The Southwark News is proud to be the onlyindependent, paid for newspaper in London.

It is owned and run by two Managing Directors,Chris Mullany and Kevin Quinn. Former reporters forSouthwark News, they and David Ellis bought the titlein 2002, after the founder Dave Clark died suddenlyfrom cancer four years earlier.

Southwark News started life as the BermondseyNews in 1987, as an A-4 photocopied sheet of paperand rapidly grew to cover the entire borough and thesurrounding area. As the borough grew, so did thenewspaper.

Both directors live in the borough. A dedicated teamof staff work tirelessly to cover as much of what isgoing on as possible and strive to ensure that acommunity-led, independent newspaper can surviveand excel in a market dominated by national andmultinational media groups.

EditorialWork will need to bedone to stop mostin need panicking

SINCE THE cuts from centralgovernment were imposed,councils across the country

vowed to do their utmost to ensure themost vulnerable and needy were nothit the hardest. Yet the plan to charge some residents inneed of safety alarms is coming extremelyclose to hitting these very people. The fact that the elderly disabled maninterviewed by us this week over residentsbeing charged nearly £300 a year for safetyalarms wanted to remain anonymous,shows just how vulnerable people in needof this service are. The charge applies specifically to telecarependant alarms residents wear around theirnecks, to use if they have a fall and cannotreach the pull-cord alarms in each room. Often isolated and alone - depending onhow well they get on with or if they indeedhave family - hundreds of elderly anddisabled people in our borough are livingbehind closed doors, with just their homecare visits to look forward to. This silent group is extremely dependenton small things like the pendant alarms toget through each day with a modicum ofreassurance that someone will be there tohelp them. This is not a luxury to them but anessential service – often the differencebetween life and death. It must be made clear that SouthwarkCouncil is not imposing its new £5.75-per-week charges on every person wearing thependant, but the fact the charges are there atall goes against the very principle of thealarms. As well as being an emergency service, ona daily basis these pendants act as a securityblanket for those who really need it. Thevery idea of this reassurance being takenaway from them will do untold damage topeople who already feeling helpless andanxious.The council has made clear that the chargeis “primarily residents with savings ofabove £23,250” and others “may only begiving a portion of this according to whatthey can afford, and in some cases thismeans none at all”. For those who can afford it this will not bean issue. However, the difficulty isexplaining that the cord will not be cut fromthe most vulnerable residents using thisservice. Already anxious and alone, theywill fear that this is the start of a creepingcharge on all the essential services theycurrent rely on. The council announced it now faces cutsof £47 million over four years and it mightbe easy to sit on the sideline and criticiseevery saving it tries to make. But it isessential that as voters we think aboutwhether this saving is worth the effects itmight have on those often unable or tooscared to speak for themselves.

AN A-list celebrity surprisedstar-struck workers in Walworththis week, as he filmed his latestblockbuster. Brad Pitt was spotted on Friday,May 6 in full costume in PullensYards near Walworth Road, filminghis new World War II drama, Allied. Emma Burgin, chief operatingofficer at Alex Monroe jewellers,was lucky enough to catch a glimpseof the heartthrob. “He was wearing a pilot’s outfitwith a big overcoat – probably notgood on a hot day like it was onFriday – but he looked very much incharacter the whole time,” she toldthe News. The jewellery workshop is based ina cobbled mews, making it ideal forfilming a period drama. Emmacontinued: “There were lots of crewand production people goingbackwards and forwards all day, theyput gravel on the ground – it lookedlike a film set.” One of the studios upstairs in thebuilding was used as a dressingroom, said Burgin, and Pitt wasgiven a gift to remember theexperience by. “We gave him a pair of cufflinks,”said Emma. “The design for our nextseason has quite a World War II typelook, with a plane and propeller. Wethought he’d be a pretty good modelfor them.”

The gift clearly made animpression. “He looked up and thanked us forthe cufflinks when he was leaving,”she added. “There was a lot ofsquealing and plenty of red faces inthe office!”

Walworth is no stranger toHollywood stars: this is the secondtime Pitt has visited the area onbusiness – in 2011 he filmed part ofWorld War Z on the Elephant andCastle’s Heygate Estate – and inJanuary this year Jackie Chan was

spotted filming on East Street. The martial arts mega star wasfilming The Foreigner, which alsostars Pierce Brosnan, but he tooktime out of his schedule to pop intolocal pub The Good Intent for a drinkand a game of darts with the

landlady’s husband. Pitt was joined on set last week byco-star Marion Cotillard; a Frenchactress who has taken the lead inhigh profile films includingMacbeth, Inception and WoodyAllen’s Midnight in Paris.

THE PARTIAL closure ofTooley Street - which is toremain shut until 2018 - hasbeen ‘murderous’, a residents’representative has said.The closure of the eastbound laneto traffic at the beginning of themonth, to allow work to progressaround London Bridge Station, hascaused traffic jams across the area.The works, which have also seensome bus stops temporarilyrelocated, will coincide with theplanned closure of Tower Bridge totraffic for three months in October.Jean Davies, chair of theBermondsey Street Residents’Association, said: “The TooleyStreet closure has made TowerBridge Road absolutely murderous. “So now we have a load of trafficcoming down Bermondsey Streettrying to avoid the traffic at Tower

Bridge Road. “With all the changes to buses it’sgoing to be very hard for people. Uphere, apart from the large number oftourists, we have a large number ofelderly people. Some are very badlyoff disabled-wise. “As far as I’m concerned, they arenot even thinking about localresidents, people who walk andpeople who uses buses. It’s mostlyall about drivers or people who usebikes.” The closure was organised byNetwork Rail as part of theThamesLink Programme whereasthe proposed closure of TowerBridge Road is the City of London’sresponsibility.Cllr Anood Al-Samerai,Southwark Liberal Democrat leader,said: “The frustration we have isthat there is a lot of work in the areaand they haven’t really coordinatedit all. “Having Tooley Street closed aswell as having work on JamaicaRoad and Tower Bridge is going to

have a big impact on people.“The different transport companiesneed to talk to each other. Weunderstand it needs to be done butthey need to study the effects. Weare very concerned.“They all need to talk togetherabout the combined closures and theimpact it will have on thecommunity. They keep looking atone bit at a time and they shouldlook at the whole thing.”A Network Rail spokespersonsaid: “We absolutely realise that thiswork will inconvenience somepeople and the decision to part-closethe road was not taken lightly.“We have been keeping localresidents informed and we havebeen touring affected business andoffice buildings and presentingthem with our plans so staff knowwhat is happening and when.“More than 50m people useLondon Bridge station each yearand this work is vital to providethem with a station that is fit for thefuture.”

A WOMAN from Elephant andCastle is taking part in a charitynight-walk the same month shebegins chemotherapy to treat abrain tumour. Nicola Manuel, 26, is halfwaythrough a course of treatment –radiotherapy and an operation haveremoved 95% of the tumour – and isstarting the final phase soon. Despite this Nicola is taking part inWalk50, an event organised byDimbleby Cancer Care to celebrate its50th year providing support to cancerpatients in south east London, basedat Guy’s and St Thomas’ hospitals. “Training is going well – I’mswimming every day and I’m a keenwalker,” said Nicola. “I’m startingchemo next week. They just don’tknow how it might affect me but asI’m fit it hopefully won’t interferewith the walk.”The brain tumour was discoveredlast November, when Nicola had ascan following a seizure. Doctors saidthe seizure could have been broughtabout by a combination of caffeine,exercise and the tumour, which until

then had gone unnoticed. Nicola said: “I was actually trainingfor the Brighton Marathon when I hadthe seizure that led to my diagnosis –they said running and coffee mighthave been the trigger.” With less than a month to go until theevent, Nicola said: “I’m feeling strongand positive, I’ve got a good energy.“I didn’t even know about the centreuntil I got brain cancer – they’ve beenincredible. They’ve really been therefor me. I’ve taken up all thecomplementary therapies they offer,which have been so worth it. With thiswalk I just want to thank them for thefavour.” Walk50 takes place on June 10,starting at 7pm. Participants will walka 50km route through central Londonacross the river, beginning at StThomas’ Hospital and finishing atGuy’s, where the new Guy’s CancerCentre will open later this year. All the money raised will go towardsDimbleby Cancer Care’s ‘Care for theFuture’ appeal, which aims to raise£500,000 by the end of 2016 tocontinue and expand its work. To support Nicola visit

A MOTHER and two childrenwere seen jumping from theirwindow to escape a fire in ablock of flats in Elephant andCastle on Monday night.Forty-five residents wereevacuated after the fire broke outbefore 10pm at the four-storey blockof flats, on the junction betweenNew Kent Road and Meadow Row.London Fire Brigade (LFB) haveconfirmed six fire engines and 35fire officers were called to the flats,owned by the Southwark & LondonDiocesan Housing Association.An eyewitness, Zainab Yusuff, 21,said: “I was on a bus to LondonBridge at about 10pm when we hadto get out because the road wasblocked.“It really was quite scary, there wassmoke everywhere.“First I saw someone banging onthe window, then they opened it andyou could see smoke from inside.“Some people had to jump out andI saw two kids hurt themselves.“I could see the fire had started inthe middle of the building and it

look like it was spreading over tothe right side.“There was a crowd of peoplegathering and we were moved on bythe fire brigade.”The LFB later said the blazedamaged the communal stairwellbetween the second and third floorand part of the roof.A spokesman for the brigade said:“One man has been rescued and wasimmediately given oxygen afterinhaling smoke.”

