OBESE ROBBER “MAY HAVE DIED AT ANY POINT”

A MAN who died trying to rob an Oxford jewellers was obese and could have passed away at any time, his inquest heard on Tuesday. Clint Townsend, 33, from Oxford, died last year after smashing a shop window to rob John Gowing Jewellers in the Covered Market, Oxfordshire Coroner’s Court heard. Mr Townsend was tackled to the floor and sat on by a group of people, including the shop owner and manager, after smashing the store’s window with a sledgehammer – assistant coroner Alison Thompson heard. Owner John Gowing told the court he was “devastated” by Mr Townsend’s death. He added: “A really horrible experience was just made even worse by the fact that he had passed away.” On the second day of his inquest on Tuesday pathologist Dr Ashley Fegan-Earl told the court: “He could have died at any point

– at rest, asleep, at work.” He said Mr Townsend was obese, and his arteries were just 1mm wide. Dr Fegan-Earl ruled he died of a hypoxic brain injury from critical respiratory arrest and coronary heart disease. He said: “If I was to come across an individual with that amount of heart disease who was found dead in bed I would have no hesitation in giving that as the cause.” Mr Townsend was sat on until police arrived and started CPR. He was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Headington but died the next day, March 31. The court heard on Monday Mr Townsend was the passenger on a green Kawasaki Ninja motorbike that drove into the Covered Market at around 9.15am.

Mr Townsend smashed a window of the shop with a sledgehammer before being restrained, while the driver dropped the motorbike and ran off. Giving evidence, Mr Gowing said he heard “banging and crashing” and saw Mr Townsend, who was wearing a crash helmet, headbutt his shop manager Andrew Hill. He added: “Andrew has been with me for many years so I was worried for his safety. “I grabbed the individual from behind and it was all a bit of a melee. “People seemed to come from all over and we all went down in a big heap. “Me and Andrew were underneath him and there were a lot of people sat on top of him.” Ms Thompson was due to conclude the inquest as the Guardian went to print yesterday. See oxfordshireguardian.co.uk for a full verdict, or next week’s paper.

Rail route linking Oxbridge on cards A PROPOSAL to link Oxford and Cambridge by train “has real potential”, a report published by a rail group has claimed. A rail route between Oxford and Bedford is already in the pipeline - to be built by March 2019. But the East West Rail Consortium has backed a plan to extend the route to Cambridge as well. The consortium is made up of local authorities and businesses behind the project to link the east and west. Bob Menzies, chair of the East West Rail’s central section steering group, said: “Now that the

By Adam Flinn adam@taylornewspapers.co.uk

western section between Oxford and Bedford is going ahead, we are working to develop the business case for the central section to complete the missing link.” The latest study supports the case to extend rail links to Cambridge - from which trains can then be caught into Norfolk and Suffolk. It forecasts a population increase of more than one million people living in the ‘golden triangle’ between Oxford, London and Cambridge by 2031.

Accounts

The report adds that up to 400,000 jobs will also be created in that area by 2031, and claims building the central section between Bedford and Cambridge would slash journey times for those travelling to eastern England. Congestion on London’s railways would also be cut as travellers bypass the capital to get to the east. Mr Menzies added: “This study shows there is significant economic growth potential that could be unlocked through new rail services. “The government is providing funds for Network Rail to

undertake the next vital phase of feasibility work to identify a preferred route.” The rail route between Bedford and Cambridge was dismantled and built over long ago, so a new line would have to be built. Network Rail is looking into possible options. Network Rail’s principal strategic planner, Graham Botham, said: “We welcome the exciting opportunity to unlock the economic growth of the region through improving rail services. “We look forward to working with the consortium to explore the role rail services can play.”

