YOUNG VOICES UNITE AT THE SHEFFIELD ARENAThe largest Children’s choir in the world, Young Voices is celebrating their 20th an-niversary in style by completing a mara-thon of 20 arena dates up and down the country with over 120,000 excited singing school children aged from 6-13. Over 25,000 local children will be perform-ing at Sheffi eld Arena next week with Young Voices over 5 nights from Monday 18th-Friday 22nd January. Tickets purchased online at www.sheffi eld-arena.co.uk or by phone on 0114 256 5656 are priced £23.65 including booking fee. Tickets purchased in person at the Arena box offi ce are priced £22.58 including booking fee. Young Voices provides an unrivalled musical opportunity for primary school children to perform all styles of music including folk, pop, rock and classical. Young Voices is designed to unify children from across the region, boost their confi dence and provide lifelong memories for them and their fami-lies. Teachers & Pupils practice the dance routines and learn the songs in their music lessons for many months before they excit-edly come together for the penultimate show at their local arena. This is an unmissable opportunity for local school choirs to sing
in huge arenas alongside some of the most talented & well known artists from the world of music. Their choirs range from 4,500 to 8,500 children, all performing at the same time to capacity audiences of friends and family. Nothing can prepare you for the sound of thousands of children singing in harmony. Young Voices combines the power of singing together as one, with accompaniment from a wide range of musicians and artists, to create an amazing performance. Every year, schools across the country prac-tise their music in class with their teachers to prepare themselves to take part in these massive concerts. Over the years the children in the choir have performed with artists such as Alexandra Burke, Joss Stone, and Gary Barlow as well as raising over 1 million pounds for Children’s charities such as CLIC Sargent. “The most amazing time of my life” – X-factor winner Alexandra Burke on her time at Young Voices Ben Lewis, Managing Director of Young Voices is adamant that “every pupil should be exposed to music at an early age, whether the joy is singing, playing an instrument or loving the sound of music, the potential benefi ts are huge. My father David, started Young Voices 20 years ago, I can’t believe how much we’ve grown. 20 arena dates to mark our 20th anniversary is such an achievement and shows the we are making a real difference to the children and schools” “It was a most fabulous experience! All the children sung brilliantly and enjoyed shining their torches to create incredible effects. We all enjoyed the dancing and listening to all the singers and groups. “Music Teachers at Foresters Primary School

Your determinati on to overcome any obstacles can be considerable. However, it’s going to be important not to get caught up in trying to prove a point, just because you don’t want to give in. Single? The fi rst half of the week can see a romanti c imaginati on working overti me. Call for more...
Is there someone in your circle who is proving quite a tantalising att racti on to you? They may not be parti cularly obvious about it, but watch out for body language, because that may reveal some clues. Any recent anxiety you have been feeling may not be at a complete end. Call for more...

COUNCIL CONTINUES CRACKDOWN ON ILLICIT ALCOHOL SALESSheffi eld City Council have shown further commitment to the crack down on illicit alcohol sales, after revoking the licence from the owner of two shops, who was caught selling illegal alcohol despite a previous offence.This was the outcome of the Licensing
Sub-Committee hearing held on Monday 4 January, which saw Rhythm and Booze on Abbeydale Road and also on Brooklands Avenue, Fulwood permanently lose their licences after the seizure of illegal alco-hol following inspections by the Trading Standards team.The illicit alcohol was discov-ered on sale just six weeks after the licensee, Mr Jigar Patel, had been convicted of similar of-fences at Sheffi eld Magistrates Court in July 2015.The grounds for reviewing
these licences came under Pre-vention of Crime and Disorder, Public safety and Protection of Children from Harm. Repre-sentation was also made by the Sheffi eld Safeguarding Chil-dren Board over concerns about the serious lack of systems in place to control under age sales at both premises.Councillor Mazher Iqbal, Cabi-net Member for Public Health and equality said: “We will not tolerate the sale of illicit alcohol products. In this case the alcohol was genuine but
had been bought illegally. That means Mr Patel could not have known whether the contents were genuine or counterfeit and this poses serious health risks to the communities these shops serve, hence the need to review the licences.“Counterfeit alcohol can cause severe illness, vomiting, nausea, blindness and death. It is not produced to industry standards, so consumers have no idea of the strength of the alcohol they are consuming.“This is not the fi rst time Mr Patel has been found selling
illegal products, so we have taken the necessary steps to prevent him from doing this again. Not only was he taking risks with his customers’ health, he was breaching Trade Marks and Food Safety controls in addition to the avoidance of Excise duty.”Illicit, or illegal alcohol, is either alcohol that is produced in unlicensed distilleries or people’s homes using replica bottles labelled as a genuine product or is genuine branded alcohol that has avoided paying UK taxes and duty either by
being stolen and bought in bulk or buying illegally from a ware-house where the products are intended solely for export.Sheffi eld City Council’s crack-down on illegal alcohol has been ongoing since 2011 and this case is yet another example of the great work – which saw them nominated for a national award in June last year – that Trading Standards and the licencing committee are doing.

