CAMRA URGES SWIFT ACTION TO STOP PUBS CLOSING CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale, is pressing the Government to act now to help save pubs in light of the latest CGA-CAMRA Pub Tracker, which shows that the number of net pub closures in the UK remains high at 29 per week – almost twice the number of pub closures in 2011. These figures coincide with a new clause to the Infrastructure Bill in England, tabled this week by a cross-party group of MPs, which would mean that planning permission is always required

before demolishing or converting a pub into a supermarket convenience store or other retail use. Tim Page, CAMRA Chief Executive says: “It is currently possible to convert a pub into a betting shop, pay-day loan store or supermarket without the need for planning permission, making it far too easy for pubs valued by the community to be lost without local people having a say. Given the huge contribution that pubs make to community life in Britain we believe this cannot be right.”

“The clause tabled by Charlotte Leslie MP is a fantastic opportunity to get the Government to take swift action to close these planning loopholes. We urge every MP who supports local communities and local pubs to get behind this clause and help secure a better future for the great British pub industry. We hope that we can rally support from sufficient MPs to persuade Ministers to reconsider their current refusal to provide effective planning protection for viable and valued pubs.”

This attempt to amend the Infrastructure Bill is a huge step forward for CAMRA’s Pubs Matter campaign, which calls on the Government to make a simple change to the law in England so that a planning application is required before a pub is demolished or converted into another use. This change would give pubs the same protection that exists for sites such as theatres, scrap yards and nightclubs. It would also give communities the chance to have a say when their local pub is under threat.

The campaign has so far secured the support of nearly 100 MPs for an Early Day Motion on pub demolition and change of use. CAMRA is calling on all MPs to support the clause and make the changes necessary to support local pubs across the country. Charlotte Leslie MP for Bristol North West says: “We urgently need a change to the law to protect pubs like The Bourne End in Brentry in my constituency from being simply demolished, or turned into a supermarket before the community has had the ability to have its say. Of course there will be some pubs that simply are not viable, but we must reset the balance in favour of the community, not the big developers.”

SEE LOCAL CHAMPION KELL BROOK DEFEND HIS TITLE AT THE ARENA addition to the stacked card. “To see Kell walk out in front of a sold-out crowd in his hometown of Sheffield is going to be an emotional night,” said promoter Eddie Hearn. “Kell has gone to America and beaten an American to win the World title – it’s a massive achievement and it shows that he is a very, very special fighter. Jo Jo Dan is a tough fight, there’s no way that Kell can be anything but 100 per cent to beat him – and I have no doubt that he will be. There are some massive fights out there for Kell if he can take care of Jo Jo, but his focus is solely on Dan and I expect him to shine on March 28.”

Tickets are now on general sale and will be available online at www.motorpointarenasheffield.co.uk, by phone on 0114 256 5656 or in person at the Arena Box Office. Tickets purchased online or by phone are priced £44 - £165 including booking fee. Tickets purchased in person at the Arena Box Office are priced £42 £157.50 including booking fee. Tickets are limited to 4 per person.

If I had a penny for every time someone said I have OCD, I’d have 967274 pence. I went onto Dragons Den with a pencil that had a rubber on each end. They couldn’t see the point. A woman walked up to a little old man rocking in a chair on his porch. “I couldn’t help noticing how happy you look,” she said. “What’s your secret for a long happy life?”. “I smoke three packs of cigarettes a day,” he said. “I also drink a case of whiskey a week, eat fatty foods, and never exercise.” “That’s amazing,” the woman said. “How old are you?’....” Twenty-six,” he said. A man died and went to The Judgment, they told him , “Before you meet with God, I should tell you — we’ve looked over your life, and to be honest you really didn’t do anything particularly good or bad. We’re not really sure what to do with you. Can you tell us anything you did that can help us make a decision?” The newly arrived soul thought for a moment and replied, “Yeah, once I was driving along and came upon a person who was being harassed by a group of thugs. So I pulled over, got out a bat, and went up to the leader of the thugs. He was a big, muscular guy with a ring pierced through his lip. Well, I tore the ring out of his lip, and told him he and his gang had better stop bothering this guy or they would have to deal with me!” “Wow that’s impressive, “When did this happen?” “About three minutes ago,” came the reply. An old man went to the Doctor complaining that his wife could barely hear. The Doctor suggested a test to find out the extent of the problem. “Stand far behind her and ask her a question, and then slowly move up and see how far away you are when she first responds.” The old man excited to finally be working on a solution for the problem, runs home and sees his wife preparing supper. ” Honey” the man asks standing around 20 feet away “whats for supper?” After receiving no response he tried it again 15 feet away, and again no response. Then again at 10 feet away and again no response. Finally he was 5 feet away “honey whats for supper?” She replies “For the fourth time it’s lasagna!”

