AMIR KHAN UNANIMOUSLY BEATS DEVON ALEXANDER

By Ayyaz Malik

British Asian fighter Amir Khan defeated American fighter Devon Alexander with a unanimous points decision in Las Vegas to defend his WBC Silver welterweight title. The Bolton born fighter took on his 27 year old opponent in the ‘gambling capital of the world’, and Alexander had no answer to the fast tempo that Khan was boxing at.

images-55In fact Alexander only offered anything of real note in the eighth round, with a series of hooks – but Khan was never really troubled in this one and managed to re-establish his control as all three judges scored this one in the British fighters favour.

The judges scored the fight 119-109 ,118-110, and 120-108 at the MGM Grand. An impressive achievement by the 28 year old Khan who’s opponent could boast about winning titles at light-welterweight and welter weight level. However On the night the fighter from St Louis had no answer to the accuracy of his slightly older opponent.

Amir Khan who has spoken of his desire to box Floyd Mayweather, who many might argue is one of the sports greats, did so again after the victory over Devon Alexander. Although it would be good for British boxing fans, Floyd Mayweather himself has talked up the possibility of fighting Manny Pacquiao before – but nothing has materialised. Boxing fans will no doubt be hoping that will change.

As for a potential fight with Amir Khan I personally feel this won’t be in the immediate future – but if khan keeps beating opponents as impressively as he did against Devon Alexander, then it will be more difficult for Mayweather to ignore Khan for much longer.

CHESTERFIELD VS BRADFORD

By Ayyaz Malik

Bradford went into this mid table clash with Chesterfield on the back of an impressive victory over Dartford in the FA cup. The Bantams went into it looking to improve on their consistency in the league. After reaching the third round of the FA cup last week, Phil Parkinson’s side will no doubt be looking to move up the league table knowing their next FA cup game is in early January.

Chesterfield meanwhile went into this game against the Yorkshire side on the back of a six game unbeaten run. The Speirites beat MK Dons at stadium Mk last time out, that’s an impressive achievement considering twenty time premier league champions were hammered 4-0 when they visited stadium MK earlier this season.

The game itself was a hard fought contest which saw the home side reduced to 10 men in the 48th minute. Sam Morsy received his marching orders for appearing to catch Bradford’s Andy Halliday with his arm.

That dismissal would prove to be a turning point in the match as birthday boy Billy Clarke capped his 27th birthday off in style by scoring what proved to be the only goal with a superb strike just outside the box. Chesterfield searched in vain for an equaliser, Jay O’Shea was denied by visiting keeper Jordan Pickford – but Bradford held on for the three points.

The win for Bradford sees the Bantams just a point outside the play-off places in 10th position, as for Chesterfield they slip down to 13th position.

Two Bradford primary schools excel in national maths contest

Shirley Manor Primary Academy and Frizinghall Primary School are celebrating their success in the recent Sumdog UK National Maths Contest.

3802027Class 6 from Shirley Manor came second in the overall contest held earlier this term, while two pupils from Frizinghall Primary were awarded second and third place nationally for the highest scoring
pupils.

Maureen Neill, Headteacher at Shirley Manor Primary Academy, said: “We are very proud of all the children who took part in the Sumdog maths competition this term. It has really grabbed their imaginations and provided the opportunity to improve their mathematical skills.”

Shaun Casey, Chair of Governors at the school, said: “Sumdog has been a
great motivation for our children. They are so enthusiastic about a
Sumdog competition that it is hard to get them off the computers.”

Pauline Chilvers, Headteacher at Frizinghall Primary, said: “We are delighted that two of our children have achieved second and third place nationally. It is so rewarding to see our pupils achieving so well whilst at the same time enjoying their learning.”

One nine-year-old student from Shirley Manor summed it up, saying: “I was very proud when we won in the Bradford Sumdog competition and I think it is a great programme because the difficulty of the questions we get asked changes depending on how well we are doing.”

Coun Ralph Berry, Bradford Council’s Executive Member for Children’s Services, said: “This is great news for our young people who are excelling in maths. It is wonderful to witness the enthusiasm of the pupils who have really grasped this opportunity and demonstrated their fantastic talents. Well done to both schools.”

