train at london kings cross station, when no wheelchair assistance arrived to help her disembark. the train company says it's investigating. so, i was booked on the 7:15 train from leeds, missed it, got to the station at 7:30 and they said, don't worry, we will put on the 7"1i5. we will put on the 7:45. got into london, nobody was there to meet me. you are meant to give about five minutes for anyone to get you. i started tweeting. 16 minutes after sitting on the train, i decided there was no one coming, there was a cleaner on—board but they aren't insured or able to help, they aren't trained. i decided to crawl off, so got out of my chair, push it off, all my bags, and get off the train that way. we are on the verge of the paralympics. if another non—disabled person tells me 2012 changed the world for disabled people, i will scream. it was a brilliant games, it raised the bar, but there's

so much other stuff, just haven't changed. we shouldn't expect it to. let's talk transfers then, the clock is ticking down to the end of the summer window, is ticking down to the end of the summerwindow, much is ticking down to the end of the summer window, much like when i was doing my homework at school. some clubs are leaving it to the very last. alex howell is the man in the moment when it comes to crystal powell. newcastle, where we at? it’s powell. newcastle, where we at? it's one of powell. newcastle, where we at? it�*s one of the longest transfers of the summer, margay he and his move this summer. i understand the talks are still ongoing between his representatives and also the two clubs are trying to get the whole value here. newcastle haven't

reached that, crystal palace fc also lost his partner and her sense any deal would have to be for the right amount of money. not only the outgoing crystal dollars, it looks like he's come in from a medical event that happened today for him, also being part of a transfer chain and nico moreno has been confirmed at the signing and arsenal, another one of those long running transfers over the summer.— one of those long running transfers over the summer. we'll stay on the arsenal theme _ over the summer. we'll stay on the arsenal theme with _ over the summer. we'll stay on the arsenal theme with nick. _ over the summer. we'll stay on the arsenal theme with nick. where . over the summer. we'll stay on the | arsenal theme with nick. where are we at with ramsdell�*s move? unfortunately they've been priced out. unfortunately they've been priced out it _ unfortunately they've been priced out. it was always going to be as was described to me, a complicated and expensive deal and especially the wolves' financial restrictions. they— the wolves' financial restrictions. they have — the wolves' financial restrictions. they have tried but as it stands they— they have tried but as it stands they have — they have tried but as it stands they have failed unfortunately to

aside from sterling, there's a couple of comings and goings in the midfield at manchester united. simon stone brought me up to speed a little earlier. manchester united has agreed a deal in principle with psg for manuel

ugarte, that uruguayan midfield player. he is coming over to manchester for player. he is coming over to manchesterfor medical, mctominay player. he is coming over to manchester for medical, mctominay is going to have a medical at napoli so he's out, manuel ugarte �*s n40 £a2 million fee for manuel ugarte, there is possibility for another 8 million of add—ons and sell on close to psg, in return they will get 25 million from napoli for scott mctominay who has been at the club since he was a boy but we are back in the situation where clubs, it's more important to sell players who are home—grown because they create greater scope for signing players under the profits and sustainability rules. and just a reminder — we'll be bringing you all of those deadline day deals on friday.

the football news show will be on the bbc iplayer, red button and bbc sport website live from ten o'clock with guests michael brown, julien laurens and a host of reporters around the country. plenty of other football news to bring you, and... ..uncapped playmaker ryan gauld has been called into the scotland squad for their upcoming nations league games. the midfielder, who plays in the mls for vancouver, received his last call up ten years ago as a teenager — but never played. more transfer news with watford completing the signing of angelo 0gbonna. the 36—year—old defender was a free agent after leaving west ham united. andros townsend says he isn't sure which club owns him. he agreed to leave luton to sign for turkish side antalyaspor, but they can't register him due to a transfer ban. hear more on the monday night club on bbc sounds. just 12 days before the new season, lauren smith has resigned as manager of bristol city women. she guided them to promotion to the wsl but they were relegated after one season. 18 games in the second round of the efl cup tonight with crystal palace, fulham, leicesterand brighton hoping to avoid upets

against lower league opposition. so too are everton who host league two doncaster rovers at goodison park tonight. now, it's hardly been an ideal start to the season for everton. a 3—0 defeat to brighton followed by a 4—0 defeat at spurs means they're bottom of the premier league. only two games in, yes — but does put extra pressure on getting a result tonight? here's the fans�* view. it's really difficult to be an everton fan at the minute. this... even off the field you're not seeing anything positive happening so there was the proposal take over that fell through, and now there's a partner who is trying to sell their stake in the club. 0n the field and off the field itjust accumulates into a whole sense of negativity, doesn't it? it'sjust, ithink whole sense of negativity, doesn't it? it'sjust, i think there's whole sense of negativity, doesn't it? it's just, i think there's a real sense of frustration in the

build some positivity and come on, football is a difficult place. we went a couple of games and it will all be forgotten. you're watching sportsday, stay with us as we catch up with britain's most decorated paralympian — who expecting a very different experience compared to three years ago. the chance to have a normal games, heavy games with spectators, with supporters, with fans you know, children on the roadside. nottinghamshire seamer 0lly stone is in line for his fourth test cap, remarkably five years since his international debut. he replaces the injured mark wood for the second test against sri lanka on friday. our sports correspondentjoe wilson is at lord's. well, here at lord's this week, a remarkable story of sporting perseverance. at the age of 30 0llie stone is about to play his fourth