Kell Brook will defend his IBF World Welterweight title against number one mandatory challenger ‘Jo Jo’ Dan at the Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield on March 28. Tickets are now on general sale. The Sheffield star landed the title in August with a career-high win over Shawn Porter and makes a long-awaited return to action in his hometown, with his first defence of the title being his first fight in the Steel City since he stopped Vyacheslav Senchenko in October 2013. Brook dives straight into the deep-end following his life-threatening injury when he was attacked whilst on holiday in September as he meets the Canadianbased Romanian Dan, who edged out Kevin Bizier in a final eliminator for ‘The Special One’s’ title in December. “After everything that’s happened over the last six months, it feels incredible knowing I will be defending my World title in Sheffield,” said Brook. “I want to get this mandatory out of the way and then target those mega fights that are out there in the division. There is no chance that I will be underestimating Jo Jo Dan though as I know how he will be feeling having worked so hard to get into the mandatory position just like I did, but I will be working twice as hard to keep the belt that I earned.” Brook’s first World title defence is supported by a great undercard as talented Steel City favourite Adam Etches defends his IBF International Middleweight title against Sergey Khomitsky, Gavin McDonnell continues his fairy tale story challenging Ukrainian Oleksander Yegorov for the vacant European Super Bantamweight title. Kal Yafai continues his march towards a World title, GB Podium squad member Charlie Edwards fights for the second time in the paid ranks on the bill.

TOM ODELL ANNOUNCES FOREST LIVE TOUR DATES

Tom Odell has announced a very special tour of the nation’s forests for 2015. The exceptionally talented artist is the first act to announce multiple dates as part of Forestry Commission’s Forest Live which will see him perform in seven spectacular woodland venues across England. Released in June 2013, Tom Odell’s debut album ‘Long Way Down’ shot straight to number one. He heard the news whilst performing on the John Peel Stage at Glastonbury that year. Described by The Telegraph as “utterly compelling”, singles from the album including ‘Can’t Pretend’, ‘Hold Me’ and the gargantuan ‘Another Love’ illustrate a song-writing maturity beyond his years. This has resulted in his achieving the ultimate industry accolade of ‘Songwriter of the Year’ at the 2014 Ivor Novello Awards as well as previously winning the BRITs Critics’ Choice Award for 2013. Following a succession of sold out headline tours and with ‘Long Way Down’ being certified gold, a packed summer of festival appearances in 2014 included V Festival, Isle of Wight and a show supporting one of his idols Neil Young at Hyde Park. Chosen to perform the soundtrack to this year’s John Lewis Christmas advert, the 24-year-old has added his spine-tingling vocals to a

cover of John Lennon’s classic ‘Real Love’, generating millions of YouTube views. Tom is currently in the studio recording his new album. Forest Live is an independent programme organised by the Forestry Commission to bring forests to new audiences. Income generated from ticket sales is spent on protecting, improving and expanding England’s forests and woodlands and increasing their value to people and wildlife. Over Forest Live’s 14 year history, money raised has contributed to a wide range of projects, from wildlife conservation to making improvements for visitors. With everything required for a great night out, including full catering and bar facilities, the gigs are renowned for their relaxed atmosphere. Commenting on his forest gigs, Tom Odell said, “This will be a whole new experience for me. I can’t wait to bring my live show to the

woods and I hope to see you there.”

The programme will be delivered in five areas in England (Sheffield and Devon), Scotland (Glasgow), Wales (Cwm Taf) and Northern Ireland (Western Trust Area). The Substance Misuse and Ageing Research Team (SMART) at the University of Bedfordshire is leading the evaluation of the programme.

Sheffield 50+ has been asked to help by providing initial feedback on the questionnaire that will be sent out. Issues to be explored include acceptability, wording, clarity and range of responses provided in the questionnaire. Would you like to help out?