England vs Sri Lanka fifth one day international

England vs Sri Lanka fifth one day international

By Ayyaz Malik

England came into this fifth one day international knowing that only a win would do. The tourists who are 3-1 down really needed a win to keep this series alive as a contest. Both sides made some changes to their teams from the last game. The hosts Sri Lanka included, available again spinner Sachintra Sennaiyake who has remodelled his action since being banned by the International cricket council for his ‘illegal bowling action’, Sennayake comes in for the injured Rangana Herath.

Joe Roots brilliant hundred has kept England in this seven match series.
Joe Roots brilliant hundred has kept England in this seven match series.

As for England, they welcomed back captain Alistair Cook who sat out the last game due to a one match ban for a slow over rate, Alex Hales was the man to make way. Struggling all rounder Ben Stokes is dropped, spinner James Tredwell comes in to give England another spin option. The match itself which had to be played over two days due to the rain was a hard fought game.

The tourists won the toss and, to the surprise of many, Alistair cook put the hosts into bat. The pitch at Pelekelle was expected to be a pitch which would explain the array of spinners on show.

Sri Lanka after being put in by Cook, got off to the worst possible start. Kusal Pererra falling for yet another duck. After losing their first wicket with just three on the board it was left to the experienced pairing of Kumar Sangakarra and Tilkeratne Dilshan to rebuild the innings.

The veteran duo put on 51 for the second wicket, the second wicket stand was broken by Chris Jordan who bowled Dilshan for 35. England, despite taking two wickets quite early, were only too aware of Sri Lanka’s batting line up.

Despite the loss of the usually reliable Mahela Jayawardena for just two, which left the Sri Lankan’s in the precarious position of 59-3, the hosts managed to make a recovery of sorts as Angelo Matthews and Sangakarra put on 85 for the fourth wicket.

Captain Matthews departed for a well crafted 40, at that stage the hosts were 144-4 but- the wheels started to come of a little for Sri Lanka thereafter. The highest score after the loss of Matthews’ wicket was 26. When the Asian side lost the wicket of Sangakarra who played brilliantly for his 91, it was only Thisara Pererra who made any form of contribution. The Hyderabad Sunrisers star scored a quick fire 27 off just 16 balls, the 24 year old Pererra’s knock included four 4’s and and a six.

Sri Lanka’s batting order suffered a middle order collapsed, at one stage Sri Lanka were 173-5 – but in the end the hosts crumbled to 239 all out. Chris Woakes, despite skipper Alistair Cook using 25 of the allotted 50 overs to spin, was the star for the tourists, Woakes’ variations were causing havoc for the Sri Lankan batsmen. Warwickshire all- rounder Woakes took an impressive five wicket haul and finished the innings with 6-47.

England in reply had to wait a day to get their run chase up and running. The Sri Lankan rain meant that the Three Lions had to complete their innings yesterday (a day later than what was initially planned). The tourists who were chasing what seemed to be a modest total still needed to be aware of the threat that Sri Lanka posed with their four spinners.

Just like Sri Lanka, England lost an early wicket – Moeen Ali who is top run scorer for England in this series, was out bowled by Sennayake. The platform was set for underperforming captain Alistair Cook to take this game by the scruff of the neck after his side lost such an early wicket, that wasn’t to happen however as the England captain would be the next wicket to fall.

The tourists were 35-2 at that stage and were in serious danger of being dismissed for a low total. The remodelled action of Sennayaka proved too difficult for England’s openers, England needed to regroup and regroup they did.

A brilliant third wicket stand of 104 between James Taylor and Joe Root helped England to seize the initiative in this game. Taylor and Root brilliantly kept the scoreboard ticking with sensible batting which was attacking -but not over aggressive.

When James Taylor was caught for a well played 68, Sri Lanka must have thought they could pray on potential English nerves – a fourth wicket stand of 86 though however, effectively killed this game off as a contest.

