EditorialThe EU - shall we

stay or shall we go?THE SOUTHWARKChamber of

Commerce should becongratulated on trying to bring

local businesses together to get a clearmandate on where we stand on theupcoming referendum. The 63 per cent vote in favour of staying inthe European Union is from a relatively fewnumber of local businesses that came to theSouthwark Chamber of Commerce debate lastweek, and cannot be considered an outrightindication of how every business feels acrossthe borough. However, the debate last Thursday atLewisham and Southwark College inWaterloo was lively, with a good panel ofguests that passionately put their stance for oragainst very well. Like all of the debates that have beenbroadcast on TV and radio channels for thelast few weeks, the statistics by each campcontradicted one another on several occasions.Like all people across the country the businessmen and women at this debate knew thatmuch of the discussion would and shouldevolve around economics. Can Britain dobetter in or out of a large economic tradeorganisation, that many feel is eating away atour national sovereignty? On the night, the stay camp managed toconvince the people attending that the risk tojump into the unknown waters of going italone was just too much. Businessman MarkGlover and MEP Seb Dance painted a verybleak picture of a future out of the EU. Theysaid we would struggle to get large trade dealswithout the markets of our Europeanneighbours. Mr Glover said that many of theinternational headquarters of large firms basedin Southwark and the surrounding area mightmove with no guarantees that others wouldconsider London in the future. This he pointedout would have an effect on the smallerbusinesses in the borough that service thisworkforce.The out camp talked of opening new marketsacross the globe with many of our formercolonies and new emerging markets withmore ability to tap into foreign workers. Most polls do show that at the moment weare split and many find it difficult to reallyquantify the arguments being forwarded byboth camps. For some it is pretty much astraight forward ideological debate on being aEuropean or a Briton, but most want to knowwhat will be best for them and their families.Unfortunately, no one knows for sure. This is a massive decision that PrimeMinister David Cameron put to the people.While some of the national papers have comeout in favour of one or the other camp, it isnever been the job of this independent-ownedlocal paper to tell people how to vote. Our jobis to inform and present the facts andarguments; On this occasion the coverage isnot extensive, as it is definitely more of anational / international issue, than a local issue.But we would as always encourage everyoneto register to vote the deadline is June 8 – justdays away. One thing is for sure, if you don’tvote you are abstaining from one of thebiggest decisions in a generation. You can register to vote online atwww.gov.uk/register-to-vote. Deadline is 7thJune. You can also call the council on 0207525 7373 to check to see if you are alreadyregistered.

‘OVER A HUNDRED’ youthsgathered on Jamaica Road late atnight on Tuesday, May 31“screaming” and “kicking” carsbefore being dispersed by police. Police were called shortly after 10pmto the busy Bermondsey road followingreports of a large number of youths andanti-social behaviour. Nick Sellers, an eyewitness, said: “I gothome to see a lot of youths congregatingon the street near BermondseyUnderground, where I live opposite. “There was a lot of confusion andpanic amongst them, but I couldn't makeout what they were saying. “A couple of them ran into surroundingstreets behind the Underground stationacross the road from our flat.

“I go into the shops in the street quiteregularly but I've never seen that. Quitefrightening really. I just can't understandwhy so many of them were hangingaround in the first place. “We're not talking a small group, we'retalking at least 100 people if not more.” It is not yet clear why the large numberof youths came to the area. Ana Duarte, another eyewitness, said:“I’m not quite sure why everyone washere on the first place. There werehundreds of teenagers. “They were just screaming and in themiddle of the road for about 30minbefore police came. They kicked somecars and a bus. “All very nuts. And I just wonderwhere the parents of these kids were? Asalmost all of them looked undereighteen.”The police have told the News that noarrests have been made and that enquiresare ongoing.

Armed rapid policeresponse team to beused in SouthwarkSOUTHWARK HAS been namedas one of the six “priorityboroughs” where armed rapid-response teams will be deployed totackle gun fights.Operation Viper was launched lastweek by Met Police commissioner, SirBernard Hogan-Howe, in reaction to aseventeen per cent “spike” in gun crimebetween January and May 2016,compared with the same period lastyear. So far two people have beenmurdered with guns this year.The 50-strong team of armed officers,led by Trident and Gang CrimeCommand with organised crimedetectives, will be available to respondto incidents where guns are fired.Operation Viper officers will alsocarry out “high-visibility armedpatrols”, as well as weapons sweeps,intelligence-led stop and search, andpro-active number plate recognitionoperations. Viper officers will also takeover duties for targeting knownfirearms offenders, making arrests andexecuting search warrants. Other boroughs under the Vipersquads’ remit are Hackney, Lambeth,Brent, Newham and Tower Hamlets;subject to change depending on gun-crime trends in other boroughs.Commander Duncan Ball, of ScotlandYard, said: “Viper gives us renewedenergy in our fight to take guns off thestreet. We are nowhere near the levels[of gun crime] five years ago, but it’sour job to keep it that way. We areseeing that at least half of theseshootings are related to drugs and wewill work closely with colleaguesacross the Met on that.”Sir Hogan-Howe said: "Firearm use isthankfully still rare in London andrarely affects those not involved incrime. But I am very concerned aboutthe recent increase and we aredetermined to stop it. Our officers willuse all their powers to take on thegunmen and those that supply them.”

A ROTHERHITHE adult carehome for over-65s is “no longer fitfor purpose” and proposals havebeen made to move the facility tenmiles away to Beckenham,according to its owners. Ann Moss Specialist Care Unit issaid to “need more modern andspecialist mental health services” andproposals have been made to move toChelsham House, a unit of BethlemRoyal Hospital.The care home on Ann Moss Way isrun by South London and MaudsleyNHS Foundation Trust (SLaM) andcares for thirteen Southwark residentssuffering from mental healthconditions such as dementia.

A spokesperson for SLaM said: “Nodecisions have been made and we arein discussions with NHS SouthwarkCCG, which commissions the serviceon behalf of Southwark patients. “The trust will discuss the proposalwith all the patients affected, and theirfamilies and carers, as part of a carefuland meaningful engagement exercise. “We would document their needsand, should this proposal go ahead, wewould review with them how best tosupport them in a transition to a newenvironment.”If the proposals are agreed, thepatients would have access to newfacilities such as en suiteaccommodation as well as all theresources at the hospital includingclinical experts. Moving elderly suffers of dementiacan pose health risks, however, due toa sudden change in environment.

Caroline Abrahams, Charity Directorof Age UK, said: "While taking actionagainst poor standards in care is vital,we know that moving vulnerable, frailolder people can pose a risk to theirhealth and well-being. “The disruption for people livingwith dementia can be particularly acuteif it takes them away from theirfamiliar surroundings and carers. “Whenever a service closes it isabsolutely vital that the welfare ofthose receiving care is paramount andevery precaution must be taken tomake sure that the process is managedsafely. “The NHS has a duty to protect thewelfare of all the older people in thesecircumstances and make sure they areable to move to a new facility that cansafely meet their needs and as near aspossible to their families andcommunity.”

FERRIES COULD help the publicget across the Thames as the City ofLondon officially announced theclosure of Tower Bridge fromOctober 1 for three months. The 122-year-old bridge will close thiswinter to vehicles for the entire time butopen for pedestrains for all but threeweekends so that vital engineering workscan take place. Around 40,000 people and 21,000vehicles cross the bridge every daymaking it a critical connection in crossingthe Thames. Its closure will mean ferries could bedrafted in to help thousands of membersof the public get across safely withouthaving to take lengthy diversions. Chris Hayward, Chairman of thePlanning and Transport Committee, said:“This decision to close Tower Bridge tovehicles has not been taken lightly, andthis course of action has been taken afterextensive consultation and planning inconjunction with numerous stakeholders. “We will use this time to repair,refurbish, and upgrade London’s mosticonic bridge, which has gone withoutsignificant engineering works for morethan thirty-five years.