MORE than 1,000 cyclists descended on Blenheim Palace on Sunday as part of their family cycle day, with many raising money for Oxford-based charity Oxfam. The Blenheim Palace Sportive saw riders cycling around the palace’s vast grounds during the day, or taking on a 60 or 100 mile route through the Cotswolds countryside. Somerset cyclist Ian Green won the 60-mile route in a time of three hours and 40 minutes,

while Suzanne Bartington of Witney was the fi rst woman back 40 minutes later. Event organiser Andy Townsend said: “We were delighted to welcome over 1,000 riders to Blenheim Palace. “The routes gave riders a rolling, hilly course to tackle, but I think most came through to the fi nish with smiles on their faces. “To see people of all ages and abilities on their bikes taking the unique opportunity to cycle in this historic estate was fantastic.” John Hoy, CEO of Blenheim Palace, added: “We were really pleased to see such strong competitor numbers, which provides a compelling reason to support this event going forward.” The Sportive is expected to return next year on August 16, 2015. • Cyclists of all ages rode around the grounds of Blenheim Palace on Sunday (Picture by Lucy Ray)

News Bites Cigarette theft CHIPPING NORTON: Thieves raided a Sainsbury’s store of cigarettes on Monday. Offenders broke into the Market Square shop shortly before 2am and took cigarettes from behind the till, before fleeing the scene. PC Simon Warn, who is investigating the burglary, said: “I would like to hear from anyone who may have been in the Chipping Norton area at this time. “Did you see anyone around the area acting suspiciously or anyone leaving the area? If so, then please get in touch as soon as possible.” Anyone with information is asked to call 101.

Begging plan OXFORD: New measures to tackle begging in the city’s streets have been announced by Oxford City Council. The measures will see individuals caught begging for the fi rst time offered the chance to attend a local day centre instead of receiving a police caution. The centre, Steppin’ Stone, gives support to homeless people by helping them get off the streets. Scott Seamons, the council’s board member for housing and estate regeneration, said: “Begging is a criminal offence and it does remain a problem in Oxford. “With this new initiative in place, an individual will have the opportunity to attend a oneto-one key working session to address the issues that made the person beg in the fi rst place.”

Hammer time OXFORD: A demolition ceremony to mark the start of a lengthy process to knock down the Hans Krebs Tower in Oxford University’s Science Area was held on Monday. Biochemistry librarian Brian Taylor was presented with a ceremonial hammer to mark the occasion, which will see the tower demolished over the coming months. It will make way for a building to house biosciences research, having previously been the home of the biochemistry department until 2008.

A COUNTY council scheme that identifies families most in need of help to tackle crime and anti-social behaviour has been named as one of the best performing in the country. The Thriving Families project was praised by government for offering help to 725 families in Oxfordshire. It will now get government funding to support 400 more families by the end of March next year, ahead of a national roll-out of the scheme the following month. Melinda Tilley, the council’s cabinet member for children, education and families, said: “This is a great opportunity to build on the results we have achieved so far. “The fact is that a relatively

small number of families account for a hugely disproportionate amount of public resources as a result of problems that with a little help can be addressed successfully. “Families are getting the help they need to turn themselves around and make lasting changes to their lives.” The project works by assigning a dedicated person to help the family. They work with police, health services and other organisations to help the families deal with any problems that might arise in day to day life. This can include poor school attendance, criminal behaviour, youth offending or adults out of work.

Murder accused ‘planned suicide’ WILL Blencowe planned to commit suicide and make peace with 17-year-old Connor Tremble before he stabbed the teenager 15 times in his flat, Oxford Crown Court has heard. Blencowe, 21, of Oxford Road, Banbury, admits stabbing the teenager on February 13 in his flat in Fairacres Road, Iffley Fields, but denies murder. Psychiatrist Dr Michael Orr, who visited Blencowe in prison, told the jury last Friday the 21-year-old has mental health problems and describes himself as ‘the living dead’. Dr Orr said Blencowe told him he had intended to buy heroin in Oxford to kill himself, but visited Connor to tell him he had no problem with his relationship with his ex-girlfriend Aimee Harrison. However, on Tuesday Heather Gilleski, mother of Blencowe’s co-defendant Grant Clemens,

said to the jury her son told her Blencowe had gone to Oxford to “have it out” with a guy his girlfriend was seeing. She continued: “He said some guy called Blencowe decided he was not going to kill himself, but was going to Oxford to kill the other guy. “Grant told me he (Blencowe) had stabbed this guy lots of times.” Last week the jury heard from Dr Orr that it was Connor who answered the door with a knife - Blencowe told the psychiatrist: “I could see the situation but I was only an onlooker and then I told him ‘I am not here for that’. “I grabbed his arm. It was like he was ready to get me.” Dr Orr told Oxford Crown