TRIBUTES HAVE been paid to a‘gentle giant’ who became a well-known face in Bermondsey, whetherhe was playing Father Christmas tolocal kids or a bouncer at apensioners’ party.Gomer Roberts was familiar to many inpubs around the area due to his toweringpresence and sunny disposition.Originally from Wales, Gomer, 53,moved to London around twenty yearsago, living above pubs across theborough. Friend Kevin Stokes, who spoke to theNews at The Old Bank pub in The Blue,Southwark Park Road, this week, said:“We first met when he was living abovethe Golden Lion. He always lived abovepubs. “There used to be an ill man called Petersuffering from cancer who was livingthere at the time too and Gomer alwaysused to make him dinner. That is the kindof man he was. Very thoughtful and kind.He used to like jokes and had a big laugh.”A senior banksman [a person whodirects cranes and large vehicles] by trade,Gomer’s large appearance made him hardto miss as he either raised money forcharity or kept the peace as a bouncer atthe News’s pensioner party in 2007 -having to separate two octogenarian loverivals who were throwing punches overthe 90-year-old object of their affection.‘So who am I going to put on the naughtystep?’ he bellowed as he stepped inbetween them.Pam Gorgan, another friend, said:“Gomer used to come to ours forChristmas dinner every year. He loved mybread sauce and would play with thechildren on the floor.“Imagine that – a big man like Gomerplaying on the floor with tiny toy cars.”Involvement in the community ranged

from dressing as Father Christmas in thesquare on the Blue, to raising more than£1,000 for Help for Heroes by wearing

nothing but a Welsh flag and a mankini. A lover of cheese on toast and callingeveryone ‘sunshine’, Gomer was a

reliable friend to all who knew him andcared greatly about his community. Thecause of Gomer’s death is not yet clear.

POUNDLAND HAS filed forplanning permission where theold Co-Op supermarket onSouthwark Park Road used to be,prompting concerns over how itwill impact on smaller retailers. The discount chain requestedpermission to display signs at the uniton April 18, confirming previousrumours. Russell Dryden, head ofBermondsey BID, said: “It is verydisappointing that the Co-Op hasclosed and especially for the staff,many who have worked there for a

very long time and had built greatrelations with their customers over theyears. “I went into the store on Saturday tofind that it was packed all day withpeople clearing the stock atdiscounted rates.“One member of staff I spoke to saidthat it was a shame that more peopledid not use the store on a regular basis.“While it is good news that the unitcould be occupied quickly, andPoundland does provide good valueand attract additional footfall, myconcern is that it could be detrimentalto the smaller retailers. “Many who have voiced theirconcerns to me and it is debatable if it

is the favoured option for a small localretail area like the Blue, which isrenowned for its high content of smallfamily run shops that offer a uniquepersonal quality service and are thelifeblood of the area.”Blue regular Matthew Redmond, 78,said: “It’s not a good thing. You onlyget rubbish in the Poundland. The Co-Op was a little bit more expensivethan the Iceland. But we still wentthere, they do everything.”Another shopper, Maureen Statham,69, retired, told the News: “It’s betterthan not having anything or gettingmore betting or fast food shops. It’sbetter to be used than to stay empty.”Poundland declined to comment.

A BERMONDSEY boy of sevenwho has been a model before hecould even stand is donating hishard-earned money to unwellchildren.Harvey Eldred is still at RedriffPrimary School, but is alreadybuilding a brand that has seen himfeature in adverts for Sainsbury’s,Tesco, Asda and Mothercare.Now the little looker is giving £100to two other local heart-stringpullers: Harvey Brown and RubyLongman.Millwall-mad Harvey Brown,seven, from Bermondsey, is one of78 children in the UK suffering fromMorquio, an enzyme deficiency thatmeans his organs will continue togrow but his weak bones won’t.Victoria Brown, Harvey’s mum,said: “We know Harvey (Eldred)through a family friend. He is justthe sweetest little boy and I think it isamazing what he’s doing.”He also wants to donate hismodelling money to help ten-year-

old Ruby Longman, who suffersfrom the rare neurological condition,Rett Syndrome.Rett Syndrome’s clinical features

include small hands and feet and adeceleration of the rate of headgrowth, as well as making sufferersprone to seizures due to intestinal

disorders. Little Ruby also cannotwalk or talk.Ruby’s mum, Timi, said: “It’samazing as you don’t get much from

children usually, not without a fight. “It was upsetting at the same timeat the thought that a little boy’s goingto give so much as you can’t getmuch from adults. “If Ruby could speak I’m sure shewould be delighted.”Harvey Eldred’s dad, Gary, ofSouthwark Park Road, said he signedhis boy up for modelling when hewas little.He said: “I just applied when hewas a baby. He is actually quite a shyone, but he has gone for casting incommercials. He has been onbillboards, magazines, and in-storeboards. I just thought we should giveit a go. The first one he got was forMothercare, and the jobs have beencoming in ever since.”Speaking on his little boy’sdecision to use his money to helpRuby and Harvey Brown, Gary said:“It’s a nice gesture. It’s just such ashame because Ruby and Harveymiss out on so much. We want toraise awareness of their conditionsand help spread the world toencourage other people to givesomething too.”

AN ELDERLY disabled man in acouncil-run sheltered home hastold the News he was shocked todiscover he and other residentsare now being charged nearly£300 a year for safety alarms.As of last month, the charges haveaffected residents across the boroughreceiving care services, including in20 council sheltered homes for over-60s, or in their own homes.Southwark Council beganintroducing its new £5.75-per-weekcharges for safety alarms in April, toresidents with savings of more than£23,250, and depending on theirincome.The charge applies specifically totelecare pendant alarms residentswear around their necks, to use if theyhave a fall and cannot reach the pull-chord alarms in each room. The disabled man, who did not wantto be named, told the News: “I’vebeen living here for sixteen years. Afew days ago we had a letter saying ifwe do not pay every week, ourpendants will be disconnected.“I’m disabled and always in this flat,I’ve done physical work all my lifeand it’s got to the point where myback won’t support my body anymore.“My problem is that this used to justbe in the tenancy agreement wesigned up to as standard. Everyoneunderstands that these alarms aremeant to be a basic service.“They said they would justdisconnect us if we don’t pay. Butwhat if someone doesn’t and theyhave an accident, and needs anambulance and can’t call for help?”The 20 sheltered units run by

Southwark Council accommodatetenants who are renting privately, andwho are receiving housing benefit.They are advertised on the council’swebsite as having “24-hour alarm”services, used to “alert the shelteredhousing support co-ordinator or otherresponse team”.The new charge also follows agovernment-enforced two-per-centcouncil tax increase, specificallydesigned to help councils pay foradult social care. The tax hike came

as the council announced it now facescuts of £47m over four years.Councillor Stephanie Cryan,Southwark Council’s cabinet memberfor adult care and financial inclusion,said: “We are committed to continuegiving people the services they needand we know how important thetelecare service is to older residents inhelping them feel safe in their homes,but significant budget cuts meancouncils need to be more realisticabout how far funding can go.

“Introducing fairer contributions asa result of government changes in theCare Act, and asking people who canafford to contribute to do so, is anecessary way to help us to continueto provide quality care services foreveryone who needs them. “This does not mean that anyoneshould go without, but just that somepeople may need to contribute if theycan afford it.”The council is also offering five percent discounts for residents who

receive council-run care at home.But the worried resident who spoketo the News also felt that this newcharge could lead to the council andhousing associations trying tointroduce more charges in future.“They could well start charging forthe pull-chord in the bathrooms next,”he said.“If they can get away with this, thenwhat will they start charging us fornext?”Editorial - page 2

The MP for Bermondsey and OldSouthwark has told the News thatif Labour does not become more‘ambitious’ then ‘the very peoplethey want to help will bemarginalised and left behind’.Speaking in an interview about hisfirst year in Parliament, Neil Coylecriticised Labour leader JeremyCorbyn’s approach to elections andhis focus on issues that ordinarypeople do not care about.He said: “If we are not ambitious inthe Labour Party for the people thatwe seek to serve then we might aswell pack up and go home now.“Just pretending that hanging onwas good enough is not ambitious. “The Labour Party wantsopportunities for everyone and can’toffer those opportunities by having anagenda that says ‘losing a bit in thiselection wasn’t that bad’.“In Bermondsey and Southwark Ican honestly say that no one has everraised the issue of the Falklands onthe doorstep and no one has everraised Trident on the doorstep. “They are just not issues that comeup. Their most immediate concernsare housing, education for theirchildren, income levels and theNHS.” Mr Coyle’s comments come after adisappointing round of local electionresults outside of London in England,Scotland and Wales.

