the government was asked for a justified explanation as to why plans for a northern bypass to reduce traffic on the road were rejected.

It came during Chichester District Council's meeting to discuss the five options from Highways England. A public consultation finished yesterday.

Goldsmith in demand for school funds

by Carl Eldridge news@sussexpost.co.uk COUNTY council chief Louise Goldsmith has warned that funding pressures and policy changes will damage schools and children’s learning.

THe West Sussex County Council leader has written to Secretary of State for Education, Justine Greening, to plead for support for issues which have “built up over years of under-funding”.

It follows delays to the implementation of a new National Funding Formula (NFF) for schools, something for which headteachers and the council have called.

She said: “Central government policy is placing councils in an untenable position of presiding over real cuts to school budgets, to the detriment of our children and their educational outcomes.

“I have written to say we urgently need support to resolve a number of funding issues caused by a range of policy changes and made worse by this delay.”

THe council is in the process of preparing budget estimates for 2017/18 and beyond. Prior to the current year, the council had not increased its Council Tax since 2010/11, saving the average Band D taxpayer £523. During this time

the council sought to maintain frontline services whilst taking out £162m in savings.

Goldsmith added: “THe budget pressures for 2017/18 mean that to continue protecting essential frontline services, we are forced to consider passing unfunded cost burdens on to schools.

“We have absolutely no capacity to absorb the cuts to the Education Support Grant (up to £5.7m by 2018/19) or new costs such as the Apprenticeship Levy (£1.7m).

“I know headteachers have expressed bitter disappointment and frustration at the delay in the implementation of the (NFF), particularly as schools and academies in West Sussex are the fifth lowest funded nationally.”

National average funding per pupil in England is £4,636. In West Sussex funding per pupil is £438 below the national average. If West Sussex schools were funded at this level they would receive an extra £44.7million per annum.

Headteachers say, in the current context, they may consider a reduced curriculum; increasing class sizes; reviewing opening hours; reducing school trips, visits and work experience, and before and after school activities.

Band's marching orders New HQ's needed because of noise

by Carl Eldridge news@sussexpost.co.uk MARCHING band cadets fear they could be drummed out of business unless they find a new home.

Chichester’s Nautical Training Corp have been told they are too noisy for their present base and must leave.

TS Sturdy musicians have had complaints about the volume of practicing from neighbours at North Mundham Village Hall.

Treasurer Carolyn Barnes says the search is on for a new abode to avert closure of the group for youngsters aged between eight and 18.

She said: “It would be such a shame if we can't find a new home, not only would the community lose out on our

performances, but most importantly, the children would as well. THey have formed close friendships and a bond and would lose out on that and the skills they learn.

“TS Sturdy lead the St George's day parade every year and we are well received where ever we perform, whether it be at a fete, open day or parades.

"We also need to be able to park our minibus and trailer wherever we move to, as our current parking arrangement runs out in December.

"We do not receive any help from councils or the government. We do receive one grant from the Rotary club.

All our officers, helpers and committee are volunteers.” *If you can help please contact carolynbarnes@live.co.uk

SOUTHERN Water has been urged to improve their service by the Consumer Council for Water (CCWater) their service after a rise in complaints from customers.

A report by the consumer watchdog reveals that Southern Water was the industry’s worst performer for the fourth successive year, after a rise of more than ten per cent in written customer complaints in 2015/16.

Sir Tony Redmond, London and South East Chair of the Consumer Council for Water, said: “We’re disappointed by the performance of Southern, who have failed to completely get to grips with the problems that have caused them to be among the worst performers.”

“I written to them and have asked them to report back to me by the end of October on what action they have taken, or are planning to take, to reduce complaints.

"We want to see that progress is being made.”

CCWater’s report shows that Southern Water failed to close the gap on the rest of the industry in 2015/16, with complaints receieved more than twice the industry average.

Post COPERFORMA, the firm running patient transport services in Sussex is not on the brink of collapse it said in a statement on Wednesday.

It took over the contract in April and had a disastrous start, with crews turning up late or not at all.

Performance has improved but two sub-contractors have since collapsed, with the second leaving staff left with unpaid wages.

Producers hope that the pop star will attract a much younger audience when the talent show moves to ITV. It is said that the show has already tried to lure the likes of Kylie Minogue, Sir Paul McCartney, Jess Glynne and Phil Collins.

“Producers want the show to be a big success in its first year on ITV," said an insider.

“Getting Tom Jones and Will.i.am

“They think Tom ticks both boxes."

One-stop shop Arranging Insurance for insurance in Bognor Regis for over cover

25 YEARS

Business is booming for manager Mike and his team at Worrell and Fry

wading through the myriad of comparison sites and direct insurers promoting this offer and that deal, it is ever so reassuring to realise that not all insurance brokers are the same.

TALK to Michael Maskell about insurance and within the merest hint of time you’ll realise just why business is booming for Worrell Fry and Co Limited.

Worrell Fry, situated in busy Aldwick Road, has been satisfying customers for 25 years in Bognor Regis and their unswerving commitment to a principled approach means that not only do they have satisfied folks repeating their business, but a new tranche of clientele keen to let the experts do the work on their behalf.

The company, which prides itself on being innovative and excelling in identifying insurance solutions for both individuals and companies, takes time to identify specific requirements and make recommendations that offer wide ranging cover at competitive premiums.

Manager Michael explains: “Along with this modern approach to insurance systems we still maintain traditional values of professionalism and service which endorses our status of being a trusted insurance broker in Sussex, Hampshire and farther afield.”

The company insists on a personal touch when it comes to acting on behalf of their clients and in an era when it’s all the rage to go online and start

And mums. dads and children took advantage of the members' devotion to the cause and seemed to have bundles of fun working the model trains on tracks and enjoying rides on the minature railway sitting astride the steam locomotive.

Michael adds: “It may be considered an old

So, let’s say you get a quote for £200 for cover and are happy with that, then that’s fine. But it’s not inconceivable to discover that when you go back online to renew that insurance a year later that you find that figure has doubled.

“We believe it’s far less of a headache for clients to come to us and get a competitive quote, a personable service and leave with some peace of mind, content that they are in good hands.

“Yes, a policy may cost more 12 months down the line but the increase won’t make your jaw drop to the ground (and we still have the ability on your behalf to shop around other markets for our best deal).”

HEAD teacher Tom Garfield has pledged to pass the exam of delivering high educational standards to pupils following the devaststaing blaze that destroyed THe Academy Selsey.

His vow comes as this week marks a milestone with the temporary school buildings beginning to arrive on the site.

Over the next few days the remaining buildings, which will form the temporary school, will arrive and be moved into place by two large cranes.

And Mr Garfield said: “We are absolutely delighted to see the first temporary school buildings arrive on site.

"It’s a great milestone for us, the staff and students alike. It also means we are one step closer to bringing the teaching back to THe Academy Selsey site, another important milestone for us.

"Over comingdays the rest of the structures will arrive and we will then begin preparing the rooms for teaching.

“As always, our priority is on providing the highest possible educational standards for all our pupils.

"THe construction of the temporary school is a key part of ensuring the quality of education remains of the very best standard. We’re looking forward to welcoming all of THe Academy Selsey pupils back to site as soon as possible.”

THe temporary school, which previously housed the staff and students of Bohunt School Worthing, will provide high-quality facilities and resources, including science laboratories, workshops and food technology spaces.

THe start of the Autumn term for the students began last week with teaching taking place at four locations around the town, including the Selsey Town Hall

and Bunn Leisure. THe construction of the temporary school will allow all the pupils to be educated on THe Academy Selsey site, minimising the disruption to staff, pupils and parents.

THe temporary school will be transported to THe Academy Selsey between 20th and 30th September. All of the vehicles transporting the buildings will have on the road escorts and the delivery route has been pre-agreed with Sussex Police.

Advanced warning signage will also be positioned, informing pupils and motorists ahead of time to reduce the levels of disruption to a minimum.

THe blaze that engulfed the secondary school was "most likely" an accident caused by a workman maintaining its roof, the fire service said following the August 21 fire.