News Bites Drop in crime OXFORD: Incidents of antisocial behaviour have fallen by five per cent in the city over the past year, latest figures from Thames Valley Police show. Between August 12, 2013 and Monday there were 3,621 reports relating to anti-social behaviour, compared to 3,804 for the previous 12 months.

Court: “He said he could see his arm going into two stabbing movements. “He said he ran out to the taxi and was feeling like a robot.” Dr Orr, who said Blencowe suffered from a personality disorder and his mental state could have been compromised, added: “He told me and I am quoting: ‘It was my body but it was not me’.” Miss Harrison, 20, who dated Blencowe for four years until September last year, gave evidence at the trial earlier last week. She told the jury in a telephone conversation with Blencowe, he promised he would not harm Connor after fi nding out they were a couple, but told her to tell the teenager to “run” if he ever saw him. She said Blencowe owned “about four knives” including a machete. Miss Harrison revealed Blen-

NORTHWAY residents will soon be able to get to and from the Headington shops with a free direct bus service provided by Oxfordshire County Council. The council’s free H1 bus service has been operating every Wednesday and Friday between Old Marston and Headington for over two years, but will pass through Northway from September 3. The route change follows a successful Conservative proposal which came after elderly residents complained about the lack of shops in Northway and of not being able to get to the Headington shops easily.

Mark Bhagwandin, Oxford East Conservative chairman, said: “There is no reason why the bus shouldn’t have been going into Northway since it started operating over two years ago. “A significant proportion of the Northway community is elderly with those on disability benefits higher than the rest of the city. A bus service to facilitate them getting to the shops is extremely beneficial.” The bus will now go from Bradlands in Old Marston into New Marston and Northway, and then out to the Headington shops. It will make a return trip an hour later.

Beer festival OXFORD: The Perch in Binsey Lane is set to hold its second annual beer festival next month, with over 30 real ales and ciders on offer. The festival will be held in the pub’s beer garden, with a range of food and live music also on offer. General manager Martyn Cooper said: “We’ve worked with some great people to help produce some excellent events this summer.”

OCC have also introduced new parking restrictions to ease delays caused by badly parked cars in Wolvercote. As a result the City6 service which links Wolvercote and the Woodstock Road with the city centre will have more buses from the end of September. From 9:30am to 3:30pm buses will run every 10 minutes on weekdays, rather than every 15 minutes at the moment.

Assault appeal OXFORD: A 39-year-old man was attacked by a group of 15 people in Blackstock Close, Wood Farm, on August 11. The incident happened at around 9.30pm and the victim was punched and kicked, being left with cuts and bruises. Police believe the victim and offenders were known to each other and have so far arrested three teenagers, aged 16, 17 and 18, who have been bailed until September 21. Witnesses to the incident are asked to call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

By Adam Flinn adam@taylornewspapers.co.uk

STUDENTS across Oxfordshire were celebrating last Thursday as more than 90 per cent achieved pass rates in at least two A-Levels. Figures show 93 per cent of students in the county got two or more A-Levels between grades A* to E – similar to last year. At The Marlborough School in Woodstock, all pupils achieved at least a grade C in English Language and English Literature, while 80 per cent of candidates earned a grade B in Maths and Further Maths. More students from Oxford Academy are heading to university than ever before, as 97 per cent got two or more level three passes. Twenty-four pupils at Chipping Norton School received two or more A or A* grades, half of whom earned three. And nearly a third of boys at Abingdon School earned A* grades, with an overall pass rate of 99.8 per cent.

