6:36 pm
we have known for a week that constitution hill was a serious doubt, this isn't any old horse, this is the best hurdler in the world, possibly the best race race everin world, possibly the best race race ever in the world. if we could just seem a little bit more often to see how good he could be. even last year's race by nine lengths and one of the very few bankers for british trained horses. we are expecting domination of the festival, but gamson said time has just run out. ——he won last's race by nine lengths. the horse is much brighter this morning so there is good news and it is nothing serious but welfare is the greatest concern amongst racehorse owners and trainers and they said he is not going to be ready for what nicky henderson called the olympic games, and that is what the cheltenham festival is. hopefully ready for the next hurdle, a race he won easily last year, that is a big grand national meeting. so thatis is a big grand national meeting. so that is what he will be up to, hopefully fingers crossed but he is not going to be in the championship

6:38 pm
it will be difficult. well, opponents sheffield united are in dire need of points — in contrast they're bottom of the table, fighting for survival. manager chris wilder says, despite that, they're not going to set up for a draw. we have to get that balance right, we can't sit back for 95 minutes. we might get pushed back at times and we have to accept that but we want to be a threat the other way and we want to put attacking players on the pitch as well, so we want to give them some problems as well. but as i said, i don't think it needs much explaining, the form that they are in, they are massively in the title race. we try to dress it up as a cup match for us but we just say to the players, you have nothing to lose, let's go for it. let's put in a positive performance.
6:39 pm
sheffield united are in a very similar position to darmstatdt, the bundesliga side, who are also bottom of the table on 13 points. but, would united resort to what they have done? these were the scenes after darmstadt�*s 6—nil hammering at home by augsburg. they're being given a dressing down on the pitch, but that's not their manager — that's one of darmstadt�*s �*ultra' fans who was given permission to come onto the pitch and tell the players what he thought. well, they listened intently before being applauded by the rest of the supporters on their way off the pitch. the darmstadt keeper marcel schuhen — who let in five in the first half an hour — was asked about the exchange. he said �*there were clear and unambiguous words, but it wasn�*t aggressive at all. that was completely fine." fans have criticised accrington stanley after they sacked their long—serving manager john coleman and his assista ntjimmy bell. coleman, 61, was in his second spell in charge of stanley, which began in september 2014 —

new talent, and i think what�*s quite nice as we are seeing new names and new talent in the great britain team coming through. and you just want to be able to build on that confidence, so who knows, we�*ve got a whole array of athletes that are out there that haven�*t competed indoors by katrina jonnson thompson, winning that world last year, the confidence of that going in. she is so hungry for that olympic medal. they�*ve got keeley as well, so, so talented. still young, so we�*ve still got that depth. ben patterson without bronze, so we are talking about quite a number of athletes here that have got that quality, they�*ve got that hunger and who could perform in paris. before we go, you can follow sheffield united against arsenal and the bbc sport website. team news is
6:56 pm
coming up in the next few minutes. arsenal have just arrived, we just saw mikel arteta leading them in there. knowing a win would narrow there. knowing a win would narrow the gap to the top of the table for them, sheffield united desperate for points at the bottom. that is all for sportsday. thanks for watching. goodbye. hello there. much of the country had a pretty decent day today with some good spells of sunshine around. most places stayed dry, but there was wetter and breezier weather pushing into the south west of england, south wales. that rain will continue to journey northwards across much of the country during the overnight period. it will tend to weaken a little bit as it moves northwards, but it will become breezier for a time as the cloud and the rain pushes its way northwards and eastwards. behind it, skies will tend to clear, but we�*ll see a rash of showers,
6:57 pm
some of them heavy running into the channel islands and cross into southern england at times. maybe some showers pushing into northern ireland now where we have the cloud and the rain, then temperatures won�*t be as low as where they�*ll be, where skies clear, and, again, a touch of frost, maybe the odd mist or fog patches, winds fall light. then into tuesday, we�*ve got that overnight weather front pushing off in towards the north sea, another front pushing into northern ireland, western scotland, that�*ll enhance the shower activity here. could take a while for that front to clear the east coast of both scotland and england. eventually it will do, and it brightens up with plenty of sunshine. could still see a few showers towards the south and the south east of england, the odd heavier one. but most places, i think, away from these fronts, should be dry with some sunshine. top temperatures, 11 or 12 celsius once again, pretty much where we should be this time of year. into wednesday, we see this blocking area of high pressure over scandinavia begin to exert its force across the country. it will start to push the weather fronts out back into the atlantic. so i think many places should be dry on wednesday, variable cloud across scotland and eastern england. perhaps the odd shower,
6:58 pm
the odd shower perhaps for cornwall up towards northern ireland. otherwise most places should have a dry day with lots of sunshine around, and the breeze will be picking up from the south east. top temperatures again, 12 or 13 celsius. similar story on thursday, if anything, that area of high pressure just edges a bit further westwards, pushing those fronts out into the atlantic. could be a bit more cloud around generally on thursday, central, northern, eastern areas, maybe the odd shower mixed into it. but there will be some sunshine around, probably the best of it in western scotland in towards northern ireland, west wales, south west england. temperatures maybe down a touch, the breeze will be picking up, 11 celsius will be the high. friday looks like we could see more sunshine around, again a brisk southeasterly breeze. there�*s just signs of it starting to turn a bit more unsettled and a bit milder as we head into the weekend.