DAWN & DEAN OF EASTWOOD VIEW SEE A GREAT FUTURE FOR FAMOUS VENUE When drummer Dean Bush took over the former Eastwood View WMC last autumn with wife Dawn, he knew he would have no time for playing his drum kit – there was far too much to do! The former Achtung Baby and Crashers founder is now mine host at probably the largest pub anywhere in the Mercury region.

For now his drum kit sits alone on the stage of one of the largest rooms in Yorkshire – but not for long because Dawn and Dean are bringing back live entertainment in a big way in the huge, 700 capacity concert room.

Just take a look at who’s performing over the next couple of months…

THE MERCURY WIN TICKETS TO SEE THE MULTI AWARD New WINNING MARK THOMAS AT THE CRUCIBLE Year Old TEAMS UP WITH Wardrobe DONCASTER RACECOURSE Following a total sell-out Edinburgh Fringe run once again, one of comedy’s elder statesmen and all-round arty mischief-maker continues his 8th nationwide tour with a comedy of betrayal, appearing at The Crucible on Thursday 26th Febraury. Mark Thomas tells his true story of how Britain’s biggest arms manufacturer, BAE Systems, came to spy on a comedian in this five star, multi-ward winning, critically acclaimed tale of hubris, planes, demos and undercover deceit. In 2012, Mark’s first ever oneman theatre piece, Bravo Figaro, a touching and poignant tale first commissioned by the Royal Opera House about his opera-loving father which sold out its entire Fringe run, won Mark a Herald Angel award, a Scotsman Fringe

First, and was recently broadcast on Radio 4. The show is set to tour Australia and New Zealand in 2015. With Cuckooed, his second theatre piece, Mark was awarded his second Scotsman Fringe First, as well as the Amnesty International Freedom of Expression award, an honour for which Mark declared was “a very inspiring experience and I feel very humbled”. Mark’s shows have always been entirely different from each other; he’s stopped arms deals, created a manifesto and brought the winning policy to parliament, walked the entire length of the Israeli wall in the West Bank and most recently completed 100 Acts of Minor Dissent, which included taking the police to court over surveillance and finding a new definition for the word ‘Farage’. We all know that it’s not just his live shows for which Mark creates the trouble he has become famous for; his Channel 4 series The Mark Thomas Comedy Product ran for six series, he’s published three books and a manifesto, had various series commissioned by Radio 4, won a Sony Award for My Life in Serious Organised Crime, been a regular contributor to political magazine The New Statesman, won numerous awards, holds a Guinness World Record, investigated

everything from Coca-Cola to inheritance tax avoidance in various TV documentaries, given evidence to Parliamentary Select Committees and stopped multinational infrastructure deals. Oh, and of course he’s been arrested countless times in one day. Fortunately, he has just enough b*****d in him to prevent him from becoming a national treasure. Mark plays at The Crucible in Sheffield on Thursday 26th February. Tickets are available from www.sheffieldtheatres.com or by calling 0114 249600.

COMPETITION To be in with a chance of winning a pair of tickets to this amazing show simply answer the following question and send your entry to info@mercurynewspaper. co.uk before 13/2/15 How many series were there of The Mark Thomas Comedy Project on Channel 4? Closing Date: 13/2/15

Robin Hood & Babes in the Wood

Penistone Theatre Group are back by popular demand with their annual Pantomime. Over the years this community group has built up a massive following producing Pantomimes which rival anything put on at the big City Theatres. A great night for all the family. This year they perform their own version of Robin Hood and the Babes in the Wood. When King Richard goes off to fight the evil Saracens he makes the misguided decision to leave his two children with his brother, the Sheriff of Nottingham, for safekeeping. The Sheriff enlists the help of his old nanny Nurse Phillipa Bedpan to look after them at the Castle. When the he realises he will inherit his brother’s fortune should the Babes die, he hatches an evil plan to get rid of them. He tricks two simpletons, Cod & Piece to do the deed. They take the Babes deep into heart of the forest where they leave them to die. The outlaw Robin Hood hears of this wrong-doing and with the help of Maid Marian and his band of Merry Men (Friar Tuck, Little John, and Will Scarlett) he thwarts the plan and takes the children into hiding. Needless to say, the Sheriff is not a happy man. Oh No He Isn’t! In an attempt to lure Robin out of hiding the Sheriff organises an archery contest, the prize for which is Maid Marian’s hand in marriage. Will the Sheriff of Nottingham do away with the Sherwood do-gooders, marry Maid Marian for himself and commit the townsfolk to a life of tyranny and extortion? It has all the usual ingredients and a few more. Don’t miss this great show. Many performances sell out so book early.