GuideWeddingWinter weddings can be utterly magical and romantic, but there are a few inevitable issues that go hand in hand with weddings held during the winter months. If you're having a winter wedding, don't panic. All these problems are really small and totally avoidable with some prep beforehand. Here are some simple tips and tricks to ensure your winter wedding goes off without a hitch.
Winter wedding tips
• Remember it will be cold and accessories will be important to keep warm. A faux fur stole, a veil, a cape or a chic cardie are all good options.
• For the guys you can't get more wintery than velvet, plus it's a nice thick fabric which should keep you warm.
• Chapped lips are inevitable come winter. Keep your lips moisturised in the run up to the wedding & have a chapstick in your purse on the day.
• If it's very cold you can always wear thick tights under your wedding dress (as long as it's long) - nobody will know! This goes for your bridesmaids too.
• Boots can be a stylish (and warm) bridal shoe option for winter weddings, especially if it rains.
• Don't forget your bridesmaids will be cold too! Make sure to have cover ups ready for them on the day.
• If possible have your ceremony & reception in the one venue, or venues very near to each other. This will make transport easier, in case of bad weather.
• Bad weather means bad traffi c, so give extra time for travel to your ceremony - no matter how near or far you are going.
• It will be dark quite early. Embrace it with lots of romantic candle light in both your ceremony and reception space.
• Be sure someone is in charge of taking coats at your reception and making sure they're kept safe.
• Consider making an effort to ensure your guests are kept warm and cheery once they arrive. A hot drink on arrival is a nice and simple idea.
• Go wintery with your favours. Blankets or pashminas, sparklers, cookies, mulled wine spices, candy canes or little bottles of Baileys are all cute & doable winter wedding favour options.
• It gets dark much earlier in the winter so adjust your photo schedule for more light. Taking portraits before your ceremony is often a good idea. If you're not sure how to go about this, just chat to your photographer. They should have a good idea of what will work.
• Have nice umbrellas on stand by for outdoor wedding photographs. These don't have to be fancy - simple and black can often do the job.
• If you're wearing heels, have another shoe option for your outdoor pics. You don't want to be sinking into mud or snow in your Jimmy Choos or Valentinos!
• Ice cold blue hands are not a good look in winter wedding pictures. This is where hand warmers come in.

Attendance Allowance can be paid to older relatives who need help with day-to-day living. We work through the application process to make a time-consuming task a little easier.
What is Attendance Allowance?Attendance Allowance is a payment that the government provides to someone who needs help with personal care because they’re physically or mentally disabled and they are 65 or older. There are two different weekly rates - £55.10 or £82.30 – according to the level of disability.
What are the qualifying disabilities?There are guidelines on qualifying disabilities on the website www.gov.uk. If your friend or relative has a physical disability, including sensory disabilities, and/or a mental disability that means they need help caring for themselves for their own safety or the safety of others, then it’s worth applying.
How do you apply?The form AA1A from www.gov.uk can be fi lled in online or printed off and fi lled in with ink. Either way it has to be posted back with supporting documentation. Be warned that it’s over 30 pages long and some questions are quite challenging!
When do you apply?An applicant will normally need to have required care for a minimum of six months although you can make a claim earlier. It’s wise to get the application in as quickly as possible. Payment is likely to be made only from the date of the application or the date you call the enquiry line if you return the claim within 6 weeks.
Who can apply?The form is addressed to the person who will receive the allowance. However, someone else can complete the application in certain circumstances, such as having Power of Attorney. You can also apply

Members of:
of another’s behalf if they are too ill or disabled to do it for themselves, or if you are in the process of becoming a legal representative.
What does the form want?Mostly there are pages of questions about the level of help required around day-to-day living, recent falls, professional help received, care currently being provided, level of supervision required and help needed at night as well as during the day. There’s a section to fi ll in if the applicant is currently in a hospital or care home.You’re also asked for a statement from someone who knows the applicant (not the person completing it on their behalf) asking how often they see the person and what their disabilities are. There are some notes with the form to help with fi lling it in though you may have to actually download the form rather than using it online to access them.
How long does it take to process?The web site says expect 40 days. It can be faster if the case is clear cut with supporting evidence.
AssessmentYou or your relative might get a letter saying they need to attend an assessment to check their eligibility. The letter should explain why and where they should go and what they need to take.

We pay a visit to Sheffi eld’s newest restaurants, Cluck. Which can be found at the services area just off the Parkway and Prince of Wales Road (the former Little Chef).
Words by Andrea Barton-Lawrence
My fi rst visit to Cluck gave a good impression as we pulled in along a well-lit driveway, very welcome on a grey January day!We found ourselves inside a spacious restaurant with great natural lighting and a choice of normal table seating or booths.
We were able to relax with a drink from the impressive bar, stocked with a range of draught and bottled beers and ciders, with the expected selection of wines, sprits and soft drinks to cater for any choice.We were able to choose from an extensive menu, complemented by a good range on the Specials Board, and my attention was immediately drawn to the Henderson’s Relish Chicken Wings! My friends chose the Cajun Spiced Wings, and we were presented with a selection of dips alongside them. We were impressed by the careful cooking, which ensured the meat was perfect – juicy and falling off the bone – a great start to the meal.My choice for main course was the Chicken & Bacon Stack – a lovely moist chicken breast topped by a thick and tasty bacon steak, smothered in a tangy barbecue sauce and topped with melted cheese – very tasty and certainly a generous portion! This however looked like a snack in comparison to my friend’s Mega Mixed Grill – a huge portion of perfectly grilled meats fi nished off with a topping of eggs, sausage and mushrooms – defi nitely not one for the lighter appetite! The third guest chose Quack’s Famous Chicken & Red Onion Pie – thick chicken chunks and beautiful light pastry combined to create a fairly unusual
REAL MEALS & DEALS AT SHEFFIELD’S NEWEST RESTAURANT
but extremely fl avoursome dish.All the main courses come with unlimited home-made chips, and fantastic crunchy onion rings – in fact they were so good we nibbled our way through two portions!There was an impressive offering of desserts, but we simply didn’t have room for any more and so we passed on a third course.The menu also offers a variety to suit every taste – curries, salads, snacks and a constantly-changing selection of daily specials.Also on offer are Sunday lunches with a choice of roast beef and chicken.And of course don’t forget – if you don’t fancy the restaurant, the drive-through offers the opportunity to order all the food specially packed for take-away, without having to leave your car! Cluck is open Monday-Friday 6.30am – 11pm, Saturday & Sunday 7am – 11pm and the Drive-Through opens from 7am – 9pm daily.