THe school suffered "extensive structural damage" and much of its contents were destroyed, leaving some 453 pupils without permanent classrooms.

THe Academy is the only secondary school on the Manhood peninsular.

DOG walkers raised money for the Hearing Dogs for Deaf People charity at the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum.

The sun-kissed event saw walkers and their dogs completing the 2.5 kilometre track around the site, raising an impressive £350 for the cause.

Hearing Dogs for Deaf People relies solely on voluntary donations.

Nicholas Orpin, community fundraising manager for Hearing

Dogs, said: “The walk is an excellent opportunity to raise funds to help deaf people to live safely and more independently and experience the life-changing confidence a Hearing Dog brings.

"The walk attracted just over 50 walkers and volunteers and raised around £350 for the Charity.

"Every penny raised and every step taken will make a difference to the life of a deaf person”.

SURGEON Paul Carter ran a marathon to help raise funds for a new £85,000 scanner designed to help doctors diagnose prostate cancer.

Now the machine has been delivered to St Richard’s Hospital thanks to the charity campaign.

Mr Carter, consultant urology surgeon and also chief of surgery for Western Sussex Hospitals Foundation Trust, spearheaded the campaign to buy the prostate template biopsy machine.

He did so by taking part in the challenging Medoc Marathon last September, running through vineyards in the Bordeaux region of France.

And he raised more than £12,000 for Love Your Hospital, the trust’s official charity, and appealed to other charities and organisations to help with additional funding.

A host of charities and community groups came together to enable the purchase of the scanner meaning urologists at St Richard’s Hospital can now investigate the whole prostate gland and provide quicker, less invasive and more accurate diagnosis for patients in Chichester, Bognor, Littlehampton, Worthing and the surrounding areas.

THe template biopsy machine will also benefit existing prostate cancer patients as their condition is monitored, this new machine will allow clinicians to access results quicker and see more people

St Richard's 'emergency floor' team could mop up at awards THE new "emergency floor" model of care at St Richard’s in Chichester been shortlisted for an acute medicine innovation award by the Health Service Journal (HSJ).

THe HSJ awards celebrate and promoted the finest achievements in the NHS, and showcase them to the service’s most influential leaders.

Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is shortlisted in two categories, with its CEO, Marianne Griffiths, pictured, also in contention for chief executive of the year.

Clinical director Dr Roger Duckitt, said: “To be shortlisted for a prestigious HSJ award is fantastic and testament

to the commitment of everyone in the emergency floor teams who have worked so hard in delivering this project, which has really enhanced the quality of care we provide to our patients here at Western Sussex.”

THe awards will be presented at a ceremony in London in November.

which ultimately means patients are more reassured.

Mr Carter said: “THis new prostate template biopsy equipment will have a huge impact on the lives of the men we see in the clinic, improving the care we provide by making the whole process quicker and better for them.

“Everyone who has kindly donated has helped us to provide the diagnostic procedure at St Richard’s Hospital, which saves our patients from having to travel further outside the area."

Donations were received by Friends of Chichester Hospitals, Chichester PCaSO Prostate Cancer Network, West Sussex Urology LLP, Bognor League of Friends, Adur East Lions Club, Arundel Rotary Club, Bognor Regis Lions Club, Lodge of Union 38 and THe Rotary Club of Midhurst and Petworth.

Local jazz troupe the Pagham Mullberries also held gigs in aid of the cause.

An event to thank all involved was held on 15th September in the Chichester Medical Education Centre at St Richard’s Hospital, with a presentation by Mr Paul Carter and an opportunity for donors to see the new scanner.

Amanda Tucker, Head of Charity for Love Your Hospital, said: “It’s been a phenomenal effort from Paul and all the local charities who have been kind enough to help fund this vital equipment for our patients and it shows the power of local charities working together to achieve great things.”

Farm kicks up a stink VISITORS taking in some fine countryside on a visit to Dunreyth Alpacas this week were met with an overpowering pong.

Staff at the alpaca farm seem to be used to odours from muckspreading on nearby farms.

But this particular smell was stronger than the established and so-called "Funtington stench".

A Dunreyth tweeter stated: "All visitors today have mentioned the Funtington stench."

Asked to clarify what they believed to be the cause, the reply was: "Farmers muck spreading but worse than usual. Southern Water trucks delivering so assume treated sewage."

Solar farm's energy profits to the power of £14million

Autumn Event

10MONTHS INTEREST

A NEW solar farm at Tangmere is predicted to earn £14million by selling electricity.

THe figure comes as communities are poised to benefit from more sustainable energy being produced in West Sussex, that's according to new County Council plans.

THe new West Sussex Energy Strategy looks at the key actions which need to take place up to 2020 in order to build a sustainable future including affordable energy. THis includes ensuring energy

is used more efficiently throughout the council as well as by businesses and residents.

Louise Goldsmith, council leader, said: “We made a commitment to cut our CO2 emissions in half by 2025 and we are on track to make this a reality.

"THis strategy is the next push to make that happen but also a renewed commitment to our residents to help tackle fuel poverty and identify new opportunities for renewable energy production.

“Creating new renewable energy sources will have a large number of benefits including helping towards

increasing the security of the the country's energy supply — something which is a real concern as a number of power stations are coming to the end of their lives.

"It will also be better for the environment, reducing carbon emissions and creating more jobs and expertise in the area by using local companies.”

As part of Your Energy Sussex — a County Council-led partnership between local councils and construction company Carillion — a range of schemes are already underway.

THese include solar panels being fitted on council offices and schools as well as

some social housing to provide low-cost electricity for tenants.

One of the most recent milestones was the opening of the County Council’s solar farm located on 25 acres of land east of Tangmere Airfield.

THe electricity produced, which is enough to power 1,500 homes, is sold back into the National Grid earning £13.8 million over 20 years.

Further work is now taking place to see what possibilities there are in West Sussex and how they can be developed. *For more information on the 2016 to 2020 Energy Strategy, visit www. westsussex.gov.uk/energystrategy.

Why my hobby is a 'sweet curse'...

Hectic roads get on our Whyke, say kids

by Carl Eldridge news@sussexpost.co.uk CHILDREN got on their bikes, safely, as Whyke Lane held its first organised playing session — which was heralded a great success.

Part of the lane was closed on Sunday afternoon for children to “play out” without fear of traffic.

THe two hours were used by children to experience the joys of cycling up and down the street on scooters, bikes and in a cargo trike.

Parents had a great time, too, and it was decided that another session should definitely be organised soon.

Sarah Sharp, city councillor for Chichester South said: “I am delighted that children and parents enjoyed the day. We read every day about children being less and less active.

"Being stuck inside in front of a screen has become the norm. So seeing a

street with children playing on it is a breakthrough! Rat-running traffic through this part of the city means that usually children are indoors and not given the freedom to explore as they used to in the past.

"Playing Out is a wonderful opportunity to come together outside and share the 80 per cent of urban space which is normally given over to cars.”

Resident Kristi Kerr said that she hoped more residents of all ages would get involved with the day.

She said: “Playing Out is not only for children but for all residents to and catch up over a cup of tea and a biscuit. THere are lots of people who live alone and I am keen for this to be an opportunity for neighbours to come together”.

THe national organisation Playing Out provides guidance on running sessions and if you would like to know more contact Sarah Sharp on 07789 843556 or sarah.ccc13@gmail.com.

BEING a traditionally published writer meant that venturing into selfpublishing was a big learning curve for me. Several of my titles were published with help from others who had the experience, but the day came when I needed to learn more and become a truly, independent writer.

And I needed a new story. What became A Dangerous Game (2016), began life when my brother mentioned someone in the family tree — Charlie Picket. It struck a chord with me and I fancied writing a story around that name.

I had a friend in Spain who had been involved with the Bolivian government when he lived in Colombia. He told me about the Bolivian’s plan to sell a huge stash of Nazi Gold. He was supposed to earn a 10 per cent commission on the deal, but Bolivians cut him out. I began to weave the idea of the gold sale around Charlie and introduced a girl, Princess, 13, and made her the key to the heist of the gold, but done by computer stealth.