“We will work hard to minimisedisruption to both pedestrians and motorvehicles, and the bridge’s viewingwalkways and exhibitions will stay openfor the entirety of the works.”Coinciding with the Tooley Streetclosure to eastbound traffic, the closurewill add to a growing list of trafficproblems residents will have to face.Leon Daniels, Managing Director ofSurface Transport at TfL, said: “We’vebeen working closely with the City ofLondon to minimise the impact of thevital refurbishment of Tower Bridge andto ensure that Londoners have the traveladvice they need. “Our advice to those traveling in thearea is to check before they travel and toplan an alternative route or allow moretime for their journeys as roads will bebusier than usual.”The works on the bridge will be paid forby the Bridge House Estate, a charitabletrust, and carried out primarily by BAMNuttall, a British based civil engineeringcontractor.

EIGHTIES POP star Paul Youngwill play at this year’s BermondseyCarnival, an annual day of musicand family activities that attractsthousands to Southwark Park.Young topped the charts in 1983 withWherever I Lay My Hat (That’s MyHome), the first in a string of top 40singles. The Brit Award-winner wasassociated with the ‘blue-eyed soul’genre, and sung the opening lines to theBand Aid hit Do They Know It'sChristmas?. “In my opinion Paul Young is a Britishlegend, he has always been my top fivewish-list of artists to appear at theBermondsey Carnival, and this year Ifinally succeeded,” said Phil Burkett ofBermondsey Beat, the organisation thathas managed the carnival’s main stage forthe last eighteen years. “Paul will bringpeople to Bermondsey and SouthwarkPark who have never visited before and Iam sure that Southwark will love him.” Originally founded in 1900 to raisefunds for Bermondsey victims of the

Boer War, the carnival was reintroducedby local families it in the early 1990sand is now supported by SouthwarkCouncil. Twelve thousand peopleattended last summer – its largestaudience to date. Previous performersinclude Steve Harley and CockneyRebel, Chas and Dave, and The RealThing. “This event brings people back towhere they grew up – you seegenerations of families sitting on thegrass having a picnic,” said Burkett.“People who moved out of the areayears ago come back home, and thisdoesn't happen often. It’s also great tosee people who have not visitedSouthwark Park before walking aroundenjoying themselves.”Joining Young in this year’s line-up islocally based reggae group Indika,Motown trio The Aim, as well as thereturn of Kinetika Bloco – aperformance group of young musiciansand dancers – for a carnival parade.Bermondsey Carnival will take placeat Southwark Park on Saturday, July 2.For more information visitwww.southwark.gov.uk/southwarkpresents

THE FOUNDERS of two trendyPeckham restaurants joinedforces this weekend, not in thekitchen but at the alter. The people behind Spanishrestaurant Miss Tapas and newTaiwanese restaurant Mr Bao weremarried at a church ceremony inSeville, southern Spain, onSaturday, May 28. The foodie twosome – real namesFrank Yeung (Mr Bao) and BlancaRowe (Miss Tapas), changing hersurname to Yeung – met, aptly, in arestaurant a few years ago. The pairgot chatting and bonded over theirshared interests. They moved toPeckham as a couple and in 2015co-founded Miss Tapas onChoumert Road. Mr Bao, with itsspeciality menu of steamed buns,opened on Rye Lane in January ofthis year, founded by Yeung and hisbusiness partner Nick Birkett. “It’s been mind-blowing really,150 people joined us,” said Frank,speaking to the News at the airportwaiting for his plane back to theUK. “We brought the staff from bothrestaurants because we’ve allbecome really close.” The foodie power couple followedtheir church ceremony with a “bigparty” said Frank, and theycelebrated with a fitting amount offood: “Canapés, lots of Spanishjambon, tapas, then a three coursemeal. And we had a big Englishwedding cake – all the UK guestsreally enjoyed that.” According to Frank, beingrestaurant-owners is not an issue forthe pair – in fact it helps theirrelationship. “It’s not at all difficultbeing in the same industry. We lovethe same things, especially eatingout of course, trying out newrestaurants and going back to ourold favourites,” he said. “And werun on the same schedule. For somecouples it’s hard if one of them is inthe industry, with the late hours, butwith us we’re both on the sametimetable and we make sure we takethe same days off.” Peckham residents expressedhappy surprise on Twitter after a

sign was left on the door of MissTapas announcing the wedding –many had not known the tworestaurants were linked. JessBrammar said: “This is amazing!Had no idea Peckham had such alovely foodie couple in our midst!

Congrats guys.”The small business owners onlytook four days off for celebrations,leaving the UK on Friday, May 27and returning on Tuesday, May 31,both reopening their restaurantssoon after.

This would come as part of widerefforts to build 20,000 new homes,two new primary schools and turn theroad itself into a “modernboulevard”. Councillor Mark Williams,Southwark Council’s cabinet memberfor regeneration and new homes,said: “As part of Southwark’s workto tackle the housing crisis we have

been consulting with local residents,businesses and community groupsalong the Old Kent Road for the pastyear on how we can significantlyregenerate the area. “This work culminates in thepublication of this Old Kent RoadArea Action Plan which sets out howand where we expect 20,000 newhomes, 5,000 new jobs, and newparks, schools and health facilities tobe built over the next 15-20 years. “We have listened to local residents

and are clearly setting out that wewant to extend the Bakerloo Linedown the Old Kent Road with twonew stations, in addition to the newOverground Station at Surrey CanalStation. “We also want to see significantimprovements to the Old Kent Roaditself including bus lanes, cycle lanes,more and better crossings forpedestrians and the creation of a treelined boulevard from the Lewishamborder all the way to Tower Bridge

Road.”The proposed locations of thestations “may change and will besubject to further feasibility work”but are provisionally placed with onenear Burgess Park and the other nearToys “R” Us.

Lambeth red-facedafter tax demand toSouthwark charity

LAMBETH COUNCIL haveapologised to a Southwark charityafter a demand for council tax wassent by debt collectors on theirbehalf despite it not being based intheir borough. The East Dulwich CommunityCentre received a demand for£2,486.71 on May 12 from Equita, adebt collection firm, prompting anintervention from East Dulwichcouncillor James Barber. Councillor Barber wrote to LambethCouncil to ensure the error wascorrected and for an explanation forhow it happened.Cllr Barber said: “I was incredulousat Lambeth Council calling in debtcollectors to chase an East Dulwichcharity for an address they clearly hadnothing to do with. Trueincompetence. “The last thing trustees need is thiskind of street and hassle when they areworking so diligently to provide alocal service at the East DulwichCommunity Centre for so many localgroups. “It felt daft that I had to step in as anEast Dulwich councillor and directlyapproach Lambeth Council ChiefExecutive to get this finally sorted out. “Lambeth Council at first couldn’tunderstand how they could have madethis error.”Lambeth Council have said the errorwas “administrative” and is possiblydue to confusion between a “DulwichCommunity Centre” in their borough. Graham Kent, vice chair of the EastDulwich Community CentreAssociation, said: “Though as a smallcharity we are very relieved that thismatter has been settled and are verygrateful to our MP and councillors fortheir support and assistance, we doworry that a liability order could beobtained in these circumstances. Ithink this needs to be urgentlyinvestigated.”A Lambeth Council spokesman saidthe debt has now been cancelled, aninvestigation was carried out and aletter of apology to the communitycentre was being written.