Floyd Mayweather Jr, one of the greatest boxers of all time, is set to appear at Sheffi eld City Hall on Sunday 7th February 2016 to give Yorkshire boxing fans an insight into his life and career.In An Evening with Floyd Mayweather Jr, part of his United Kingdom Victory Tour, the recently retired fi ghter will be interviewed by Sky Sports boxing pundit and former world champion, Sheffi eld’s own Johnny Nelson. The audience will then have the opportunity to put their own questions forward in a Q&A session. Mayweather retired undefeated from professional boxing last year, having achieved a record of 49-0 over the course of a glittering career. Hailed as not just the best pound-for-pound fi ghter of his generation but one of the all-time greats, Mayweather has earned twelve world title belts across fi ve different weight divisions.The son of welterweight contender Floyd Mayweather Sr, Mayweather Jr showed prodigious talent in the ring from a young age despite a troubled childhood. He won national Golden Gloves championships in 1993, 1994 and 1996, going on to represent the United States of America at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, where he earned a bronze medal after a controversial decision ruled him out of the gold medal fi ght.Mayweather has gone on to take part in some of the biggest fi ghts in history,
Well known Bowie afi cionado Joe Elliott has given a statement on the news of David Bowie’s tragic death.Joe was a huge fan of Bowie - he had a Bowie/Mick Ronson tribute act The Cybernauts On Monday Joe said:“I heard the news today oh boy .... And I can’t believe what I’ve heard .... David Bowie is dead. He’s been a massive part of my life since I fi rst heard Starman in 1972. So many of us came in at that moment, myself, Bono, Boy George, Morrissey, Gary Kemp, Jim Kerr, Brett Anderson, Pete Murphy, Gary Numan, millions of fans, all very different from each other but all with one thing in common, the belief that a true rock & roll
generating well over a billion dollars of pay-per-view revenue throughout his career. His much anticipated bout against Manny Pacquiao in May 2015 remains the most lucrative in the history of professional boxing, with the pay-per-view being purchased 4.6 million times. His appearance at Sheffi eld City Hall promises to be a memorable evening, providing a rare glimpse into the life of one of sport’s most prolifi c champions.
Tickets for An Evening with Floyd Mayweather Jr: United Kingdom Victory Tour (subject to booking fees) at Sheffi eld City Hall are available online through at www.sheffi eldcityhall.co.uk through the ticket hotline on 0114 2 789 789 and in person at the Sheffi eld City Hall Box Offi ce.
alien had landed on earth & he was ours. I own every record he ever made, he was plastered all over my bedroom wall as a kid, he was my very fi rst bootleg, his CDs take up 2 whole shelves in my collection. I have personally recorded over 25 of his songs either on my own, with Leppard or with the Cybernauts. I met him 2 or 3 times & always found him charming & engaging. It is said, never meet your heroes, they will let you down. Bulls**t. He was open, funny, a good listener !! & when myself & Phil joined David on stage with Queen, Mick Ronson & Ian Hunter at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Gig in 1992 it became one of the most memorable musical moments of my life. I can’t believe he’s gone. A huge whole has opened up in my heart & it feels like my
youth has been further ripped away from me. At least I have a lifetime of his music to comfort me, as we all have, as he left behind one hell of a legacy. The Starman waiting in the sky waits no longer. Rest in Peace David Bowie and thank you for giving us believers something to believe in.”

SHEFFIELD CHEERS FOR BEER WEEK! 2016 sees SIBA’s BeerX festival return to Sheffi eld for the fourth year running. Which is something that beer lover Jules Gray thinks is worth celebrating – so much so that she's decided to continue the annual event - Sheffi eld Beer Week - to coincide with the national event again in 2016.
With around 5,000 people visiting the city for BeerX, organiser Jules sees Sheffi eld Beer Week (14-20 March) as a real opportunity to show off the very best of our beer scene. Jules Gray, joint proprietor of Hop Hideout beer shop on Abbeydale Road, said: “I was really pleased with the response that we had to Sheffi eld Beer Week last year, so much so, that it was obviously the right thing to continue with the annual event. This year breweries Abbeydale, True North Brew Co and
Thornbridge have already agreed to host events and are launching new beers during the week!"Sheffi eld Beer Week runs from 14 to 20th March. Head to www.sheffi eldbeerweek.co.uk/events/ for details of events taking place, events continued to be added weekly.
If you’re a bar or pub and interested in holding an event, contact Sheffi eld Beer Week at sheffi [email protected] for more information.

posted a statement saying “we are deeply saddened by the loss of David Bowie. It was an honour and a privilege to release his music into the world.” Ringo Star posted on twitter “God bless David Bowie, peace and love to all his family,” along with rock group ACDC who posted the hashtag “RIPDavid-Bowie he was a true legend.” Annie Lennox also joined the twitter conversation by posting “no one exists forever and it seems our elegant gentleman was well aware that his last mortal chapter was about to reach it’s conclusion. Dark Star was his parting gift.” Paul Mcartney also paid his tributes to Bowie by posting “very sad news to wake up to on this rain-ing morning. David was a great star and I treasure the moments we had together.”David Bowie leaves a legacy behind of hugely infl u-ential music, fashion and creativity along with the mantra that ‘you can be whoever you want to be…never conform to anything and always try out new things.’ We will leave you with his own words as a memory to the legend that was, David Bowie.
“The truth is of course is that there is no journey. We are arriving and departing all at the same time.”
A TRIBUTE TO DAVID BOWIE
Syd Barrett - The Madcap Laughs
Syd Barrett; the former lead singer, lead guitarist and songwriter for Pink Floyd, released his psychedelic debut solo album, The Madcap Laughs in 1970. Barrett wasn’t the easiest artist to work with, which explains why it took a year and fi ve producers to fi nally get the album recorded.With Barrett, it’s all about the lyrics and on The Madcap Laughs he expresses a spectrum of moods with typically incredible imagery that give us a glimpse into his state of mind at the time. There’s some pretty positive songs; Love You is fun and bouncy with a nursery rhyme feel to it. Here We Go is a catchy song with a great melody and the affectionately delivered line, ‘A big band is better than you.’There’s pain and despair too, no more so as on Dark Globe, with the heart-breaking poignant lyric ‘Won’t you miss me? Wouldn’t you miss me at all?’ Golden Hair is a haunting piece in line with what Barrett produced for Pink Floyd on Piper At The Gates Of Dawn. The highlight of the record is the beautifully vivid Octopus, but the most interesting song is probably If It’s In You: The track features conversation with Barrett; it’s just like an out-take that could have been cut out but by leaving it in, a sense of realism is created that brings the listener right into the studio.It’s a remarkable album, the kind of which are a rarity, that will always stand alone as a unique part of music history. Barrett turned to living a reclusive life in 1978 and was rarely seen in public. He died in 2006; a rock and roll icon of almost mythical stature, whose potential was sadly never realised.
Looking back at some of Rock’s