I needed something to bring the two characters together, even though they had no knowledge of each other. I also had to ensure that the two of them committed no crimes, which wasn’t that easy bearing in mind Princess was involved in the bullion theft. Bringing them together meant two, separate stories that blended seamlessly into

the narrative, and when they did come together, their relationship was fractious.

I managed to get Charlie into a Mexican prison through no fault of his own, and arranged to have Princess kidnapped from her home in Arizona to be taken over the border. A plane crash added mystery to the plot, particularly as there was only one person on board the plane — when it left Arizona there were three.

Building a story that includes different elements is rather like a jigsaw: all the pieces have to be scattered throughout the story, but in such a way that the reader is unaware of them. As the end approaches, the pieces of the jigsaw are put in place to complete the picture, and the reader nods in satisfaction (hopefully) as they close the book.

I have been retired for many years, so didn’t need a fixed, writing schedule. When I worked, it had to be fitted around my shift hours, which was difficult and often wearisome.

But there is a need for determination when it comes to writing. I call this my “Sweet Curse”. I enjoy the pleasure from writing — the sweet bit, but not the rejections and difficulties in promoting and marketing — the curse. I wouldn’t change it though; it is a lonely, but rewarding hobby.

Councillors happy to admit they've been talking rubbish COUNCILLORS had their tongues very much in cheek when they admitted that, for once, they were happy to come clean that they had been talking rubbish!

But rather than concede that they were full of hot air they were, in fact, promoting recycling week in and around Chichester.

Councillor Roger Barrow, cabinet member for contract services at Chichester District Council was joined by councillor Gillian Keegan, pictured left, to help the push to encourage locals to consider

recyling. She took to Twitter to say: "Talking rubbish...literally...to encourage more recycling."

Mike Beal, chairman of Selsey Town Council, was also, er, talking rubbish and recycling at Co-op in Selsey as the roadshow hit the road. Half of all household waste needs to be recycled by 2020, or councils could face fines and as a result increase tax.

Bob Riley, council contracts manager said: "Some 15 years ago recycling was done through bottle, paper and glass banks and we achievied 14 per cent recycling. Since collections from the householder, it has gone up dramatically but there is still more to be done."

Charity's new craze for the maze will mean happy days

by Kevin Smith kevin.smith@sussexpost.co.uk AMAZING enjoyment is available at Aldingbourne Country Centre's latest attraction. Visitors can now test their sense of direction thanks to the official opening of a large maze.

Made up of 1,500 privet plants, it contains two correct routes through to the viewing platform and plenty of dead ends to contend with on the way.

THere are also several sculptures throughout the maze about the centre's operator, the Aldingbourne Trust, for them to spot on their way to the centre.

Each successful visitor who gets to the centre, and back out again, will be rewarded with a certificate.

THe opening ceremony was attended

by THe Woodhorn Group, which sponsored the maze, as well as trustees, the adults with learning disabilities who are supported by the charity, employees and supporters of the trust.

John Pitts, the group's managing director, said: "We have a saying in farming that, if you plant a tree, it's for the next generation to enjoy.

"Here at Aldingbourne we've planted 1,500 trees to create the maze for future generations to enjoy and we are proud to be associated with the Trust."

THe charity supports adults with learning disabilties, who train at the centre and learn skills to live independently.

COUNCILLORS have asked the government for a justified explanation as to why plans for a northern bypass to reduce traffic on the A27 were rejected.

It comes as Chichester District Council met to discuss the five different options for improving the A27 which Highways England announced as part of a 10 week public consultation earlier in the year.

THey claim it will make local commutes faster and more reliable, while protecting the environment.

Of the five options, the council favoured option 2 which would see new slip roads at the Fishbourne and Bognor junctions and restricted access at others plus closures at Stockbridge and Whyke with a new Stockbridge link road from Fishbourne to the B2145.

But the council agreed only to support the option if Highways England and the Secretary of State provide a detailed justification as to why two options for a northern bypass were rejected earlier this year.

THey also said Highways England must give serious consideration to various aspects of the option including providing safe, segregated crossings for cyclists and pedestrians and making strategic improvements to the Portfield roundabout.

Many councillors shared their anger about the plans at a meeting packed with residents who eagerly awaited the result.

Councillor Roger Barrow said: “It’s north versus south. I am from Selsey and have a great experience of the roads. I do

postnewspapers.co.uk

f Bad sign

Fire crew recruits are made welcome

agree that the no option isn’t an option because I fear that leaves the door open for Highways England to do whatever they want which might mean doing nothing or going for the cheapest route.

“I agree that option two does provide the best result for Chichester. But I do have some very serious concerns now about the link road and the effect it’s going to have.

“I fear it will break up communities and damage an area of outstanding natural beauty.

“THere is absolutely massive support in the south for a review of the northern option.

THere are thousands of residents in the south who are campaigning for that.

“Highways England haven’t done a particularly good job here.

THey allowed two options for the northern bypass to get into the public domain.

“Now they are telling us it’s not an option, so what they have done is raise false hopes for many residents.

“If we don’t address that, these residents are going to look at this council and think that we don’t care. We have to find a way to address these concerns.

“It might be that we get Highways England back and get a transparent explanation on why that was rejected by them.”

Heather McDougall was one of those who spoke during the meeting. She said: “I have heard the overwhelming views of Donnington residents about the detrimental impact option 2 will have.

“As a Donnington resident myself, I find myself analysing all these facts

and wondering if saving an average five minutes and 40 seconds really is worth all the pain to the residents, to the environment and to our local roads.”

Councillor Susan Taylor, cabinet member for planning and housing said: “Option 2 is considered to offer the greatest long term benefits for the Chichester area.

“THis option performs best in terms of travel and accessibility, providing the greatest reductions in journey times, the greatest improvements in journey time reliability and the best performance in reducing accidents.”

Cllr Taylor added that the council’s response is related to the options proposed by the Highways England consultation and that it isn’t considered appropriate to consider any other options.

Councillor Tony Dignum, pictured inset, leader of Chichester District

Council, said: “THere has been much public debate which has shown once again that selecting an option from those offered is not easy and that none of the options on offer are without disadvantages.

“But without change we would be left with ever increasing delays, pollution and frustration with overloaded roads.

“Some sort of improvement to four of the existing junctions is the only offer on the table.”

As reported last week in the Post, councillors at Chichester City Council favoured option 1A. THe public consultation period has now ended.

Funding for the scheme comes from the Department for Transport’s £15bn Roads Investment Strategy that is providing people with better journeys, cutting congestion and improving the economy.

ALL five options were rejected by councillors at West Sussex County Council last week.

Protesters gathered outside County Hall before the scrutiny committee meeting to make their voices clear.

Some campaigners want a bypass to the north of the city whereas environmental groups prefer more sustainable options.

City Councillor, Sarah Sharp, called for opponents of the various options to come together in support of a sustainable 'third way' that focuses on moving people, not just moving cars.

She said: “THere is quite a lot of understandable negativity around the proposed options for the A27 and what we're trying to do is switch it around and provide a positive and sustainable vision for transport in Chichester, rather than just being a chance for people to air their aggravations. We need to work

out how to move people, not just cars.

Whether we consider park and ride, bus lanes, improved public transport, better cycling or walking provision, we need a joined-up alternative."

Keith Taylor, South East Green Party MEP who sits on the European Parliament's Transport Committee, said: “THis is so important, not just to Chichester people, but to the planet. THe proposals are an example of the government's shortsighted and unsustainable approach.

“Each unpopular, and environmentally destructive, option represents a deadly distraction from the work that needs to be done to reduce traffic and tackle a toxic air pollution crisis that is claiming 4,000 lives in the South East every year."

Meanwhile, 64 per cent of members of the Chichester Chamber of Commerce and Industry preferred option 2. A total of 66 per cent of members said the A27

by-pass is a problem for business with the impact getting employees to and from work, 7am and 9am, Monday to Friday.

