In fact, I am even more determined to deliver these sport and leisure improvements for the people of Cheadle and the surrounding area. “That includes looking at plans to refurbish the existing leisure centre to deliver the practical benefits that customers and user groups need in consultation with the local sports council and other stakeholders. “These improved amenities will add to the overall sports and leisure provision in and around Cheadle and will, I hope, send a clear message to the local community that they won’t be left behind.” This comes shortly after the Council announced a £140,000 investment in better changing facilities and a refurbished bowling pavilion at Tean Road Recreation Ground.

Michael Mulhern named one change to his side that beat Leeds United with Becky Ferguson unavailable she was replaced with Jess Mett up top.  both teams struggled to get a hold on the game and adapt to the conditions on the day.  There was little goalmouth aciton in the first halfd but the best chance from open play went Boro's way as they played some slick combination passes before Millie Bell had her shot blocked From the following corner Boro had the ball in the back of the net as Armani Maxwell whipped the ball straight in with her left foot but as Boro celebrated the referee ruled out the goal seemingly for a foul on the Cheadle 'keeper.  Boro continued their spell of confidence as Millie Bell delivered a great ball into the box where Lauren Robson was waiting but she couldn't steer it on target.  After that Boro had to resist some Cheadle spells as they attempted to get the ball into the Boro area but Laura Wareham was ready for what she faced and helped Boro see the spell out.  On the brink of half-time Boro were forced into a change as Bell suffered an injury At half-time Grace Boyes was also forced off due to an injury The second half was very much the same as the first as both team struggled to get into a rhythm with the stop-start nature of the game Robson did have a good chance on goal go begging as she drove into the box with some clever footwork but the shot was blocked The subsequent corner saw a swarm of Boro bodies steer the ball on target forcing a good save from the Cheadle 'keeper Turnbull delivered a great ball minutes later and found Georgia Gibson who fired her header off the woodwork The ball was loose and there to be won by Maxwell but she came in late and was shown a second yellow card and sent Boro down to ten bringing on Kacie Elson for her debut in change for Lauren Robson Boro were penning Chealde back and looking for the goal that would surely win it but they couldn't get the goal they deserved and the game ended goalless Tickets & Hospitality Matches Shop LUTV Foundation More...

