IT graduates are badly hit


UNEMPLOYMENT among. graduates is at its highest in nearly two decades, as thousands of graduates struggle to find work, research suggests. . Some 8.9% of those who left university last year (around 21,000) were without a


job six months later, as graduates suffered from the effects of the recession, according to a study by the Higher Education Careers Services Unit (HECSU). The last time unemployment amongst


graduates reached these kinds of levels was during 1992/93 when graduate unemploy­ ment reached 11.6%, HECSU said.


The What Do Graduates Do? research


was one of the few areas to weather the re­ cession, continuing to recruit new gradu­


is based on date collected by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), which surveyed 82% of last year’s gradu­ ates, to find who was employed, in further study, or out of work. The findings show that the public sector

ates. But new announcements of cuts in the sector could mean this is set to change. The proportion of graduates gaining


work as health professionals and associate professionals rose by 0.2% to 14.8%, while the percentage employed in the .social and welfare sector increased by 0.5% to 5.2%. But there was a 0.1% drop in the pro­ portion of students gaining employment as


• education professionals.. Charlie Ball, HECSU deputy research


director said: “Graduate unemployment hasn’t risen as high as we feared and is some way off the levels of the last recession in 1992, when it reached 11.6%. “Pro.spects for graduates in the short­


term look brighter, with unemployment, as a result of the downturn, likely to have peaked and next year we expect to sec a decline. :, . ■


“However, with the anticipated public


sector job cuts the future in the medium- term looks less clear.”

CLITHEROE Wolves Under 10s Red enjoyed a 3-0 win over Rossendale United. Wolves began the game


in command before Harry Jackson crossed and George Bland opened the scoring. Wolves keeper . James


Pendergrast then made a save before Lloyd’s shot rebounded to Matthew King'td'score. Bland was then''.denied


before a second'attempt was knocked in by the keeper. Wolves continued on the


attack, but Rossendale were far better in the second half, with Pendergrast again tested. The score- remained . 3:0


at the final whistle, howevW, with Kit Lloyd named man'of the match.


- ’; Clitheroe Wolves Under 11s


Red maintained their 100% start to the season, with a 10- 1 victory over Feniscowles on Sunday morning. Tire young Wolves made


their intentions clear from the kick-off, with a sweeping attack almost bringing a goal in the first minute. Tliey did not, need to wait


too long however for the Ojiening goal, when on three minutes, striker Nathan Colman, pounced on a perfect through ball, to slide the ball past the keeper. Tlie home side continued to dominate, and were worthy of their five-goal interval lead. The visitors did what no


other side had managed to do this season thus far, when they scored from a corner kick, fol­ lowing some good attacking play.


This seemed to spur the


young Wolves side into action again, scoring a further five goals to finish, o f f . a spir­ ited performance from their opponents.


' -■ ■ Scorers were Nathan.


Colnian (4), Juddson Hickey (2)Jack Calvert (1), Elliot Watson (1), James Scorah (1), and Daniel Holmes (1). Clitheroe Wolves Under 12s Green also went goal crazy. Tliirteen was the unlucky number for Chorley Wanderers. John Harris opened the


scoring, with Oliver Hamer helping himself to four, whilst Cliris Baird, William Pallister and man of the match Karl Lingard struck two each for the rampant Wolves. .' Tom Hillsdon and an unfor­ tunate own goal completed the rout. - ';

CHATBURN celebrated an emphatic 5-3 win over Oxenhope on Saturday - a welcome return to form af-


.ter a heavy defeat the week before.


Chatburn set out with


something to prove against a. strong Oxenhope team,


just a place below them in the league. The desire to prove a


- point was evident from the start with a fired-up Chatburn contesting every ball and putting immediate pressure on the Oxenhope goal. Chatburn’s


fast-flow­


ing football repeatedly carved open the Oxenhope defence, but the score remained level due to great goalkeeping. .The home team’s per­


severance eventually paid off after a partially-cleared Oxenhope corner paved the way for an emphatic charge from centre back McKenzie. After picking up the loose


ball on the edge of the area, McKenzie played a clever one two with Dolan, even-

tually finding himself one on one with the keeper, cooly sending him the wrong way. Chatburn’s lead was