What are the options? 1. New slip roads at two junctions (Fishbourne and Bognor) and restricted access at others.

1a. New slip roads at two junctions (Fish/ Bog), restricted access at Oving only. No works at Stockbridge or Whyke. 2. New slip roads at two junctions (Fish/Bog) and restricted access at others plus closures at Stockbridge and Whyke (north-south movements retained). New Stockbridge link road from Fishbourne to B2145. 3.

Junction improvements with traffic signals at junctions (except Portfield), restricted access. 3a. Junction improvements with traffic signals to Fishbourne, Stockbridge, Whyke, new improved slip roads at Bognor Rd. Widening to three lanes between Fishbourne and Bognor Rd. No works at Oving or Portfield.

f Mum Debbie with son Matt, who almost died from bug

BOSHAM mum Debbie Collino has spoken of her horror after being told her son Matt would not live when he was struck down by meningitis.

Debbie told of her experience following Meningitis Awareness Week to encourage young people to get the MenACWY vaccine now then the MenB vaccine when available once research is completed.

Debbie said: “Matt contracted MenB at Loughborough University in 2010, age 19. He had visited the doctor before being found semi-conscious in his room.

"Matt spent five days in intensive care and my husband and I were told he'd be unlikely to recover, but thankfully he slowly improved. He was saved because he was taken to hospital immediately and the medical team were amazing.

"He initially had some memory loss, leg weakness, weak voice due to traumatic intubation, and his eyesight was initially affected. All of this made studies a struggle as he underwent several months of physiotherapy and voice therapy. Matt returned to university the next year and also to the first team football squad and completed his degree with a 2:1.

“No one should have to go through this and I hope we get the MenB vaccine for students soon. In the meantime there is a free vaccine available for students that protects against other deadly strains of meningitis. We want to encourage all young people going to university this year to get the MenACWY vaccine to

protect themselves as much as possible.

My grandfather died of meningitis aged 28 and my niece survived it age four so I'm passionate about getting the message out there.”

Young people going on to university or college are at risk of meningitis and septicaemia because they mix with so many other students unknowingly carrying the bacteria. But this year’s leavers are advised to get the vaccination whether starting college or not.

THe meningococcal ACWY vaccination programme was prompted by a rise of a deadly new strain of meningococcal W meningitis and septicaemia.

THe disease can develop suddenly and progress rapidly. Early symptoms include headache, vomiting, muscle pain, fever, and cold hands and feet.

Students should be alert to the symptoms and should not wait for a rash to develop before seeking urgent medical attention.

Meningitis Research Foundation chief Vinny Smith said: “We're grateful to Debbie and Matt for raising awareness.

By getting the MenACWY vaccine, students protect themselves and others by stopping the spread.

“THe MenB immunisation programme for children under age one is saving lives.

We will continue to gather evidence and expertise that will unlock protection against MenB for everyone.”

Opportunities abound at The Regis School in Bognor Regis The Regis School Westloats Lane, Bognor Regis PO21 5LH Tel: 01243 871010 www.theregisschool.co.uk The school is committed to bringing out the best in everyone and has made rapid progress in recent years to achieve that aim.

The improvements have been recognised by Ofsted and enable each of its 1,500 students to benefit from individually tailored learning to reflect their unique abilities. Teaching strategies, new technologies, curriculum provision, individual and small group support and accelerated provision can all be used to provide the best learning environment.

As the principal, Mike Garlick, says: "Our mission remains to ensure that all students gain the highest qualifications and skills that will create successful futures and develop them as active, caring citizens. "To this end, students have access to a tremendous range of opportunities available at The Regis School and are strongly encouraged to aim high and move on to further and higher education." This is achieved by celebrating each student's skills and embracing diversity. That commitment is shown by The Regis School's status as one of only 13 level Rights Respecting Schools in the country - a status rightly prized by everyone at the school. "It helps us to ensure that the best interests of the child are at the forefront of our

planning and decision making," said Mr Garlick. The well-respected Unicef also values the work of the school.

Katie Cox, from the global body, said: "The Regis School consistently sets a shining example to other schools by placing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child at the heart of their school's planning, policies and practices." The status is one of three which the school is proud to possess.

It is a long-standing Sports Specialist College which uses the medium of sport to encourage its students to stay healthy, encourage confidence, build leadership skills and work collaboratively - and with great success.

The recognition as an Artsmark Gold School last year reflected the dedication and enthusiasm in providing a wide range of quality arts education and opportunities for all and specific opportunities for those with a talent for the arts. This includes a professional standard recording studio as well as specialist arts and photography rooms.

All this, and a range of complementary facilities as well, on a campus rated by the then headteacher as among the best in Europe when the current school building opened at the start of this decade. And students certainly appreciate the chances they are offered.

Zoe Lewis says: "The Regis School is an amazing school with lots of different opportunities for each and every child."

No wonder The Regis School can bring out the abilities of its pupils to put them at the top of the class.

DENMANS

GARDEN

Tucked away, far from the hustle and bustle of the A27, just behind Fontwell Racecourse is a quiet gem of a garden.

Denmans was the garden to a minor stately home built about 1820 for Lord Denman, so there is, of course, a walled garden, and a conservatory – alive with the chatter of budgerigars, and a larger area for frost tender plants; at the bottom of the garden there is a large natural looking pond. The garden at Denmans is nearly 4 acres in size and its layout is such that visitors enjoy lots of quiet, small areas within the overall, for it is punctuated with statues, a nice pot or a warm sitting corner. It is a garden full of ideas to take home that can then be interpreted within smaller spaces. There is something about this garden, which is quite unlike many others. Its display is not only to do with flower colour, but foliage form, texture and the use of gravel lending the garden a Mediterranean feel.

Levi wear it so well for a 'skindie' band GIG REVIEWS by MARTIN JONES SKINDIE band Levi held a pre-launch party for their new single 'Mercy (On Me) at Bognor's Lamb Steyne, and as well as a 90 minute live set, their new self produced promo film was also shown during the interval.

THey call their music “Skindie” which is a fusion of ska and indie, but it goes even further than that stretching to reggae and occasionally drifting towards a more punky sound.

Front man Leeroy Brooks and drummer Bob Pegg both studied music technology at Chichester College, while guitarist Mikey Brewer studied at BIMM. Bassist Conan Elliot is the new kid on the block, having joined the band a year ago.

Opening with an instrumental reggae jam, they then warmed the crowd up with some of their own brand of music,

with the odd cover thrown in, which included THe Specials 'Little Bitch' and 'Caution' by Bob Marley.

THe interval was a little too long and the second half of the set was played to a half full pub and those who left missed a treat. Sound problems which had caused some minor interruptions to the opening set were overcome and the band played a high energy 45 minute set.

All four songs from the new EP were featured, including their tribute to the Paris terror attacks, 'To Paris With Love'.

It is refreshing to see a young band playing some original material and they deserved a bigger audience.

Musically, I doubt that it was the best gig they have played, but make no mistake, these boys have talent, catchy tunes and attitude. Give youth a chance!

Meanwhile, Southampton based Pink Floyd tribute band, The Wall Of Floyd

made a return visit to the St Paul's Arts Centre in Worthing.

THe venue is a former church which closed in 1996, but following a £2million refurbishment, it is now a unique music venue. THe first half of the two hour set opened with 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' from the 'Wish You Were Here' album. THe title track from the same album and 'Have A Cigar' also featured in the first half of a set, which ended with 'High Hopes' from 'THe Division Bell' Opening the second half of the night with 'Breathe', part two of the show was dominated by the classic 'Dark Side Of THe Moon' with the exception of 'Another Brick In THe Wall' .

'Brain Damage' brought the main set to a close, but the encore was 'Comfortably Numb' and 'Run Like Hell' from 1979's 'THe Wall'. Support was provided by Worthing-based Andrew Foster.

Pigeon Detectives provide clue to indie fix at festival CHECK out the Pigeon Detectives, above, at the Southsea Fest, the autumn's leading multi-venue music event, which takes place on October 1.

