it. so the ref had given a penalty to your oval town, and it was kind ofa to your oval town, and it was kind of a pause in our keeper was going to the ref and complaining about something. —— yeovil. i can see from where i was standing. when i got closer i realise somebody has spat on his head and he was pointing to show the referee and i think he was trying to show him who it was or something was out—of—control. and i wa nt to something was out—of—control. and i want to get the ball out of the net and that is when somebody shouted to me black!. —— black expletive. i lost my head for a bit. i was being held back by a couple of people. we all just being held back by a couple of people. we alljust decided to leave the pitch and we felt like best thing to do. i wasjust upset more than anything. i was a really thinking about football itself. i was just kind of shocked and embarrassed. that i had to explain to my mum and my nan. it is a conversation i rather not have. splitting is like come is dirty

commit isa splitting is like come is dirty commit is a lack of respect for another human. it wouldn't happen in another human. it wouldn't happen in a normal workplace. to some people, it is theirjob and whatnot. you wa nt to it is theirjob and whatnot. you want to turn into a job and expect that kind of abuse just because you're kicking the ball around the pitch for people to watch. he said to be accepted at all. i had a phone call from somebody at the police asking me how am i doing and it lasted about ten seconds. and i said fine and she said ok, thank you. and just ended the call. nobody has reached out to me. it is not the first time this has happened in my life. all the other boys and their commit is not the first time in his happen to them either but i don't think anybody should able to tell you or. from living your dream. there are more rugby union premiership matches this evening with the regular season coming to a close this weekend.

wasps are one of those looking good for the play—offs. i spoke to one of their former players, james haskell earlier. we touched on the impact of covid, on players and clubs, and also his career that he's just charted in a warts and all autobiography. he had over ten years at the top, including 77 caps with england but he also got into a few scrapes. idida i did a lot of stuff in my life to a lwa ys i did a lot of stuff in my life to always have the story to be the number one person that said at a table with the labs having a coffee oi’ table with the labs having a coffee ora table with the labs having a coffee or a beer and sit around and telling stories and recounting tales. i enjoy that. i try to conform a few times and people thought i was ill. i try to be super quiet and very different and it just i try to be super quiet and very different and itjust didn't suit me. it didn't get the best out of me. it didn't get the best out of me. when i finally came across coach eddiejones who me. when i finally came across coach eddie jones who embrace me. when i finally came across coach eddiejones who embrace that at one of the best adamant to do that i flourish. and i'm sure if i was less controversial and weighed more money and made more sponsors and people would like me more but life would be way more boring and i would have had

the fine ipad. here we are in a bizarre year that in 2020. we are fighting to get the fine ipad. here we are in a bizarre year that is 2020. we are fighting to get this by 2020. we are fighting to get this rugby season finished, we are asking them to play more often than not.|j was very much appalled like everybody else when the quits for science zoom player welfare on hold to finish a season. because they wa nted to finish a season. because they wanted to get fans back in to make some money. it is always a trade—off in the business and life was speaking to some of the last day quite like it because they aren't doing any training. it means they are getting hammered in training so they play a scam, spent two days resting and when meeting instead of six meetings, they do a walk—through and play again. that's they play a game. they show teams can do less and still perform in teams don't have to have a million beatings are to co nta ct have to have a million beatings are to contact training for boys and some of them are quite enjoying it. it is not a sustainable model but it has been quite a bit potential awakening for a lot of coaches and team. rob actor says we have to phase out this testing of players because they are not transmitting it between players. it is doing more

harm than good. what do you make of that? if he feels it is disruptive and not party on did not test them. you have to worry about them transmitting it but infection rates are going up, death rates are going down. the nhs survive, nobody is getting tested anyway. nobody knows what is going on. bizarre rules. it is just nonsense. what is going on. bizarre rules. it isjust nonsense. fair what is going on. bizarre rules. it is just nonsense. fair play to him. james haskell with his take. don't forget the bbc sports website to keep on top. newport still leading the castle. bbc for for the first of the castle. bbc for for the first of the woman's fa cup semi finals coming up. birmingham against every ten. that's all from sportsday.