MANAGERS OF beauty salonsaround Peckham Rye station havesaid the council’s plans to move theirshops will “ruin” their businesses.The six salons and beauty shops at thejunction of Blenheim Grove and RyeLane face being displaced to a new rowof shops in Bournemouth Close,following the council’s decision todemolish the Peckham Rye Arcade infavour of a station square.The News reported in April thatfamilies at the Atwell Estate are alsoangry at the prospect of SouthwarkCouncil demolishing their garages, inorder for the thirteen new units to beplaced directly at the bottom of theirgardens.The council recently submitted aplanning application for the ‘PeckhamPalms’ proposal, which suggestdemolishing the Bournemouth Closegarages and replacing them with thirteencommercial units for the salons, as wellas new cafés and bars. Omo Rhuasa, manager of the DivineDestiny hair salon said: “I don’t like theidea at all. We have a really strongcommunity here already, and we makemoney by people coming in and

socialising and deciding to buy things asthey walk past.“These salons are famous all over thecountry. People in Birmingham andLiverpool come here. People won’tnotice us if we’re over in BournemouthClose. We have not been told if we willbe offered compensation either.“I understand why the Atwell Estateresidents are upset. They don’t want tohave loads of noise from businesses right

by their houses. It’s a residential area.”The 55-year-old also said the councilshould be more focused on buildinghomes and spending money on lookingafter homeless people.The manager of Hair & Beauty AfricanBeauty Products, who did not want to benamed, also said it would “put them outof business”.“I think the council have been fair intrying to keep us informed of what their

plans are, but this could put us out ofbusiness. None of the salon owners wantthis to happen,” she said.“We would quite like to be able tomove into the new square when it’s built,but that doesn’t look likely.”The planning application submitted bySouthwark Council, working with TreeShepherd Architects, says the PeckhamPalms development would “transforman under-used garage site into a vibrantnew retail community”.It says the thirteen shops would featurea wide, unobstructed roof to create a“generous covered arcade” with groupsof palm trees for a “green” “semi-indoor” environment.Seventy-three-year-old Shirley Neild,the Atwell Estate’s TRA chair, said in

April that the new shops would leave theestate’s residents with “nowhere topark”.She said: “What if one of us needs anambulance or a fire engine needs to geton to the estate? With all the shops linedup there will be no way for emergencyvehicles to get to our homes.”The residents say they have asked themfor new security gates at the entrance tothe estate, so people “drinking ormessing around” won’t be able to get in.“We also asked if they will givelicences to the bars that won’t let themstay open too late, but we were told they‘couldn’t promise us anything’,” Shirleysaid.Cllr Mark Williams, cabinet memberfor regeneration and new homes, said:“In the beginning Peckham Palms was acreative solution to help the many hairand beauty businesses around the stationfind new premises during theconstruction. “However, we now have a moreambitious vision and we want to not onlymake sure the businesses relocating toPeckham Palms not only get the fullbusiness and marketing support theyneed to get their customers to move withthem but grow and become the numberone spot for afro-Caribbean hair andbeauty in London.”

surgery but, by using the robot, a surgeonloses his touch. The 3D model returns mytouch and eliminates an element of

guesswork.”Guy’s and St Thomas’ has two da Vincisurgical robots and carries out the mostrobotic operations in the UK – with morethan 400 cases a year, making it the largestsurgical robotics programme in Britain.This wasn’t the first time staff at Guy’shave utilised 3D printing, havingsuccessfully transplanted a kidney froman adult to a child last year using thetechnology.

No communicationfrom Post OfficeJUST WHAT has Walworthdone to deserve the loss of adecent postal service? Not content with the threatenedloss of the Crown Post Office onthe Walworth Road and itsreplacement with an inferiorfranchise plus the threatenedclosure of the Sorting Office onCrampton Street and having totrek over to the Bricklayers Armsjust to pick up a parcel, we nowfind that two of our not very manypost boxes on the Walworth Roadhave been closed - just like that. It would not be so bad if therewas ever anyone that you couldapproach at the Royal Mail or thePost Office to ask about gettingthem re-opened but any dialoguewith either is almost completelyimpossible – the Post Officerefused to attend any localmeetings about the franchise ideaeven when asked by theCommunity Council. Any help for those wanting topost a letter in Walworth would bevery welcome! Jeremy Leach, Chair WalworthSociety

Where are kidssupposed to play?THE NEWFisher ground wasa popular place for the localkids before the new ground wasbuilt, it was left open and thekids thought they could play onit. If 50 people played on it for hoursSouthwark Council should bear inmind that local kids need a place toplay football that's free. Kids playing football is better thenkids getting in to trouble. The new park has houses and flats

next to it, so the kids will beallowed to play football on it Mrs Heather, Rotherhithe

Walk to schoolLIVING STREETS’Walk toSchool Week is over for anotheryear and we’d like to thankeveryone in Southwark whocontributed to making it amassive success. Over 2,000 pupils from over 70classrooms in Southwark joined inwith pupils across the UK to enjoythe many benefits of walking toschool. We know that schools becomehealthier and happier places whenchildren walk to school. The ChiefMedical Officer recommends thatchildren are active for 60 minutes aday and walking to school is a free,accessible and easy way for childrento contribute to this target.Teachers tells us that pupils whowalk to school are more alert andready to learn than those who aredriven, plus when children walk toschool there is less congestion andpollution on local roads, makingschool gates a safer place. Despite these benefits, the numberof children walking to school is indecline with just 46 per cent ofchildren making the journey on foot.At Living Streets, we are committedto reversing this decline andpreventing the problems associatedwith inactivity, including childhoodobesity. Walk to School Week is agreat way to start so we’re reallyhappy that so many pupils inSouthwark joined in. Just because the week ofcelebration is over, it doesn’t meanfamilies have to stop. We’re thrilledthat schools across Southwarkalready take part in WOW – ouryear-round walk to school challenge,so they can continue to experiencethe benefits of walking to school all

year-round. Once again, a huge thank you andcongratulations to everyone whotook part in this year’s Walk toSchool Week – with your help we’llget more children experiencing ahealthy and happy walk to school. Joe Irvin, Chief Executive of LivingStreets

Well deserved SamI WISH to offer mycongratulations to Sam KingMBE, World War II veteran andSouthwark’s first black Mayor,who was awarded the Freedomof the Borough last week.Prior to being elected as Mayor ofSouthwark in 1983, the only servingblack Mayor in London at the time,Sam made many invaluablecontributions to our borough andcountry. He served in the Royal AirForce for seven years from 1944 to1951 and was one of the drivingforces behind the emergence of thefirst Notting Hill Carnival. We have been campaigning for MrKing to be recognised with theFreedom of the Borough for the lastthree years, so I wish to extend mythanks to Cllr Peter John, formerSouthwark Mayor Cllr Dora Dixon-Fyle and Southwark Council forbestowing Sam with the recognitionhe truly deserves.I encourage Southwark Council notto rest on its laurels and continue torecognise those individuals of thesame calibre as Mr King from acrossthe whole borough and allcommunities in Southwark everyyear. The Council should go one stepfurther by publishing their criteria fora Freedom of the Borough Award ontheir website so more residents cannominate worthy individuals likeSam King for the borough’s highestcivil honour.Prem Goyal OBE JP, All People’sParty

FAIR TAXATION is one of theissues most frequently raised byresidents on the doorstep and by

small business owners whenever I meetwith them in my constituency – it evencame up last week during a visit to alocal primary school!People on lower incomes have been hitparticularly hard by the Tories who haveraised VAT and increased taxes for the lowestpaid, whilst at the same time cutting taxes fortheir millionaire supporters. Many smallbusiness owners across my constituency arealso frustrated that while they pay their taxes,too many big businesses get away withoutpaying their fair share. And while the consequences of unfair taxesare bad for residents in South London, theyare even worse for developing countries, wholose more each year in tax avoidance thanthey gain in international aid – an astonishingsituation. The recent ‘Panama Papers’ leak ofthousands of documents from one law firmshone a light on the extent of tax avoidanceacross the globe – it should not be possible tohide behind the secrecy of tax havens, yet fartoo many people do – there is one officeblock in the Cayman Islands which is host tomore than 12,000 companies!Last year I stood on a platform pledging toreverse the Tories' cut in income tax for thoseearning more than £150,000 a year, cutincome tax for 24 million people with a new10p starting rate, reduce taxes for smallbusinesses to help them take on newemployees and grow and introduce taxbreaks for businesses which start to pay theLondon Living Wage. More recently, I havebeen asking the Prime Minister in Parliamentto ensure that all British Overseas Territorieskeep public registers of the owners ofcompanies registered there, to ensure moretransparency in tax havens.The UK should be leading the way on fairtaxes for both British workers and Britishcompanies, cracking down on abuse inBritish Overseas Territories and pressing forinternational cooperation to root out abuseabroad. I will continue to press the Torygovernment on both fronts over the next year,and to campaign for a fairer approach totaxation.