match, pulling at 45 95 miles an hour is the focus of his entire life. whether it's stress fracture, ecl, his body is broken down. many players years ago i'm sure would have given of the dream of playing test match cricket. but have given of the dream of playing test match cricket.— test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been _ test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been in _ test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been in my _ test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been in my eyes - test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been in my eyes to - test match cricket. but here he is. it's never been in my eyes to give | it's never been in my eyes to give that up and if my body then gave up on me i may have to step away but thankfully so far i've found a way and i can be back out there in an england shirt. and i can be back out there in an england shirt-— england shirt. screws in your vertebrae — england shirt. screws in your vertebrae wasn't _ england shirt. screws in your vertebrae wasn't it? - england shirt. screws in your vertebrae wasn't it? there i england shirt. screws in your. vertebrae wasn't it? there are england shirt. screws in your - vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l! and _ vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 and one _ vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 and one in _ vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 and one in l4. _ vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 and one in l4. just- vertebrae wasn't it? there are two, one in l3 and one in l4. just to - one in l3 and one in l4. just to stop it cracking again. there's no better feeling stop it cracking again. there's no betterfeeling i stop it cracking again. there's no better feeling i think than bowling fast or trying to both fast so i'll never stop doing that whether i pick up never stop doing that whether i pick up a nickel or not.— up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 u . up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 u- in the up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 up in the series, _ up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 up in the series, but _ up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 up in the series, but at _ up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 up in the series, but at the - up a nickel or not. anglers are 1-0 up in the series, but at the old - up in the series, but at the old trafford, you can bowl left arm her

all rounder freya kemp and back up keeper bess heath are included. heather knight called it an honour to lead the team into another world cup. there's no place either for tammy beaumont with sophia dunkley preffered. captain kate cross also misses out but will skipper a white ball tour of ireland in september. let's turn out attention to the us open tennis — where four british players begin their campaigns today. in the last few moments, katie boulter has just beaten bela russia's aliaksandra sasnovich. she had to come from a set down to do it though, a marathon opener saw both players trade several breaks of serve before sasnovich came through. boulter came fighting back as the belarusian began to falter, this double fault sending the match to a decider. and from there the british number one eased to victory — 6—1 in the third as she moves into the second round at flushing meadows.

world number one iga swiatek currently in action against lucky loser kamilla rakhimova on arthur ashe. she took the first set 6—4. currently 5—5. elsewhere, dan evans is trailing 4—5. you can listen to all the action from flushing meadows on bbc sounds and the bbc sport website right now. a tennis centre that was due to form part of sir andy murray's legacy following his retirement from the sport has been scrapped. the park of keir project in his hometown of dunblane had been led by his mother, judy. the charity, the murray play foundation, said the family remain committed to growing the sport. catriona renton reports. game, setand game, set and match. just weeks ago the paris 0lympics game, set and match. just weeks ago the paris olympics and murray played his final match in his illustrious tennis career. after the tribute that tensions that tensions build turned toward the legacy of

econo, for me and the rest of the sports stadium, have a good evening. bye—bye. —— rest of the sports sports stadium. hello there! tuesday brought us three different zones of weather across the uk, so it was quite a mixed weather picture. it was across parts of the east midlands, central, southern england, east anglia and the south east that we had the best of the day sunshine and it was warm too, temperatures reached the mid 20s in the warmest spots. but not that far away we had this stripe of rain, a slow moving weather front that brought wet weather. the front itself did move away from scotland and northern ireland for the most part after a soggy morning here in crieff and perth and kinross. at least the weather brighten up through the afternoon. now looking at the weather picture overnight tonight, here is our weak weather front, stretched across northern england, wales and into the south west of england. with that there will be some areas of low cloud, bit of mist and fog around some

of the hills and the coast, and further patches of mostly light rain. there will be some rain returning to northern ireland towards the end of the night as well. we've got these three zones of weather then for the forecast tomorrow too. first of all, our old weather front, well, it could pep up to bring one or two heavier bursts of rain, but i think more likely the heaviest rain on wednesday will be affecting northern ireland and into parts of scotland through the course of the day, but that still leaves east anglia and south east england, where it's going to be dry, sunny and warm. if anything, it could be even hotter. temperatures might reach 27 degrees in the very warmest spots. now, by the time we get to thursday, a cold front will have swept away that heat from easternmost areas of england, so temperatures will be returning back closer to average. a lot of dry weather around. a few blustery showers, though for the north—west of scotland and a few isolated showers, possibly building through the day in northern ireland and the north—west of both england and wales. but overall, thursday's not a bad kind of day. and for friday, well, there is a risk of seeing a few showers affect the northern isles for a time, thanks to this area of low pressure. but otherwise high pressure starts to build across the uk and that's going to be with us through friday

and into the weekend beyond. what that means is for most of you, it's looking dry to the end of the week. could be a few early morning mist and fog patches to clear, but otherwise some fine spells of sunshine are forecast to develop widely. temperatures again climbing into the 20s widely across england and wales. high teens for scotland and northern ireland. in that late august sunshine it should feel pleasantly warm and the sunny skies stay with us into the weekend as well. however, there isjust a small chance of a few showers coming up from france to affect southernmost areas of england on sunday.