He said he wanted to wait till afterthe elections took place to vent‘frustration’ so that he could not beaccused of ‘trying to damage’ electionchances.As well as welcoming the newlyelected Labour London Mayor SadiqKhan, Mr Coyle expressed desire forthe party not to mirror the negativesof Conservative Zac Goldsmith’scampaign by just saying ‘we’re notthe Tories’. In his first year as MP Mr Coylewon a seat on the powerful Work and

Pensions Select Committee and willsoon question former BHS boss SirPhilip Green on his handling ofBHS’s pensions. Speaking on local issues Mr Coylesaid he was working with PoliceMinister Mike Penning on having aknife amnesty before the summer andholding more mobile surgeries to helpengage the area. Mr Coyle warned that thegovernment’s housing bill would posedifficulties for Southwark in thecoming years as it would ‘take supply

from under the council’s nose’ whiledemanding that more homes are built. He said that Southwark Council’sleader Peter John had been in contactto discuss what the bill would meanto the borough and how the councilcould adapt, so as still to deliver on2014’s manifesto. When asked what it was like toleave the council to be a Member ofParliament full time, he said: “I missplanning a lot. You really got a handleon how strongly people thought aboutdifferent issues.

“You got physically to change thelandscape of Southwark. There arebits in Southwark that are therebecause of my role on the planningcommittee in the past, or not there inone case. “It was a bit of a wrench coming offthe committee and to have that levelof detachment now is quite sad Ithink.”Father to a six-week-old daughter,Esme, formal paternity leave is on thehorizon to help balance representingthe constituency and life at home.

THE NEW London Assemblymember for Southwark andLambeth has been confirmed asLabour’s Florence Eshalomi.From the two boroughs, Florence took96,946 votes, equalling 51 per cent of the189,984 votes cast overall. The Brixton Hill councillor told theNews: “I have just about caught up onsleep, but I’m absolutely delighted tobecome the new assembly member andit’s a real honour.“It’s important we get more people fromdiverse backgrounds. Growing up on acouncil estate, I never thought I would be

in this position. “It’s going to be an interesting few yearswith Sadiq as mayor. We will beaddressing the key issues like housing,pollution and crime. I’m very muchlooking forward to picking up where[previous assembly member] Val left off.”Her nearest challenger was Conservativecandidate Robert Flint, who had sixteen-point-six per cent.For the Liberal Democrats, formerRotherhithe councillor, Caroline PidgeonMBE, who had been running for mayor,held her seat in the London-wideAssembly. She is now the party’s onlyassembly member.Commenting on the result, Southwark’sleader of the opposition, Councillor

Anood Al-Samerai, said: “It’s great tohave Southwark’s Caroline Pidgeon backfighting residents’ corner on the LondonAssembly again. “Liberal Democrats will now beworking with Caroline for more affordablehomes, better childcare, more police andcheaper transport fares in Southwark.”The Green Party are also celebratingtheir “best ever” results for Southwark andLambeth with 25,793 votes, a 13.5 percent share. Green candidate, Rashid Nix,said: “The vote is also a reflection that theGreens are representing local peopleagainst a Labour council that isn'tlistening.”*See Florence’s first monthly Newscolumn - page 34

PECKHAM FAMILIES in fourblocks of flats have been giveneighteen months to find new homes,after the buildings were ordered tobe demolished or refurbished onlySIX YEARS after they were built.Residents of the 85 flats in Solomon’sPassage, off Peckham Rye, owned byWandle Housing Association, have saidthey were “heartbroken” when theyheard the news on April 25.The housing association has confirmedto the News that independentinvestigators discovered “significantproblems” and “defects” such as waterdamage to the four buildings’ timberframework. Several residents told the News theyhad complained to Wandle since 2011 ofproblems such as flooding in thebasement car park, and cockroachesgetting into ground-floor flats. Wandlesay they “started receiving” complaintsin 2013.Residents say they feel “scared” as theyhave been told not to use their balconies,while wardens have been commissionedby Wandle are patrolling the blockscarrying out fire safety checks, and extrafire alarms have been installed.Wandle have confirmed that of the fourbuildings, blocks 40 and 46, at either endof Solomon’s Passage, will first berefurbished, leaving blocks 42 and 44 tobe demolished and then rebuilt. Blocks40 and 46 are home to leaseholders andpart-ownership residents, while blocks42 and 44 are occupied by private andsocial-housing tenants. Many whom the News spoke to werefurious. One concerned mother who haslived there since 2010, said: “My son isa pupil at Ivydale Primary School, hecried when we told him. All his friendslive in the area and he doesn’t want tohave to move school.“I thought we would stay here forever.We have worked so hard and spent somuch money to make this flat ours, andit’s all going to go down in rubble. I havebuilt my life in this area and our kids arehave just settled in.”

The mum also said that among themany complaints she had made toWandle since 2011, some were offlooding in the basement car park, whichattracted cockroaches. “It’s also the way they broke this to us,”She said. “At no point before the meeting[on April 25] did they say it was going tobe about demolishing the buildings.”Residents who spoke to the Newsoutside the flats said Wandle had not toldthem about the “fire wardens”. Untilrecently they had assumed the wardenswere security guards.A statement from Wandle said: “Duringthe early investigations it becameapparent that the fire protection in someareas could be improved. It wasrecommended by our independent fireexpert (Building ResearchEstablishment) that we provide

additional fire protection measures whilstwe continued to do further investigations.“Following the completion of theinvestigations, no further risks wereidentified and the London Fire Brigadecontinue to be confident that thebuildings are safe.”The concerned mother also questionedwhy only the blocks of flats with socialtenants were due to be demolished, whilethe lease holders’ and shared-ownershipblocks (40 and 46) would be refurbished.Wandle responded saying although thebuildings “aesthetically” appear similar,block 46 is an exception because it isbuilt with reinforced concrete betweenthe Ground and First floor, while block40 is built on separate foundations. Theirplan of action, Wandle said, wasrecommended to them by anindependent construction company

Keegans Ltd.Despite the upheaval, the housingassociation said it would be appropriatefor residents to continue paying rent andservice charges to cover the “continuedday-to-day running of the buildings” butthat no costs associated with theinvestigations, defects or refurbishmentsare being passed on.As compensation, all residents arebeing offered a “disturbance allowance”of up to £3,000 to cover moving costs.Those who have to permanently movewill be entitled to a “home loss payment”of £5,300.London Fire Brigade were contacted,and a spokesman told the News theyhave not carried out inspections of thebuilding, as they are not required to doso. Some residents also queried whetherSouthwark Council, who give planning

approval and carry out building controlinspections, may have questions toanswer. A council spokesman said: “Thecouncil’s building control team isresponsible for making sure the propermaterials are used during the buildingprocess and making final checks oncompletion to ensure the buildingregulations are met. Over 40 inspectionswere made throughout the buildingprocess and these checks werecompleted. “However the team is not responsiblefor quality control or overseeingworkmanship, this is down to thedeveloper who would normally, as in thiscase, employ a clerk of works on site tooversee workmanship. “This is what has failed in this instanceand what Wandle are pursuing with thebuilders and not the council.”

What next for residents?A WANDLE spokesmanoutlined the options availableto residents: “[Those whoseflats are waiting to bedemolished] can stay putwhere they are for at least 18months while the other blocksare refurbished.“At that point they can moveinto the newly-refurbished blocks.For those who can’t, we willmove them to other Wandleproperties or we will match thecost of moving them into theprivate-rented sector.“For lease holders who want tomove out, we’re offering to buyback their property at market-value rate plus ten per cent uplift.“We’re speaking to on a one-to-one basis to find out their needsand how we can flex thoseoptions to try to make this asseem-less as possible.”


FISHER FC may be tenants attheir own new ground inRotherhithe as SouthwarkCouncil has decided there will bean ‘open tender process’ for theleasehold. The club will have to go head-to-head with other companies to securethe leasehold of St Paul’s SportsGround on Salter Road if they wantto benefit from the site’s revenue. Failure to do so will mean FisherFC may remain in a similar situationto the one they are in now in Dulwichwhere they ground-share withDulwich Hamlet and pay rent,putting into question the club’ssustainability. Ben Westmancott, Fisher’schairman, said: “The council havetold me that they will be goingthrough a tendering process to findan agent to operate the new ground. “While we understand thereasoning behind doing that, it iscausing a delay in Fisher being ableto enact our plans, rebuilding ourclub for the coming season. “However, we are determined towork with the council to achieve thebest outcome, which is to bringFisher home officially and for it togrow as a thriving community clubin a sustainable way.”Since 2004 Fisher FC has beensharing a ground with Dulwich

Hamlet at their Champion Hillground, but have remainedcommitted to returning home to thenorth of the borough. Cllr Barrie Hargrove, SouthwarkCouncil’s cabinet member for publichealth, parks and leisure, said: “I amdelighted to confirm we are now inthe final stages at St Paul’s SportsGround, Salter Road and will shortlybe conducting an open tender process

to secure a competitive managementdeal and the best value possible forlocal people. “Its completion this summer willmean a new public park for localresidents, as well as a fantastic newfootball facility for the communityand local grassroots football clubFisher FC, bringing them back toBermondsey in time for the newseason.”