ON THURSDAY June 23rd,people across Southwarkwill make one of the

momentous decisions of our lives. Should we remain part of Europe’sco-operative democratic structures orshould we put ourselves outside them? Most people do not realise that manyenvironmental and health protectionsthat we enjoy in Southwark werecreated by the EU’s democraticinstitutions.The drive to increase Southwark’srecycling rate to 50% comes from theEU, which set a UK recycling target of50% by 2020. Before this,Southwark’s recycling rate was amiserable 3%.One of the biggest sources of fataldiseases in Southwark is transportpollution, which also damageschildren’s lungs. The EU ensured leadwas removed from petrol and has setlegal clean air standards for Southwarkthat the government is obliged to reachby 2020.The UK had one of the lowest levelsof clean renewable energy and againthe EU has set a 15% UK target whichwe also have to reach by 2020.The fact that the Thames has fishagain and our beaches are sewage-freeis due to clean- water legislation agreeddemocratically by EU countries.With all these positives, one has to askwhy the five UK billionaire tabloid-owners hate the social, environmentaland worker protections that the EUgives us? The Evening Standard askedRupert Murdoch why he hated the EUso much? He said “That is easy.Because when I go into Downing Streetthey do what I say, when I go toBrussels they take no notice”.So rather than do Murdoch’s biddingand destroy our environmental andhuman rights, listen to what Churchillsaid about Europe after World War II,that caused so much devastation inSouthwark. He said: “We must proclaim themission of a united Europe. A Europewhere people of every country willthink of being European. Whereverthey go in Europe, they will truly feel“here I am at home”. “ I will be voting Yes to European peaceand democracy on June 23rd. I hopeyou will also. You can register to vote online atwww.gov.uk/register-to-vote. Deadlineis 7th June.

Canadian circus rolls in

By Michael Holland

MANY YOUNGpeople of todaywill know the story of Peter Panfrom the Disney film, and knownothing of the back story. A newexhibition – Take Me ToNeverland - at the FlorenceNightingale Museum will in fill inall those gaps with artifacts fromold stage productions (TinkerBell’s bell); early editions of thebook; classic illustrations fromthose early books by Mabel LucieAtwell and Arthur Rackham; acollection of children’s letters sentto Peter Pan from 1906-14, and aselection of Peter Panmemorabilia never before seen inpublic.The collection, which has beenloaned by Great Ormond StreetHospital to whom author J.M.Barrie bequeathed the Peter Panrights to, will examine the truestory behind Barrie’s mostfamous character.David Barrie, great-great-nephewof J M Barrie, says: ‘Thisexhibition is going to challenge thesaccharine image of Peter Panthat Disney propagated. Mygreat-great-uncle was acomplicated man, and the darkside of his imagination is the keyto understanding the real powerof his greatest creation, Peter Pan.I’m delighted that this exhibition,filled with marvellous images, willhelp to set the record straight.’I took along young Haydn King,

who immediately identified theDisney characters, whose modelswere on display, but was amazedat earlier versions of someone hethought he knew so well.It wasn’t long before Haydn hadpicked up one of the many PeterPan books there to read, again,about the boy who never grew up.The admission fee also allows youin to the permanent exhibitionsthat tell the tale, quite

wonderfully through visual andaudio devices, of two of ourgreatest nurses: FlorenceNightingale and Mary Seacole.

HOT ON the heels of a criticallyacclaimed European premier inEdinburgh this year, CanadianCircus company Cirque Alfonsewill headline the LondonWonderground with thespectacularly raucous and sexycabaret Barbu. Wowing audiences in 2013 with theirLondon debut of the madcaplumberjack circus Timber!, CirqueAlfonse’s BARBU takes this form ofedge-of-your-seat, off-the-wallentertainment to a whole other levelwith breath-taking performances from agroup of the world’s mostextraordinary, dare-devil acrobats, allset to a heart thumping score by afrenetic electro-trad band. Barbu delves into the origins of thecircus in Montreal at the end of the 19thand beginning of the 20th centuries.Imagine a fairground, where spectatorsare left spellbound by astonishingperformances and outrageous feats,simple curiosities and unexpectedeccentricities. Political correctness has

no place in the madness and mayhemof this show. Since it began, Cirque Alfonse hasbeen exploring traditional iconicQuebec images and integrating theminto a truly innovative form ofcontemporary acrobatics. In theLanaudière region of Quebec, theCarabinier-Lépine family and theirclose friends joined forces in 2005, andthe following year they created LaBrunante which became the foundationfor Timber! which premiered in 2010.This highly original production becamean undeniable success with more than300 performances in 13 countries todate. London’s finest circus party andCirque Alfonse clan’s third show,BARBU, is an exuberant, bizarre andonce-in-a-lifetime extravaganza.

Southwark News, Thursday June 2, 2016 www.southwarknews.co.uk/food WHAT’S ON 23

I WANT to begin at the end and saythis is going to be a Five Star Reviewbecause the whole meal was perfectfrom start to finish for both of us,writes Michael Holland ...I remember reviewing Napuraseveral years ago and recall thinkingthat this place, that was set up morelike a sandwich and coffee café,should be so much more, as thecooking was just superb.Jump forward to now and Napura haschanged beyond recognition. The caféis now a fully-fledged restaurant withsurroundings and atmosphere thatbefits the cooking that is still as good,and that is because it is still a familyrun business and it is still Mama doingthe cooking.We were greeted and seated by sonCarlos who was smoothly and

elegantly looking after front of house.He said he had somerecommendations for us and wouldlike us to leave it to him – an offer wecouldn’t refuse.Like all good hosts Carlos poured useach a glass of white wine from theDouro region of Portugal that openedup and freshened the palate inreadiness for the feast ahead. Bread,olive oil and balsamic vinegar, plusolives with a good chilli kick wereprovided, a complimentary dish thatall tables were given. That is a verynice touch.First up was Pastel de Bacalhan (Codin pastry); nicely sized torpedoes offish and potato in a soft but crispcoating that came with a white dippingsauce. These almost melted in themouth and were quite exquisite. Codis very popular in Portugal and Carlostold us there is a saying that they havea ‘thousand ways to cook cod’. AsNina tucked into her portion withrelish she told me that I should learnsome!While eating these a largeMediterranean Salad was laid betweenus, quickly pursued by GambasSalteadas (Sautéd King Prawns). Thisfelt like Portuguese tapas - a way of

eating that we both enjoy - lots ofsmall dishes that keep coming andcoming.Bacalhau à Bràs (Scrambled Cod andEgg) joined the earlier plates ofdelicious food, a surprising dish thatnone of us had encountered before andone that could be tried at home.Because Carlos wanted us to samplethe best his mother can do, he wasgiving us smaller main courses, so theBacalhau à Bràs would normally beserved with fries. With so manycourses coming he did not want tooverload us, but by now I was gettingfearful of just how many more therewere to come! Every now and againMama would appear from the kitchento place more meals on the counter forCarlos to deliver to their rightfulowners.We looked at each other wonderingwhen the next plates would be oursjust as two dishes of Robalo na Brasa(Chargrilled Sea Bass with SautédVegetables) turned up! The fish hadbeen halved and shared on two platesfor us but would normally come wholewith rice. Carlos informed us that ithad been grilled simply, seasoned withonly salt, but its taste spoke of muchmore. The delicate, sweet flesh was

delectable, and we both remarked onhow good the vegetables were.The restaurant was full now and hadthe comforting hum of peopleenjoying food and a quiet soundscapeof Portuguese music in thebackground. I had slowed downknowing there was a meat dish comingfor me, and across the table I could seethat Nina was flagging. All we couldtalk about was how good the food was.Carlos told us that the recipes werefrom the old country and passed downthrough the years in the family. Thiswas like home from home cooking atits very best.Eventually my meat dish came:Carne de Porco à Alentejana (SautédPork, Clams & Prawns). This, I wastold, was the most popular dish on themenu and I could see why. There wasnothing not to like: meat, seafood,herbs and vegetables all in a goodsauce. Plus a glass of rather robust andfruity red wine was poured for me, aPorca de Murça 2013, to ensure thateverything was just so.I was truly done in by now, but in agood way. I was pleased that Carlosdid not bring the homemade chips thatusually accompanies the dish…And so, as we sat there with Cheshire

Cat grins and sleepy eyes, we wereroused from our reverie with thedessert menu. Still unable to speak Imotioned a plea for mercy, while Ninasaid that we needed a few minutes.After that few minutes I was in forthe Delicia Exótica, a layered cake thatinvolved lots of lovely things. It livedup to its name, but even Carlos has notbeen let into this little exotic secret; allhe could tell us was that it had mangoin there somewhere. Nina had Pastelde Nata, a custard tart that she loves.Our journey home to the joys of lyingdown on a settee to recover was spenttalking about the joys of that banquet.Look not at the total price because,as mentioned, we were not having thefull size meals, but just a sample ofeach to get a broader view of theofferings in Napura. And there are somany more scrumptious dishes to behad that we will be trying when wereturn.I have nothing against restaurantsemploying people with their Level 2NVQs in Cooking, but you will neverreplicate the years of experience thatcomes from the skills that are learntover time in the family kitchen. Icannot think of a better restaurant inNunhead right now.

