25/09/2014 Look North (East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire)

That's all from the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me,

Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

Grimsby Town has more banned fans than some Premier League cltbs, but

Quite often I find that we `re treated worse than maybe we deserve

to be. A call

for a 20 mile per hour limit outside It is dangerous and they ard not

thinking about what they ard doing. We want to keep our children safe.

The shop keepers told they need permission for signs

And the 23 year old biker crowned the new world champhon.

And the all`important weathdr forecast including a look at the

weekend. All the details in 15 minutes.

Grimsby Town has more supporters banned from going to their games

than some Premier League cltbs, including Aston Villa and Everton.

38 Grimsby fans were prevented from watching their team last

season because of banning orders put on them by the courts.

Supporters groups say their reputation is being d`maged

Crowd trouble as Grimsby town dropped out of the football league.

But for years on fans claim the repercussions of this are still

being felt. There was trouble at that game, nobody would denx that.

But I think that there has been a knock`on effect because of that and

quite often I find that we `re probably treated worse than maybe we

deserve to be. Home Office figures show 38 Grimsby supporters `re

banned from watching their team That is more than many premher big

clubs including Hull city, @ston Villa and Everton. Teams with as

many as 15 times the number of fans. Last season 27 supporters wdre

arrested at games, but the club point out that the majority were

away from the home stadium. Still, re`searchers believe that it could

have a financial impact on the club. Where police recognise therd could

be a potential for disorder they must police this event and ht could

cost the club significant alount of rent `` significant amount of

revenue. Today in the town fans told me they have not seen much bad

behaviour at matches. You used to see more in the 70s and 80s but

recently now, they are readx. They can be aggressive with the chants

but I have not seen any trotble in the ground or outside of thd ground.

Sometimes fans are vocal with the opinion, especially of the lanager,

but other than that, not re`lly The club say it is a small minority that

causes trouble like this and the figures show the number of fans

being banned is reducing. Joining me now is Nick Dale,

who is the Stadium manager Good evening and thank you for

coming in. 27 arrested, 38 banning orders. Is for Grimsby town? It is

never a good statistic and ht is not a statistic the club enjoys or

welcomes. Not until such pohnt that you can say that you have no banning

orders or arrests for that season. Why does Grimsby have one of the

highest ratios of banning orders to the number of fans? It is still a

relatively small proportion, about 1% of overall support. But ht shows

that we proactively police our supporters in terms of disorder and

are very successful in obtahning banning orders. That you have more

fans banned them some Premidr League clubs, Everton has 13 and Grimsby

has 38. The clubs are poles apart in comparison, both Premier Le`gue

clubs are purely season`ticket holders and when they have 00,0 0

supporters who are season`thcket holders pay in excess of ?1000 per

year and watching the icons of the world in time `` in terms of

football. The types of people doing that will not be bothered if they

get their pass or not. It is about not being caught and not behng held

accountable for your actions. The infrastructure of the Premidr League

does result in successful prosecutions. One fans groups say

that the supporters have a reputation for disorder, is that

fair? Completely unfair. We have a loyal fan base who behave themselves

and a passionate travelling supporters club. This is thd sixth

year running that have a high number of banning orders. You are not

getting to grips with it. I disagree, when I started it was 68

added this now reduced to a research today. What is your message to the

troublemakers? As a fan of the club, why would you want to hurt the club

or your fellow supporters? Disorder has a negative impact on thd club in

terms of reputation and in terms of how supporters are treated `t away

grounds. Thank you very much for coming in. Keen to hear your views.

Do you watch Grimsby town? Hs the reputation on fair? I be put off of

watching football because of the fans? Get in touch if you are a

supporter of the club. In a moment: The 70 tonne lock gates

outside every school Police say they're some of

the fastest speeds they've recorded outside schools in Lincolnshire

This week, 62 miles per hour, last Across the country several children

are injured outside of schools of the year. One campaigner wants the

speed limit reduced to 20 mph outside of schools.

Police say they're some of the fastest speeds they've recorded

outside schools in Lincolnshire This week, 62 miles per hour, last

year 75. Both here on this road outside Marton Primary school. Eight

year old Alex has this mess`ge. Nine year old Tegan saw two vehicles

They should slow down and think that there are children walking home from

school. They should stick to the speed limit. Nine`year`old Keegan

sought two vehicles collided on the road. There was a tractor that was

coming out when a car was going really fast. The tractor pulled out,

not realising become was coling out and ended up crashing. Police found

more than 70% of drivers were going faster than the 30 mph limit and

almost 30% were doing over 40, with one driver recorded at 75 mph. It is

dangerous and they are not thinking about what they are doing. We want

to keep their children safe. And we can do that if they are driving at

those kinds of speeds through our village. It has always been a safety

issue, if we want the children to a bus we must make sure that the older

ones are on the outside with the younger ones on the inside hn the

adult is like a human shield. One suggestion about tackling the

problem is to put up flashing signs that tell drivers how fast they are

going. Teachers say they wotld like to see the national speed lhmit

signs moved further away to stop drivers starting to speed up outside

of the school. Some drivers do push on early when they think it is clear

and obviously in front of a primary school it is not always cle`r. If

you're near the school and that is activity then you must slow down.

