A football club in the South of the Island is appealing for information after vandals targeted its facilities.

Malew AFC says on last Saturday morning (January 18) it found a large hole in a window next to the front door of the clubhouse and glass and a small rock inside the building.

According to the club, it's the second act of vandalism there in as many months and CCTV footage of the incident has now been passed on to Castletown Police Station.

It adds if you've seen anyone acting suspiciously in the Clagh Vane area between 10pm and 11.15pm last Wednesday (January 15) to get in touch with the club.