There was time for Sri Lanka to take another couple of wickets, Ravi Boapara was caught out by Thrimanne with the winning line in sight, Eoin Morgan was caught by Thisara Pererra with two needed. After that little ‘wobble’ England duly crossed the winning line with five balls to spare, clinching a five wicket win to only trail 3-2 and gave themselves renewed hope in the seven match series

Key to this victory was Joe Root’s brilliant 104, the Yorkshire man was coolness personified as England ended up needing two days to secure the win – but a win is a win they say. The sixth One Day International between the two sides is on Saturday.

PRICE and HARM advice for trips and slips this winter

PRICE and HARM advice for trips and slips this winter

Winter means icy and slippery conditions bringing risks of falling victim to slips and trips.

nhsThat’s why advice from NHS Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven, NHS Bradford City and NHS Bradford Districts Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) is to ‘use your head when it comes to your feet.’

But if you are unlucky enough to take a tumble and suffer a sprain or a strain, local GPs assure that if they are mild to moderate, they can be easily treated home – it is not always necessary to visit your GP or your A&E department.

Two words which are really important and well-worth remembering when it comes to sprains and strains are PRICE and HARM. Here’s what we mean:

PRICE stands for protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation.

  • Protection – protect the injured area from further injury, by using a support or, in the case of an ankle injury, wearing shoes that enclose and support your feet, such as lace-ups.
  • Rest – stop the activity that caused the injury, and rest the injured joint or muscle. Avoid activity for the first 48 to 72 hours after injuring yourself.
  • Ice – for the first 48 to 72 hours after the injury, apply ice wrapped in a damp towel to the injured area for 15 to 20 minutes every two to three hours during the day. Do not leave the ice on while you are asleep, and do not allow the ice to touch your skin directly because it could cause a cold burn.
  • Compression – compress or bandage the injured area to limit any swelling and movement that could damage it further. You can use a crepe bandage or a simple elastic bandage available from a pharmacy. It should be wrapped snugly around the affected area but not so tightly that it restricts blood flow. Remove the bandage before you go to sleep.
  • Elevation – keep the injured area raised and supported on a pillow to help reduce swelling. If your leg is injured, avoid having long periods of time where your leg is not raised.

HARM – For the first 72 hours after a sprain or muscle strain you should avoid

  • Heat – such as hot baths, saunas or heat packs (applying a controlled amount of heat to affected joints)
  • Alcohol – drinking alcohol will increase bleeding and swelling and decrease healing
  • Running – or any other form of exercise that could cause more damage
  • Massage – which may increase bleeding and swelling

Demand on emergency services increases dramatically during the winter but it is important that people stop and think: does this illness or injury really need emergency treatment? Many people who attend hospital A&E departments don’t really need to be there. If they do need medical care, there are other NHS services which are more appropriate.

Dr Colin Renwick GP, Chair NHS Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven CCG said: “We want people to stay well this winter but we realise slips and falls can be inevitable especially when conditions are icy, and older people are often more vulnerable. But sprains and strains, if mild to moderate can be treated safely at home, so that our accident and emergency service is left for those people who need it.

“If you use an alternative to A&E when you aren’t seriously ill, it could mean that you end up waiting for less time to receive care. This will also leave emergency services able to devote time to helping those with life-threatening and emergency conditions such as heart attacks, strokes and serious injuries.”

Dr Renwick added that medical help should be sought if:

  • the pain is particularly severe
  • you cannot move the injured joint or muscle
  • you cannot put any weight on the injured limb, or it gives way when you try to use it
  • the injured area looks crooked or has unusual lumps or bumps (other than swelling)
  • you have numbness, discolouration or coldness in any part of the injured area
  • the symptoms have not started to improve within a few days of self treatment

The Pharmacy First scheme launched in Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven also provides local people with rapid access to a pharmacist who can give advice and support.

Where necessary, the pharmacist can also supply medicines without the need for a doctor’s appointment.

A number of common ailments and conditions – including sprains and strains – are covered by the scheme. The service has been rolled out at pharmacies throughout Airedale, Wharfedale and Craven and is available to anyone who is registered at GP practice in those areas.

People should look out for stickers and posters displayed in the window of participating pharmacies.