THINK OF early 20th centuryLondon and most willimmediately picture The Blitz,rationing and rubble, while inpolitical terms, it ushered in thecreation of the welfare state,writes Owen Sheppard...But how many people alive todaywould recognize that such projects forcreating safety nets were beingtinkered with at the turn of thecentury by a charity based inPeckham?It was the ‘settlement movement’that originated and in 1896, and madeone of its early homes in the boroughof Camberwell, that gave rise to thefirst incarnation of meals on wheels,the first London children’s nursery,and the first ‘UnemploymentInsurance Scheme’.Its history is recalled by formerPeckham Settlement chair, 86-year-old Paddy Cribb, who remained atrustee until 2005. The most famous of the originalsettlements is Toynbee Hall in theEast End of London, and was foundedby Oxford University. But themovement more generally was startedby Home Counties public schoolsduring the “depressed Victoriantimes”, who also led missions inBirmingham, Sheffield andEdinburgh. Paddy says the conceptwas to help people in deprived areasand try to “innovate new solutions tosocial problems”.The Peckham Settlement first cameabout in 1896, and was driven byMiss Frances Dove, head mistress ofWycombe Abbey girls’ school inBuckinghamshire; later made DameFrances Dove. She set up the firstsouth London settlement in a six-and-a-half acre district known as StHilda’s in the Parish of Camberwell,with its main house located offAlbany Road.“She had a great conscience,” Paddysaid, “She wanted the girls’ school toset up a settlement of their own whileboys’ schools were doing the same.By 1897 there were 41 girls’ andboys’ public schools giving up theirtime to help educate and care for thepeople of Peckham, which, it seems,was a particularly poverty-riddenplace. Paddy cited one age-old factoidthat the area’s population density was“1,000 individuals to the acre”compared to a national average of 80to the acre. That made the Dickensian slums ofLondon more than ten times moretightly-packed than the typicalVictorian English town. All of thiscontributed to the spread of diseaseand a reliance on crime to salvage anincome. “Peckham had no districtnurse, no anti-natal or dental aids, andoften no school clinics or milksupplies,” Paddy said.The Settlement volunteers would

also visit young offenders’ institutesto educate and instill faith in theChurch of England. “In those daysyoung people could get the harshestpunishments for really very pettycrimes and be locked away for years,”Paddy said.The Peckham Settlement is alsocredited with setting up London’s firstnursery school in 1913 for childrenwhose parents needed to work.Whilst it prevailed throughout the20th century, the Settlement evenoperated as a charity-run job centre,giving free advice and expertise onhow to write CV and letters toemployers.But In 2012 the Settlement sadlywent into administration and wasliquidated to settle its debts, whichalso meant surrendering itsGoldsmith Road property where ithad resided since 1930. Though now, with its bills paid, thePeckham Settlement is due celebratea re-launch on June 16 at its newhome in Peckham Library, and reopenthe following week.

DAVID HAYE’S latest fight may haveunderwhelmed the boxing worldbut it pulled in a TV audience of2.5million viewers on Freeviewchannel Dave.Whilst the standard of his two rounddemolition of Arnold Gjergjaj has failedto impress many in the know in thegame it seems that he is still a big turn onfor Saturday night viewers.The show, which peaked at 2.5million,

had a TV audience share of 14.8 per centof viewers which was only behindBBC1 on the night.Haye this week reiterated his promiseto take on 44-year-old American veteranShannon Briggs in his next bout. After which he has stated he will fightnew world cruiserweight king TonyBellew who called Haye a ‘bitch fromBermondsey’ in an article he did withthe Daily Star.

FOR THEsecond week on the trot aDulwich Cricket Club contest wasdecided in the last over, but this timethey were pipped at the post byWorcester Park.Last Saturday Worcester Park won by amargin of five wickets after chasingdown Dulwich’s total of 256/8 with justthree ball to spare.The previous weekend Dulwich hadpipped Bank of England to win off thelast ball of the game, but seven days onthe tables were reversed.In Dulwich’s total openers Ed Stolleand Tom Savill set the standard with anopening stand of 91, with the lattereventual ending up top scorer of the daywith 94 off 106 balls.Ed Towner came in at the fall of the firstwicket and although he helped put on 66runs, at a slow pace, both he and Savillfell within a few overs of each other asthe Dulwich innings began to stutter.Rob Hill starred with the ball forWorcester Park, picking up five for 49 off

seven overs, leaving Jon Lodwick to hit alate flurry of runs, 24 off thirteen balls, toensure Dulwich went past the 250 markin their 50 overs.Dulwich struck quickly when theybowled as Naeem Iqbal took the firstwicket with the score on thirteen in thesixth over. Tight bowling by Iqbal, Lodwick andLeon Sealy kept the second wicket standdown to 43 in 11.3 overs, but Joe Hill’sdismissal, for 28 with the score on 56,brought in his twin brother Rob. The skipper then masterminded standsof 53 off 10.3 overs for the third wicket,71 off 13.1 for the fourth, and 23 off 3.2for the fifth. He was run out by Stolle with the scoreon 203, having made 65 off 79 balls, and54 runs were still needed off six overs.But with wickets in hand Rob Waiteand Amer Saleem were able to go fortheir shots and levelled the score off thelast ball of the 49th over. The winning run came three balls later.

EX-LYNN ABC man CharlieDriscoll will make his début asa pro fighter on June 9 at YorkHall, Bethnal Green.The Lightweight fighter hassigned terms with Frank Warren andas a result his bout will be shown onthe promoter’s Boxnation channel.A familiar face from theCamberwell gym will be guidingDriscoll as the amateur club’s headcoach Samm Mullins will be in thecorner of the 22-year-old throughthe pro ranks.Driscoll was a six time nationalchampion as an amateur and hisfather Mick Driscoll is currentlyhead coach of the Englandschoolboys boxing squad.

Batty haul can’t halt painful lossA TEN wicket match haul fromSurrey skipper Gareth Battywasn’t enough for his side tosecure their first win of theCounty Championship season.The one wicket defeat againstSomerset at Taunton this week will beharder to take as the Kennington sidelook set to be crowned the victors,only to be defied by a stubbornunbeaten last wicket stand of 31between Jack Leach and TimGroenewald.Surrey posted a total of 264 in theirfirst innings which looked a muchbetter score than it first appeared whenBatty ran through the Somerset side,

taking seven wickets for 32 runs, as thehome team mustered 102 in response.The visitors second innings washardly stellar, mustering just 138, butwith 300 runs to defend Surrey lookhot favourites when Somerset battedsecond time around.Although the home side made abetter fist of things when batting againthe game looked to be going Surrey’sway when the ninth wicket fell for270, but the Somerset tail enders dugin and clinched an unlikely win thatleaves Surrey bottom of CountyChampionship Division One. That loss ended a bad seven days forthe Kia Oval side as they also fell to

defeat in their first home fixture in theNatwest t20 Blast competition lastThursday.In fact the defeat against Glamorganwas as one-sided as losses come in thatformat of the game, not helped whenSurrey posted just 93 in failing to batout their 20 overs.Timm van der Gugten was thetormentor in chief with ball in hand,picking up four Surrey scalps for ameasly fourteen runs.In response the visitors made shortwork of attaining the runs they needed,needed just 12.2 overs to reach thewinning line, with Jacques Rudolphtop scoring with 34 not out.

WEMBLEY HEARTACHE: BARNSLEY 3-1 MILWALL Sunday 29 May 2016


October

2015-16SeasonReview

It was a season oftransition for Millwallthat almost endedwith promotion tothe Championship.Mark Litchfield andJay Taylor look backat the highs and lowsof the campaign.