The Free Film movement has grownsince its inception eight years ago tobe hosted in twelve locations acrossLondon; the event at Herne Hill is inits fourth year. The programme is based onvolunteer suggestions and requestsfrom the local community, allowingfor an eclectic mix of mainstream andcult classics, documentaries, and shortfilm nights. There are events planned throughoutthe month, ranging from Grease! (21May) at Brockwell Park, to A SundayIn Hell (26 May), which follows the1976 Paris-Roubaix cyclingcompetition, and Whiplash (28 May)at Brockwell Lido. Some of the films’ themes convergewith the locations they will bescreened at; the South LondonBotanical Institute will show SilentRunning (22 May), a 1970s sci-fiwhich follows the travails of anidealist trying to save the last plants onEarth.When the location is outdoors,movie-goers are advised to ‘bringsomething to sit on and whatever youneed to stay warm and dry’.

34 OPINION www.southwarknews.co.uk/letters Southwark News, Thursday May 12, 2016

Lib Dem not electedbut bus journeypolicy is a winnerIT IS incredibly welcome thatSadiq Khan’s first majorannouncement as Mayor ofLondon has been to introduce abus ticket to allow passengers twojourneys within a 60 minuteperiod. It is a policy that will make a hugedifference for many people.A one-hour bus ticket is a policy Ihave advocated and campaigned onfor nearly a decade. It was in the Liberal DemocratLondon Mayor and Assemblyelection manifesto in the last election,as well as back in 2008 and 2012. I now look forward to the newMayor adopting other LiberalDemocrat policies, starting with halfprice tube and TfL rail services forany Pay as you go or contactlessjourney starting before 7.30 am.Caroline Pidgeon, LiberalDemocrat London Assembly Member

TfL chiefs earn afortune and theroads are a messWITH REGARD to the storyon Tooley Street ‘Major road tohave eastbound lane closeduntil February 2018, SouthwarkNews, April 28, 2016’. Shouldn’t this have come beforepublic consultation where it mighthave been suggested that this couldhave at least been delayed until StThomas’ Street (if ever) reopens? The TfL board all enjoy eye-watering salaries, bundles morethan Mr Cameron’s – and his MPs!Underneath them four hundred,count ‘em, earn ONE THOUSANDPOUNDS per year. Their superiorsare seemingly hell-bent onimposing chaos, devoid of joinedup thinking, on seeminglydisregarded ‘ignorant’ motorist, nomatter, that out of necessity, theyhave to commute by car, or simplydrive to earn a living. Why should they bother? Theirastronomical salaries are being

funded by the congestion chargestealth-tax, something that, in myopinion, hasn’t made a blind bit ofdifference to London gridlock. Yet, despite hitting the (financial)jackpot, this bunch of twerps (Iwould have used a stronger word)have no authority or jurisdictionover the prevention of six hundredprivate-hire drivers adding to theclogged-road misery every week. The clue to all this? Listen to theTfL adverts on commercial radio.Always delivered by a finger-wagging, nanny-state voice;warning of yet another impendingmonths-long snarl up. The sub-text:we hate the motorist. To paraphrase the TfL by-line

“Every journey matters”, substitutean anglo-saxon expletive for thelast word – beginning with F andending with D!Mr L. S. Braidwood, Elephant &Castle

Stop investing in fossilfuels SouthwarkDONNACHADH MCCARTHYis right to highlight the risks toSouthwark residents presentedby air pollution and flooding.. It is all the more surprising then,that the council currently stillinvests our money in to the veryindustry that is causing both: fossilfuels. I hope that councillors will takeheed of this newspaper's warnings,and do the right thing by joining thegrowing ranks of councils, faithinstitutions and foundations optingto divest from fossil fuels. Tim Gee, Peckham

Coyle why sabotageCorbyn’s victory?WHAT A disappointment todiscover that local SouthwarkMP Neil Coyle has been usingthe national press to attack hisown party's leader. Since Jeremy Corbyn's decisivevictory in the leadership electioneight months ago, London Labourhas multiplied in size and wonlandslide election after landslide

election. Why on earth would Mr Coylewant to sabotage that? Jasper Richardson, Peckham

Remembering MayorTayo Situ - our fatherTODAY MARKS five years sincewe lost our father, the formerMayor of Southwark andcommunity champion. Looking back, we must firstly takethe opportunity to thank theSouthwark community for the supportshown to our family. Over the last five years we’ve beentouched by your support, providing uscomfort and strength as we came toterms with our loss. We’ve lost track at the amount oftimes conversation...s have startedwith the words ‘I knew your father’,and as you’ve shared your memorieswe’ve continued to stand in awe ofthe generosity of your comments.Nowhere is the love more palpablethan where he called home and wherehe represented for nine years,Peckham. Since his death you’ve joined us tocontinue his work fostering youngleaders and the Tayo Situ Foundationwas set up to continue his legacy. The foundation has hosted awards,guest lectures and joined youngpeople to challenge leaders across theborough. All of this is a testament to thesupport we’ve received but crucially,our shared goal of carrying on thetorch.Dad use to always reiterate the needto take the first step, mainly he wasreferring to us doing our homeworkbut looking back we guess he alsomeant with projects, work and life.As we walk through Peckham now

that phrase is ever salient, the area haschanged so much and we know hewould be proud of the prospects forthe area. These achievements are inpart down to people like our father,his fellow Councillors andcommunity activists, they areSouthwark’s heroes. Unfortunatelysome of them are not around anymoreto see their achievements, theydedicated their lives to public serviceand it all started with taking the firststep.

We owe them a tremendous amountand our borough wouldn’t be theshining light it is without their publicservice.So as we remember Tayo today, wealso remember all those who haveworked tirelessly for the progress oftheir community. Over the next few days, we will besharing our memory of Tayo andwelcome you to share any of yours.#TayowouldsayCllr's Michael & Johnson Situ

Hope over fear

IAMdeeply honoured to beelected as the new LondonAssembly Member for my home

seat of Lambeth and Southwark. Growing up on a council estate in theheart of Brixton, I never dreamt that Iwould have the opportunity to representover 450,000 residents in the best part ofSouth London. I became involved inpolitics at a young age as I wanted to seemore people from a diverse background,and from different parts of ourcommunity, working together to helpmake the changes we all seek to achieve.I may be biased, but I was also excitedto see a fellow South Londoner electedas the new Mayor of London. Sadiq’slandslide victory will see us workingclosely over the next four years and Iwas proud to be part of a focusedpositive campaign. There is no placefor hate or division in such a diversecity like London. I have witnessed thedifferent diverse communities acrossLambeth and Southwark working withlocal councillors, MPs and outgoingAssembly Member to make our twoboroughs even greater. I intend to buildon this work and I’m really lookingforward to getting out and meeting moremembers of the community over thenext few weeks and months.Sadiq Khan visited Southwarkfrequently in recent months and he haspledged to be a Mayor for allLondoners. He has vowed to get to gripswith the housing crisis and I know first-hand how important it is for people tohave access to decent affordablehousing. Data from the 2011 censusestimates that there are over 70,000people living in private rentedaccommodation in Southwark and homeownership is becoming increasinglymore difficult for people of mygeneration and younger. On thedoorstep, talking to residents housing isalways the top issue and I am keen towork with the new Mayor andSouthwark Council to help get the muchneeded investment into the borough tohelp us build genuine affordable homes. Sadiq has also committed toaddressing the growing cost of living inLondon and addressing transport costswhich increased significantly underBoris Johnson. With parts of Lambethand Southwark covering zone 1 nearLondon Bridge, Waterloo right throughto zone 4 near the Gipsy Hill andCrystal Palace border I am lookingforward to residents benefiting from thefare free for the next four years. I am really looking forward to workingwith Mayor Sadiq Khan to get Lambethand Southwark firmly back on track.