Solar panels on school rooftops By Jack Johnson jack@taylornewspapers.co.uk

SOLAR panels are being installed on the roofs of seven schools across the county as part of a scheme to generate enough energy to power 162 homes. Installation work will be fi nished at Warriner School in Banbury, Cheney Academy in Oxford, and Charlbury Primary in Chipping Norton this week. And the panels have already been installed at the Banbury Academy, Larkrise Primary and Wheatley Park School in Oxford, and Edward Field Primary in Kidlington. Renewable energy company Low Carbon Hub introduced the scheme this year and hope to install solar panels on a further 10 Oxfordshire schools. In total 3,000 solar panels will be fitted to generate 617-megawatt hours (MWh) per year of energy, saving 274 tonnes of carbon dioxide. The panels are fi nanced by Low Carbon Hub through community share offers. CEO Dr Barbara Hammond said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The scheme has proved

‘Side-boob’ and ‘bro hug’ in dictionary A HOST of new words most commonly heard from our TV sets have been added to Oxford University Press’ online dictionary. Words like side-boob, bingewatch and neckbeard have been added to the Oxford Dictionaries website. Amazeballs, Bank of Mum and Dad and bro hug have also been added. Oxford Dictionaries’ latest additions are as a result of research into current language trends. Oxford Dictionaries editor Katherine Connor Martin said: “Our language monitoring programme enables us to explore how English language evolves differently across the world. “Naturally, many words are used in similar frequencies in the UK and US, for instance the informal additions amazeballs and neckbeard.” Abbreviations WDYT (what do you think?) and YOLO (you only live once) have also made it on to the website.

Family saved after car river plunge

News Bites Student awards

By Katriona Ormiston katriona@taylornewspapers.co.uk

A FAMILY of four was rescued from the River Cherwell after their car dived 10m through the air before plunging into the water in north Oxfordshire on Sunday. Fire fighters waded into the river after the 7.15am crash to save the family near Nell Bridge between Aynho and Adderbury, near Banbury. The driver and three passengers managed to escape the car but were trapped in the river. Their injuries, shock of the crash, the depth of the water, and the steep embankments meant the family could not climb out. Fire fighters rescued them on arriving minutes after a 999 call from a passer-by. An Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue spokesman said: “A passer-by fortunately saw the accident and was able to raise the alarm. “The crews arrived at the scene within minutes, and following a prompt scene assessment, established that a single vehicle had left the highway and

careered 10m through the air fi nally coming to rest on its side, half submerged in the River Cherwell.” Fire fighters from Banbury, Deddington, and a specialist rescue crew from Kidlington were at the scene. Wearing dry suits and life jackets, they rescued the family from the river using spinal boards and rescue sleds. Paramedics from South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS)

took one person to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford by air ambulance and three people were taken there by ambulance. SCAS spokesman Catherine Morrow said: “None of them are believed to be seriously injured, they seem to have been pretty lucky.” Four ambulances, two ambulance officers and the Thames Valley and Chiltern Air Ambulance were called to the scene.

The fi re and rescue spokesman added: “The co-ordinated multi-agency approach resulted in a swift and successful conclusion and prevented a potentially more serious outcome.” Crews were then tasked with trying to stop petrol from the car leaking downriver. A specialist fi re and rescue environmental protection unit was called to the scene, where crews used water-fi lled booms to stop the fuel leak.

FOREST HILL: E-fits of two men have been released in connection with a distraction burglary of an elderly man’s home in Main Street on August 4. The victim had his goldcoloured pocket watch, a pair of gold and pearl earrings, a necklace and a 1914 sovereign coin stolen in the burglary. Between 8.45pm and 9pm on August 4, a man knocked on the victim’s door and asked to look in his back garden, claiming his dog had jumped over the gate. Once the victim returned to his property he noticed a second man running out of his front door. Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101.