OCTOBER BEGAN with an eight-goalthriller as Peterborough defeated the Lions 5-3. Byron Webster, Tony Craig and Mark Beeversscored a succession of headers on a bizarre dayat London Road, but that was not to be enough,as the Posh rattled in a quintet of strikes,ensuring that Millwall headed back down theA1 pointless.George Savile joined on loan from Wolves

prior to the JPT clash with Northampton Townand his arrival coincided with the beginning ofa nine-match unbeaten run. The Cobblers wereeasily beaten as O'Brien and Gregory netted ina 2-0 win, before the same score was repeatedwhen Millwall overcame a lacklustre SwindonTown.A 1-1 draw with struggling Blackpool, that

included a red card for Carlos Edwards, wasfollowed up by an impressive victory atSheffield United when an O'Brien doubleensured three points for Millwall in a 2-1 win.The month ended with a 2-0 defeat of DoncasterRovers, before a feisty contest with BradfordCity, in which Craig picked up a serious kneeinjury that would rule him out for six months,ended goalless.A fruitful month meant that the Lions werenow on the cusp of the top six.

EXPECTATIONS WERE high amongLions fans as the campaign began at NewMeadow with goals from Lee Gregoryand Steve Morison handing Neil Harris'side a 2-1 victory, However, two home defeats in the league

against Coventry and Barnsley and anextra-time Capital One Cup loss to Barnetquickly had most re-setting thoseexpectations. David Forde was the fall guyafter the 3-2 defeat to the Tykes, losing hisplace in goal to Jordan Archer as Millwalltried to stop the rot at Scunthorpe United.They got a point and a clean sheet but thehome hoodoo remained a problem whenChesterfield eased their way to a 2-0 win atThe Den a week later. .The month of August was a shock to the

system for many, but September would seethe Lions begin to roar – andfinally claim that preciousfirst home win.

JUST 2,050fans saw a 1-0 win over PeterboroughUnited in the first round of the Johnstone's PaintTrophy. Shaun Williams' injury-time header meant theLions advanced, but the night was a landmarkmoment in the season with a first home win finallyarriving.There were six more points collected at Crewe

Alexandra and Port Vale, the former courtesy of asublime hat-trick from exciting prospect AidenO'Brien. Millwall were deflated again at home, though,

when Southend United claimed all three points in aDen clash that Millwall really shouldn’t have lost. Aweek later, goals from Jimmy Abdou, Williams andMorison helped see off Rochdale and meant a firsthome league win of the season.Wigan Athletic snatched a point from the jaws of

defeat thanks to Will Grigg's 92nd-minute equaliserin a 2-2 draw to end the month, but the season wasup and running – in October, the charge up the tablewould begin.

September

Conference North outfit AFC Fylde presented apossible banana skin in the FA Cup for Millwallas November got underway, but goals fromO'Brien, Gregory and Morison ensured a smoothpassage to round two, where they would meetWycombe Wanderers.Gregory became the first Millwall player to hit four

goals in a game since Teddy Sheringham in 1991three days later when the Lions got themselves onthe right side of a 5-3 scoreline, this time in the JPTagainst Plymouth Argyle. That meant they qualifiedfor the Southern Section semi-finals.Harris' charges were now hitting goals for fun and

that continued when they beat struggling ColchesterUnited 4-1. Gregory was on target once more, whileShane Ferguson, with a brace, and Byron Webster,

both scored their first goals of the campaign.The unbeaten run came to a halt at a miserable

Highbury Stadium in Fleetwood three days later. Butthe Lions bounced back on their own patch when amemorable double save Jordan Archer, whoseinfluence was growing, contributed to a 1-0 victoryover Bury after Shaun Williams’ third goal of theseason.

The final month of the year opened withconsecutive 2-1 defeats, to promotion-chasingBurton Albion in the league and WycombeWanderers, who scored a 94th-minute winner,in the second round of the FA Cup. That deniedMillwall a potential money-spinning third-round tie. One competition the club were thriving in,

though, was the JPT. Goals from Morison andWilliams sent Millwall through to a SouthernSection final against Oxford United in front of1,551 away fans at Southend United on December8.

The league form continued to splutter, however,as after a postponed game against Oldham Athletic,Gillingham took all three points in a pre-Christmasclash at The Den. Archer was shown a straight red

card in the first half on a day to forget for the homeside.The Den woes continued on Boxing Day as

Walsall left with a single-goal victory, but just 48hours later the Lions returned to Roots Hall andromped to a 4-0 victory over Southend.A year that saw many lows had ended on a high,

and it was the perfect boost going into 2016, whenMillwall really clicked into gear in League One.

DESPITE A 1-0 victory over Oxford in thesecond leg of the JPT area final, the damagehad been done in the first leg. That meant theLeague Two side set up a Wembley date withBarnsley after a 2-1 aggregate win.The confidence after the performance, though,

coursed through Millwall and they recorded athumping win over promotion candidatesWalsall at the Banks Stadium. Mahlon Romeowas a surprise debutant at right-back, and theyoungster capped his first senior appearance offin style scoring Millwall’s second in the 3-0 win.A hat-trick of away wins was completed when

Gregory’s nineteenth goal of the season wasenough to see off Rochdale 1-0. That made it fivesuccessive away victories in all competitions. The midweek visit of Scunthorpe brought the

Lions crashing back down to earth in what wasa dire performance from start to finish on a coldevening at The Den.Archer then produced the save and one of the

moments of the season to keep out Beevers’unconventional back pass with an even moreunconventional header in the 3-0 win overPeterborough.A 1-1 draw at the Keepmoat against Doncaster

wrapped up an impressive month for the Lions.

SECOND-PLACED Wigan came to TheDen on a Tuesday evening that should haveseen Millwall claim all three points afterSam Morsy had been sent off. Instead, the Lions were forced to settle for agoalless draw. Harris’ men dominated theentire 90 minutes, but were unable to break thedeadlock.Millwall then trashed Blackpool 3-0 with

goals from Gregory, Wallace and a MorisonpenaltyThe Lions were looking comfortable a week

later at the County Ground, having taken a 2-0 lead against Swindon. Unable to kill thegame off, they succumbed to a cruel added-time equaliser when Michael Doughtypounced to finish a cross.There was a potentially huge blow when

Wallace, who had become such a fanfavourite, was recalled by parent club Wolves.A deal, though, had already been agreed forChris Taylor and he scored the winner againstSheffield United just two minutes into hissecond debut for the club. Harris decided to rest Gregory for the trip to

Bradford and that would turn out to be costlyas Steven Davies headed home a late winnerfor the Lions’ promotion rivals.Easter Monday saw league leaders Burton

visit The Den and, live on Sky, Millwall puton a show. Goals from O’Brien and Gregorysealed a thunderous win and laid down amarker with the top two still in Millwall’ssights.

HARRIS WAS unhappy with a goalless drawat Colchester, questioning the focus of some ofhis younger players. But in the next game, Ben Thompson, whose

work rate and desire could rarely be questioned,scored the Lions’ goal of the season with a 25-yard half-volley to equalise against Shrewsburybefore Morison and Gregory netted to earn a 3-1win.Millwall had a real shot at second place heading

into the trip to the Ricoh Arena to face Coventry.Webster gave the visitors the lead but Williamswas then sent off for a headbutt offence. Millwalldefended desperately, but two goals in nine

second-half minutes effectively ended theirchances of automatic promotion.Morison scored a sublime lobbed effort to

secure a 1-0 win over Fleetwood before grabbinganother away to Bury in the 3-1 win in whichTaylor got a double.Next, Oldham were all but safe from the threat

of relegation and it showed. The Lions neededonly a point to guarantee a top-six place but got allthree after a 3-0 win.