As I took my seat I wasimmediately struck bythe elaborate decor of

floating giant white orbs and11ft-swaying cylinders hangingfrom the open ceiling, giving theimpression that we were guestsat a grand wedding, writesDan Martin...Propped on tables in the yardamong the audience are Hermia,Demetrius, Lysander and Helenus;brought to our attention by Egeus.Hermia played by Anjana Vasan isthreatened with death if she doesn’tmarry Demetrius.The play then takes us on itsmystical journey of human struggleand folklore with jokes aplenty,notably Ewan Wardrop’s hilariousrendition of ‘Bottom’.Among the many successfulmodernisations of the play, andperhaps the most radical, is thecasting of a male character to playHelena. Director Emma Rice explains, “bymaking it a gay relationship Iunderstand why Demetrius feels thesocial pressure to make a ‘goodmarriage’. I also understand why, atthe end, he says that he has returnedto his ‘natural taste’”. Nothing of thetext is changed, the only differenceis Helena’s gender.Katy Owen’s portrayal of Puckwas played with high-energy and amischief that extended into theaudience; at one point shoving half abanana into the mouth of anunsuspecting audience member.

Herbal Love, Dancing Fairies, witha backbeat of sitar, the productionhad a ‘60s counterculture feel to it.All in all it was a thoroughlyenjoyable modernisation with plentyof laughter, eclectic music and“gender bending”.

history

125-YEARS-AGO on May 41891 Portland House onPeckham Road opened itsdoors as The South LondonFine Art Gallery to theworking people of southLondon. Today it is betterknown as the South LondonGallery. Tracing its roots to 91Blackfriars Road in 1868 as theSouth London Working Men’sCollege, with Professor T.H.Huxley, the grandfather of AldousHuxley, as its principal, thegallery found its muse aftermanager and founder WilliamRossiter changed the college intoa free library at 143 KenningtonLane. In 1878 Rossiter organisedan exhibition of art works fromprivate collections and the galleryhasn’t looked back since. After two more moves andRossiter’s purchase of thefreehold of Portland House, thegallery settled in Peckham whereit has stayed for more than acentury. On its opening day, asThe South London Fine ArtGallery, it showed a changingprogramme of fine and appliedarts with a collection beginning toform of donated works from

artists and subscribers. A uniquecenterpiece for the gallery floorwas commissioned by SirWalter Crane with theinscription: “The sourceof art is in the life of allpeople.”The next year,newspaper magnateJohn Passmore Edwardsdonated £3,000 to thegallery to build alecture hall and library,which was opened bythe Prince of Wales. In1896 the gallery wastransferred to the Vestryof Camberwell, thelocal authority of thetime, and Rossiter wasforced to retire, dyingshortly afterwards.The first president ofthe College, Libraryand Gallery was PrimeMinister WilliamGladstone till 1887,who was succeeded byartist Sir FredericLeighton, President ofthe Royal Academy. During the SecondWorld War the gallerywas turned into a foodoffice. By April 1941 thePassmore Edwards Lecture Halland Library was badly damagedin an air raid and had to be

demolished once the war ended.The gallery reopened in 1949 with

an annual programme oftemporary exhibitions. Margot Heller, Director of the

South London Gallery,said: “The South LondonGallery was founded withthe mission of bringingart to the people of southLondon, and it has doneso ever since, providingan inspiring free publicresource and adding tothe quality of life forpeople living in the area. “In the late nineteenthcentury its visitor figureswere almost equivalent totoday’s, at a time whenthere wasn’t any otherfree public cultural offerin the area, so it’s greatthat in the last five yearswe’ve managed toachieve a comparablelevel of popularity,especially when there isso much more on offer. “What makes the galleryspecial for me is the wayit combines itsinternational reputation

for working with some ofthe best contemporary artists inthe world, including those at anearly stage in their career, withplaying a really important role

locally, involving thousands ofchildren, young people and adultsin contemporary art and a host ofcreative social and learningactivities.” The London Borough ofSouthwark took overresponsibility for the gallery in1965, with independent trustees,where since it has hostedexhibitions from internationallyacclaimed artists such as Gilbertand George, Anselm Kiefer andSherrie Levine. In 2000 the Gallery wasaccepted into Stage 1 of the ArtsCouncil’s StabilisationProgramme with a grant of£30,000 to look at the viability ofbecoming independent fromSouthwark Council. It wassuccessful and in 2003 separatedfrom the council to be run as anindependent charitable trust. Remaining as popular today as itwas when it first opened, in 2015it announced plans to expand intothe former Peckham Road FireStation. A fundraising campaignwas then launched to help with itsrenovation and transformationinto a cultural centre and is ontrack to open in 2018.

Sun shines on disability cricket

The News is the official regional media partner of the Kia Oval

The 2016 Surrey CCCDisability Day wasanother huge success –

with over 400 disabled childrenfrom around London andSurrey coming to the Kia Oval.With Surrey skipper Gareth Battyon hand to check out the activities,including being introduced tovisually impaired cricket and tablecricket, and the sun beating downout of a cloudless sky the day couldnot have gone better.Previous years had seen the SurreyPhysical and Learning Disabilityside and Surrey Visually ImpairedXI play tri-series against localopposition – so this year was theturn of the Surrey CCC Deaf Squad,who split into two separate sides toplay against an England DeafAcademy team.Table cricket, which was being

played in the Players’ Dining Room,is a form of the game accessible toeven those with the mostdebilitating disabilities such ascerebral palsy or motor neuronedisease. Played on a large table,bowlers push a small ball down aramp with the batsman using a smallbat to hit to different areas of thetable.Visually Impaired cricket is playedwith the larger stumps and a ball thesize of a small football. With a smallbell inside the ball, players – whoare blindfolded to help standardisethe different levels of impairment –are able to hear it arrive at the creaseand subsequently choose their shot.Elsewhere, children from a host ofSEN schools around the local areahad the chance to enjoy the historicKia Oval outfield, taking part incoaching drills, special games and

also trying their hand at blindcricket!The event was organised by theSurrey Cricket Foundation, whosedirector Paul Taylor said:“Disability Day at the Kia Oval isalways a truly inspirational event.To see what challenges these youngpeople have overcome is incrediblyhumbling and it’s amazing to givethem a chance to experience playingat a world class stadium.“Whilst this day always providesan annual highlight, ourcommitment to supporting disabilitycricket lasts all year and runsthroughout London and Surrey.”

FISHER FC manager DeanHarrison has said it is unrealisticto expect more than survivalwith the club in its current state.The Black and Whites finished twoplaces above the sole relegation slotin the Southern Counties EastFootball League table, but the Fishergaffer stated little more can be donewith a club who survive onminuscule income.Many hope a return to a newground in Rotherhithe this summerwill provide new revenue streams,but until that is signed, sealed anddelivered Fisher will just be shootingfor survival according to the club’sfirst team boss.

Harrison said: “Nobody shouldexpect Fisher to be a top half of thetable team when we operate on solittle income. “There is so much money floatingaround in our league that it is veryvery difficult to expect we should beat that end of the league.”He added: “It’s difficult [to assesslast season] with the club’s state as itis as it’s an achievement just to avoidrelegation in it’s current state. “At the same time from a personalpoint of view I would have liked usto have ended up higher in theleague.“There was not a lot of pointsdifference between us and the sides

in tenth or eleventh place in thetable.“Things did not go our wayparticularly with the injury sufferedby striker Luke Haidarovic that kepthim out for most of the season, wesimply didn’t replace him or thegoals he would have brought to ourgame.”But Harrison was happy with thesquad who ended the campaign. Hetold the News: “I did think the squadwe had at the end of the season wasone I was happy with. The last fourgames were good and the squadcome together well in the end.“It just took too long for us to geland get to that stage.”

DULWICH HAMLET bossGavin Rose said he needs a sidethat can conquer all playingconditions and surfaces if the clubis to realise its dream of promotionto the Conference South.The Pink and Blues came within agame of promotion last campaign,only to fall to a 3-1 defeat against EastThurrock in the Ryman PremierDivision play off final.But the campaign promised muchmore at Christmas, when Hamlettopped the table, only for a disastrousset of results in the New Year whichleft the club limping into the play offsat the seasons end.Rose admitted lessons needed to belearnt for next season. He told the News: “It was an up anddown season. We started well andplayed decent football which took usto the top of the table.“But around January and February

time we had some poor andunexpected results and that really costus the league title.“What made it more disappointing isthose results were against teams whoin the end were either relegated orfighting relegation, if you lose againstyour title rivals you can maybeunderstand that but losing to thoseteams was harder to take.“We made a late surge, after bringingin some players, but we just came upshort in the final game.”He added: “This is a tough leagueand represents what is good about nonleague football. You have to play in allseasons, conditions and pitches andyou have to cope with all of them.“Around January or February wherethe pitches aren’t as good we didn’tperform as well as teams likeHampton and Richmond, and we haveto look at how we improve on that.“There is a theory our style of playmay be better suited to a league higherup where conditions and pitches arebetter, but you have to get there firstand we need a team who can cope in

all conditions.”He added that he was happy with thebalance of experience and youth hehad last season, but ultimately othersides consistency proved moredecisive than talent.“We think we got the balance [inexperienced players in the squad]right. There is an argument thatmaybe we should have youngerplayers with a handful of older playersto guide them but at this stage it ishard to say what he mix will be nextseason.” Rose said.“The boys who came in gave it agood go but we ended up fifth in thetable which is not the direction wewant to take the club.“We have to say that our opponentswere more consistent than us, that’snot to say they are better players, andthat’s what counted.”Last season’s skipper DannyWaldren confirmed this week he andthe club had parted company, the firstof a number of personnel changesthat are expected to take place in theclose season.