Even if you are doing 30. Tdachers and pupils here hope things will

start to change. And drivers get the message soon.

Earlier I spoke to Rod King who campaigns for a 20 miles per hour

I asked him if it was realistic for all schools to have 20 lile per

It is something which will go authorities throughout the country

have considered, based on the latest guidance from the DFT, which is

encouraging it and based on the requirements of things like the

equality act and so on and `dulation ship with children. They ard doing

it in many, many places arotnd the country. The transport rese`rch

laboratory said that the signs 0 mph speed limit the liver zdro

reduction in accidents. I al not sure how old is that report was that

you are looking at, I not aware of any recent report that is s`ying

that. What I am aware of is that throughout the country in m`ny

places local authorities have done pilots and found substantial

benefits for a 20 mph limit that not only covers reduction in casualties,

they may increase cycling and walking. And the environment that is

better for children. What about the driver the other night, 62 lph past

the school in March. That is not appropriate and the main issue here

is that Lincolnshire County Council is not doing anything about it. It

is sad that it is difficult to put in a 20 mile per limit but that

difficulty is not there in other parts of the country. It has been

overcome and better, safer neighbourhoods are being delivered

for in communities which is what people want. What about those

watching now, car drivers that would be happy. You have to go down to

second, it will feel extremdly slow. If every built`up area you `re a

school you're going at 20 mph. One school you're going at 20 mph. One

of the differences is that wheels you are at 20 mils per hour limit

you deliver a 20 mph limit on every bodies home road which makes

everybody feel much more part of that, feel like the audit and feel

much more that actually driving slower in those places is not going

to make any difference to journey time but makes a huge difference to

the way in which people feel and live and can go about those

communities quite safely. Interesting to chat with yot

tonight. Thank you. Do you agree that

the speed limit should be ctt to 20 in all residential areas,

including outside schools? Or should all motorists be punished

for the behaviour of a few? Should we see more speed

cameras outside schools to We will have some of your mdssages

before the finish. Still ahead tonight, their signs

have been up for a decade but now some shopkeepers ard told

they could breach planning rules. And the Lincolnshire motor cycle is

crowned world champion. Tonhght the photograph is of the sunrisd over

the Humber. Look at is, absolutely stunning. Taken from the pidr in

Hull. We will have another picturd

tomorrow. Paul mentioned it has been a lovely start to the working week,

this is a trend among weathdr forecasters. Can it stop, wd live in

a seven`day society. This is your Friday night! Happy Friday to you.

Let's look at the headline for the next 24 hours, tomorrow will turn

cloudy through the morning `nd perhaps a little bit of drizzle in

places but the afternoon will turn increasingly sunny, mild and

breezy. A lovely afternoon to come, with beautiful weather behind this

week. The cold front, thickdr cloud for a time during the morning but

apart from the odd spot of drizzle it is dry and the weekend is looking

very promising indeed. We do have a lot of closed for a time but it is

20 degrees at Coningsby this afternoon, not bad for the dnd of

September. This evening and overnight folks are said to be mild,

quite breezy and generally dry, just the odd bit of drizzle perh`ps

across Yorkshire and excepthonally mild for a late September nhght

Rows of 14 or 15 degrees. The sun rises in the morning at 653, the

next high water table in Cldethorpes at 7:35 a.m., with a better

brightness across southern parts of East Lincolnshire. Thus werd a lot

of closed, we will see a bit of patchy rain slipping down from the

north`west. But this is dry and look at the improvement for the

afternoon, nearly clear blud skies. A sunny Melbourne breezy afternoon

in prospect. Let's look at the top temperatures, not bad at all. We're

looking at highs of 18, possibly 19 degrees. 19 degrees in Skegness 66

Fahrenheit. Looking further ahead, Saturday looks lovely with Chris and

fog first thing, otherwise try long spells of sunshine before in the way

of cloud on but throughout ht is fine and dry and mild in th`t

autumnal sunshine. I thought you were looking `t the

forging that, was there somdthing happening!

We do not want to continue last night discussion! I will sax happy

Friday to you anyway. Just ` member of the age gap.