Water bills to fall as investment continues in Yorkshire

Water bills to fall as investment continues in Yorkshire

Yorkshire Water’s five million customers will benefit from lower bills and better services over the next five years, the industry’s regulator, Ofwat, confirmed today.

waterAverage bills in Yorkshire will fall by around 3% over the period 2015 to 2020, ensuring that they will remain amongst the lowest in the country. This will reduce the average bill from £373 per year to £361.

This means that in 2019/20  customers will still be paying £15 less a year for their water and sewerage services than the national average water bill.

The good news was unveiled as final regulatory approval was given to Yorkshire Water’s latest five-year business plan, which will see the company invest more than £3.8 billion in the region’s water and sewerage services.

Yorkshire Water Chief Executive Richard Flint said the money would drive significant improvements in customer service, as well as delivering major environmental benefits across the region.
“This is great news for our customers who already benefit from having some of the lowest bills in the UK,” he said.

“When pulling together our plan, more than 30,000 customers gave us their views on what they thought we should be investing in. Our consultation programme was the biggest of all the water and sewerage companies, so we’re confident that it represents real value for money for our customers.

“As a company that prides itself on taking care of the water environment, we’re looking forward to building on the excellent work we’ve already undertaken to help improve the region’s reservoir catchments, countryside, rivers and streams,” said Mr Flint.

Over a third of the company’s investment plans are aimed at protecting and enhancing the region’s water environment, with £180 million alone set aside to improve the quality of Yorkshire’s inland waterways.

Other investments include:
£1.3 billion will be used to maintain the company existing and extensive network of treatment works, pumping stations, sewers and pipes
£220 million will be used to meet the challenges posed by issues like population growth
£50 million will be used to further improve drinking water quality
£10 million will be used to assist fish migration through Yorkshire’s river network, with the creation of numerous new fish passes

Customers will receive official notification of their new charges early in 2015, with further communications and bills being distributed between February and May.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with local communities to deliver our plan in the most effective and efficient way possible. We’re proud of the fact that we’re currently the most financially efficient water and sewerage company in the UK and we’re committed to ensuring that we continue to deliver value for money and invest in the things our customers say are important to them,” said Mr Flint.

He added that helping customers who were genuinely struggling to pay their bills would remain a high priority for the company which would shortly be piloting a new ‘social tariff’ to help those in most need of financial assistance.

There will be a professional photographer in City Park to capture people with the elves and the photographs will be uploaded to the artist’s Facebook page so people can share them.

This year Bradford’s ice sculpture exhibition will follow the adventures of ‘Snow Flake the Snowman’ on his travels to the North Pole over sea, air and land.

The Buttershaw-based sand and ice sculpture company, Sandinyoureye has created a number of artworks in Bradford including ice sculptures Have you seen Santa in 2012, The Children of the Snow and the Boy with the Little Idea last year and a huge sand sculpture of Charles Darwin in 2009.

The live carve starts at 11am, Saturday 20 December and people will be able to see all sculptures from 1:30pm on the same day.

The ice sculptures will be on display until they melt.

Coun Susan Hinchcliffe, Portfolio Holder for Employment, Skills and Culture, said: “We are delighted to be staging ice sculptures in City Park again.

“Last year’s sculptures were beautiful so we are really looking forward to seeing this year’s creations.

“Entry is free and I encourage everyone to come down and enjoy them. Be quick, because they may not last!”

Artist, Jamie Wardley, said: “Children and adults will be able to write their wish lists and post them in the ice post box ready for Snow Flake to deliver. Families will also be able to have their photos taken with the ice sculptures.”

Latest sign-ups at The Broadway Bradford have included some firsts for Yorkshire

Four leading retailers have signed up to take space at The Broadway development in Bradford.

Oct 2014The latest announcement of retailers sees a first for the region with Khaadi, a Middle-Eastern fashion and home retailer, announcing Bradford as its flagship store in the North. This follows two successful openings in Westfield London and Westfield Stratford City.

Khaadi will be joined by UK leading opticians Vision Express, another first for Bradford City Centre, along with jewellers Goldsmiths and Asian food outlet Yangtze.