LIVE REVIEW: H.I.M.H.I.M.Nottingham Rock CityWords & Pic by Roy Goodall
ARGUABLEY to the paying public at large Finn-ish band H.I.M. are a one man fi ghting machine with front man and spokesperson Ville Valo taking centre stage throughout this Nottingham show. The other talented members seem nothing but a side issue, which is sad as I certainly felt they more than made up the whole package, each one of them playing their hearts out.Opening with Buried Alive By Love, Poison and The Kiss Of Dawn, one of the more stronger tracks off recent album Venus Doom, the crowd lapped up this special show which was to mark the 35th anniver-sary of Rock City as a live and thriving rock venue. Something to be proud of me thinks.Anyway, we had twenty two songs on this exclusive evening and with H.I.M. having not played these shores in a while the place was naturally buzzing with excitement. Not being an ardent fan, I’m more an admirer, there were lots of songs I didn’t know
which was fi ne though it has to be said that the vocal mix was very weak. At times it was hard to decipher Ville’s voice which I guess adds to the doom tag that the band at times has. Added to this was the light show which again I felt could have been better. Maybe at a theatre show the whole production would have been grander. That said, you really can’t beat the atmosphere of a club as the crowd went wild when Wings Of A Butterfl y and Wicked Games broke through the public address system and as song followed song, before we knew it encore time beckoned.I was expecting even greater cheers for the band’s return but after an initial spurt all went quiet, which was strange. As the band reappeared though we had more as they closed proceedings with the evening’s second cover song, Billy Idol’s hit Rebel Yell.Formed back in 1991 in Helsinki H.I.M. have been doing their stuff for close on twenty fi ve years now and have an extensive back catalogue of work. My only worry is that it all seems like a solo pilgrimage rather than a full-blown gang project.

By Kt Evans
The 11th January 2016 was an exceptionally dif-fi cult day for music lovers across the world when it was announced that legendary musician David Bowie had lost his fi ght with cancer after only eighteen months. Considered an innovator within popular music, notably throughout the 1970s, Bowie’s legacy will live on through his powerful repertoire to include “Live On Mars,” “Rebel Rebel” and “Heroes.”David Bowie was without a doubt one of the fi nest exports ever to emerge out of the UK. Born in raised in Brixton, South London on 8th January 1947, the star had released a staggering twenty six albums, with his latest “Black Star,” released four days before his tragic death. Starting off his career as a mime artist, Bowie entered the music industry with his debut hit, “Space Oddity” which was released in 1969. In the early 1970s, he re-emerged as a glam rock pioneer under the stage name of “Ziggy Stardust,” which saw the legend transform into an alternative sensation. A string of successful hits in the USA followed on, to include “Fame” alongside the massive single “Heroes” in 1979. Bowie most certainly wasn’t afraid of the limelight and experi-mented with unique music styles to include an album solely dedicated to instrumental along with hinting at jazz and jungle infl uences.David Bowie was also touched with massive success within the fi lm industry. His acting roles include the alternative character in “The Man Who Fell to Earth” in 1976, along with roles in “Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence” in 1983, The gobin king Jareth in Laby-rinth in 1986, Pontius Pilate in Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ in 1988 and Nikole Tesla in The Prestige in 2006. However, this cannot be matched by the ridiculous amounts of success Bowie received within his musical career. Selling an estimated 140 million records worldwide, the Lon-doner was placed at number 29 in the BBC’s 2002 poll of the 100 Greatest Britons of all time. He was also awarded nine platinum album certifi cates, eleven gold and eight silver, and in the US, fi ve platinum and seven golden album certifi cates. Not to mention the fact that in 1996, David Bowie was also introduced into the legendary Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.Reaction to the death of David Bowie has been seen all over the world, with celebrities, musicians and publications across the globe all post-ing their respects for the performer. Speaking on her twitter page, Madonna wrote “David Bowie changed the course of my life forever…he was so chic and beautiful and elegant…Thank you David Bowie, I owe you a lot. The world will miss you.”Columbia Records, David Bowie’s record label

