North Ferriby turn back to a familiar face to lead their rise from the ashes

North Ferriby have turned towards a familiar face to oversee their new era after reappointing Chris Bolder as manager.

Bolder, who served the club with distinction as a player, returns for a second spell in charge at Church Road.

The 36-year-old was initially handed the reins in November 2017 only to be sacked by former owner Carl Chadwick inside a year when propping up the Evostik Premier Division.

The Villagers’ subsequent liquidation brings a fresh start next season at a level still to be determined, but new chairman Les Hare has appointed Bolder to lead the revival in 2019-20.

Moped gang jailed

Members of a moped gang who carried out a string of high profile raids across London have been jailed after one of their terrifying attacks was exposed by Britain’s Got Talent judge Amanda Holden.

The footage went viral after being circulated on social media by Ms Holden, who asked the public to “call 101 or 999 if u know these scumbags”.

Judge Georgina Kent, sentencing at Kingston Crown Court, described the incident as an “exceptionally serious and shocking attempted robbery”.

The Jeremy Kyle Show has been suspended indefinitely by ITV after Monday’s episode was cancelled following the death of a guest who died shortly after filming.

A review into the episode, which will now never be screened, is being conducted by ITV with bosses suspending broadcasting and filming of the popular morning show, according to Mirror Online.

The incredible way horses helped Hull woman, 30, beat devastating cancer diagnosis

A Hull horse lover has spoken out about her battle with a killer disease and how it inspired her to help others in a similar position through equine therapy.

Sarah Stephens, 30, went to the doctors three years ago after finding a lump in her breast, and they gave her a devastating breast cancer diagnosis.

Throughout her treatment, Sarah felt like she had lost something of herself, and says she was treated differently by those around her who pitied her.

But when she spent time with her horses while in recovery, Sarah says her animals still treated her the same as before her diagnosis and gave her the strength to carry on.