Angler’s Corner with Clint Walker

A week of crushing disappointment, swiftly followed by a bit of a celebration really.... I set my stall out to go pike fishing this week, so all the necessary preparations were made, flask filled, deadbaits thawed and tackle packed. First thing in the morning, I was off to a nearby lake (the snow made travelling any further a little too risky) which I knew to be ice free and fishing reasonably well. I arrived at 0730, ready to set up for first light, and to my chagrin, I found the gates securely locked! There was no sign to indicate an issue, so I thought I’d wait patiently for a few minutes... After half an hour, and several unanswered calls to the bailiffs phone, I sat fuming in my van before weighing up my options. I’d now been waiting an hour, so was well into ‘rush hour’ and further travel to a likely venue would take almost as long, before setting up added even more wasted minutes, so, in a huff, I went home to sulk! I only get to fish once per week, so I was extremely disappointed that the gates were not open, and showed no signs of it either; fishery owners need customers, and it could be extremely damaging to trade if unreliability becomes a talked about feature of that particular venue, so at least put a sign on the gate! I know that the fishery eventually opened the gates at around 1030... but what’s the point if a full days fishing is planned? Grrr.... On a much more positive note, I’ve been approached by a prominent game developer to provide content and images for the

accompanying website. After a few days of discussion, I’m happy to say that I’ve agreed to join the team at Dovetail Games who produce the outstanding fishing simulator Dovetail Games Fishing. Currently, the game is in early access stages with two phases released (a third is imminent!) but which faithfully follows the carp fishing experience, so for gamers, it’s a must have for those days when you can’t hit the bank (like me, this week!) There are some big hitters involved in this sim, the likes of Korda and others have had huge input into making it the best fishing game available, with realistic scenarios and situations requiring the player to put some thought into how to tackle a number of different waters. Eventually, the game will expand to include other species and other disciplines, encompass real waters, complete with underwater features to find, both from the UK and Europe, so you really can fish that big carp water in France... without leaving home! Sparsholt College stalwart Simon Scott has been involved to ensure lifelike species behaviour and to provide details of expected seasonal variations and much more, as Dovetail Games Fishing seeks to be the ultimate game for the fisherman who enjoys online angling. It’s also an ideal way for the prospective angler to find out a little more about fishing before going to the expense of buying real tackle too, so hopefully it may even encourage a few newcomers to our sport, and the information offered by a number of other contributors may even allow seasoned anglers to pick up a few tips too!

LOCAL FOOTBALL

by Michael Clarke All but five games in the County Senior League were postponed due to the latest cold snap to hit the South Yorkshire region.

Premier Division Swinton Athletic had the opportunity to take back top spot in the Premier Division as all but their game away against Wickersley was postponed in the Premier Division on Saturday. They took their chance, as goals from Shaun Turner and Alex Wilkinson gave them a 2-1 win at Wickersley School. Swinton now lead the way with a one point cushion over second placed Houghton Main. Still only four points separate the top five in a congested title race. Division One Penistone Church Reserves moved into third position in Division One in spectacular fashion, with a 5-0 home win over Ecclesfield Red Rose. Bradley Kemp

STEELERS NEWS

DOYLE INJURED AS STEELERS SIGN TWO NEW STARS Its been a couple of very busy days for head coach Gerad Adams and the Steelers staff resulting in two new signings for the club, with both making their debuts against Coventry Blaze later today. Steelers received confirmation on Wednesday that goalie Frank Doyle would be missing for a minimum of three weeks following scans on a hand injury that had been troubling him for a while. This news resulted in Adams moving for Josh Unice a 25 year old goalie from Holland, Ohio (USA). Unice was a 3rd round draft pick for the Chicago Blackhawk’s in 2007 after he represented Team USA at U17, U18 and U20 level at three World Championships. The Steelers new goalie flew into the UK on Friday morning and trained with his new team mates later that day. On Friday the Steelers were made aware of the possibility of signing the highly rated Slovakian forward Tomas Petruska from Graz 99ers (Austria). Petruska was an All Star last season in Denmark after scoring 20 goals and 46 assists for Herning Blue Foxs. Petruska also represented Slovakia at the U18 and U20 levels.