Keith Mabbett, Director of Leasing at Westfield, commented “These new sign-ups to the Broadway highlight the widespread confidence among leading retailers in both the development and Bradford as an excellent city in which to invest. This new shopping centre will be a source of regeneration for Bradford and will encourage wider investment in the years to come.”

Retail analysts CACI forecast that retail spend will increase by 45% following opening of the Broadway to close to £1bn and footfall in the city centre is expected to increase by nearly 40%.

Rehan Syed, CEO of Khaadi said “Bradford is one of the fastest growing cities in the UK and this is exactly why we’ve chosen it as the site for our first expansion in 2015. We believe our excellent range of products will cater to the diverse community in Bradford and will complement existing retailers already in the city. We are delighted to be opening a new outlet here and we are confident that this unique opportunity will be a great success.”

The new stores will benefit from the modern retail offering at the state-of-the-art development, including double-height frontages as well as the latest interior design.

These latest additions add to the growing list of national retailers who have signed up to the Broadway, including anchor tenants Debenhams, Next and Marks & Spencer, alongside other major brands such as Topshop, New Look, River Island, Costa Coffee and Boots.

Steve Hunt, Goldsmiths Property Director said “Our Goldsmiths store will complement the existing boutique shops in Bradford and we believe it will contribute to the increased footfall which the new centre will generate. The city has one of the youngest catchments of any major retail centre in the UK and we are looking forward to bringing our range to this market.”

Yangzte will join Burger King and KFC in the food court, which comprises seven units and will add to the Broadway’s diverse range of dining.

Sally Yuen from Yangtze said “We’ve been really impressed with how this development has been gathering pace. We’re excited about expanding into a new market in Bradford and showing our local customers the great food that we have to offer.”

The Broadway development will create 2,500 new retail jobs on opening and will deliver a significant boost to the local and regional economy.

Don’t wait at A&E on a Saturday – visit your GP practice instead

Don’t wait at A&E on a Saturday – visit your GP practice instead

People are being urged not to wait at A&E if they have an urgent health problem on Saturdays during the winter – as many GP practices in Bradford are open extra hours to see patients.

Thanks to funding from Bradford City and Bradford Districts Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and NHS England, many practices are open every Saturday morning this winter.

Being ill is never fun, especially over winter; that’s why people across Bradford are being urged to get prepared as part of the local NHS Stay Well campaign.

Instead of waiting at A&E with an urgent health problem, patients should check if their practice is open and get an appointment there.

Some practices routinely open on Saturdays but during the winter many more patients will be able to access urgent healthcare from their local surgery.

Helping people make the right choice about which health service to use not only benefits themselves, but also helps doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals in making sure people receive the right care over the festive period.

Dr Aamer Khan, urgent care lead for Bradford City CCG, said: “It’s really good news that so many practices in Bradford are opening on Saturday mornings throughout the winter, which is the busiest time of the year for the NHS. Patients of practices which are not open will still be able to access urgent care through the NHS 111 service, instead of waiting at A&E when they don’t need to.

“Demand on emergency services increases dramatically at this time of year, so it is important that patients stop and think: does this injury or illness really require emergency treatment?  Many winter health problems can be solved by staying at home and taking over the counter cold and flu remedies. Unnecessary trips to A&E not only put a strain on NHS resources but also put others lives at risk.”
There are many different ways that people can get help themselves get the right treatment and allow busy NHS services to help the people who need them most.

The options are:

*   Self care – look after yourself at home with a well-stocked medicine cabinet
*   Pharmacist (chemist) – for expert advice on common illnesses and the best medicines to treat them
*   GP (Doctor) – for illnesses that just won’t go away, arrange to see your doctor
*   Call 111 – if you need urgent healthcare, contact NHS 111 which will help you access the local service that can help you best
*   A&E or 999 – only if you need very urgent medical attention.
People are also urged to visit: www.nhsstaywell.org<http://www.nhsstaywell.org> – which is an easy-to-access resource for a range of information, aimed at helping people enjoy good health during the winter.