TOP TIPS ON DRIVING IN WINTER WEATHERFrom Mark Shaw Manager Driver Training of FedEx UK
Blessed with a moderate climate, the UK doesn’t experience extreme winter weather as often as some countries, but when the snow and ice does hit, the consequences can be severe. During the winter months, it’s not always possible to postpone journeys, with millions of drivers still needing to use Britain’s roads for professional or personal reasons.So as a Qualifi ed ‘Advanced’ Driver and LGV driver with 38 years’ experience driving on all kinds of roads, in all kinds of conditions, I wanted to share my top tips for safe driving in poor weather.
Preparing for your journeyKeep essential items in your vehicle. Ice scrapers are helpful when leaving in the morning and a folding shovel, kept in the vehicle, can be useful for clearing a path through deep snow. Don’t forget your gloves, warm clothing/blankets, snacks and a safety triangle.Plan your journey. Try to use main roads wherever possible as they are more likely to have been cleared and gritted. Avoid using very quiet roads wherever possible. Keep an up-to-date map in the vehicle (don’t just rely on Sat-Nav).Make sure your fuel and fl uid levels are topped up. You may need to make a longer journey than originally planned due to road closures or traffi c congestion.Charge your mobile phone and keep a spare charger in the car. This will allow you to call for help in an emergency. If you are travelling alone on a long journey, let someone know your ETA so they can alert the emergency services if you do not arrive.Consider winter tyres. If you live in an isolated area known for bad weather conditions, winter tyres could be a good investment or you might consider hiring or buying snow chains. Regular Tyres should be at the correct pressure and have good all round tread depth.Keep windscreens and all windows clean and clear. You should also remember to fi ll up the windscreen fl uid bottle with screen wash, to avoid freezing.Use your heater system or air conditioning to demist the windscreen. This will lessen the amount of condensation inside the vehicle.Make sure all lights and number plates are free from snow/Ice. This should be done on the front and the back, it’s a legal requirement. If a light stops working, replace them as soon as you can. Carry out a walk-round check of your vehicle before you set off on your journey.
While drivingChange your driving habits. Accelerate/brake gently, avoiding high revs, and consider setting off in a higher gear to avoid wheel spin.Keep well back from other vehicles. Remember that stopping distances can increase ten-fold in icy conditions. You should therefore drive accordingly and watch your speed. Keep a safe distance from the car in front and avoid sudden steering movements. It is also important to always keep an eye on the other cars and remember to use all your mirrors.Use dipped headlights or fog lights in reduced visibility. This alerts other drivers to your presence, but ensure you turn them off if visibility is above 100 metres.Keep an eye on both the weather and the temperature. When temperatures drop to around zero, keep a close eye on the road. If it looks wet, then it’s probably icy. Always be mindful about the possibility of black ice.Try to drive so that you don’t need your brakes. When the roads are icy, using your brakes can do more harm than good. Give yourself plenty of time to slow down, moving down the gear box gradually/smoothly to reduce speed in a controlled way.
ROAD OFFENDERS ESCAPE DRIVING BANSFive drivers with more than 37 points on their licences have escaped driving bans because of the "exceptional hardship" it would have caused them.Figures released by the Driving and Vehicle Licensing Agency following a Freedom of Information request by the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) show one of the motorists, a provisional licence holder from Oxford, amassed a grand total of 51 points.People who receive 12 or more points on
their licence within three years are usually disqualifi ed from driving, although judges are allowed to show leniency if it is thought that a ban - six months in the case of a fi rst disqualifi cation - would have an exceptional impact on their life.The driver with 51 points was caught speeding three times in a 30mph zone and has seven offences of not providing their details when requested by the authorities.Another from Basildon accumulated 42 points, also for failing to supply driver details. They had previously held points for speeding, including one incident where they were clocked travelling at 109mph.One from Burnley escaped a ban despite racking up 38 points after being caught breaking the limit in 30mph zones a total of 10 times.The IAM study also found that a dozen people have been able to accumulate more than 28 points.Chief executive Sarah Sillars warns that drivers may believe motoring laws are "ineffective or unimportant" if persistent offenders are not disqualifi ed.She wants to see a "joined-up approach to the judicial process", rather than having individual courts making decisions on prosecutions, something which she claims can lead to inconsistencies and devalue the simple 12 points and you are out road safety message.

2016 started very similar to how 2015 ended for the County Senior League. All but four games fell to waterlogged pitches, following the recent heavy rain that has hit the region.
Division OneJust two league games survived the rain, and both were in Division One. Caribbean Sports had a great start to the New Year, with a big 8-2 away win over mid-table Ecclesfi eld Red Rose. The win takes Caribbean into second place, six points behind league leaders Denaby United.AFC Dronfi eld also hosted Davy FC on the all-weather pitch at Gosforth Playing Fields. Dronfi eld came out comfortable 6-1 winners.
S&HCFA Association Cup Quarter-FinalsWe reached the Association Cup Quarter-Final stage on Saturday. The County Senior league has dominated the cup this year, with all eight remaining participants calling the league their home. All four of the Quarter-Finals were all scheduled for last Saturday, but only two went ahead. New Bohemians booked their place in the Semi-Finals with a 3-2 win over Byron House at the SHU Sports Ground. Adam Smith starred for New Bohemians scoring twice.

My session this week began behind one of those drivers you could cheerfully wish evil things upon… When I’m on my way to this fi shery, twenty odd miles distant, the last thing I want is to get stuck behind this particular guy, especially in the early hours of the morning, when he, and I, are the only vehicles on the road! As I pulled out onto the main road, the Volkswagen Golf was driven by one of those drivers who constantly remains 20mph under the National Speed Limit, unnecessarily applies the brakes when travelling uphill, or on corners, or when another vehicle approaches, or for aliens (probably) and as the road to the venue offers very little opportunity for overtaking, I found the red mist rising…We arrived at a roundabout, unfortunately at the same time as vehicles from other directions, and a ‘Mexican Standoff’ ensued. My protagonist waited for approximately eleventy million cars to clear the traffi c island as the rush hour traffi c became heavier, further hampering my progress, then at another roundabout, waited for a space suffi cient for a warship to navigate the obstruction before proceeding…slowly! AHHH! YOU COULD HAVE GOT THE SPACE SHUTTLE IN THERE! Leaving the bright lights of town behind, I was forced to remain behind the VW for a number of miles as he slowed at every junction containing a waiting car to allow them onto the carriageway, fl ashing his lights to inform them of their freedom; surely he would turn off somewhere and I could resume my journey? Mile after mile, I followed my nemesis, watchful for random brake signals (and the occasional, equally random dazzling fog light, after all, it was raining) until it became apparent he too was going to the fi shery! Surely not! I could give him a piece of my mind at last, and inform him of the requirement for additional lessons! Parking next to him, I quickly unclasped the seatbelt and stepped out to confront the other driver; as the gent closed his door, his cheery ‘Good morning’ immediately disarmed me however, and I found myself grunting an identical reply as he breezed past me to claim his ticket. I mean come on, what else was I supposed to do? I was only imagining the satisfaction a machine gun in the front grill would cause… Eventually, I found a peg which wasn’t underwater; the incessant rain of the previous few days had wreaked havoc around the venue with many pegs a mass of boggy mud, and I wasn’t prepared to sit in sludge. I have fi shed this place a number of times, and know that a winter carp is a real possibility, so I
set up two rods with almost identical rigs comprising a hook pattern I discovered at the end of last season. The Vardis ‘Turndown’ hook, combined with a micro swivel on the shank, seems to confuse and confound any carp which picks it up, and results in very secure hook holds. This is baited with my favourite ‘go-anywhere’ offering, the Essential IB from Mainline Baits. I’ve found that I really can fi sh any venue with a huge amount of confi dence using this particular wafter type boilie, and it’s done very well for me since I started using it. A small pva bag of crushed Mainline Hybrid was attached, and both were fl ung into the lake, aimed at a channel I knew passed though the peg. I’d set up with the wind at my back as the rain continued to slant down, and, as is usual, as soon as I positioned everything, the wind changed direction and drove the rain under the brolly making things very uncomfortable indeed…I lasted around four hours before my extremities started to fail, and my fi ngers slowly stiffened and turned blue, but I had caught. A single bleep on the receiver was enough for me to lift the rod, and a chubby double fi gure common came lazily to the net for a quick photograph, before it was returned to the murky (and rising) depths. I’d only witnessed one other fi sh being caught, and several anglers had seen sense and packed up before me, but it didn’t matter; I’d got my fi rst carp of the season in the bag, justifi ed the journey, and had enough for my weekly scribblings. I returned to the van, loaded the soaking tackle, slammed the doors, and climbed into the cab before selecting ‘proper hot’ on the heater dial. As my fi ngers thawed, and the screen cleared, I was surprised to watch a big green brolly spin past in the wind…closely followed by the sodden VW driver…. maybe there is a God after all…