Fireman tackles Pacific ocean in rowing success AN OXFORDSHIRE fireman and his team have finished a rowing expedition across the Pacific Ocean, coming home second after seven weeks at sea. Darren Taylor, 42, from Charlbury, was part of a four-man team called Battleborn who completed the rowing challenge from Monterey in California to Honolulu in Hawaii in 45 days. The team started the Great Pacific Race on June 9 and fi nished 13 hours behind eventual winners Uniting Nations when they crossed the line on July 24. “It didn’t seem hard until we fi nished,” said Darren, “but I think it was mostly mentally difficult. “Physically you just had to get

up and do it and it very much depended on what the conditions were like as to how hard it would be. “Once you have left sight of land you don’t have much choice except to carry on.” Darren took part in the race to raise awareness for Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease (YOPD) and raised £700 for Cure Parkinson’s Trust. The 42-year-old had been due to complete the race with his friend Alex Flynn, who has YOPD, but funding problems meant they delayed their joint attempt until next year.

Skydive to raise funds for little girl’s prosthetic limbs A HORSPATH woman is preparing to throw herself out of a plane on Monday to raise money for six-year-old Oxford schoolgirl Charlotte Nott, who lost her arms and legs to meningitis. Keely Sinnott, 37, will be joined by 23 others for the skydive at Hinton Airfield, near Brackley, on Monday. “I have known Charlotte since she was at pre-school with my daughter Isabelle and we always try to support fundraising events for her,” said Keely. “We did the skydive last year and, although I was nervous, I really enjoyed it and I am really looking forward to doing it again.”

Charlotte lost her limbs four years ago, and money raised will be used for specialist prosthetic arms and legs. As Charlotte grows, she needs two sets of legs each year, with each pair costing around £6,000. Her mum Jenny said: “We have had a great deal of support from our local community, for which we are extremely grateful. “It’s what keeps us going really – that and the look on Charlotte’s face when she masters new skills.” To donate, go to charlottesappeal.com.

It meant Darren was an 11th hour entry to Battleborn, teaming up with Irish skipper Philip Cavanagh, Wrexham’s Barry Hayes and Australian Dan Kierath. Despite only meeting them at the last minute, Darren described them as a “fantastic bunch of guys”. He added: “When you are living in a small boat and the cabin is probably about two thirds the

size of a double bed it can be difficult. “We were very much living in each other’s back pockets and I am sure everybody annoyed everyone at some point. “They are a fantastic bunch of guys, everyone brought their own skillset and we crossed the ocean with humour.” Darren wore a wristwatch throughout the row, which was monitored by experts in the

research department at Oxford Brookes University. He said: “It tracked very accurate readings of all my movements during the whole trip. “It will be able to see how my rowing technique improved and see the sleep deprivation and the affect on my body.” • Darren Taylor and his teammates celebrating crossing the Hawaii finish line

OXFORD: Staff and residents from 17 care homes took part in a dance-themed fun day yesterday at The King’s Centre in Osney Mead. Nearly 200 people from homes run by The Orders of St John Care Trust fi lled the centre with singing and dancing.

taken identities and we will perform it very much as a colourful, entertaining romp. “It is of course totally authentic. “We are following in the footsteps of Shakespeare’s own Globe Theatre when all roles were taken by men. “The Players have built a reputation for strong, all-male shows overs the past decade.” The Comedy of Errors is known for being one of Shakespeare’s most farcical comedies. It uses slapstick and mistaken identity to create the humour. It tells the story of two sets of identical twins that were accidently separated at birth, and who try to track each other down. Making Shakespeare more accessible is one of the Players’ key aims, so they ensure that their productions are kept relatively short. Michael added: “Our shows are never longer than two hours and we always try to make them crystal clear, and an amalgam of energy, entertainment and colour. “We set out to take audiences of all ages on a journey and make them feel very much part of the production.” The show takes place on August 28, and starts at 7pm.