SHEFFIELD’S NUMBER ONE SPORTS BARS 255 ECCLESALL ROAD | S11 8NX LOXLEY NEW ROAD | S6 4NG WWW.CHAMPSSHEFFIELD.COM was the star of the show for Penistone, scoring three times. Pete Hobson and Joe Baldwin were also on target for an in-form Penistone, who are unbeaten in the league since late-September (seven games ago). U21 Division Alex Lill and Aminur Rahman were on target for Swallownest Miners Welfare U21 as they beat Denaby United U21 2-1 at Old Road Playing Fields. The win stretches Swallownest’s unbeaten league run to seven games. S&HCFA Association Cup Worsbrough Bridge Athletic Reserves booked their place in the Quarter-finals of the Association Cup with an impressive 2-1 home win over Kirkburton. Worsbrough Bridge will host Kiveton Park in their Quarter-final tie. Denaby Main of Division Two claimed the scalp of Division One leaders North Gawber Colliery to reach the Semi-finals of the Association Cup. Denaby Main were were 4-2 winners at Woolley Miners Welfare.

Negotiations were completed quickly and a transfer agreed with Graz. Petruska will catch an early flight out of Austria on Saturday morning and arrive inSheffield early in the afternoon, in time to play against the Blaze at the arena on Saturday evening (face off 7.00pm) International clearance has been agreed for both players. “What a few days it has been” said Adams “On Wednesday we received a hammer blow about Frank. He had scans in the afternoon and we received the results a few hours later. “We had feared the worst and started a search for a new goalie hoping it wouldn’t be needed but it was. We are very lucky to have signed Josh so quickly. He is an impressive young man looking to come to Sheffield and make a name for himself. “Josh arrived in time to get some ice and meet the guys on Friday and he will start against Coventry” Adams then confirmed the agreement for Petruska “this is probably the quickest signing I have ever been a part of” he said “we got the word that Tomas was available if we were prepared to move quickly. I think for being made available to us agreeing a deal with less than 90 minutes “I can’t thank Tony and the staff enough for making these two deals happen. They have shown that they believe in this team and what we are trying to achieve here. They like me want the best and don’t want us to play short in the run in. “It’s been a long and difficult week with injuries playing a big part. Now though with Cullen Eddy back in the line up and Josh and Tomas arriving I’mconfident we can have a great weekend” Superbly located for Holidays & Short Stays

JOE SKARZ PARTS CONOR READY WITH MILLERS TO TAKE HIS CHANCE

The former Huddersfield and Bury leftback was an integral member of the Millers League Two promotion winning side in 2013 and the League One play-off winning side of 2014. In total Joe made 77 appearances for the Millers in all competitions, scoring two goals. Everyone at Rotherham United would like to wish Joe the very best for the future and he will always be welcome back at the AESSEAL New York Stadium. “Joe is a young man who can be described as a fantastic professional and a lad who has given us some fantastic service in his time with the Millers,” boss Steve Evans told www. themillers.co.uk “Over the last few weeks he has become increasingly frustrated at not starting first team matches and made it clear he needed to play and start on a regular basis. “The lad leaves the dressing room with all our best wishes and from a personal level I can only wish Joe and his family every success for the future. “He will always be welcome not only at the AESSEAL New York Stadium but also at our training ground where his coffee making skills need some work!”

PAUL DICKOV ON... Gaffer gives his opinions on various Rovers related aspects... New signing Stephen Bywater…. “I’m not sure about the yoga, but he looks after himself and is as fit as a fiddle.” Taking Abdul Razak for a meal…. “I did [take him out for dinner], it didn’t last very long if I’m being honest!” Razak as a player…. “He’ll bring a lot of energy, he’s a tough boy who’ll put his foot in but he’s got a lot of quality on the ball and he’s got everything you want from a midfielder.” Bringing in a striker… “Would I like to bring in another striker? Yes. Would another 91 football league managers want another striker? Probably. But I don’t want to knock the strikers we’ve got because they’ve done an unbelievable job for the team.” Dean Furman’s international commitments…. “I am going to watch him, I’ve text him to wish him luck and i hope he does well. We’ve missed him.” Turning a corner… “It makes a change from earlier in the season where we made mistakes and were playing catch up.” The next generation… “Paul Wilson and Paul Stancliffe have done really well with them; they’ve got some lads with professional contracts already. It will be tough, as it was against Swansea, but they can go down there and do well. Those without contracts now have to catch my eye.