It's being staged across 20 venues including the distinctive Portsmouth Pyramids, the Wedgewood Rooms and Little Johnny Russells.

The storyteller and performer, who played a number of dates at St Martin's Coffee House as part of the Chichester Festival, provides short stories and acts which are new interpretations of literature.

Len formerly belonged to a group of like-minded folk and would share his stories with other members, but 18 months ago he decided to go it solo and start performing his literature. Once the owner of a comedy and cabaret club in London, it’s easy to see how confidence has helped him take the next step.

He said: “I wanted to venture out on my own and see what that was like, I had done the whole working with a group thing for a while and I just wanted that experience of ‘going solo’ and see what

Revel in the bargain-price Rioja at Tesco...

Our very own bon vivant gets to grips with all the best buys

finish — buy some in for Christmas! My bargain of the week, however, hails from Italy and is a 2015 Ogio Primitivo red wine currently on offer for a mere £4.50. THis is a good wine from the Puglia region, in the heel of Italy's boot and is a soft and juicy wine bursting with spicy blackcurrant and raspberry fruit flavours with a rich velvety finish . At this price fill your boots.

As I browsed the white wine section I unearthed a Vieux Papes Vin de France for the princely sum of £4 and noted its freshness and citrus notes and found it to be very palatable for the price.

I also espied a Lindeman's Bin

65 Australian chardonnay for £5.50 with a 13.5 alcohol volume with pear and vanilla on the nose and good acidity.

If you are willing to spend another 50p you can avail yourself of the Macon Villages Blanc retailing at an everyday £6 and enjoy a wine which is slightly creamy, crisp and peachy, good on the palate and decidedly non-acidic.

I hope these recession-buster wines prove suitably therapeutic this weekend!

Customer Lesley Todd has been a regular at the Charcoal Grill for many years and is happy to endorse both the quality of the service and the food.

She said: “I have used this place for a long time now and the guys are so friendly. I find that the food quality is second to none, the delivery is quick and it’s open very late which can be handy, especially when I have been working long hours.”

“I genuinely can’t fault it. They also cater for all the family and have a kid’s menu so if you want to have a break from cooking try ordering a takeaway and I am sure that you will not be disappointed.”

And the dessert menu is particularly tempting, too.

Try the Baklava; a rich, sweet pastry made of layers of filo filled with chopped nuts and sweetened and held together with syrup or honey.

Don’t just take our word for it. See for yourself online at www.bognorcharcoalgrill.co.uk and browse through the extensive menu in the comfort of your own home.

Delicious food at Grill LOVE at first bite is assured with tasty takeaway meals at The Charcoal Grill in Bognor Regis.

Mouth-watering mozzarella fingers, marinated fillet of lamb or chicken on the skewer, interlaced with slices of onion, green peppers and mushrooms and grilled over a charcoal grill?

Enough to get your taste buds excited? If not, try a traditional Turkish dolma; stuffed vine leaves with rice, herbs and spices.

Perhaps a vegetarian pizza with green peppers, onions, mushrooms and sweetcorn fits the bill?

It all sounds delicious, right? It could easily be a selection of grub worthy of a trendy High Street eatery menu. But all of the above is available from one of the best of what is more commonly known as “kebab shops” in Bognor Regis.

The Charcoal Grill, in the town’s Station Road, offers a vast selection of food. It can be taken away or why not eat in to take advantage of our excellent service in our lovely restaurant area. Customers have been doing just that for 35 years - and they keep coming back for more time after time.

Be it pizza, burgers or kebabs, all meals on the extensive menu are prepared with fresh ingredients by experienced staff who will ensure that your food is cooked just the way you like it.

THIS week back in sunny Sussex I am going to suggest that you revel in bargainprice Rioja at Tesco — two stunning choices in terms of value for money.

And it appears that the offer price continues to at least September 26, so I advise you to go there this weekend and avail yourself of these bargains.

THe Faustino V11 2013 Rioja may well be the entry level Rioja from this famous family — owned Bodega but is a well crafted wine and benefits from some ageing in both barrel and bottle.

Ruby in colour, this wine, having lost the purple intensity of extreme youth, has rich jammy fruits on the palate and vanilla and spice on the finish, clear evidence of the ten months it has spent in new American oak.

At just £5, snap this up as I doubt that it will disappoint you. THe other Rioja, namely the Castillo San Lorenzo Reserva 2010, is priced at two bottles for £10, a very low price for a Reserva.

You will discover with this wine strawberry and plum fruit with wellrounded tannins balanced with some vanilla oak culminating in a subtle spicy

IN spite of Mr Rahman's dislike of smelly charity shops, I believe they are very popular and many people use them to find a bargain or to look for something that cannot find in local retail shops.

Some people use them out of necessity and cannot be as fussy as Mr Rahman.

Since charity shops depend largely on volunteers, how on earth can they be expected to set up coffee shops, especially as the town has enough already.

Rather than damaging the retail offering I have heard many people travel to Bognor Regis just to visit the charity shops and that is better than having 12 empty premises.

Can you solve our fiendishly tricky crossword?

Take your time, you may need to

I was shocked to read locally the sad statistics of sexual attacks on children by children in schools - where we see them as safe.

Frightening.

Children have fallen victim to 282 sex crimes in Sussex schools over the past five years – and the vast majority were committed by other youngsters. Figures released by Sussex Police under the Freedom of Information Act revealed the age groups of the offenders ranged from 10-65. THe vast majority of these reports relate to children offending against each other.

THe crimes included rape, sexual assault, sexual activity with a child, exposure, abuse of trust, voyeurism and sexual grooming.

Don’t consider it mainly girls.

THe children targeted most often were boys aged 13 and under, with 90 sexual assaults reported since 2011/12 – 39 in 2014/15 alone – while there were 12 cases of rape. Girls still factored highly however.

THe figures only included actual crimes, not ‘ incidents’ but it is common to hear from young girls particularly about incidences which are classed as “boys will be boys” attitude … when walking from their English to science lesson for example having their bra strap being pinged, their skirt suddenly lifted from behind, or letters of the alphabet loudly bandied about so they know it is an assessment of the size of your breasts.

We know young boys are not born this way, but have learned the lessons of a pervasive cultural reality that views women as objects of male desire.

We know too that teaching boys and girls about how and why such behaviour is unacceptable makes the problem visible – the first step in rooting it out. With boys clearly, the need to be aware that they can too be sexually attacked needs to be openly discussed.

We need more than the schools quoting about their sexual education programmes - we need a robust system that is sensitive to children’s needs, viewing their experiences with the seriousness that the word violence demands. THis isn’t kids just being kids. Schools need a zero tolerance system that will not allow such actions between children, not just to girls.

Sussex Police works extensively with schools, with specially assigned officers providing input into the curriculum. THese officers help to raise awareness of issues such as consent, as part of the children’s personal social health and citizenship education but indeed it must come down to all of us as parents to reinforce boundaries, respect and consent issues.

Interestingly, I happened to be discussing the article with a local police officer and he said, unsurprisingly perhaps, that funding cuts have meant such input in schools is reducing - at a time when it should be increasing.

A SPECIAL visit saw some of the society's members enjoy looking around one of the country's most important religious buildings.

THe 16 members, pictured above, had a thoroughly enjoyable day looking around Lambeth Palace and its library and gardens as part of their 80th anniversary celebrations.

Lambeth Palace, on the south bank of the River THames, has been an historic London residence of the Archbishops of Canterbury since the 13th century.

THe members arrived by train at London Victoria on time. Most of them decided to walk from the station to the palace with a stop on the way for a picnic on the Embankment.

THey gathered in front of the palace at 2pm and the afternoon passed with a pleasant and enjoyable tour.

Janet Hogben, of the society, said: "Sarah Etheridge, one of the staff from the library, acted as our

guide and started by giving us a brief history of Lambeth Palace.

"We also had talks from several of Sarah's colleagues, including a document conservator and one of the archivists who talked about the history of the gardens.

"It was fascinating to discover that many of the Archbishops' wives have made their mark on the gardens.

"We were shown plans and drawings of the gardens dating back to the 13th century."