STANSFELD PICKED up theirsecond trophy of the season lastweek when they defeated SevenAcre & Sidcup 2-0 in the final of theHospital Charity Cup at WellingUnited.Despite being without four first teamregulars, that included keeper andcaptain James Bradley, last Wednesdaythe Bermondsey side took the contest toa club who play in the Kent InvictaLeague, one step higher than Stansfeldon the non-league ladder.The Southwark team opened thescoring after 30 minutes when goodmovement in the box allowed BillyShinners to steal in at the far post topowerfully head home a Peter Tarrantfree-kick. Seven Acre started the second halfbrightly, but it wasn't long before the

game fell back into a similar pattern asthe first half, Stansfeld's defencestanding resolute, with Shinners provinga constant menace up front.Stansfeld's pressure eventually paid offwhen Shinners added his and Stansfeld'ssecond goal. The goal came from another set pieceas Shinners lost his marker to head homean Archie Johnson inswinging corner atthe near post.Stansfeld gaffer Lloyd Bradley saidafterwards: "I am absolutely delightedwith that. With all the injuries we hadbefore the game and then losing JamesWade in the warm up, we were forcedinto making huge changes to the team.“The fact that we were playing a teamfrom the top half of the Kent InvictaLeague, we could be forgiven forthinking that we might struggle to get

anything out of the game. But what atremendous performance the boys put in. “They never took a backward step allnight and thoroughly deserved theirvictory. They were an absolute credit tothe club and I am really proud of all of

them. “Adding this Trophy to the KentIntermediate Challenge Shield we wonin April, means this is turning into a verygood season for us.”Last Saturday Stansfeld were back in

league action where they thumpedStaplehurst & Monarchs 8-2.Sam Ryan helped himself to a hat-trick,with Sam Collins and Billy Jolley gettingtwo each in addition to a JesseThackham goal.

STEVE MORISON said it’s“massive” that Millwall will be athome for the second leg of theirLeague One play-off semi-finalagainst Bradford. The Lions were moments away fromfinishing fifth in the table last Sunday,and facing an away trip for the secondleg, before Lee Gregory came on atGillingham to win a penalty deep intoinjury-time that he converted to ensureMillwall and the Bantams swappedpositions. Morison was pleased with how the sideresponded to Mahlon Romeo’s red cardand John Egan’s 92nd-minute leveller.The current captain praised Gregory’scoolness, and he expects The Den to be“rocking” for the return leg againstBradford on Friday, May 20. “It’s massive, we spoke about it beforethe game,” Morison said. “Although weknew we were already in the play-offswe wanted to have the second leg athome. That was our aim. We were verycomfortable until the referee had amoment of madness but luckily Gregskept his cool when he needed to and putthe ball away. It was a great feeling

coming in after the game with anotherwin and knowing we have the second legat home. “Millwall fans are going to come up intheir numbers so that’s fantastic. Theirside will be full as well so it’s going tobe great, the ground will be packed andsome of the lads in the dressing roomwill never have played in grounds withatmospheres like that. “We’ll have a game back at our placethat will be sold out and rocking. It’ll bea great occasion and one that we willenjoy.”Morison’s 21 league goals in 2009-10were crucial to Millwall’s rise to finishthird in the table a set up a play-off semi-final against Huddersfield. After ascoreless draw in the first leg KennyJackett’s side completed the job in thereturn clash in front of more than 15,000fans at The Den. Morison revealed some of the youngermembers of the squad have been askingabout that experience, and the 32-year-old striker has no worries about howplayers such as Jordan Archer, BenThompson and Aiden O’Brien willhandle the pressure. “They all want to know what it’s likewhen I played the last time, and I said,‘It’s amazing, you’ll enjoy it’. The onlydownside is you only enjoy it if you win

it, so hopefully we can do that. “They seem like they don’t think aboutit too much and just go out and play. Youdon’t want nerves to cripple you, but youhave to keep fighting all the way.”Millwall didn’t score in either of theirfixtures against Bradford this season,with a defensive lapse costing them atValley Parade in March when StevenDavies nodded in a 79th-minute winner. Morison said there aren’t any extranerves before the game, but expects theties to be similarly tight. “I’m relaxed, it’s just another game offootball,” Morison stressed. “We gothere in good form and they’re in goodform as well. We’ll prepare right all weekand we’ll go there and try to get a result.“At the end of the day it’s a shootoutover two games, you win them andyou’re in the final. It’s exciting. We gothere full of confidence and we’relooking forward to it. “They’re very similar to us, they’re astrong and physical team with goodquality. The game down at our place wastight as was the game at their place. Weswitched off for one moment and theygot a goal. But we had chances and couldeasily have come away with a point. “We won’t deviate from the way weusually play and we’ll treat it like anormal game.”

THIS WAS a fixture that Millwall fanshad literally been waiting all season for.With a large majority of Sky Bet LeagueOne trips up north, the Lions’ only realaway 'derby' this season was againstGillingham.It was a humid afternoon at Priestfieldwith unbroken sunshine that eventuallybrought the contest to boiling point. It started as a slow burner, but the action

built to a manic last fourteen minutes thatincluded ten minutes injury-time, a red cardand two late goals. Millwall hit the crossbar in the first halfthrough Joe Martin’s deflected effort, butthe game really came to life after the break. Gillingham need to win and hope bothBarnsley and Scunthorpe didn’t, and thatnaturally brought the devil out in Millwallfans. The 1,213 in the away end, and many

more in the home end and executive boxes,ironically cheered when scores from theBarnsley and Scunthorpe games were readout over the PA system. And Millwall increased the home fans’pain in the 55th minute, Aiden O’Briensweeping home his thirteenth goal of theseason after neat work from Chris Taylorand Steve Morison. Gillingham had hardly tested JordanArcher up to that point and it looked like theLions would add to their lead. Then came the start of the late drama.Mahlon Romeo was show a straight redcard for a tackle on Brennan Dickenson andthe defender will now miss the play-offcampaign, despite Millwall’s appeal to haveit overturned. Six minutes of added time was signalledand, with a man advantage, Gillinghamlevelled, John Egan firing home off thecrossbar after a Bradley Dack free-kick hadfound its way to the back post. That goal was no good to the Gills’chances of finishing sixth, but it meantMillwall dropped to fifth to briefly handBradford home advantage in the play-offsemi-final second leg. It stayed that way until the 98th minuteswhen after Archer pumped a hopeful ballforward and substitute Lee Gregory got infront of and was hauled down byDickenson. With the last kick off the game Gregorykept his cool to fire his spot-kick past StuartNelson and send the away fans intoraptures. The goal also meant that, crucially, homeadvantage in the second leg against theBantams was returned to Millwall.

The agony and ecstasy IF YOU were to ask me, along withthe FA Cup, the Football Leagueplay-offs are the best thing aboutfootball. For a neutral, anyway.If your beloved team feature in the

end-of-season lottery then a fortnight ofagony, ecstasy, anxiety and joy are anear certainty. In the blink of an eye,twelve teams have their seasons definedby the kick of a ball, a dodgy decision ora defensive slip-up.A 3-0 victory over Oldham Athletic

on April 30 ensured that Millwall willappear in the League One version thisseason – the seventh time that they willcontest the play-offs since thecompetition’s inception in the late1980s. In the previous six, the Lionshave suffered differing emotions, datingback to 1991.

The historyThe club's first foray into theunknown came at the end of the1990-91 season, after they hadfinished fifth in Division Two underthe stewardship of Bruce Rioch.Teddy Sheringham's 33 league goals

(by far and away the best total of the year– Alex Rae was next on the list with ten)helped to set up a semi-final tie withBrighton and Hove Albion. Their finalposition in the table secured a second legat home, meaning that the advantage waswith the Lions as the play-offs got going.However, things didn't go to plan.

Despite Paul Stephenson's eighteenth-minute opener, the Seagulls rattled in fourunanswered goals, effectively winningthe tie before the second leg had evenbegun. John McGinlay's sixteenth-

minute strike reduced the aggregatearrears at The Den, but Brighton addedtwo more to ensure their place in the final,winning 6-2 over two legs.

More heartbreakA RE-STRUCTURING of theleague pyramid saw the Lions'promoted' to Division One(effectively still Division Two with theintroduction of the Premier League)at the end of the next season and, in1993-94, they were presented withtheir second shot at the play-offs afterMick McCarthy's side had finishedin third place in the league.This time, Rae topped the charts with

thirteen goals as the Lions prepared for atwo-legged affair with Derby County.But, again, despite the superiority inleague position, they were dumped out inthe semi-finals. After a 2-0 defeat at the Baseball

Ground, Greg Berry's consolation on thehour was the only high point on anotherwise miserable night at The Den, asDerby won 3-1 and 5-1 on aggregate,bringing Millwall's season to a crushinghalt.