ALL is calm on a quintessentially English country estate, until murder shatters the peace and throws the house guests into chaos. Eccentric physicist Sir Claud Amory is found dead and his new scientific formula has been stolen. Arriving at the estate just moments after the discovery, one man immediately senses treachery and deception and sets about deducing which one of Amory’s guests betrayed him. Hercule Poirot is on the case. Black Coffee, at the Oxford Playhouse from Tuesday, sees events unfold during this classic Poirot thriller. It is the fi rst play ever written by Agatha Christie - running at the Beaumont Street theatre from August 26 to August 30. It introduces a character who went on to become the most famous detective of all time - and the only fictional character ever to receive a full-page obituary in the New York Times.

LISTINGS students (max 15). The workshop will focus on many aspects of percussive guitar and will look at any struggles to employ them in your own playing. The workshop is suitable for those acoustic guitar players of intermediate to advanced ability (2/3 years playing experience upwards). If you would like a place and to take part in Mattâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s workshop, you must attend with your acoustic guitar (steel strung), in order for you to play along and take part in the lessons. By booking a place you will also be agreeing that you are the appropriate ability level on your instrument, and that you have some experience reading music notation or Tab. This day long experience will be an exciting opportunity for aspiring percussive guitarists to work closely with a world class teacher and performer. We expect this event to be very popular and to sell out fast. Book early to avoid disappointment. http://www.musicatthebarn.org/ 14 Sep 2014-5 Oct 2014, 10:00 am-5:30 pm Sarah Wiseman Gallery Three artists using photography in their work - Rory Carnegie, Rachael Edgar and David Rhys Jones www.wisegal.com 19 Sep 2014-21 Sep 2014, Throughout Wallingford and Cholsey

DIDCOT URBAN RACE 2014 Run, jog or just walk - this is a fun and exciting event for the Summer Bank Holiday! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organised by Thames Valley Orienteering Club and is ideal for all ages and abilities - families, children and runners too. An orienteering race does not follow a set route. Instead you have to visit a series of checkpoints and register each one with an electronic timing chip. The checkpoints may be along streets, alleyways, behind bushes in the areas of parkland or even around the Ladygrove lakes. The challenge is to decide what you think the quickest route will be between the checkpoints and then to find your own way along that route using a special orienteering map. The event takes place on Bank Holiday Monday 25 August, around the intricate streets and parkland of the Ladygrove estate. There will be several courses to choose from, ranging from 1km for children in a traffic free area, up to 7km for

Prices increase with ‘Summertown effect’ Newspaper House, 4A Hawksworth, Didcot, Oxfordshire OX11 7HR

The last 12 months have seen some very high prices being achieved in Central North Oxford and Summertown – much of the interest has focused on the roads surrounding Summertown as the natural draw of shops, restaurants and schools have had a continuing impact. Bertie Cassels of Butler Sherborn said: “With this demand there has been a knock on effect to prices of properties in the surrounding areas and the more modern developments on the fringes - not least in Waterways and also the earlier Berkeley Homes development in Jericho, Waterside. “Year on year we have seen price increases of over 25 per cent on these developments with the larger town houses now commanding nearly £650 per sq. ft. – a figure previously reserved for the popular Victorian housing in Summertown. “With the £1m barrier consistently being surpassed and demand from buyers ever increasing, there seems little sign that prices will ‘cool off’. “Equally, with housing on these developments being in the important catchment area for SS Phillip & James’, these properties offer buyers a genuine alternative to the ever popular 19th Century housing stock and the market is certainly one to watch.” To find out more, contact Butler Sherborn on 01865 510000 or e-mail oxford@butlersherborn.co.uk.

BIGGEST motoring newspaper

Review of the South Korean car company’s alternative run-around, the Hyundai i30

Hyundai’s everyday car offering THE i30 is Hyundai’s answer to the Volkswagen Golf, Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra. The new Generation i30 is longer, wider and lower than its predecessor – generating sportier exterior proportions without compromising interior functionality. Offered in three and five door hatchback guises, as well as an estate - all models come with a fiveyear, 100,000-mile warranty.