One of the wives, Rosalind Runcie, organised fundraising and a major garden restoration between 1986 and 1988.

Her project included an Elizabethan-style herb and physic garden.

THe society is always looking to welcome new members and meets at 7.30pm on the fourth THursday monthly at the Jubilee Hall in Chalcraft Lane, North Bersted.

More details and its monthly programme of events can be found at its website http:// www.brhortsoc.co.uk

Why is the Council unable to understand the views of the residents of Chichester that there are alternatives to the plan to build 1600 in all which do not destroy the agricultural land that we will need to feed the population in the future?

THe views presented at the meeting at the district council last week is an attempt to delay the construction of 1600 homes which none of the residents of Chichester want to be built on the agricultural land when alternative brown sites are available.

Nineveh House Players

A CAT viewing day is being held tomorrow at the Cat and Rabbit Rescue Centre in Sidlesham.

THe special occasion will give friends of felines the chance to see if they would like to re-home any of them, subject to a pre-home visit.

THe centre has around 200 cats and kittens and would like to make this viewing day its best as a fitting way to help celebrate its 30th anniversary.

Viewing will take place from midday-2pm at the centre at Holborrow Lodge in Chalder Lane.

REHEARSALS are underway for next year's panto at Climping Village Hall.

The Nineveh House Players, pictured above with a previous panto, have begun preparing for their next annual festive special. They will be presenting the musical version of Sleeping Beauty on January 6 and 7.

The Players are mainly traders with shops within the Nineveh House Antiques Centre in Arundel's Tarrant Street. They are also being joined by residents from the surrounding area.

Those taking part live from east of Worthing to west of Chichester.

A spokesman for the Players said: "It has been decided that money raised from this coming pantomime will go to the Aldingbourne Trust.

"This is a charity that is committed to supporting the well being of people with learning disabilities by developing their skills, helping them to maintain their own tenancies, gain employment in the local community and encouraging them to lead more fulfilled and independent lives."

Pantomimes presented by the Players in the past three years has raised a grand total of more than £9,000 for the Chestnut Tree House children's hospice near Arundel.

Every pound raised through ticket sales and raffles at the pantos goes to charities, including sales of the programme.

How the city brewed up a beer-making industry

f Henty Constable

TOWARDS the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th centuries brewing became less of an activity that took place in the large houses of Chichester, like the former Fernleigh Centre in North Street.

Instead it became a commercial enterprise.

Amongst the commercial brewers operating at various levels in the town was James Atkey, who had settled in East Street in about 1790 and started the East Walls Brewery.

Although originally a blacksmith, by his death in 1837 he had built up a successful brewing business.

THis passed to his son James Atkey Junior who continued the business until his own death in 1851.

His son James William Atkey inherited the company and he and his brother continued

brewing until 1880 when they sold the brewery and estate to Royds & Marsden.

Henry Knott Combs was a brewer and hop merchant in St Martins Street.

He married THeresa Davies in 1833. Henry Knott Combes died 1845, his widow inherited the estate and leased the brewery to William Wares, who records show, continued brewing until at least 1851.

Christopher Florence had inherited the Lion Brewery and ran it until 1869 when they leased it to Richard Walter and Robert Canning Walter. THey were later bought out

by Royds & Marsden in 1882.

Richard Deller, brewer in St Pancras, succeeded the bankrupt THomas Churcher.

THis brewery started about 1795 but after 1812 was disused for a decade. It then came

Brothers Richard and George Deller ran the business until 1849 when their younger sibling William Henry Deller took over the business until the early 1880s. Brewing ceased upon his death.

George and Richard Gatehouse were brewers in South Street. THe brewing business passed through at least three generations, likely starting in 1800 with premises in the Northgate area; possibly St Paul’s Road.

THe business was later taken on by Henry Harmsworth.

In 1817 the Gatehouse brothers were in a position to buy the South Street Brewery (with 12 pubs) from THomas Trew and William Raper. THis site is likely to date back to 1755 when it was run by THomas Coote.

John Golding & Co (1862-71) were brewers and spirit merchants who succeeded Wooldridge at THe Eastgate, 4 THe Hornet.

David's roofing work hits heights

DAVID Summerville has been repairing roofs around Bognor Regis and Chichester for nearly three decades.

THe benefits of that experience during the past 27 years are obvious to see.

He has worked on every style of roof imaginable.

Flat, pitched, slated and tiled are equally easily tackled in his expert hands.

From the smallest of repairs to the most comprehensive replacement, it is all in a day's work for David. THat specialist knowledge is available to every one of his customers.

David can easily detect problems and devise solutions to them quickly and reliably.

Added to that is the fact he pledges to be competitive and offers a guarantee for his work.

He said: "All my customers deserve no less than my best work. I've always believed that and it is a way of working which is second nature to me.

"I'm keen to look at any roofing work and my experience will ensure I can sort out any problems."

Excellence and professionalism come as standard along with a friendly nature and the ability to turn up on time to get the job done.

And that's not always as easy as it seems when dealing with some tradesmen.

Dave, though, sets higher standards than most and it shows with his ever lengthening list of satisfied clients.

No roofing problem is too much trouble for Pagham-based David who is happy to be judged on

his previous work.

He knows that his reputation rests on each job he has completed and maintains his high standards accordingly.

THis ensures Dave has a high level of customer recommendations on which he can call for potential clients to judge him on.

It can seem hard in this day and age to find a trader who offers excellent service and workmanship but there is really no need to look further than Dave whenever a roofing job arises.

No-one stays in the same business for as long as David without being good at their job.

THat's an indisputable fact and David's length of time on the tiles is an advantage for anyone who wants to get a roofing matter sorted.

Rio golden girl Emma tribute to Chichester

by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk

PARALYMPIAN gold medal winner Emma Wigg has spoken of the amazing support she received from Chichester University after losing the use of her legs.

Team GB canoest Emma, 36, won the highest accolade of her sport in Rio last week. And she has recalled her time in the city and the support she received following the news of her disability.

During her gap year in Australia, Emma contracted a virus that damaged her neurological system, causing paralysis in both her arms and legs. Whilst her arms regained mobility, her legs were left permanently affected.

Despite this life changing event Emma was determined to pursue her chosen career as a PE teacher and, aged 18, she was determined to take up her place at Chichester and gain her degree. She cites the sporty environment and support systems of the university as big players in her progression towards elite sport and in securing a career in teaching.

Emma studied sports science and

gained a PGCE in secondary PE, and then landed a job at the Regis School, in Bognor. And she says the university played a big role in her development as an athlete. She said: "THe uni was incredible for me. THeir support at a time when I was newly disabled was incredible and allowed me to get on my path for teaching. I learnt loads about myself and being at such a sporty university gave me back the love for sport I'd been missing."

Emma started her sporting career as a sitting down volleyball player and captained ParalympicsGB at London 2012, then made the transition to paracanoeing. She explains: "After London I knew I would have to change sports if I wanted to experience world class performance level sport. It is a little like a transfer market after a Paralympic Games and a number of sports were interested. Canoeing trials came up and I was so impressed with the set-up that when they offered me a place I nearly bit their hand off. It’s a different sport and has been a challenge to master the skills in the boat and take my body to new physical limits in the gym."

Good Evans! New boy Jack's late try a winner Taff Davies. Woodworth had to depart with an arm injury and the score was 14-12 at the break. Chichester kicked off and Aaron Davies fed Henry Anscombe for their third try. Taff Davies kicked a fine conversion to make it 21-12.

Johnson had to be helped off after a head collision and Ben Robson also left with an ankle knock and all replacements came on. It became a midfield battle and Polhill was using all his ground skills to win the ball.

Blues conceded 10 points before returning to full strength following a sin-binning and at 21-25 it was a case of nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Anscombe kicked long and following lineouts and several drives being repelled the ball went across the backs who kept their nerve for the winning pass to Evans on the wing. Normally a scrum half, he stepped inside and placed the ball inside the flag. Cue rejoicing. THe conversion was short.