THE NEW Year started off on another low atOakwell where Barnsley completed theleague double over their opponents. Inincessant rain, Morison restored parity afterSam Winnall’s opener, before AdamHammill won it for Lee Johnson’s side. Jed Wallace was then recruited on-loan fromWolves, managed by former Den boss KennyJackett, and he would provide the creative sparkfor improved collective form. Wallace made his debut in the 2-1 win over

Oldham at Boundary Park, playing a part inGregory’s goal after two minutes beforeMorison scored with five minutes left to securethree precious points up north.A first-leg JPT area final defeat at home toLeague Two Oxford, when Forde’s mistakewould have consequences for his first-teamplace, was followed by a 3-1 home win againstPort Vale, with Morison adding a third afterGregory’s brace.A hard-fought 2-1 win at Chesterfield inMillwall’s first visit to the Proact Stadium camebefore a frustrating home draw with then-bottomCrewe after Gregory had missed a late penalty.But the Lions were finally in the top six.

leg of the play-off semi-final at Bradford, JoeMartin handling to give Tony McMahon thechance to score from the spot. Less than twominutes later, however, Gregory equalised.Morison and Martin then shocked the hosts

with two more goals before the break. Fivedays later, the Lions finished the job.Gregory’s opener was cancelled out by JamieProctor’s strike but the game petered outbefore a pitch invasion ruined any chanceBradford had of recovering the 4-2 aggregatedeficit.

Lloyd Isgrove scored a third in the 74thminute to destroy the dreams of more than30,000 Millwall fans at Wembley. Despite the defeat, it was a season ofprogress and thoughts now turn to summerrecruitment and another expected promotionbid in 2016-17.

IT WAS heartbreak again atWembley for Millwall as they lost3-1 to Barnsley in the League Oneplay-off final.After such a promising season, and

a promising win over Bradford in thesemi-final, many hoped, and evenexpected, the Lions to return to theChampionship at the first time ofasking.Yet, on the day, it was never meant

to be as the better side won.Here’s where the match was lost for

Millwall.

POOR OPENING 20 MINUTES.Millwall had started brightly, goingstraight from the kick-off to win afree-kick in an attacking position.Chris Taylor whipped it in but MarkBeevers could not direct his headergoalwards. And just 30 seconds later, Barnsley

took the lead.The Lions failed to deal with the

resulting goal-kick, allowing Barnsleyto win both the first and second ball.Ashley Fletcher profited from SamWinnall’s header and the on-loanManchester United player held offthree defenders before coollyfinishing low to the corner past JordanArcher.Millwall slowly got back into the

game and took control but wereunable to trouble Adam Davies in theBarnsley goal with the Tykes defencedealing with long balls aimed towardsSteve Morison.Then, for the second time inside 20

minutes, the Lions were punished.Adam Hammill picked up the ball

just inside the Millwall half and, withdefenders backing off, was allowed tounleash a shot from 25 yards thatcurled into the top right corner. For Millwall, the game looked overso soon after it had begun. In fact,Barnsley looked in the mood to runriot.

DEFENSIVE FRAILTIESProblems in Millwall’s defence

started before kick-off when ByronWebster left the warm-up and headedstraight down the tunnel with physioBobby Bacic. Millwall had plannedall week with Webster in their side.His loss was badly felt in both penaltyareas and, as the first goal showed,outside them. Club captain Tony Craig came in

but it was asking a lot to fill the bootsof Webster who had been a key playerfor Millwall, particularly in thesecond half of the season.And it was Craig who lost the first

battle in the lead up to Barnsley’sopening goal, as Winnall got the vitaltouch. Fletcher then shrugged offCarlos Edwards far too easily to makespace for a shot.Edwards’ defending was once again

questionable before the second goalas he and Ben Thompson allowedHammill time and space to pick hisshot and double Barnsley’s lead. Itwas still a brilliant strike but Millwallought to have known about hisquality. Things went from bad to worse forthe Lions when Joe Martin limped offwith a calf injury in the 43rd minute.

It felt everything that could go wrongwas going wrong. Despite seeming to have workedtheir way back into the game throughBeevers’ 34th-minute goal, Millwallcouldn’t force another. And theirdefensive organisation was onceagain a shambles when the smallestman on the pitch, Lloyd Isgrove, lostEdwards and got his head to the ballbefore Archer who had come out toclaim it. The goal left Millwall players

standing around looking bewildered –but that was the story of the day.

FAILURE TO TAKE CHANCESBarnsley’s opener came just 30

seconds after Beevers had missed agood chance to give Millwall the leadand it seemed to set the tone for theday.In the space between Barnsley’s

first two goals, Millwall had chancesto forge openings as they got the ballforward directly and deep intoBarnsley’s half, but theircommunication seemed off. Morison, Millwall’s main attacking

weapon, worked extremely hard, buthis team-mates didn’t appear to be onthe same page as numerous flick-onsfell to Barnsley defenders. The otherpoint was that Barnsley knewMillwall would play that way, so bossPaul Heckingbottom could set up hisside and ensure his defenders were inpositions to mop up second balls. When Millwall finally took their

chance and pulled one back throughBeevers, many fans would haveexpected it to be a turning point, butthe second half brought more of thesame frustrations.The Lions had plenty of possession

after the break without ever reallylooking like they could regularlypenetrate the Tykes defence. Barnsleycould also sit back and hit Millwall onthe break, with Hammill and Isgroveproviding width and pace.On the one occasion when Millwall

did stretch the Barnsley defence,Morison did well to get a cross in butAiden O’Brien’s shot was saved.Millwall had just nine shots toBarnsley’s sixteen over the course ofthe game, and though only one fewerwas on target, the clinical finishing ofthe Tykes’ front line proved thedifference.Millwall, meanwhile, just didn’thave a plan B and that’s somethingNeil Harris will need to look at overthe summer.

MILLWALL DEFENDERMark Beevers agrees the clubhave taken “a massive stepforward” this season despitelosing to Barnsley in theLeague One play-off final lastSunday. The Lions went into the gameconfident they could winimmediate promotion back to theChampionship, but Barnsleydenied them that chance with acommanding display. However, Beevers, who has yetto decide whether to sign a newdeal with the club, is optimisticabout the future. “The manager has said thisseason has been a massive stepforward,” he explained. “We’vebonded as a team and each gamewe’ve gone into, whether we’veplayed badly, we’ve won, lost anddrawn together. “There have been times duringthe season when we’ve not playedas well as we could have done butstill picked up points and I thinkthat speaks volumes for the ladsand how far they’ve come. “It wasn’t to be. It was adisappointing day but all in all itwas a good season.” Beevers scored at Wembley toreduce the 2-0 lead Barnsley hadraced into inside the opening 20minutes but Lloyd Isgrove scored athird sixteen minutes from time tohelp his side to a historic win. Barnsley-born defender Beeversstressed the squad were calmleading up to the contest, butadmitted the timing and manner ofthe three goals they concededmade it difficult to recover. “If you’re going to lose a finalyou might as well finish 21st out of24 teams in the league,” Beeverssaid. “It’s a sinking feeling and givingBarnsley two goals so early killedus. We did get back into it and wereon top towards the end of the firsthalf but then in the second half wekilled ourselves again with thethird goal. “We know we’ve got players inour team that can hurt other teams.We came out in the second halfwith confidence, though I think wecould have created more chances,to be honest. “We were quite relaxed in thecamp, we weren’t getting ahead ofourselves. We know what we’recapable of. We can keep cleansheets and create chances and putthe ball in the back of the net. “But it was just one of those dayswhen things didn’t quite fall for usand fell for them, they got threegoals. It is quite uncharacteristic ofus to concede three goals.”