Midfielder Conor Newton has pledged to take any first-team opportunities with both hands after recent substitute cameos at Blackpool and Brentford. The Newcastle-born player has been kicking his heels on the sidelines since making the summer switch from his hometown club but after catching the eye of Millers’ chief Steve Evans following some impressive reserve team outings either side of the New Year, Newton has forced his way into Rotherham’s first-team reckoning. Speaking exclusively to Millers Matchday recently following his 30-minute appearance at Griffin Park, Newton is under no illusions of the importance of taking the opportunity when and where it arises with fierce competition for places within the Millers’ engine room. “It’s always a little frustrating being on the periphery of the first-team but we brought a lot of good players here in the summer,” he conceded. “I wouldn’t be human if it wasn’t my aim to start more games and I want to force my way into the starting 11 and put in the kind of performances to ensure I can stay there.” Newton demonstrated his ability to dictate the tempo of midfield affairs while showing his eye for goal with a superb debut strike during the Millers’ pre-season draw with Falkirk during their Scottish tour. Despite early promise, Newton has found himself down the pecking order in the first half of the campaign with his only appearance being as a second-half substitute in the League Cup exit to Swansea City in late August and Newton concedes he has had to tailor his game to deal with the demands of English and Championship football. “Compared to Scottish football, the standard in

MERCURY SPORT - SHEFFIELD UNITED

BLADES NEWS2014/15 CUP FORM CONTINUES AS BLADES EARN REPLAY United’s barrage of cup fixtures continued with a replay needed to decide this FA Cup fourth round tie. Less than 24 hours after Kieron Freeman, Paul Coutts and John Brayford signed for the Blades, Nigel Clough’s side played out another close encounter with Preston North End. At Deepdale, Paul Gallagher gave Preston the lead before Diego De Girolamo’s first Blades goal secured a draw. Boss Clough made a total of eight changes for today’s all Sky Bet League One tie - Preston made six of their own. Baxter, a scorer at Deepdale

earlier in the season, skippered the team, which included four teenagers and Davies making his first appearance following a foot injury sustained in October. The make-up of the Blades line-up was interesting, starting with three at the back, Davies and Alcock in wing back positions, Dimaio, Reed and Baxter in midfield and Higdon and De Girolamo as the front two. The home side looked the more threatening early on, Gallagher particularly - he started and almost finished a move on eight minutes but the subsequent shot

was deflected wide. The former Blades loanee did, however, open the scoring soon after. Kennedy was adjudged to have fouled Reid 30 yards out and GALLAGHER’s pinpoint free-kick found the bottom corner of Howard’s net. A couple of Davies free-kicks gave United opportunities to get back into the game. His first saw Higdon win the initial header but Basham could not get on the end of it and the second was a shot at goal, but was wide of the near post. During the first half United also reverted to 4-4-2 with Basham moving into midfield which coincided with chances drying up for both sides. Baxter was industrious but neither Stuckmann nor Howard were troubled again before the half-time break. The first chance of the second half was the result of a mistake by De Girolamo, but Howard saved from Reid’s 25-yard shot. It was the start of an eventful ten minutes, in terms of chances. From Basham’s flick,