Chichester: Belcher, Woodworth, Dowding, O'Callaghan, A. Davies, Johnson, Polhill, Bentall (capt), Anscombe, T.Davies, Robson, Thompson, Maslen, Seaman, Guest, Arden-Brown, Farmer and Evans.

by Robert Henry sport@sussexpost.co.uk NEW recruit Jack Evans made a lasting impression on his debut for Chichester in their edge-of-the-seat 26-25 victory over Shelford.

Debutant Evans came off the bench in the second half and snatched a last-gasp try five minutes from time to give the Blues a thrilling win in their National League 3 encounter at Oaklands Park.

Chichester were desperate to chalk up a home win after two away defeats and revenge was sweet on the visitors, who inflicted a one point home loss on their hosts last season.

Now Chichester face a big fixture tomorrow (Saturday) at Dorking, who have a strong squad with recent National 2 experience. Kick off 3pm.

Against Shelford, THe Blues were 7-0 down after just seven minutes before prop Tom Belcher scored his third try in three games. Taff Davies converted for 7-7.

f Pagham's Shelly against Hayward Heath

CHICHESTER City suffered a 4-0 reverse in the RUR Charity Cup second round at Little Common on Tuesday.

It was a night to forget for Miles Rutherford and his men and they now turn their attention to a game at home against Sheppey in the FA Vase tomorrow.

It comes a week after Josh Clack, right, grabbed the only goal of the game in a 1-0 SCFL Premier Division win at Hassocks.

And the three points on the road at THe Beacon for Rutherford’s outfit mean they stay in touching distance of the pack in fifth spot in the league table. Clack struck on 11 minutes to settle the affair early on.

Scott Murfin bagged a brace as Pagham won 3-0 at Arundel on Tuesday night in the RUR Charity Cup second round.

Murfin struck on 23 minutes. Two minutes later Johan Van Driel doubled the Lions' lead.

Murfin pounced for a third before the break.

Pagham now look to tomorrow’s FA Vase second round clash against Horsham YMCA at Nyetimber Lane. It comes after they gained ground on second-placed Haywards Heath Town with a 1-0 against them with a Jordan Clark goal last Saturday.

THe Lions now sit 18 points, the same total as the high-flying visitors although Mark Bennett’s side have a game in hand.

Selsey, who got a point with a 1-1 draw at Langney Wanderers in SCFL division one on Saturday, travel to Horley Town for a tough test in the FA Vase second round. Bosham are table-toppers in SCFL second division by four points after six games. THe Robins won at Walton Lane with a 3-1 triumph over Westfield. Graeme Dowden made it 1-0 on

35 minutes and the other two goals through Bradley Miles and Marco Giambelardini came in the last five minutes. THey look to maintain their advantage at the top tomorrow with a trip to play Worthing Town Leisure.

Sidlesham chalked up a 3-2 victory over Cowfold at the Rec with goals from Callum Dowdell (03), John Phillips (60), and THomas Bayley (65). Sids go to Alfold for a league encounter tomorrow.

Nyetimber Pirates’ impressive start to the season continued this weekend with both sides extending their 100 per cent record in the West Sussex Football League, writes CHARLIE WELLING. Ted Griffin’s first team

made it three wins from three overcoming rivals Newtown Villa 3-2 at Jubilee.

THe Looters struck first through Michael Frangou's penalty after just two minutes when Scott Towers was tripped. THen Sean Williamson clipped Sam Dallaway giving ref Mike Neary no option and Dave Speller made it 1-1 from the spot.

An own goal by former Pirate Doug Peach made it 2-1 just after the break and then Andy Cox made it 3-1. RJ Hampton pulled one back when he bizarrely took the ball off Pirates Warren Pye and poked into an empty net.

Jamie Walters’ reserve side’s 2-0 win over Yapton Reserves sent them to the top of Division 3 south. Goals from James Gilchrist and Alex Jasper were enough to secure the win which also saw the debut of former Predator Nathan Stonelake.

Next week the first team go to Ashington Rovers in the cup whilst the reserves host West Chiltington at West Meads.

Elsewhere in the WSFL Predators, who recently folded their reserves, secured a 2-2 draw with league leaders Wisborough Green. In the Championship Newtown Villa reserves lost 7-1 to Angmering Seniors, whilst Sidlesham Reseves beat Stedham 2-0.

The Unicorn ran out 2-0 winners over Angmering at Decoy Drive in Division 2 putting them top of the table. Division 3 saw a 1-1 draw for Felpham Colts and a 2-1 win for newly promoted Elmer.

Ambassadors’ miserable start to their Division 4 campaign continued losing 3-1 to Tangmere. THe Trojans beat Watersfield 4-1, whilst their reserves could only scrape a 1-1 draw with Whkye Utd Reserves.

Khassal display four-midable as City hit magnificent seven

by Robert Henry sport@sussexpost.co.uk CHICHESTER City Ladies stormed back to form to blot out the memories of a frustrating draw at Southampton in midweek.

THey stay top of the pile in the south west one division after a 1-1 at the Sholing ground and then notched a 7-1 win over Brislington.

Jess Lewry, ex-Southampton player, scored Chichester’s only goal on THursday. But a late second-half strike by Krystal White salvaged a point for the Reds.

Move on a few days and Chichester entertained Brislington at Oaklands, looking to take out their frustrations and restore confidence that, took a knock a few days earlier.

Cherelle Khassal was in fine form and hit four, Jess Lewry added to the total when she scored a brace and Kally Ambler also got on the scoresheet.

THe development squad won 2-1 against Ashford to get their first three points of the season, thanks to goals from Megan Oliver and Carmen Kager.

THe U16s won 10-0 away to Withdean Youth with the goals coming from Grace Greenshields (1), Alex Collighan (2), LouLou Robson (2), Holly Heffron (2), and Paige Bircham (3). U14s lost 15-1 at home to Eastbourne with the only Chi goal

Sport 37

scored by Elishia Hounsome.

It was defeat also for U12s, who lost 4-1 at home to Cuckfield Cosmos.

Carlie Davey grabbed a sonsolation goal.

Meanwhile, Pagham Ladies bounced back from last week's defeat to Montpellier Villa to record their first ever win in competitive football against Worthing Town.

Mel Miller was the star of the show grabbing a hat trick in a 3-1 to give them their first three points in the Sussex County Women's and Girls football league.

THe Lionesses went 1-0 up on 20 minutes as a Sam Wiseman corner

was superbly headed home by Miller before the visitors equalised.

But the home side deservedly retook the lead a few minutes when a long-range Strudwick effort was fumbled allowing Miller to tap in the net.

THen skipper Anna Guppy played in Miller for the treble, sealing a satisfying triumph.

Pagham Ladies are back in action once more when they welcome strong opposition in the shape of league leaders Oakwood to Nyetimber Lane on Sunday in a keenly anticipated encounter which kick-off at 2pm.

High five for AFC Chi JACKS suffered a 5-1 defeat at home to AFC Chichester at Avisford Park, pictured, in the Chichester Sunday League Premier Division. Longsocks, conquerors of Chichester on the opening day of the season, also let in five without reply at home to Westbourne. In Division One, AFC Southbourne enjoyed a 2-1 win over Lamb Steyne, LG United beat FNK United 5-1 and Westmeads and Prince Of Wales drew 3-3.

Howell's in for a tasty bit of Bass From back page

Wild!'

Frankly, Bruno is national treasure FORMER world heavyweight champion Frank Bruno came to Pagham last week in an after dinner meet and greet, courtesy of Luv Carpets and Ockley ABC. One of Britain's most loved heroes spoke at length of his glittering career including his two fights with all time great Mike Tyson and his famous championship win over Oliver McCall.

Over 100 people, including Bruno's old sparring partner, former British champion Scot Welch, packed out THe Inglenook on Pagham Road for a three-course meal followed by an evening's entertainment of a Q&A with the champ. THe night was a huge hit with the locals who helped raise £3,400, half of which going to the Sussex Snowdrop Trust, the other being put towards new equipment for the boxers at Ockley ABC. After a successful amateur career, Bruno turned professional and racked up 21 straight knockouts before losing to fellow world title contender James 'Bonecrusher' Smith by knockout in the 10th round.