extended in a matter of minutes when, a poorly defended corner was pun­ ished by a quick dummy from Evans, sending the defender the wrong way and leaving space for him to shoot with his weaker left foot and slot the ball in the bottom corner. Chatburn’s great start in


the first half was unfortu­ nately not mirrored at the beginning of the second. The home team soon


found themselves level after two quickfire goals from Oxenhope in the space of five minutes. Oxenhope’s revival was


short lived as Chatburn were soon back in front after a defence-splitting pass from Evans to Holgate saw his first touch in the back of the net. Chatburn capitalised on their lead with two impres­


sive goals from Ashworth. Tlie first goal came from


an acrobatic volley that flew past the static keeper, and the second came from a handball incident in the area that saw Ashworth step up to the spot, and he made no mistake. . With only minutes left on


the clock, Oxenhope scored on the counter attack. The late consolation


could not spoil the party after an impressive display from the home side. • DOG Inn’s Harry - Memorial

League clash with Black Bull on Sunday was postponed. They are scheduled to be

with Church Town also fell victim to the weather on Sunday, but in the three games to. survive the rain. Great Harwood Rovers went down 4-2 to King’s Arms, Stanley Ultras beat Helmshore Harriers 2-0, and Tavern enjoyed a 4-1


win over Ossy Refugees. This Sunday, Helmshore


Harriers host Ossy Refugees at Haslingden, King’s Arms take on Black Bull at Wilson’s, and Station host Church Town at Haslingden. The Great Harwood

WHALLEY Juniors Un­ der 8s’ early season run of victories continued at Fe­ niscowles as they defeated resolute opponents 3-0. Whalley dominated the


game from start to finish, and it was due to the fine form of the Feniscowles keeper that the teams reached half-time level. After an early scare, the


second half was much the same and it was quite a relief to the Whalley fans when Max McLoughlin put them ahead. Niall Derbyshire soon


increased the lead, and near the end McLoughlin slotted home the third. This was Whalleys fifth


victory in a row and their fourth clean sheet, and this run of results is testament to the work and team ethic within the group, and their willingness to listen and learn. In the Accrington


and District League, Whalley’s Under 12s lost 5-0 to Burnley West End, while the Under 14s drew .1-1 with Clayton Park Rangers. In the East Lancashire Alliance,


Football back years!


Volunteer Arms........3 Rimington ................4 RIMINGTON progressed through to the next round of the West Riding Chal­ lenge Cup with a hard- fought win at Halifax. The uneven surface was


not conducive to flowing, passing football,- leading to continuous inis-placed passes. Tlie East Lancashire League champions took an early lead when Jon Penman latched onto a through ball and calmly slotted past the keeper. It was the veteran striker’s


first full game of the season, although his perform­ ance suggested that he had played all year, as he led tlie .

line and brought teammates into play. The home side hit back


on 20 minutes as a cross was headed into the corner of the net, totally wrong-foot­ ing Mark Proctor. Rimington should have


rc-gained the lead sev­ eral times as Lloyd missed chance after chance, and Dinsdale also had opportu­ nities as Wliarton whipped in some great crosses. Hutchinson, Walmsiey


and Walsh all set up situ­ ations which begged to be finished but the score remained 1-1 at half-time. The second half saw Rimington prove too much


for the home side. Lloyd unselfishly laid the . ball square for Penman to ram home his second goal, and the two combined again for Lloyd to make it 3-1. The home side rallied and


rattled the bar and pres­ sured, but-the locals stood strong. Dinsdale missed a sitter from close range and then Walmsiey’s long-range effort struck a defender’s head and looped over the keeper to take the score to 4-1. The game appeared to


be won, however, two goals ■ in five minutes resulted in a frantic scramble, but Riniington clung on to progress to the next round. Manager,; V Terry


Braithwaite said: ‘.‘It was vital we won and regained some confidence, it was dif­ ficult to pass the ball on that pitch and we missed a truck- load of chances. “The result was closer


than it should have been but we’re looking forward to the next round and hoping for a good draw. We need to win our league game on Saturday at home to Colne United before a tough trip to Bentharfi in the Craven Cup. We missed Heslop, O’Neill,; Green, Kershaw and skipper Oli Mac, and if we can get those players back soon, I believe we can put a run together whicli will keep us involved in all competions.”