Latics scrape throughAFTER RELEGATION to thethird tier in 1996, the Lions hadanother play-off campaign in 1999-00, as a fifth-place finish under clublegends Keith Stevens and AlanMcLeary meant a last-four clashwith Wigan Athletic.The first leg in south London finished

goalless, meaning it was all to play forat the JJB Stadium four days later.

However, yet again, any thoughts of aWembley appearance would remainjust that after Darren Sheridan’s free-kick found its way past Tony Warner viathe legs of David Livermore, sendingWigan to the decider and leave theLions in despair. Of course, that would prove to be a

blessing in disguise as the followingyear Mark McGhee's side romped to theDivision Two title and in their firstseason back in the second tier, theyfound themselves in the play-offs for afourth time, after finishing fourth in thetable.

Lions blow Premier chanceTHE MEANT Millwall would meetBirmingham City. Loanee DionDublin played the role of hero inthe first leg, as his powerful headerten minutes from time cancelledout Brian Hughes' opener, settingup the second leg perfectly. With a talented side and a home leg intheir favour, Thursday, May 2, 2002presented the Lions with their bestchance yet to make the promised landof the Premier League.However, on a night that turned

extremely sour post-match, Dublinturned villain – his shocking miss in thesecond half paving the way for SternJohn to slam home an injury-timewinner after Milwall had failed toadequately deal with a corner from theBlues. That night sadly marked the beginningof the end for a highly gifted Lions side;slowly but surely, the majority of itmade their way elsewhere, leaving theLions to slip into League One in 2006.

The Jackett yearsAFTER FLIRTING withrelegation, Kenny Jackett'smanagement handed the club achance to make a return to theChampionship in 2009 after theyhad ended the campaign fifth inthe table, to set up a semi-finalshowdown with Leeds United.The Lions won a nervy first leg

when Neil Harris' 71st-minute strikesent three sides of the 13,228 crowdinside The Den into raptures. Fivedays later, Millwall made it to theirfirst play-off final at the fifth attemptthanks to the most unlikely of heroes– Jimmy Abdou.Lucciano Bechio had given Leeds

the lead in the 53rd minute, levellingthe aggregate score, but in the 74thminute, a cross from David Martinfound its way to Abdou, who strokedthe ball past Casper Ankergren in theUnited goal.The final whistle blew to jubilant

scenes in Yorkshire and southLondon – finally, the Lions had laidtheir semi-final hoodoo to rest.Could they go one better and win thefinal?

Wembley lows followed by highsThe answer would be no. On asweltering hot day at Wembley,Scunthorpe United edged outMillwall in a classic thatfinished 3-2.Despite Gary Alexander's wonder

goal levelling the scores at 1-1 inthe 37th minute and the same playermaking it 2-1 two minutes later,Matt Sparrow and Martyn Woolfordscored in the last 20 minutes to endthe Championship dream. However, they would return toWembley just twelve months laterand right the wrongs of the previousyear. A third-place finish meant a semi-final with Huddersfield Town. Aftera goalless draw in Yorkshire, SteveMorison and Paul Robinson sent theLions through to a secondconsecutive final. There they met the side that theyhad finished the regular seasonagainst – Swindon Town. Theafternoon was nervy, edgy, jitteryand emotionally charged, butRobinson's goal in the 39th minutesecured the trophy for the Lions andpromotion to the Championship. Atthe sixth attempt, they had finallydone it.

The futureTHE 2015/16 season will seeMillwall compete in theirseventh play-off campaign – canthey repeat the achievement of2010, or will the hoodoo return?

Robinson scores against Huddersfield

Neil Harriscelebratesthe win overSwindon atWembley in 2010


MILLWALL RIGHT-backMahlon Romeo will miss theplay-off campaign after hereceived a three-game ban forhis red card at Gillingham lastSunday. Romeo had started eighteenconsecutive games after Neil Harrishanded him his debut againstWalsall in February. Carlos Edwards, who last started forthe Lions in the 2-2 draw atSwindon on March 12, when heplayed at left-back, will likely beRomeo’s replacement at Bradfordthis Sunday. Tony Craig and SidNelson are other options. Lee Gregory, who came off thebench to score a 98th-minute winneragainst the Gills, should be in

contention for a starting spot afterproving his fitness followingsurgery on his hernias. Bradford striker Billy Clarke missesout with a fractured cheekbone.There are also doubts over on-loanWest Ham defender Reece Burke,while James Hanson was having ascan this week on a calf problem. Phil Parkinson’s side have wonseven consecutive games at homewhere they also haven’t conceded agoal in over two months. The records of both sides in 2016are almost identical: Both were on34 points at the beginning of theyear, both have won fourteen games,with Millwall drawing one more tofinish a point ahead of Bradford inthe League One table.

MATCH PREVIEW: Sky Bet League One play-off semi-final first leg

Behind Enemy LinesMILLWALL HAVE metBradford four times in the last twoseasons, losing two and drawingtwo games at The Den. Both fixtures this season between thesides were close, a scoreless draw athome in October before the Lions lost1-0 at Valley Parade in March. With the tie so difficult to call, Newscalled on someone with insideknowledge of the club. Simon Parkerreports on the Bantams for Telegraph& Argus, and we asked him aboutwhat Millwall can expect in the nexttwo games.

What’s the feeling in Bradfordabout meeting Millwall? I think there was almost an inevitablyabout it that they were going to meet.If you look at the two games betweenthem this season there wasn’t a lot inthem. It was like two heavyweightscoming together, a war of attrition. A lot of people think it will besimilar, a 1-0 on aggregate. It’s goingto be whoever blinks first. I doubt it’llbe a 7-6, let’s put it that way. Here there is general excitement tobe in the play-offs because at the endof January they didn’t look like they’dbe anywhere near it.

Bradford were tenth on New Year’sDay. What’s changed since? The issue with Bradford at thebeginning of the season was theseinjuries they had, they were quite bigones. They lost (former Millwallplayer) Felipe Morais with a cruciate,he’s the main winger. They brought in Paul Anderson whohad been released by Ipswich. Theygot him a week before the seasonstarted and he wasn’t fit. Then whenhe gets fit he breaks his leg at the endof September. They’ve had those two out virtuallythe whole season. They brought instriker Steven Davies who missedthree months. Since they got him backin January they’ve had a more settledside. And they’ve had this ridiculouslygood defensive record as well.

Do they have any fresh concernsthis weekend? Morais didn’t come back until Marchbut the injuries cleared in the new year,although Billy Clarke is out with a

fractured cheekbone he picked upagainst Chesterfield last weekend. They left a couple of people out onSunday because they had knocks. Reece Burke is a doubt but should henot make it Nathan Clarke has been avery good understudy. Two years ago,he captained Leyton Orient in a play-off final. He’s very experienced.

How much of an advantage isBradford’ recent cup experience?Several of the players have alreadymentioned that. A lot of the squadwere involved in the cup run last year(when they beat Millwall, Chelsea andSunderland), in the one-off games, thebig occasion and crowds. The playersare up for it. They’re looking at this asa three-game cup competition now. I’m not saying it’s going to be a bigdifference but it’s got to be some kindof advantage. It’s not going to be alienterritory to them even though theyhaven’t been in the play-offs for threeseasons.

What can Millwall fans expect to seefrom Bradford in terms of style? It’s not as direct as people make out.People will say, ‘Bradford just lump itlong to (James) Hanson.’ They don’t.They have a way of playing wherethey do look to hit Hanson with theangled ball. They play with twowingers, but they can play through themiddle. They’ve got ball-playingcentral midfielders. It’s worth mentioning Lee Evans,who’s on loan from Wolves. He’s beenvery good all season but then suddenlystarted scoring and getting into the boxmore as well. They’ve got Josh Cullenwho came in on loan from West Hamin January who’s a great sittingmidfielder. He allows Evans to getforward more so Evans has been muchmore of a threat since Cullen’ arrival. They also do keep things really tight.They have their two banks of four andhave been tough to score againstrecently.

If Millwall were to focus on stoppinganyone, who would it be? I would think Hanson, if he’s onform. At this level he can bully anydefender in the division. And probablyEvans in midfield. He and Cullenmake things tick. Evans is alwayslooking to get on the ball. I thinkyou’ve got to get on him a little bit.

