I was down there at about 4.40 today and there were a couple of police officers and a couple of lifeguards and two other people all stood by sewage plant looking down into water and then scientific support arrived. We left then out of respect just in case...

You'll be even more pissed if every time there's police activity they post in the dead pairs post.

Or has everybody got to stop querying police activity on the top end of the wirral until the body surfaces?

It was a car, a Corsa I think, I drove past on the opposite carriageway about 19:15, on it's roof and facing the wrong way.

All quiet at 8pm when we came out of the Floral - we were at the Joytime final but left in the interval as the little person is only 6. We were parked in Perch Rock car park and didn't see anything untoward.

how is it a rumour if someone has just seen it, that is not a rumour.
so the rumours dont go on and on as someone has said what exactly it was.

Somebody said it was a truck. Somebody else said it was a corsa. One is not fact so therefore must be a rumour

THIS IS FROM THE POLICE AT SCENE WHO I HAVE MET MANY TIMES AND IS HONEST (in my eyes)
Was there when this was going on it was just a coat not mentioned if it could be linked to anything going on or not but there was nothing to see and they departed within five mins of that so couldn't have been anything else in my eyes

The coastguard found a jacket partially buried on the beach which they thought may have belonged to Robbie Crofts. It has been verified over night that this was not the case. This may account for police presence down there.

I was there around 4:45pm, just went for a quick drive in the sun and to see how the development was getting on. It was very busy and people were in the area looking over onto the beach. I have to say my first thoughts went straight to the obvious but it's been confirmed that as of 8am this morning, Robbie is still very much unaccounted for.

The Merseymagazine article appears to be the more up to date would you agree?

I wish!!!!!!

Monk..it seems to be the only reasoned coverage so far that's why I quoted it..also it is the only local form of media which has criticised the crap which some people are putting not only on this forum but on social websites such as facebook

I posted the link I posted as you were posting yours. It wasn't there when I hit reply.

Also, I don't particularly trust Mersey Mag.

fair comment Nobody

I agree it does not seem to cover as much news as the other sites but I have so far at least found it to be fairly up to date and accurate. I must admit though I hadn't even heard of it until fairly recently so I don't know how long it has been going..in some cases, particularly with some of the personal sympathy messages during the last week it comes across more as a blog than a newspaper does..however, each to his own

That's the problem, you don't know who is behind it and you don't know where they get their 'news' - anyone can set a website like that up.

I would always wait until I saw it in the likes of Globe/Wirral News/Daily Post etc.

Nobody...just been looking at the current items on merseymagazine..they are claiming 600,000 hits last month

if that is true, and one must suppose it must be checkable, that is some number of hits to get..it must be popular to get that

just on a personal note..I went to the Mathew Street Festival this year and they have a cracking piece on there at the moment about it