I’d go as far to say that the planners of this development have lost the plot in their traffic plan! just telling it as I see it – literally!! I think the comments about it being disgusting are a bit far and Lidl are entitled to persuade people A lot from other commenters here about NIMBYs which is such a lazy argument According to these people it’s never wrong to build anything In some countries they have proper planning laws where there is actually a plan Here it’s just a free for all to developers making minging buildings It’s not about whether Stockport is special or ‘like Belgravia’ But to me it is common sense of most people don’t want something to say no Especially if the need is basically already met Lots of city centre types don’t understand that people move to places like Stockport because they like green space there’s no wrong or right in this and we need to build But please be considerate of why many people might have genuine reasons for not wanting developments just as there are necessary reasons why they must go somewhere Reddish was supposed to have an unwanted Lidl at tha junction of Longford Road West and Gorton Road another busy junction in an urban traffic corridor which makes it a health ha@ard already No one in the council appears to have any interest I this long-standing impasse one of the existing supermarkets in the area would have shut down There is nowhere near enough customers for that many stores I’m a Cheadle Heath resident and was in favour of this development.A housing estate will not mitigate traffic flow and congestion and the eyesore factory that still sits boarded up on the a busy main road,what is the point behind that or am I too disgusting to have my own point of view.I know which party won’t be getting my vote next time around With the neighbouring Tesco and roundabout leading to the M60 a Lidl would cause traffic chaos no matter what the highway engineers say The front elevation of the store would be typically bland and plastered with adverts just like all Lidl stores or just or exploitative rhetoric by the Councillors It’s a supermarket like hundreds of others across the region in similar locations brownfield in a suburb of a growing region Do not need another supermarket already got enough well done Stockport Council Do we really need more housing It’s well known the population is falling Affordable housing is far better use for the site than another supermarket The borough claims it has a “disproportionately high number of HMOs” and is to pursuing the introduction of measures to wrestle back control The housing association is working with main contractor Caddick to build 69 social rent homes for over 55s and a GP surgery on 2.5 acres of disused land on Arrow Street in Broughton More.. xemailLeeds United Women make their much-anticipated return to the Bannister Prentice Stadium on Sunday as they host Cheadle Town in the FA WNL Division One North in an exciting encounter at the top of the table Cup duties and fixture postponements have disrupted the Whites’ league schedule since the turn of the year meaning Simon Wood’s side have only played once in the competition in 2025 where they narrowly slipped to a defeat away against Middlesbrough United find themselves third in the standings though Leeds do have a game in hand on the Cheshire outfit Since promotion to Division One North last campaign winning nine times and losing on just three occasions to currently lead the race for promotion One of those defeats did come when the two sides met earlier in the season when an early Kath Smith brace and second-half Amy Woodruff finish saw the Whites claim all three points Action from the Bannister Prentice Stadium gets underway at 2pm Supporters can watch the full match live on LUTV HERE The match will also be streamed for free across our social media channels Fans can also stay right here on leedsunited.com to follow live blog updates throughout the 90 minutes with a full match report and highlights available after the game has finished Sunday’s game kicks-off at 2pm at Garforth Town FC’s Bannister Prentice Stadium Hot food and drinks are available in the clubhouse Please keep up to date on the Whites by following @LUFCWomen on X Put in a solid display at the back. Probably deserving of a clean sheet. Booked for clattering into a Cheadle forward that unfortunately led to the Cheadle opener. Showed real perseverance in a tough and physical battle. Casually shrugged off Porteous-Williams, forcing the Cheadle forward’s shot to go way wide of the mark. Struck a low effort that had to be pushed away from the bottom corner in the first half. Provided plenty of running on Town’s left, prioritising her defensive duties, whilst getting forward when suitable. On the right flank but would come infield when Fletcher went on the overlap. Looked to have the beating of her opposite full-back at points but struggled to deliver into the box. Put a great ball into the box in the final moments but Tiripke nodded over the bar. Put loads of work in but just couldn’t quite get a hold of the ball in the midfield. The deeper of the midfield duo. Played almost as a quarterback if you like, with the game completely in front of her, she was playing short and long passes efficiently, with a fantastic weight of pass. Town attempted to get her in behind, but would be lacking supporting runs, forcing her to try and work the chance herself.

Michael Mulhern's first line-up of the season had two changes from the final pre-season game bringing in Ruby Cook and Millie Bell to replace Laura Wareham and Emma Foster and Abby Towers missing out due to suspension.  pinning Cheadle deep in their own half with some good channel balls by Bell and Grace Boyes aimed at Jess Mett.  on one occasion forcing them all the way back into their 18-yard box and subsequently clearing for a throw-in.  The newly promoted side continued to falter to Boro's press Mett soon carved out a chance for herself thanks to her off-the-ball work which was saved well by the Cheadle 'keeper.  Ending last season in fine scoring form it had to be Mett to get Boro's first goal of the season receiving the ball from a throw-in before turning onto her right foot and unleashing a fantastic curled effort into the back of the net.  but Ellen Packham and Bell coolly dealt with the deliveries into the area Mett once again found herself wide of the box on her favoured right foot and attempted a similar effort to the one that put Boro ahead only to be denied by a good block by a blue shirt.  Lauren Robson's inch-perfect passing was a delight for Boro's forwards Armani Maxwell and Mett Boro's confidence grew - on top of possession and playing fantastic football at times - but they couldn't finish Cheadle off with a goal to double the lead before the whistle blew.  The first chance was carved out by Ellen Turnbull after some good link-up with Giles to put a wicked ball into the box that no-one could apply the finishing touch to ripping a low shot that was saved well by the 'keeper Maxwell latched onto the rebound but couldn't make anything of the scraps.  Mett and Robson's link-up continued resulting in another chance for Boro's number 10 this time hitting a shot over the bar.  Cook didn't waste her first start since April making two great saves to keep Boro's lead intact tipping one over her bar and stopping another with a strong right hand Despite dominating the game Boro struggled to double their lead in the second half with Turnbull providing great chances again and again Cheadle's attempted to mount a comeback as the game ebbed on but Boro saw off their attempts and came out the other side to claim a well-deserved three points to start their season off