Sunday May 29, 2016 BARNSLEY 3-1 MILWALL WEMBLEY HEARTACHE

42 MILLWALL www.southwarknews.co.uk/sport Southwark News, Thursday June 2, 2016


IN THE end crushingdisappointment, but the realisationBarnsley were the better side. Was there anything else Millwallcould have done to win? In terms ofeffort, no. But Neil Harris’ side didn’thave, or play with, the quality of theiropponents. Mark Beevers, who pulled a goal backwith Barnsley threatening to run awaywith the contest, and Steve Morisonwere outstanding. But otherwise therewas little inspiration or creativity fromthe Lions. Millwall fans outnumbered their rivalsat Wembley, and later there was troubleon the upper tier, but on the pitch it wasBarnsley who often outnumbered theiropponents. Millwall’s tactics didn’t take a lot ofworking out, with Beevers anglingnumerous long balls to Morison whowon the majority of them over AlfieMawson. But Barnsley were wise to it,and they got players around the centre-back to sweep up the second ballsbefore Chris Taylor or Lee Gregorycould get to them. Barnsley had more pace in their side,with Adam Hammill and Lloyd Isgroveconstant menaces. Taylor and ShaneFerguson, meanwhile, struggled to getanything from their opponents meaningthere was little quality supply to thestrikers. It was no surprise this was oneof Gregory’s quietest games of theseason. There will be bitterness now at thethought it is trips to Rochdale andNorthampton next season rather thanNewcastle or Aston Villa. Then again, maybe tests like that aretoo much for this side at this stage of itsdevelopment, and maybe too early inhis management career for Harris to becoming up against the likes of RafaelBenitez. But that reflection will comemuch later. On Sunday, any strategy Harris hadwas blown apart after three minuteswhen Ashley Fletcher scored, and itlooked like Barnsley were going to givethe Lions a mauling when Hammilldoubled the lead in the 19th minute. Millwall fans digested that shockbefore raising the noise levels again,more than 30,000 of them urging theirside to attack. They got some rewardwhen Beevers scored and it felt likebetween then and half-time wasMillwall’s chance to level. But they couldn’t discomfortBarnsley, who kept their opponent’s atarm’s length, apart from a couple of lateefforts from Taylor and Aiden O’Brien.By then, though, all the damage hadbeen done, after Lloyd Isgrove, thesmallest man on the pitch, flicked aheader past Jordan Archer from Conor

Hourihane’s corner. That was the signal for some Millwallfans on the upper tier to break throughsecurity barriers with fights appearingto break out. It was a bitter finale and ahugely disappointing end to the season. Harris answered “next question” whenpressed on the incidents afterwards, buthe stressed there were no excuses for aperformance that frustrated. Still, there

will also be some temptation to ask:What if? Millwall knew they would begoing into the game without thesuspended Mahlon Romeo and whilethey coped against Bradford, his redcard against Gillingham now looks sosignificant. On Sunday, Millwall could have donewith his power and pace against aBarnsley side that had plenty of both.

Carlos Edwards finally looked his 37years and it wasn’t a surprise that hewas one of seven players Millwallconfirmed on Monday wouldn’t havetheir contracts extended beyond June30. There had been a huge blow for

Millwall before kick-off. ByronWebster was named in the starting XIand it appeared he was over his

BARNSLEY 3BARNSLEY RATINGS

He couldn’t do anything about MarkBeevers’ goal but saved brilliantly fromChris Taylor late on and also kept outAiden O’Brien.

Adam Davies - 8

Always backed up the play and wasclearly told by his manager to be awareof second balls coming off SteveMorison and Lee Gregory.

Josh Scowen - 7

He couldn’t prevent Beevers turning to firein Millwall’s goal but otherwise keptGregory quiet. Chance to score in thesecond half but shot over.

Marc Roberts - 7

The big centre-back was a Millwalltarget last summer and gave as good ashe got in a physical battle againstMorison under numerous long balls.

Alfie Mawson - 8

Like Scowen, his principle detail was toprovide cover for Roberts and Mawsonand he did that job efficiently with goodreading of the game.

George Williams - 7

The little winger was a constant thorn inMillwall’s side and capped a fineperformance by nodding homeBarnsley’s third goal.

Lloyd Isgrove - 8

The on-loan Preston midfielder put in amature and composed display andwithout fuss kept his side ticking alongnicely.

Josh Brownhill - 7

The quality he possesses in his left footwas always a problem for Millwall andhe supplied the corner from whichIsgrove scored.

Conor Hourihane - 8

He was the best player on the pitch by adistance and his goal, curled into the topcorner from 25 yards, was the strike ofthe play-offs.

Adam Hammill - 9

He wasn’t quite the goal threat expectedbut worked hard and it was from hisflick that Fletcher gave the Tykes thelead.

Sam Winnall - 7

Barnsley had their own MarcusRashford in the striker on loan fromManchester United and he set them ontheir way in the third minute.

Ashley Fletcher - 8

Toney came on with the game won andso Barnsley fans could show theirappreciation for Fletcher.

Ivan Toney - 5 (for Fletcher, 81)

Similarly, Isgrove had his work donewhen Watkins came on to help see thegame out.

Marley Watkins - 5 (for Isgrove, 85)

hamstring problem when he took partin the warm-up. However, at 2.30pm,he was spotted heading to the players’tunnel with club physio Bobby Bacic.Moments later, Harris shook handswith Tony Craig who then joined theback four’s specific preparations withDave Livermore. It was Craig’s first start since Octoberand it was a worry that the right side of

the defence was missing its two mostconsistent performers this year, Websterand Romeo. Webster’s withdrawal alsomeant a place on the bench for 19-year-old striker Jamie Philpot. The late defensive restructuringclearly affected Millwall and directlyled to Fletcher’s opening goal. Craig,where Webster would have been, wasbeaten in the air by Sam Winnall,

Fletcher shrugged off Edwards toadvance into the box and give his sidethe lead in front of Barnsley’s fans witha low drive past Archer. The Lions had prepared all week withWebster as part of the back four, and itwas a mistake from Craig that almostgifted Barnsley their second goal.Wearing the captain’s armband, Craigwas late to step up to play offside and

the striker was through. The angle wastight, though, and Archer spreadhimself to save before springing to hisfeet to launch the inquisition. When Barnsley did go two goals infront, the move originated down thatside normally occupied by Romeo andWebster. Hammill picked up the balldeep but Edwards stood off him toallow the winger to advance towardsthe box. Ben Thompson was alsocovering but neither Millwall player gotclose enough to prevent Hammillshooting majestically past Archer from25 yards. Craig was certainly having an eventfulafternoon. In the 34th minute JoshScowen’s mis-directed header fromFerguson’s corner fell to him on hisweaker right foot. He scuffed his shotbut Beevers used that big frame toshield the ball from Marc Robertsbefore spinning to fire home his fifthgoal of the season. The defensive balance was disruptedfurther in the 43rd minute when JoeMartin went down off the ball with acalf problem. O’Brien came on for himwith Ferguson dropping to left-back,which meant Millwall were withoutthree-quarters of their first-choice backfour. That also probably played a part in theuncertainty when Archer came forHourihane’s corner in the 74th minutebut mis-judged it, allowing Isgrove toflick home Barnsley’s third. Harris brought on Shaun Williamsand Fred Onyedinma but utimatelyMillwall had given themselves toomuch to do with the concession of thoseearly goals. O’Brien and Taylor, whoshould have scored, had late chancesbut it was all too desperate and so aseason that built to such a thrillingclimax ends in heartbreak. Barnsley, after their stunning form thisyear – they were second from bottomof League One in November after eightdefeats in a row – are heading back tothe Championship after a two-yearabsence. Millwall will have to wait atleast one more year for a chance toexperience that feeling. After the disappointment leaves therewill be reflections on how far the clubhave come this season, despite notbeing able to take that final step. There won’t be wholesale changes tothe squad over the summer, even iflikely interest in players such asGregory could force certain moves inthe transfer market. But it’s a young squad and the likes ofJimmy Abdou, 31, and Morison, 32,still have plenty to offer. Millwall will be favourites to achievepromotion next season and though itseems a long way away, they willapproach it with optimism.

Jordan Archer - 5

His lack of pace was a problem and hestood off Adam Hammill when thewinger cut infield to score the Tykes’second goal

Carlos Edwards - 5

He was drafted in late when ByronWebster pulled up in the warm-up. At faultwhen Fletcher almost scored a second andrusty on his first start in seven months.

Tony Craig - 5

Chris Taylor - 5

He came off second best in the midfieldbattle, didn’t really get forward muchbut never stopped running as usual.

He was heading straight to the airportafterwards and he’ll be looking to makea much bigger impact in France than hedid at Wembley.

Shane Ferguson- 5

The Millwall striker could not havedone much more to try to win the gamefor his team. He was superb in the airbut others couldn’t follow.

Steve Morison - 8

Lee Gregory - 5

We had discussions

where their futures lie. They aregood guys, great pros. But theywant to play regularly. “They come to work every daybut they want to be involved onSaturday at three o’clock. I’mcompletely respectful to theirpositions.

Coming outof the game as I did myself, youhave to play as long as you can. “We’re not in a position at themoment to offer player-coachingroles.