Rotherham United manager Neil Redfearn admitted that his side need to be more ruthless in front of goal after a narrow defeat to Leeds United in the FA Cup.The Millers exited the competition after a wonder strike from Mustapha Carayol and a late second from Souleymane Doukara in a close encounter in West Yorkshire.Despite matching the hosts for long periods, the Millers couldn’t fi nd a way through, but boss Redfearn admitted he was pleased with his side’s performance despite the result.“The fi rst goal probably came in Leeds’ best spell in the fi rst half,” Redfearn said after the game.“They had 10 minutes just before half time but up until then I would say we were probably the better of the two sides if I’m honest. We didn’t really create enough in that spell but we were the better footballing side.“The fi rst goal is a fantastic strike and sometimes you just have to hold your hands up. We got back on top again and were in the ascendency for most of the second half and I’m just a little bit disappointed we didn’t create more in front of goal.“As a performance I’m pleased with it. We’ve come to Leeds twice now and there’s been nothing between the sides and to compete and match them in two games against a big club is good for us. It’s disappointing with the result but we have to move on now because we have a big game with Brighton on Tuesday night.
With over 13,000 fans watching, it was an electric atmosphere at the Keepmoat right from the off. Rovers didn’t seem phased by Premier League opposition and started the game with a real spring in their step.Cedric Evina was the fi rst to test Jokob Haugaard in the Stoke goal as he used his pace to drive down the left before striking at goal but the Stoke keeper made the save.It was the home side who threatened again. More good work from Evina set up Andy Williams whose header forced Haugaard into another save.Against the run of play the Premier League side took the lead through Peter Crouch. Joselu used his skill to beat Aaron Taylor-Sinclair, before whipping
CAIRNS CHECKS IN WITH MILLERSRotherham United have completed the signing of goalkeeper Alex Cairns on a deal until the end of the season.The former Leeds United Academy stopper is the third signing during the January transfer window following the arrival of defenders Shay Facey and Aïmen Belaïd.The Doncaster-born custodian made one senior appearance whilst at Elland Road, and also enjoyed loan spells at Barrow and Stalybridge Celtic.“I am delighted to be here,” Cairns told www.themillers.co.uk“I have enjoyed training with the boys today and I am really pleased to get started. “There is a good set of lads here in the dressing room and they have made me feel really welcome. “I know Paul Green from my time at Leeds and one or two others, so that has made for an easy transition.”Cairns, who last represented Chesterfi eld, is well known to Rotherham boss Neil
REDFEARN TAKES POSITIVES
ROVERS GOOD PERFORMANCE NOT ENOUGH AGAINST PREMIERSHIP STOKE
“We just lacked the fi nal ball and that bit of quality. I have to be pleased with the application, the way we worked and how we closed down. “The little mistakes are disappointing because what it does is undo our good work, and 2-0 fl attered Leeds a little bit today, although I probably thought that they deserved to go through.”Redfearn gave a debut to central defender Aïmen Belaïd after he completed his switch from Levski Sofi a yesterday, and he was pleased with the Tunisian international’s contribution.“I thought he did well, particularly in the fi rst half,” Redfearn continued. “He has got pace, you can see that and he plays out of trouble and he used the ball well. He intercepted things and stepped in and won his headers, he is a naturally left footed centre back and I thought he played well.“It gives Broady that chance now to step in and attack things and that is important. I thought the whole of the back four played well, we limited them to fl urries around the box. They had one or two skirmishes in the fi rst half but didn’t really create anything clear cut.“The more that you can settle your 11 down and have it balanced the better, because people start getting used to one and another’s games and how each other play. The best sides play together, and it is consistent. We have to try and be consistent now in our run in until the end of the season.”
AIMEN BELAÏD JOINS THE MILLERSRotherham United have completed the signing of Tunisian international Aïmen Belaïd from Bulgarian side Levski Sofi a.The central defender has signed a two-and-a-half year deal with the Millers and becomes the second arrival during the January transfer window following the loan signing of Shay Facey from Manchester City.The Paris-born defender has made his name in Bulgaria after spells with Lokomotiv Plovdiv and Levski Sofi a, making over 50 appearances for the latter.“Aïmen is certainly a talented individual,” Rotherham United manager Neil Redfearn told www.themillers.co.uk“He has a good pedigree, after playing for one or two clubs across Europe, and he also has fantastic athleticism which is something that will help us. “He is technically a very good footballer, he is good on the ball and he can play at centre-back, left-back and in midfi eld.“He will add to some really strong competition for the fi rst-team and he is someone who comes in at a time when we need strengthening.”The 27-year-old has experience of playing right across Europe after spells in Czech Republic, France and Bulgaria.
in a wicked ball across the box for Croush to neatly fl ick past Thorsten Stuckmann.Despite going a goal down Rovers didn’t lose their spark. Haugaard was called into action twice in quick succession after shots from Williams and Middleton.After being behind for just ten minutes the home side did fi nd the equaliser they deserved and it was Nathan Tyson who’s name was on the scoresheet.Luke McCullough carried the ball almost half the pitch, skipping past a number of defenders on the way. Squaring the ball into Tyson Haugaard made a brilliant save but the Rovers striker was there to score at the second attempt.
Stoke looked rattled as Rovers continued to pressure but the referee blew for half time and the teams went in level.Darren Ferguson’s side started the second half as they fi nished the fi rst and had a real energy in their football.Conor Grant who had controlled the midfi eld brilliantly went inches away from putting Rovers ahead as Paul Keegan played the ball into him, shooting low his shot clipped the post and went wide.Minutes later 9,000 Rovers fans were appealing for a penalty as Grant played a deadly ball across goal. With Craig Alcock waiting to tap in at the back post a clear push in the back saw him fall to the ground. Much to everyone’s disbelief, the referee waved play on.
Mark Hughes side found their feet however. Crouch went close for his second but missed a tap in from two yards, before Diouf also pressured the defence.Jonathan Walters put the visitors ahead as he picked up the ball and tried his luck from 30 yards. With Stuckmann at full stretch, the Rovers keeper could do nothing about it as it rocketed into the top corner, a stunning strike.Again, Rovers weren’t beaten. Craig Alcock went very close as a corner fell to him on the edge of the area before he fi red at goal.With ten minutes to play Rovers went agonisingly close again. Substitute Richard Chaplow’s cross was met by Andy Butler in the box, beating the
Stoke man to it his header bounced back off the cross bar.Tyson was the next to get the fans on the edge of their seat as Gary MacKenzie headed down for Tyson to tap home from 6 yards but he scooped his effort over the bar.Throwing absolutely everything at it Rovers went so close again in stoppage time. As the ball came into the box at pace, Butler put his body on the line and threw himself at it but somehow went over the bar from 4 yards.Despite their hard work Rovers couldn’t fi nd the equaliser they deserved to earn them a replay at the Britannia Stadium and it was Stoke who made it through to the fourth round.
Redfearn from his time as Academy manager at Thorpe Arch, and the 23-year-old revealed he was thrilled to be linking up once again with his old mentor.“He has taught me everything I know so I am really pleased to be joining up with him again,” Cairns added.“He gave me a chance at Leeds and guided me through the many different aspects of being a footballer, so for me it is the perfect scenario to be working under him again.“I want to push as high as I possibly can, just like every other player, and to be back playing for a Championship club again is massive for me.”Cairns admitted he has enjoyed his early training sessions with the Millers, and he now competes with senior goalkeepers Lee Camp and Adam Collin for a place between the sticks.“I have had a couple of sessions with them (Camp and Collin) already and they are both great goalkeepers,” he continued.“I am fortunate to be working alongside two experienced ‘keepers, and I am sure I will learn loads from training with them.”