After regrouping with a further four wins, he captured the European heavyweight title, knocking out swede Anders Eklund in the fourth back in 1985. Just nine months later Bruno challenged Tim Witherspoon for the world heavyweight championship.

THough ahead on the scorecards, the Brit was stopped in the 11th.

He would later make two more unsuccessful attempts at the world title. THe first of which, a five-round thriller with Iron Mike Tyson, ended in a stoppage loss for Bruno. THen a seventh round stoppage defeat to Lennox Lewis, in what was the first ever world heavyweight championship fight to be contested

between two Britons.

But in 1995, after three failed attempts at the title, came that memorable night at Wembley Stadium when Bruno beat Oliver McCall via a twelve rounds points decision to become heavyweight champion of the world.

He goes down as one of the biggest punchers in history with 38 knockouts of his 40 wins, a 95 per cent KO rating.

"THe night was a roaring success," said Jack Keywood, owner of awardwinning floor laying specialists Luv Carpets. "THe people who attended all left with huge smiles on their faces. It was so nice to see everyone enjoying themselves."

Keywood cycled to Paris on an old pushbike, dressed as Mr Incredible with a group of other superhero fundraisers, to help raise over £120,000 for THe Sussex Snowdrop Trust last June. He added: "It is a charity very close to my heart, they work tirelessly to give emotional and financial help to the families of children with life-threatening illnesses.

"I'm so grateful to all the local businesses who donated the raffle prizes to help raise vital funds and make the night a huge success."

Ockley ABC head coach Faz Chitima added "We're all so happy with how it all went. Bruno was great entertainment as ever. THe money we raised for the club will go a long way to supplying much needed new equipment and expenses for our dedicated boxers."

It fills me with tremendous pride seeing members of our tight-knit community pulling together to raise money for such worthy causes. Hats off to Faz, Jack and, of course, our national treasure Frank Bruno

RE BR TON MAN P , 3PM Y 4 R 2 SEP

View from the Green Army WHAT a difference 48 hours makes for Rocks fans. On Saturday Twitter was in meltdown at the FA Cup loss at Billericay with a controversial goal direct from a throw-in.

Billericay fans ridiculed the goal, Rocks fans slammed it as cheating but its certain that if this was Bognor progressing via the same means our fans would revel in it.

Fast forward to Monday and we travel home from Kingstonian buoyant after a 2-1 victory. Granger (who received a lot of flack after Billericay) pulled off some superb

saves. Jimmy Wild — who has split opinion amongst the Green Army — got a well deserved goal. His endeavour was spectacular and he'd have been MOM if it wasn't for Ollie Pearce.

Wild has tried hard but only managed one goal vs Guildford in the FA Cup. Some fans have expected to much from a raw talent who has an obvious knack of scoring in the SCFL. At Kingstonian Wild got a slice of luck after K's keeper Rob Tolfrey, who jumped into the crowd to punch a Bognor fan two seasons ago, spilled

the ball allowing him to slot home to put the Rocks 1-0 up. So we're out of the cup, but sit fourth in the league, something we'd have taken with the squad changes we've experienced.

THe squad look settled. Some of the ability we've lost may have weakened us, but looking at Leicester last season, sometimes a team can out-do individuals.

We go again at home to Tonbridge Angels, doing well in the league, who destroyed us last season 5-0. Kick off 3pm at the Nye Camp.

Jim gets his own song after strike

by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk NODDY Holder is a football fan. Well, he supports Wolves. But he probably didn’t have the Beautiful Game in mind when he co-wrote the classic Slade track, Cum On Feel the Noize, back in 1973.

And he certainly wouldn’t have had any thoughts of a skinny striker scoring for Bognor Regis Town 43 years down the line.

But that didn’t stop the fervant Green Army adapting the lyrics to the smash-hit song to herald Wild’s first Ryman Premier goal for the Rocks in the 2-1 win at Kingstonian on Monday night.

THe ditty was a firm favourite at No.1 in the charts. Wild, currently dual signed with Southern Combination Premier Chichester City, aims to be a firm favourite at No.9 for Jamie Howell’s outfit.

And after a shaky start at the Nye Camp, he just may have a chance of making the hitman role his own, a position that wouldn't have been offered to him had Jason Prior not

f Fans Wild for Slade switched to Havant & Waterlooville in the summer.

Wild's goal and another from Alex Parsons gave Rocks the victory that helped consign to history a dodgy goal that threw them out of the FA Cup two days previous at Billericay Town.

THe ball went in to the net directly from a Kreshnic Krasniqi throw and clearly didn’t touch a player, no, not even Edvardas Gaurilovas to whom the goal was seemingly credited, and so shouldn’t have stood. THe ref

missed it. THe Rocks missed out on a circa £5,000 pay day. In truth, though, Rocks were off the game yet holding on for a replay is what cup runs are all about. Next year, maybe.

Now they get the chance to build on their league victory at home tomorrow when they host Tonbridge Angels at Nyewood Lane.

And they are at home once more on Tuesday when Burgess Hill Town make the short journey to face the Rocks in a league clash.

Keep and eye on Wild, Wild, Wild!

PostSport diary PostSport diary PostSport diary ZANY (you sure? Ed)Timmy Mallett fancies his chances of bossing the Rocks when they host Tonbridge Angels tomorrow (Saturday)...that if this snap of the TV presenter and chums in the Nye Camp dugout is anything to go by. But Jamie Howell doesn't have too much to worry about. The wacky (Eh? Really? Ed) star stopped by Sussex's most famous non-league side on a charity cycle ride. Phew!

ROCKS grandee Jack Pearce is a major suit at the FA these days and cuts a dashing figure when he is booted and suited and on official business. But the Nyewood Lane supremo undid all his excellent sartorial work en route to Wembley function this week when he travelled by train and hadn't put his false teeth in.

FINALLY, Bognor bit player Walter Figuero has his very own agent. That's it. sport@sussexpost.co.uk

...relationship we have with both Pompey and Brighton.

THe youth loan system works well for both the loaning club as well as ourselves, as it provides valuable experience and playing time for the players, whilst giving us the opportunity of bolstering our squad at a time when we have suffered badly with injuries.”

Howell in for a tasty bit of Bass EXCLUSIVE

by Carl Eldridge sport@sussexpost.co.uk

Don’t get battered, Tyson!

JUST how do you prepare for a heavyweight boxing clash with snarling Russian bruiser Wladimir Klitschko? Easy as mushy peasy if you are Tyson Fury! Simply take in the sea air on a stroll along Bognor prom tucking into fish and chips (and mushy peas).

THat was the sight that stunned Si Boxall when he spotted Fury and his Dad on Tuesday on the seafront. And after initially denying he was Fury, the big man posed for a picture with the Bognor boxing fan

after a chat. Boxall said: “I sat down had a chat with him and his dad both really nice geezers, me star struck like a little girl. I can't believe the heavyweight champion was in Bognor.”

Fury and Klitschko meet in their heavyweight rematch next month in Manchester after the Brit beat him in November to claim the WBA, WBO and IBF titles.

JAMIE Howell won’t turn to Pagham No.1 James Binfield if Rocks keeper Billy Granger leaves the club.

Instead, Howell will look to broker a loan deal with Pompey to lure youngster Alex Bass.

Lions ace Binfield, right, has been tipped to play at a higher level than Southern Combination Premier and there are those in the Rocks backroom set-up who believe he could hold his own in the Ryman Premier.

But Howell would prefer to go to Fratton Park to ask for Bass should Granger and Bognor part ways. THe current custodian is looking to get into league football and insiders say he hasn’t settled in too well in the dressing room.

Howell has a had a fruitful time with his requests of Portsmouth of late — he has secured the services of fans’ favourite Calvin

Meanwhile, the club have also extended the current loans from Brighton for Dylan Barnett and THomas Byrne.

Both Barnett and Byrne have been amongst the goals in their short spell at the club and the extended deals are a boon.
