A GORNAL man has been remanded for trial by a judge after he denied sexually grooming a schoolgirl.

Matthew Southall, of Straits Road, further denied a charge of sexual activity with a child.

The 41-year-old was remanded on conditional bail by Judge Anwar Nawaz at Wolverhampton Crown Court.

The judge told Southall his trial would start on a date to be fixed - most likely in June next year.