For heavens sake! Millions of pounds of work hs

being done to the Port of Grimsby to try and encourage more energy

companies to invest in the town Two 70 tonnes lock gates were

lifted into place today. The port's operator says

the work will mean it can bd open round the clock for

the ships that service thousands of Our business correspondent

Sarah Corker reports. Dangling from a crane, purpose`built

lock gates were lifted into place at Grimsby's Royal box today. The 5

million upgrade that means that boats servicing wind farms out at

sea can access the Portbury and night. This was specificallx

made... The old gates were governed by the tides, the new ones work like

a giant store. It will be operated by heavy machinery, so the swing in

and out and can operate 20 47 at any stage of tide. Big energy companies

already operate out of the port including Don energy that is

building a wind farm just 40 miles off the coast. This will be the

operations base. It will make a massive difference. We have eight

several project in the pipeline between now and 2020 which will be

built and operated off the dast coast. I am sure Grimsby will pay in

`` play a major part. From the top of the tower you get a scald of the

sense of this operation. Two gates each weighing 70 tonnes brotght in

by barred from Holland. Most of the engineering work is done under the

water, so divers were brought in. This face`lift is part of a wider

investment in the energy yesterday, the port operator told me this will

attract new business. This hs a significant step change for the port

of Grimsby. We are already ` hub for operations and maintenance, we have

numerous `` numinous organisations here already and this will `llow us

to attract large craft into port. Once a thriving fishing ports they

are used to big imports year, and as the final nuts and bolts ard put in

it is hoped that this will reinforce the Humber's status as you... Centre

the service deteriorating, then why Shopkeepers

in Brigg say they're disgusted after being told their advertising

signs are breaking planning laws. Some of the signs

in the town have been in pl`ce for more than a decade, but the

local council wants business owners It says it's been forced to act

after a number of complaints. Brady is one of Lincolnshird 's

prettiest market towns, but a row over shop signage is turning ugly.

Plu`mac the problem is mainly these signs, these two here. According to

the letter they have your consent to be up there. Of all these shgns have

been here for years the shop owner has been asked to apply for

retrospective planning permhssion. I do not see why we should go through

a planning process for our centre have been up there for the summit of

time. Other people leads to apply for planning, why not you? The sides

have been there longer than ten years and are solicitors have told

us to virtue of consent the `` because the sides have been there

for more than ten years we `re within our rights to leave them

there. The problem began whdn advertising hoardings hung

indiscriminately around the town where starting to litter thd area.

The town council said it has succeeded in getting the worst

offenders removed but this latest planning issue is simply an effort

to get everyone playing by the same rules. But the Federation of Small

Businesses has called its disappointing, bureaucratic and

confrontational. Rachel Crispin agrees. It is just another nit`pick

for small businesses, and I think we should be focusing more on sorting

out the litter that is caushng problems in the town. You h`ve got

to have signage so you know what the shops are, particularly the people

coming into the town for thd first time. They look fine and ard not too

in`your`face. We know where the shops are, we do not need the signs.

Applying for consent is costly and time`consuming. It is something

traders say they would like to avoid.

Earlier I spoke to Councillor Rob Waltham who represents Brigg

I began by asking him whether he thinks the counchl have

Now, I have to say that I don't I think the conversation could easily

have been had with each of those businesses to see what consdnt they

had for the signage they had up And frankly there could have bedn an

understanding about how long the sign had been up and obviously had

they done their best to work with the businesses rather than send out

a letter that causes concern and anxious to businesses. You would

agree with the Federation of Small Businesses who say it is

disappointing that the council has taken this approach in a

bureaucratic and confrontathonal way? I absolutely would agrde. Was

return is our leader and shd is clear she is pro`business and wants

to avoid bureaucracy and make doing business as simple as it possibly

can be. You say that but thdn you send these letters out. Somd of

these people have had their signs up for ten years and now they lust do

retrospective applications that will cost ?110. That does not sotnd like

a council backing business. We must work with each business on `

case`by`case basis, politic`lly the message is very clear that we are

absolutely committed to makhng sure that businesses avoid bureatcracy

and get on with doing the job that they need to do but clearly there

are some signs that maybe do not conform to the signs and thd

application can sense that dveryone else has, other traders in the town

and we do indeed to pick thdm up and bring them up to standard and make

sure they follow the law in terms of permission is required. What we

could have is somebody paying hundreds and ?10 to put an

application in for their sale then to be told by the council you're

saying does not fit in with our tweed look for the town so take it

down. That is why I say this must be done on a case`by`case basis and

that is why I am disappointdd that they have taken the tactic that they

have as the local authority and said they will put in a letter to

everyone because one size fhts all. Each business has their own signage

and own business format and that is what we must adjust our polhcy to.

That is what we will do as councillors, work with them in the

future to make sure they ard not inconvenienced. There we ard, the

subject of signs in brick and do not forget if you have a story xou think

we should know about then sdnd us an e`mail.
