And the Hampshire club released a shocking statement to share details of the tragic incident on Saturday.

Bashley wrote: “Everyone connected with Bashley Football Club is devastated by the news that our player Jordan Chiedozie is currently in hospital with what is described as “life-changing, and potentially life-threatening” injuries, after a serious car crash.

“Jordan was travelling back from Saturday’s Southern League match at Tavistock with club physio Reighan Taylor, when they pulled over onto the hard-shoulder of the M27 near Southampton, to investigate a flat tyre.

“They were both outside the vehicle when it was hit heavily from behind by another car. The driver of that vehicle has been arrested for alleged “drink-driving and causing serious injury by dangerous driving.”

“Jordan was taken to Southampton Hospital suffering multiple broken bones and other physical injuries. At this time he remains in a controlled coma.

“Reighan was not hurt physically, but obviously has suffered severe trauma. She was able to use her skills to provide immediate, although in such circumstances, very basic, first aid to Jordan at the scene.

“The thoughts and prayers of everyone at the club are with Jordan and his family, and of course with Reighan, at what is a difficult time for all connected with Bashley FC.

“In view of the seriousness of the situation the club has applied to the Southern League to have Tuesday’s scheduled home match against Thatcham Town, postponed. The Southern League have respectfully agreed with the request.”

Chiedozie came through at Bournemouth and was with the club when they were in League One and the Championship.

He did not play a first-team match for the Cherries and had various loans in non-league before a stint in League Two with Cambridge United.

DEATH in Paradise fans are in for a thrilling ride this season as dramatic new images show DI Mervin Wilson investigating the shock stabbing of a game show contestant in the upcoming episode.

DI Mervin Wilson investigates a murder on a zip-line in episode 2[/caption]

In first look images from the upcoming episode, Mervin can be seen on top of a platform among trees, investigating a murder on a zip-line, while others show him, Darlene and Noami at the inspector’s shack.

The episode synopsis says: “Mervin and the team have quite the mystery on their hands when a game show contestant is stabbed during filming of the series’s grand finale.

“In a baffling turn of events, the victim is murdered in midair whilst hurtling down a zip line.

“As various members of the TV crew come under suspicion, Mervin surprises his colleagues by signing a contract to prolong his stay on Saint Marie.

“But he and Selwyn butt heads when it becomes clear Mervin has an ulterior motive for extending his visit. And it turns out that Selwyn has secrets of his own…”

Mervin has already made quite the impression on the BBC show, with his rude behaviour and attitude towards Saint Marie. 

We see him in a rush to return to London, with him making it clear that he thinks the UK is better than the Caribbean island. 

He also reveals that he only arrived on the island in order to learn the truth about his birth mother, having tracked her down to Saint Marie, but then finds out she had died.

This season of the show is the first to star Gilet, but other returning stars include Shantol Jackson, Ginny Holder, Don Warrington and Elizabeth Bourgine.

Fan-favourite JP Hooper is also set to return during the season’s run.

New characters also feature in the new season, such as Jonny Feldon, who is played by Simon Lennon, and other guest stars including David Avery, Adam James, Bhavna Limbachia, Sofia Oxenham and Joy Richardson.

Speaking to Radio Times magazine recently, Gilet discussed being the show’s first Black lead, saying: “I think to see a black lead in the most popular show on the BBC is a wonderful thing.”

Episode 2 is set to air on BBC One on Friday February 7.

THE HAMMER’S come down on a successful used car auction house after more than 30 years in business.

Arrow Motor Auctions, located in Redditch, Worcestershire, first opened in 1994.

But it closed its doors for good last week in a move that has surprised locals and those in the motor trade.

According to Car Dealer Magazine, Arrow Motor Auctions made its last sale on January 22, while the site remained open until its final day on Friday, January 31, for administrative purposes.

In that period, their final deals were completed and the last of their unsold cars were collected.

Now, the business has completely ceased trading.

Arrow Motor Auctions said: “After over 30 years of continuous trading, Arrow Motor Auctions will close its doors on January 31, 2025.

“The offices will remain open until January 31, 2025, to allow customers and clients to conclude all sales and transactions and to collect any unsold vehicles from the site.

“We would like to take this opportunity to thank both our customers and clients for their loyal support over the last three decades.”

Furthermore, a message on their website simply reads: “Arrow Motor Auctions is now closed for business.

“We would like to thank all of our past customers for their support.”

The auction house sold up to 200 vehicles each week from main agents, retail part exchanges, trade and private entries.

For more than three decades, their primary aim was to provide local vehicle re-marketing for trade and private clients.

Their client base included main agent dealerships, vehicle retailers, motor traders, local councils, finance companies, liquidators, insolvency practitioners, bailiff companies and private entrants.

They offered a wide selection of cars and other vehicles, with new stock arriving daily.

At this time, it is unclear whether the closure is permanent or whether the business will reopen at another site.

Arrow Motor Auctions wasn’t the only car-related business to close on Friday.

Highly-renowned car dealership Allen Ford in Rugby, Warwickshire, also permanently closed its sales and service operations on January 31.

The announcement has sparked confusion, as it remains unclear whether this closure is linked to Ford’s wider plans to axe 50 dealerships across the UK by 2025.

Elsewhere, Britain’s slowest-selling used cars in 2024 have been revealed – with one Hyundai model often taking over 100 days to get snapped up on dealership forecourts.

Newly released data from Auto Trader found that both BMW and Lexus are slow burners on the second-hand car market.

The wooden spoon award was scooped by the Hyundai Ioniq 6, which took an average of 125 days to sell last year.

The luxury Lexus RX comes in second place, taking 114 days to be picked up by a buyer.

In January so far, the slowest-selling car is the Honda CR-V, which takes 62 days to sell.

However, the used car market thrived in 2025, with second-hand motors selling at the fastest pace since records began in 2019.