BLADES NEWS2015/16
2015/16HEARTBREAK FOR BLADES WITH INJURY TIME EXIT GAFFER’S REACTION
Nigel Adkins was bursting with pride in the aftermath of Saturday’s Emirates FA Cup tie against Manchester United at Old Trafford, despite his side exiting the competition in the cruellest of circumstances.Wayne Rooney’s penalty deep into stoppage-time proved to be the game’s decisive moment, after Dean Hammond was adjudged to have fouled Memphis, but that should take nothing away from what was a fantastic gutsy display from the Blades.The Gaffer remarked: “Manchester United showed us the utmost respect with the team they fi elded and we wanted to be positive to start with.“We knew it would be tough, it was, but we did ever so well. We defended excellently, we were resolute, we had a grit and desire about ourselves and we threw our bodies on the line on numerous occasions.“We were organised, disciplined and the players worked their socks off, they gave it a real go as they have done in every game in recent weeks and we were backed by over 8,000 supporters who be were so noisy it was unbelievable.“Things are coming together at this Club, we can see clear signs of it now, from the players
The Blades are cruelly knocked out of the FA Cup, despite an excellent display at Old Trafford on Saturday evening.England captain Wayne Rooney, with his only notable contribution of the game nets the winning goal from the penalty spot, after Dean Hammond fouled Memphis deep into stoppage-time, following a gritty display the visitors as they worked tirelessly to deny the Premier League giants.For the third round tie against the Red Devils at Old Trafford, boss Adkins named an changed starting XI from the league clash against Peterborough United, although Matt Done was named amongst the substitutes having overcome a hamstring problem. For the home side, Louis van Gaal named a strong side, which included the likes of Rooney, Schweinsteiger, Fellaini, Mata and Martial.Kicking towards the Stretford End, looking to beat Premiership
opposition for the third consecutive season at the third round stage, the Blades started brightly with the away support in full voice. The Blades were defending resolutely at one end, whilst looking to break quickly at the other, McEveley’s pass just evading the run of the marauding Woolford.The home side’s fi rst effort on was wildly off target from Rooney, but moments later he got in behind United’s defence from a Darmian pass and McEveley had to race back to snuff out the danger. Meanwhile, for the Blades, Coutts got the better of Fellaini on the right wing and forced Darmian into conceding a corner at the back post.As the raining continued to pour down, the visitors were continuing to frustrate their more illustrious hosts as the game went past the half hour mark, although the Blades had two scares in quick succession. Firstly, Long was out smartly to deny Rooney, whilst Old Trafford appealed in vain for a penalty as McEveley
challenged the advancing Schweinsteiger in the box.A Rooney free-kick was blocked prior to three minutes added time being signalled, as Brayford stung the palms of De Gea at the other end. The last action of the fi rst period came from another set-piece after Coutts fouled Martial, but Blind fi red harmlessly over the bar from Rooney’s cutback.The second-half began with the rain having stopped and the Blades kicking towards the 8,500 Unitedites who continued to be in full voice. Still United defended gamely and van Gaal made a double change on the hour with Memphis and Lingard replacing Mata and Herrera, whilst Flynn took the place of Sharp moments later.The fi rst shot in anger of the second-half, much to delight of a frustrated home crowd, saw Memphis fi re wide having cut inside from the left. At the other end, Basham forced De Gea into a save after a power run through the middle.
The introduction of Memphis had visibly given the home side and its supporters a lift, but still the Blades defended as a unit. McEveley limped out of the action and was replaced by Reed, with Woolford dropping into left-back.The Red Devils were clearly nervy as the clocked ticked down and it showed as Smalling missed his kick completely with the goal at his mercy after Brayford had put his body on the line to deny Martial.In the 93rd minute, just when it looked like a replay was on the cards, it was heartbreak for the Blades as Manchester United snatched what proved to be the winner from the penalty spot.Memphis got the better of Brayford on the left and it was Hammond who was adjudged to have caught the Dutchman as weaved his way into the area. ROONEY stepped up from 12 yards and sent Long the wrong the way to cruelly send the Blades out of the cup.
right through to the supporters, everyone is united together.“What was such a shame is we lost the tie to a penalty in the 93rd minute, from a challenge that was just an honest endeavour to try and keep the ball out of our net.”Adkins added: “We felt comfortable defensively for long periods so to lose the game like we did hurts especially having come to Old Trafford and from very early on be well in the tie and look like taking them back to Bramall Lane for a replay.“We would have been ecstatic with a win or a draw, even more so having played against arguably against Manchester United’s strongest possible side.“Moving forward we have to take a lot of heart from this performance, the players were excellent, the fans were too and now we really have to kick on.”