De Girolamo beat Stuckmann but Woods cleared off the line and then Baxter shot at the home goalkeeper. For Preston, Reid’s mazy run ended with his shot being deflected wide and then Gallagher curled just past the post, whilst Murphy was introduced for the Blades and was quickly denied by Stuckmann. The Blades were applying the majority of pressure and Higdon thought he should have had a penalty following Huntington’s challenge but referee Stroud was unmoved. Higdon also fired over from Murphy’s pass on 65 minutes. Kennedy was the first to be booked and Preston went very close to adding a second when Clarke met Gallagher’s free-kick but United were continuing to be the aggressors with regards to attacking and the leveller arrived on 68 minutes. Baxter went early with a free-kick and Murphy got around the back of the defence before pulling back for DE GIROLAMO to force the ball home in front of the 2,819 Blades fans. De Girolamo went close to adding a second following Reed’s pass before the goalscorer was replaced by McNulty. As the last 10 minutes approached, Gallagher shot at Howard and Baxter was booked for kicking the ball away before Harris replaced the tiring Davies. Late on Reed was book despite appearing to win the ball. Huntington headed at Howard from a late, deep free-kick and five minutes of added time gave both sides hope of snatching a winner but apart from late corner when the Blades fans appealed for handball against Huntington, there were little opportunity for a winner.

THE BEARD RETURNS

Cult hero John Brayford is back - but this time he signs for United on a permanent deal. The 27-year-old versatile defender, who impressed in a loan spell with the Blades last season, signs for an undisclosed fee and has agreed a threeand-a-half year deal. The Blades have been patient in tracking him and securing his signature is the result of a tremendous amount of hard work by the Board of Directors and staff at Bramall Lane. “We are absolutely thrilled he is coming back permanently, John has been at the top of our list for a long time

and our patience has finally been rewarded,” confirmed boss Nigel Clough. “There aren’t very many loan players who galvanise a team and Club like John did last season, simply by his actions on the field. “John has made no secret of his desire to return to Sheffield United and as a Club we have finally worn Cardiff City down and they accepted a bid. Russell Slade didn’t want to lose John, he has been impressed with him since taking over at Cardiff, but he knew the situation and our admiration wasn’t going to go away.”

MERCURY SPORT - SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY

OWLS NEWS2014/15 TARGETS KEANE DELIGHTED MATTOCK OWLS RETURN WITH OWLS SWITCH New recruit Will Keane has spoken of his delight having joined Wednesday on loan for the rest of the season. The Manchester United striker linked up with the Owls on Thursday and is itching to get started at Hillsborough. Keane told swfc.co.uk: “We don’t have a game on Saturday but we play Birmingham on Tuesday so that’s not long to wait. “I’m really looking forward to it. Sheffield Wednesday contacted United and it appealed to me straight away because this is a massive club with a great history.

“I’m sitting here in the ground now looking around and it’s a huge place. I just want to come here and help do my bit for the team and hopefully get some game time and score some goals.” On the Old Trafford books since the age of ten, Keane has picked up many positive traits having learned from some of the leading talents in the game. And he credits Champions League winner and former United star Ole Gunnar Solskaer in particular for aiding his development.

Keane added: “I did a lot of work with Ole, who took the strikers at United. “His record in front of goal was right up there on the biggest stage and you can’t help but learn from players like that. “I just want to play now and do myself justice. I was at Hillsborough whilst on loan with Wigan and QPR so I know the potential of the club. “I want to make the most of this opportunity and give it my all for Sheffield Wednesday.”

Joe Mattock has outlined his main ambition for the rest of the campaign. The 24-year-old has been sidelined with a thigh injury since Wednesday’s victory over Wigan last month. But the left back is now back on track and battling to regain his place in the side, as the Owls prepare for a double-header this week against Birmingham and Reading. He said: “My main focus is to get as many games

as I possibly can under my belt between now and the end of the year. “I want to be out there contributing and doing my best for the side. “Hopefully I can stay out of the treatment room

now and I will get a chance to get back in the team in the near future. “I want to help the team finish as high up in the table as we can. “As a footballer, you don’t want to be in the stands watching the game. I’ve enjoyed watching the team do well but, at the same time, my job is to play for Sheffield Wednesday.

BUXTON EYES COMEBACK

Lewis Buxton continued on the comeback trail by storing an hour under the belt during the Under-21s’ home game against Barnsley on Monday. The Middlewood Road clash ended 2-0 to the visitors but for Buxton, the fixture represented a significant stepping stone on the route to full fitness. Coach Lee Bullen said: “It was great to see Lewis back out there and for him to get an hour to his name is a positive. “I thought he acquitted himself really well, he was up and down the line and got some decent challenges in. “The plan was always to give Lewis an hour.

“It’s hard work even for a player of Lewis’ experience to come back into a game environment