FACTS at a glance Hyundai i30 Active 1.6 CRDi 110PS Blue Drive Price: £18,295 Engine: 1.6-litre Euro V diesel DOHC 16v Transmission: 6 Speed Manual 0-62 mph: 11.5 seconds Top speed: 115 mph Economy: 76.3 mpg (combined) CO2 Emissions: 97g/km

REVIEW: Hyundai i30 Active 1.6 CRDi

By Philip Shoulder @writeonmotoring

The engine line-up ranges from a 98 bhp 1.4-litre petrol to a 126 bhp 1.6litre diesel. Tested here is the ultra efficient 109 bhp ‘Blue Drive’ diesel, which returns a claimed 76.3 combined mpg and emits only 97g/km, making it road tax exempt. Trim levels run from the basic Classic to Active, Style, Style Nav and Premium. All models come with Electronic Stability Programme (ESP), Hill-start Assist Control (HAC), air-conditioning, Bluetooth, voice recognition, and USB connectivity. This Active spec car adds cruise control, rear parking sensors, electric and front and rear windows. Inside it is attractively designed, if slightly reminiscent of some familiar European models. Regardless, it’s a big improvement on the old car. There’s a spacious feeling throughout the cabin and in the rear there’s ample head and legroom to accommodate six-footers. Stowage space is also plentiful in the i30 – the centre cubby

is particularly capacious – big enough to fit a small bag. There’s another little area for coins, cup holders, and a tray in the front of the gearstick. The boot has pretty good access and offers 378 litres of capacity – more than either the VW Golf or Ford Focus. This 109 bhp ‘Blue Drive’ diesel proves eager enough once the revs are up, but can lack low-down pulling power, resulting in frequent use of the gearbox at lower speeds – but the gear change is slick and easy to use. Steering is nicely weighted and comfortable to grip. This Blue Drive model gets high profi le tyres, which help to provide extra cushioning to an already pliant ride, making i30 a comfortable companion even when road surfaces deteriorate. It might not be the most interesting hatchback to drive, but it’s certainly capable, secure and hassle-free. The more time you spend behind the i30’s wheel, the more you begin to appreciate just how much it does right. Verdict - Hyundai’s i30 is an appealing, well-rounded package, offering a persuasive mix of talents; it’s worthy of serious consideration. • The Hyundai i30 Active 1.6 CRDi

Exiles lose out in Wasps friendly HEAD coach Justin Burnell said lessons must be learnt after London Welsh succumbed to a 38-24 defeat to Wasps on Sunday in their latest pre-season friendly. The Exiles led 17-10 after 50 minutes with a try from Nick Scott, a penalty try and a penalty from Olly Barkley. But a spirited fight-back from Wasps saw them regain the lead, with Nathan Hughes (2), Charlie Davies, Guy Thompson and Myall Kearnan crossing as the home side upped the intensity in the fi nal 30 minutes. Welsh however had the last word with a try from Chris Elder, ensuring that Burnell’s side enjoyed a bright end to the game. Events at Adams Park could not have been further removed from the Exile’s comfortable 64-0 win over Henley Hawks on August 9. “It was a massive learning curve,” said Burnell. “At 65 minutes we were more than in the game. But it was those certain areas at crucial times - there were four line-outs in the green

zone that we completely missed and you just can’t do that. “So we’re disappointed, but I also felt there were a lot of positives in there. The scrum was exceptional.” The Exiles will complete their pre-season programme when they take on Pontypridd at Sardis Road on Saturday, August 23. They will then open their Aviva Premiership campaign at home to Exeter Chiefs on September 7 at 2pm. “We’re very realistic as to what the challenge is going to be,” said Burnell. “We’ve got three weeks now to build and move forward into the Exeter game. “We’ll have time this week to review it and put things right.” For Burnell there were still plenty of positives to take from the game, with particular praise for the performances of Welsh’s debutants. “I was really pleased; Tim

