2 weeks ago | camdennewjournal.co.uk | Richard Osley

CONGRATULATIONS then to Spurs and Ange Postecoglou on winning the ‘Europa League’ – of which the Tottenham manager has referred to repeatedly as a major trophy. And that’s the great thing about life, isn’t it? If it’s major to Ange and the Spurs fans, then major it is!It’s not for us to say that every half-decent team in Europe is thrown into the Champions League these days, leaving these other competitions reserved for low-thrill teams like Rangers, Bodo Glimt and Spurs. Ange says it’s major.

Rice blasts Arsenal to victory against Newcastle to seal second spot

2 weeks ago | camdennewjournal.co.uk | Richard Osley

FA Premier LeagueARSENAL 1 (Rice 55)NEWCASTLE UNITED 0HERE was a final home league game of the season which perhaps illustrated the story of a disjointed and disappointing campaign. Arsenal have rather stumbled over the line in the pursuit of second place and it was no surprise that a deadlocked match against the team looking to leapfrog them in the last knockings was settled by an individual moment of brilliance rather than the controlled dominance of the last two seasons.

Jon Rowney is Camden’s chief executiveTHERE was no white smoke billowing out of a chimney at Camden’s offices, but we have a decision in the council’s search for a new chief executive. And in the end it didn’t have to look very far after the announcement came that Jon Rowney will be promoted to the top job at the Town Hall. He is currently Camden’s executive director of corporate services and councillors were convinced he is ready for the step up to the £230,000-a-year position.
Murder on the disco dancefloor

3 weeks ago | islingtontribune.co.uk | Richard Osley

Wajahat Sheikh’s crumpled passport photo is the only picture that was ever circulatedIT is a murder case with more than 500 potential witnesses – but no charges. And as another anniversary passes next Monday, there is little hope of Wajahat Sheikh’s killer ever being traced. Twenty-three years ago the culprit delivered a fatal blow on the heaving dancefloor of the Scala nightclub in King’s Cross and escaped into the night. It had been a dropkick assault.