THERE’S A framedphotograph in the reception ofMillwall’s training groundshowing the squad celebratingthe 1-0 win over Swindon in2010, and Tony Craig points toit indicating repeating it thisseason is all that interests him. This will be Craig’s fifth play-offcampaign, but he says it will meannothing unless Millwall are winnersat Wembley on May 29. A year before Millwall’s LeagueOne play-off final win over theRobins, Craig was on the losingside as Kenny Jackett’s side weredefeated by Scunthorpe. In 2013, he was part of aBrentford team beaten in theLeague One play-off decider,watching current team-mates ByronWebster and Ed Upson celebratingon the pitch Yeovil reaching thesecond tier for the first time in theirhistory. And to complete his record ofhaving lost at every stage, he wason the Bees bench for their semi-final defeat to Middlesbrough inlast season’s Championship play-offs.Craig is one of four players in thecurrent squad, along with DavidForde, Jimmy Abdou and SteveMorison, to have featured in theplay-offs for Millwall. The Lions’ success so far thisseason has been based on blendingthat experience with an influx ofyouth, with the likes of BenThompson, Mahlon Romeo, AidenO’Brien and Jordan Archer playingsignificant roles in the league runsince Christmas, which has echoesof the form under Jackett in 2010.

BBrraaddffoorrdd CCIIttyy vv MMiillllwwaallll Sunday, May 15 Kick-off: 12.15pmMATCH PREVIEW: Sky Bet League One play-off semi-final first leg

FORMER MILLWALLcaptain Alan Dunne has urgedthis year’s Lions side to “haveno regrets” in the play-offs. A place in the final at Wembley

Stadium is on offer as Neil Harris'side take on Bradford City in a two-legged semi-final – and Dunnebelieves it’s crucial that Millwallstick to the game plan ahead ofSunday's first leg at Valley Parade.Asked what message he would

deliver in a pre-match teamtalk,Dunne said: “Do the things that gotyou there. Have no regrets. Youmight only get this chance once.Don't look back at the end of the 90minutes and regret anything. Don'tregret not giving your all, not beingfocussed and don't try to be a hero.You have the strengths to go outthere and hurt teams.”

Along with ex-Lion GaryAlexander, the former right-backwas in the crowd to watch the Lionstake on Gillingham last Sunday –and he was impressed with what hesaw.Dunne said: “Other than the heat,

which was incredible, it was nice togo and see the boys and be insomething new to me, which wasbeing in the away stand among the

supporters. Some of the shoutsfrom the fans made me laugh! Butit was nice to see Millwall from adifferent angle and see the passionfrom the fans first hand.“As far as the game goes, it was

pretty much an end-of-seasongame. Gillingham looked likethey'd given up, even though theycould've still reached the play-offs.I thought Millwall were the betterteam and deserved to win the game– they didn't come out of secondgear. It's nice to beat Gillingham!”

Dunne also spoke of hisadmiration for the current squad –most notably the club’s YoungPlayer of the Year Ben Thompsonand Player of the Year JordanArcher: “I've been back a few timesrecently and every time I have I'vebeen impressed with what I'veseen,” Dunne said. “Ben has reallyimpressed me, as has Lee Gregory.Jordan Archer has done really well,too.”“I see a lot of positives – credit toNeil Harris, he has got the best outof those players. The team looksstrong in all areas. They have twobig centre-halves, goals up front,pace on the wings and depth in thesquad – all the bases are covered.It's looking good for the play-offs.”The former Lions defender

praised his old boss Harris,describing the man-managementskills that have been key to securinga play-off place in his first fullseason in charge. “He has done exceptionally well

to get the team into the play-offs,”Dunne said. “Something that Neilhas got is the ability to get everysingle player playing for him,working for him – that's a skill thatother Millwall managers in the pasthaven't had. His man managementwith his players is a strength. He'sbrought things out of players whoweren't doing it last year or the yearbefore.”Millwall face a tough test in theirattempts to reach the final againstthe Bantams, but Dunne feels theDen faithful could provide theboost needed to drag the Lions overthe line Dunne said: “Both teams probablywanted to avoid each other, butMillwall have the momentum andhave the second leg at home, whichis a big factor.“If they can get something up atBradford and bring them back toThe Den – we all know whatthat place can be like. Therecould be nearly 20,000people there and they'llact as the twelfth man.”

Dunne: Harrisgets the bestfrom everyone

done really well this season, stood upand been counted. “This is also a time to enjoy it as

well, you could be at the other end ofthe spectrum fighting againstrelegation. To be fighting for

promotion through the play-offs is avaluable learning curve for them anda great experience for them. “At the moment they’re fearingnothing. “It’s a great occasion but the play-offs are for winners so we’re certainlydrumming that into ourselves.”Craig has played a total of seventeenminutes since returning from the kneeinjury he suffered against theBantams in October. He might not be in manager NeilHarris’ starting side next Sunday, buthe will still play an important rolebefore the 12.15pm kick-off as hedescribed the process for the squadleading up to the fixture. “I do my talking before the game,”Craig explains. “During the week youlisten to the gaffer and DavidLivermore and Skins (JustinSkinner). They say: ‘This is the waywe’re going to play, these are theirstrengths and these are theirweaknesses.’ “They do what they have to do andwe go through the structure a coupleof days before the game with thestarting XI. We know what’s going tocome at us. “On the day of the game that’s whenmyself and Steve and others starttalking and it gets the adrenalinpumping. “Some boys are quiet before agame, some boys like to talk andexpress themselves. People havedifferent styles but mine is to talkbefore games. “Some people will listen to theirmusic, be calm before the storm.People like me, I have to be talkingand shouting and getting thatadrenalin flowing through my body.That gets me through the game. Andwhether I’m sitting on the bench forthese two games, so be it. “For me it’s about helping get thebest from the boys.”“The focus has always been therethis season. We’re in a knockoutcompetition so we’ve got to be on ourgame every day on the training pitchand dedicate our time to gettingthrough these games. We’ll go upthere and give a good account ofourselves and we’re all lookingforward to it.”

MILLWALL MANAGER NeilHarris says he is proud of hisplayers for reaching the play-offs. The Lions face Bradford at ValleyParade on Sunday hoping to bring apositive result back to The Den forthe return fixture the followingFriday. And Harris is anticipating “twocracking atmospheres” when thesides clash for a place in the LeagueOne play-off final. “It’s nervous anticipation,” Harris

said. “I’ve a lot of pride in the playersfor what they have achieved thisseason. “The thought process is that we’veto prepare for two really thoughgames coming up. We know that andhave no problem with thatwhatsoever. “We know they will be reallycompetitive battles. We’re reallylooking forward to them, they aregoing to be two crackingatmospheres.”More than 2,000 Lions fans areexpected to make the trip north forthe early kick-off time of 12.15pm. Harris said supporters have been

“phenomenal” this season – and hewants his players to reward them inthe play-off campaign. “It’s great to have that supportlevel,” Harris said. “The support thisyear home and away has beenphenomenal. “They’ll be right behind us at theweekend and it’s up to us to makesure we compete in the game, give agood account of ourselves and give areal Millwall performance. “We also want to ensure we’refirmly in a good place going into thesecond leg at home.” Millwall dramatically snatchedfourth place from Bradford in the

League One table when Lee Gregorycame off the bench to score a 98th-minute winner at Gillingham lastweekend, and Harris is pleased to beat The Den on Friday week. “I’m more relaxed being at home inthe second leg,” Harris said. “I thinkany manager would be saying thesame thing. To me there is a slightpsychological advantage being athome for the second game.”Harris will be without right-backMahlon Romeo on Sunday afterMillwall’s appeal against the red cardhe was shown at Priestfield Stadiumlast weekend was rejected by the FAon Tuesday.

Skipper hopesfor a leg up STEVE MORISON has urged hisside to bring a positive result backto The Den for the second leg of theplay-off semi-final againstBradford. Millwall were in a similar position tonow in 2010 when they facedHuddersfield in the first leg having lost1-0 to the Terriers when they had met inthe league at The Den. Millwall got a scoreless draw awaybefore winning the second leg 2-0 athome. Bradford defeated Millwall 1-0 inMarch, and Morison isn’tunderestimating the size of the task. “Huddersfield were a tough a team andthey were tough games but it doesn’t gettougher than Bradford,” Morison said.“It’s a difficult place to go.” “We gave a good account of ourselveswhen we went there earlier in the seasonand only lost late on, so hopefully wecan turn the tables this time. “We want to get it back to The Den ina good position.”

MILLWALL CLUB captain TonyCraig has paid tribute to SteveMorison for the job he has donesince taking over skipper duties lastNovember. Morison was given the armband byLions boss Neil Harris after Craiginjured his knee against this weekend’sopponents Bradford at the end ofOctober. The injury ruled him out for almost sixmonths before Craig returned to the firstteam against Bury and then came on forthe dramatic final stages againstGillingham last weekend. Defender Craig knows it will be toughto regain a starting spot, but was full ofpraise for the role Morison has played. “Since Steve’s been the captain he’sdone exceptionally well,” Craig said.“He has taken on the responsibilitybrilliantly and I think it’s brought him onas a player and a person. “The gaffer’s got to pick the team, he’sgot a lot of decisions to make. We’vehad a very settled side recently.”