Scott bids for starting place ahead of season LONDON Welsh’s friendly with Pontypridd on Saturday is the last chance for players to stake a claim for a starting place against Exeter Chiefs, says winger Nick Scott. The Exiles travel to Sardis Road for their fi nal pre-season fi xture before their Aviva Premiership campaign gets underway against the Chiefs at the Kassam Stadium on September 7. For Scott, whose try opened the scoring for Welsh against Wasps last Saturday, the friendly represents a huge opportunity to make sure of a place in Justin Burnell’s plans. “It’s the last chance everyone’s got to put a marker down to be in the team against Exeter on the opening weekend,” said Scott. “We know how good a team Ponty are. It will be a huge challenge and they’ll be out to take our scalp, especially having been promoted, and we’re going to have to be on top form. “But it’s also another opportunity to tweak things and try things, and improve on our skills, and to go in to the Premiership season on a high.” Welsh and Pontypridd met twice last season in the British and Irish Cup, with the Exiles losing 29-22 at Sardis Road before winning the return game 26-23 at the Kassam Stadium. “I’m really looking forward to going back, the atmosphere down there last time was incredible,” said Scott.

City draw with Chorley OXFORD City maintained their unbeaten start to the season after drawing 0-0 with newly promoted Chorley in the Vanarama Conference North on Saturday. The stalemate was the second in five days for City at Marsh Lane after last week’s goalless draw with Worcester City. The away side dominated possession in the fi rst half but failed to test Mark Scott in goal for City. Chorley were reduced to ten men after the break as midfielder Harry Winter was given a straight red for a professional foul. However, Justin Merritt’s side failed to create enough clear-cut chances and were forced to settle for a point. The result leaves City eighth in the league table with five points from three games. City’s next match will be on Saturday when they travel to Solihull Moors, who sit ninth in the table. City have also signed South African-born striker Bidemi Afolabi from Corby Town. Afolabi previously played for Irish sides Bray Wanderers and Clongowes Wood, for whom he scored 64 goals in just 31 appearances between 2010 and 2012. The highly rated youngster has been recently linked with interest from several highprofi le clubs including Manchester United and Celtic.

United captain confident of getting results after Morecambe defeat

SKIPPER BACKS U’S TO MAKE THINGS WRIGHT CAPTAIN Jake Wright says Oxford United will start winning games soon after the U’s were condemned to a third successive league defeat at table toppers Morecambe on Tuesday night. Kevin Ellison’s 39th minute goal was all that separated the sides at the Globe Arena and the U’s are one of four teams yet to score a single point in Sky Bet League Two this season. However, following defeats to Burton Albion, Mansfield Town and Morecambe, Wright is confident that United will soon pick up points – starting on Saturday at home to Portsmouth. “It was the best we’ve played all season,” said Wright.

By Jack Johnson

jack@taylornewspapers.co.uk

“We’re devastated we lost the game, gutted, but if we keep carrying on playing like that, creating that many chances, we can’t keep losing games. “We will start winning games and when we do we will get on a roll because the way we are playing is really refreshing. “If we weren’t creating chances you would be questioning it, but we are creating chance after chance.” United felt aggrieved to have not left Lancashire with at least a point after Danny Rose’s free-

kick hit the bar and two penalty shouts were turned down. Danny Hylton was booked for diving after keeper Barry Roche hauled him down, while there was a handball appeal late on. “The fi rst one was a blatant penalty,” said Wright. “That would have changed the game - we score the penalty, the keeper gets sent off, we’re against 10 men chasing, trying to win the game. “We’re devastated, but we can’t do anything about it, it’s the referee’s decision. “He’s made the wrong decision, but it happens in football, you’ve just got to get on with it.” The 28-year-old added: “For 80 minutes of a 90 minute game we dominated. “Fair play to Morecambe they are top of the league and they have had three wins out of three - but I think it was clear for everybody to see that we played really well.”
