Public toilet restoration approved by Chichester District Council
Chichester District Council does not legally have to provide public toilets, but leader Adrian Moss said they were important to residents, adding that the Tower Street project had been "a triumph".Councillor John Cross added: "There is a bit of toilet envy going on with other district councils because our Tower Street toilets have been given a five-star rating on Google and other district councils want the same!"The toilets set for improvement are in Bracklesham Bay in Bracklesham, Pound Road car park in Petworth, Lifeboat Way in Selsey, Northgate car park in Chichester, Avenue de Chartres car park in Chichester, Hillfield Road in Selsey, Kingfisher Parade in East Wittering and Marine Drive in West Wittering.The council will now look for a contractor to carry out the work, which will be a phased approach over the next two years, said the Local Democracy Reporting Service.

Ryanair to make free hand luggage allowance even SMALLER
RYANAIR is set to reduce the size of their hand luggage allowance. The budget carrier currently allows a free bag the size of 40cm x 25cm x 20cm into the cabin, which fits underneath the seat in front and is around 20 litres. However, new rules will reduce this to just 40cm x 30cm x 15cm, the Independent reports which is just 18 litres. Anyone with a bag that fits the new rules, will no longer be able to use it. Not only that, but all airports would need to change the size of their baggage sizers to be able to check them. The new rules are expected to be rolled out by the end of October this year. Ourania Georgoutsakou, Managing Director of Airlines for Europe (A4E) of which Ryanair is included, said: "This will align A4E members with the decision of member states made last month and bring more clarity to passengers across Europe. "From city-hoppers to family travellers, everyone will benefit from the same clear rule across our members' networks.' The size reduction comes amid the new EU rules set to be introduced which will ban airlines from charging for small carry on bags. This means passengers would be allowed a small cabin bag weighing up to 7kg, and no more than 100cm. The rules hope to simplify the travel process, with a common standard across the board for carry-on luggage. A Department for Transport spokeswoman said: 'We want to make sure passengers can travel with ease, which is why we landed a deal with the EU to allow millions more British nationals to use e-gates at airports in time for the summer holidays.' How to check in for a Ryanair flight Yet those opposing it have warned it will race plane ticket prices. Not only that, but most airlines do not have the overhead locker capacity to allow all passengers a cabin bag. Airlines for Europe Managing Director Ourania Georgoutsakou told Politico: 'The European Parliament should let travellers decide what services they want, what services they pay for and, importantly, what services they don't.' Other budget airlines that don't allow free cabin bags offer a much larger underseat bag size allowance. EasyJet allows bags that are 45cm x 36cm x 20cm, and have confirmed they won't reduce their sizes. While Wizz Air allow bags up to 40cm x 30cm x 20cm. British Airways and Jet2 have the same smaller size as Ryanair, but also allow a free cabin bag, measuring 56cm x 45cm x 15cm. Earlier this year, Ryanair were forced to refund a customer £124 after it was ruled they shouldn't have charged them for their hand luggage. The Spanish court claimed that the hand luggage was an "essential part of air travel". And last October Ryanair was also fined and after two customers complained how much they had been charged for hand luggage in Spain. 2

Controversial non-league owner sacks ENTIRE board after they threatened to plunge crisis club into administration
MORECAMBE are facing administration following their relegation from the EFL after the club's board was sacked as takeover talks hit a massive roadblock. Tyson Fury's beloved Shrimps were left stranded on the financial rocks following the row between owner Jason Whittingham and his directors over the proposed sale. 1 EFL bosses gave the green light to the Panjab Warriors consortium headed by London-based businessman Kuljeet Singh Momi at the start of June. Despite the proposed new owners posing for pictures with Morecambe scarves, the deal has yet to be completed, with club directors suggesting Whittingham and his Bond Group Investments 'appear to be considering reneging on the deal'. They set Whittingham a deadline of 4pm on Tuesday, accusing him of not having the funds to meet the club's salary bill and threatening to call in the receivers. But Whittingham has now responded by booting the board - insisting it is the only way for Morecambe to find a solution to keep the club going and denying he is 'stalling' on the sale. In a statement explaining the move to fans, Whittingham said: 'There is no doubt that the Club is in a precarious position and is at a crisis point. 'We also appreciate the stress this is causing for all connected with Morecambe FC. 'As majority shareholder we are making every effort to resolve any issues that have arisen and are working to protect the best interests of the club.' He added: 'Bond Group Investments has started the process to dismiss the board in order that we can take control over the situation giving us the required additional time to ensure that the club has the best chance to avoid Administration. 'We hope the board put the interest of the club before any personal grievances and during this delicate time of negotiation to save the club, refrain from their propensity of issuing negative statements. 'The notion that Bond Group Investments is stalling is not true. We are deeply sorry for the distress and uncertainty this is causing. Abandoned EFL stadium left to rot with pitch covered in weeds just five years after hosting final match 'Bond Group Investments need to ensure that any transfer of shares, in a sale, is done in a way that holds no recourse for either the Club or Bond Group. 'The safety of the club's future is paramount and our focus is to work to find solutions to resolve the matter of staff salary and the sale of the club to avoid administration at all costs.' Whittingham promised a final outcome in the next 24 hours but 10 weeks after their 18-year EFL story came to a crashing end, the entire future of the club is under huge doubt.

Sheff Wed players not being paid 'shocking'
The head of the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Maheta Molango has called the situation at Sheffield Wednesday "shocking" and "not tolerable".Players and staff were not paid on time or in full in either May or June and owner Dejphon Chansiri is under pressure to sell the under contract with the Championship side could now look to terminate their deals, with the club being in breach of their obligations."The standard contract foresees certain kinds of situations where you can terminate your contract and this is where there is a serious and/or persistent breach. So that's what we'll be looking at," Molango said. "We've been in touch with the players. Our role is not to tell them what they need to do, (it is) to give them the tools and say, 'this is what you could do if those criteria are met'."Then it is for them to assess what they want to do, because I wouldn't take it for granted that just because certain criteria are met, automatically someone just terminates their contract. There are other considerations."We are in touch with them, it's not an easy situation as you can imagine, because ultimately, you know, people need to be paid."Particularly for me it's a bit shocking because normally this is stuff you see in other countries I have played in, but not in England."So we really want to be strong on that, and this is something that we will not tolerate and we will be very much on top of it."The Owls, who finished 12th in the Championship last season, have already been handed restrictions over spending for the next three transfer windows as a result of the payment restrictions will prevent the club from carrying out any transfers or loans which involve a fee for this summer's window and the two in restriction is currently running alongside their registration embargo which was imposed earlier in June, preventing the club from signing any new players, even free transfers, until they have paid outstanding wages in full.