BANNAN STRIKE VOTED FA CUP GOAL OF THE ROUNDBarry Bannan has won the Emirates FA Cup goal of the third round after his superb strike against Fulham.The Scottish international’s sweetly struck shot from 25-yards received 47% of the vote on the Emirates FA Cup offi cial Twitter account, edging out Leeds winger Mustapha Carayol.
OWLS TO FACE SHREWSIN CUPSheffi eld Wednesday will battle Shrewsbury Town at New Meadow in the fourth round of the Emirates FA Cup.The Owls were drawn away against the League One strugglers and the tie will take place
Wednesday posted their third win of the season against Fulham, this time in the FA Cup to advance to round four.Having overcome the Cottagers twice in the Championship – and only last week in the capital – the Owls made it three from three with a 2-1 success.Barry Bannan opened the scoring with a thunderbolt just before half time only for the visitors to reply in an instant through Moussa Dembele.But Atdhe Nuhiu came off the bench to hit the winner in the second half to ensure Wednesday go into the fourth round draw.The Owls carried on where they left off at Craven Cottage last Saturday and took the game to Fulham, with Glenn Loovens almost netting his maiden goal for the club early doors.Kieran Lee jinked past two defenders only to
be thwarted by Andy Lonergan and Loovens sliced the rebound wide.A timely intervention from Shaun Hutchinson then prevented Lucas Joao from connecting with a Modou Sougou feed before desperate defending kept out the latter at the near post.But with the cup clash seemingly heading into the interval goalless, the tie exploded into life with two goals in a minute.First, on 43 minutes, Bannan executed a perfect hit from 25 yards that positively fl ew past Lonergan and into the top corner.But Fulham caught Wednesday cold straight from the restart and substitute Dembele crashed home from close range to haul the visitors back on terms.And the Londoners then promptly came out of the traps apace for the second period – and should have doubled their tally on 47 minutes.
Ashley Richards delivered a perfect ball on to the head of Dembele but Joe Wildsmith made a superb point-blank save to deny the striker a double.Moments later, Jamie O’Hara saw a fi erce shot from 12 yards bravely blocked by Daniel Pudil as Fulhsm saw another chance go begging.And it was the same scenario again on 56 minutes when Tom Cairney found Alex Kacaniklic but the Swedish international got the ball tangled at his feet and the opportunity was gone.And the Owls duly made Fulham pay on 73
minutes when substitute Nuhiu calmly volleyed past Lonergan to restore the lead.A three-man build-up ended invitingly for the big man, who made no mistake on the angle in front of the Kop.With the game stretched for the closing stages, Joao could have put the tie beyond doubt but sidefooted wide from a Jeremy Helan pass.Fulham pressed for a second equaliser towards the whistle and Sakari Mattila drilled narrowly over from 25 yards, which was the Londoners’ last chance of note.
GOALS FROM ALL ANGLESThe goals have been fl ying in for Wednesday in stunning fashion of late and skipper Glenn Loovens has hailed his side’s ability to score from all angles.For three successive
The accolade comes just a week after fellow Scot Ross Wallace was awarded both the Sky Bet Championship and Sky Sports News HQ goal of the weekend for his sensational effort at Craven Cottage.Bannan’s goal against the Whites on Saturday was his second of the season in all competitions, having opened his account in a Wednesday shirt last December in our 2-2 draw away at Cardiff City.Wednesday secured a safe passage to the fourth round of the FA Cup after Atdhe Nuhiu’s strike separated the sides in the 2-1 victory, registering their third win over Fulham in the 2015/16 campaign.
between 29 January and 1 February.Wednesday defeated Fulham in third round while Shrewsbury reached the fourth round stage by overcoming Gainsborough, Grimsby and Cardiff.The last time the two sides met was back in 1987 in the League Cup when a September 1-1 draw at Gay Meadow was followed by a 2-1 Owls win at Hillsborough two weeks later.
weekends, goals from Fernando Forestieri, Ross Wallace and Barry Bannan were all awarded the Goal of the Weekend.And while the spectaculars continue to fl y in, Loovens says it is making for a great atmosphere in the dressing room.He said: “I think we are going for all the top fi ve in the Goal of the Season running at the moment!“I think it’s great because we can score from every angle, from scrappy ones in the box to 25-yarders!“It’s great to have that in your team.“You always want to help the team as much as you can by chipping in with goals but at the moment they don’t need my help!“We have plenty of goals in our team but that is one part of my game I need to work on to add goals myself.”