olly foster without the sports there. —— with all of the sports there. you're watching bbc news. let's talk more about the coronavirus briefings. borisjohnson says new measures to tackle the rise in coronavirus cases "will take time to feed through". at a briefing in downing street, the prime minister called for "common sense and a willingness to make sacrifices". he also warned he wouldn't hesitate to impose more restrictions if needed. in the past hour, the labour leader sir keir starmer has been giving his reaction. i think the increase in the number of cases is very concerning, we can all see that and we will have a duty to follow government rules and that's very clear that we stick to that. there has to be a national effort to prevent a second lockdown. but the government side of the bargain here is to have a very clear strategy for keeping that infection rate down and we don't see that.

clear communication, and the byword for this week is yet again confusion. test, trace and isolate needs to be fixed urgently. would you support further national restrictions which the government is not ruling out? they are not ruling them out and when they have introduced restrictions we have supported them so we will look at what they put forward but it has to be part of a coherent strategy. but we don't see that strategy at the moment. boris johnson has accused you of sniping from the sidelines. we have supported the government where it is the right thing to do. openly supported the government when is the right thing to do. we have challenged them where they are getting it wrong. he doesn't like the challenge but i'm afraid that challenge is in the national interest because with the mistakes are being made, they need to be put right. looking forward, are you, do you think national restrictions will be more likely, looking at the evidence? i hope not, but what we have

seen with the local restrictions is there are 48 areas in local restrictions and only one area, luton, has come out of restrictions. so there's need to be an urgent review as to whether these local lockdowns are working in the way intended. obviously we will listen to what the government has to say about further restrictions, we all want the infection rate to come down. that is the national interest. we're all behind that effort, but there needs to be the strategy and it needs be clear communications and test, trace and isolate still has not been fixed. the pm hinted at more press conferences going forward. is that something you'd support? we would support that. it is very important for prime minister to set out for the country what is happening and to take questions and be accountable for his decisions. apologies with the sound on the questions. much more on that during the evening. staying with that. having your holiday cancel can be

frustrating at some holiday makers have had to wait five months for a refund. our consumer affairs correspondent sarah corker has been looking into this and has more. golden beaches in the caribbean. millions of dream holidays have been ruined by the pandemic. rory and jan had their trip to barbados in april cancelled. the couple said getting a refu nd cancelled. the couple said getting a refund from tui was a battle. just a shocking way to treat people. they wouldn't let you go on holiday if he didn't pay them on time and get they would refund the money that rightly was yours. roy said he spent months trying to get two and half thousand pounds back from tui, eventually he gave up and manage to claim every friend through his credit card provider instead. a lot of people could have done with the cost of the holiday money in the bank. and while tool we were looking after themselves, hanging onto that money

other people were suffering. how do you feel about the way you have been treated for an? i get angry over it. that is caused by frustration. tooley said he cancelled 2 million holidays and his systems were overwhelmed at the height of the crisis but it is on track to clear the backlog of refunds by the end of today. anybody who's package holiday has been cancelled has the right to a full cash refund. by law, you should get your money back within 14 days, if your flight is cancelled, you are entitled to a refund within seven days. but a huge backlog has led to long delays. another frustration for travellers has been airlines encouraging them to take vouchers instead of money back plus the this year it didn't make it easy for you to get refunds. terry now has two sets of vouchers from british airways for cancelled flights to moscow in new york. they made it difficult and it still is

difficult. you have to persevere and keep calling and calling if you want money back. but they make it very easy for you to accept vouchers. the airline says it will always provide airline says it will always provide a refund if a customer is eligible. the travel industry though has been struggling to deal with the scale of this crisis, but travellers say they should not be the ones left out of pocket. one more story to bring you. a new train in town. cleaner and greener than anything seen before on britain railways with a the hydrogen powered hydro flex had his first outing with a 25 mile round trip and works. reaching speeds of 50 miles an hour while producing zero emissions. a 20 mile hydrogen powered round trip and the first for uk rail.

here we are, uk mainline, running on completely clean, green electricity. hydro fuel cell and battery. back on board, hydrogen is mixed with oxygen to produce electricity to power the motors. having trains that can run on hydrogen power means they can run where there aren't overhead wires, no electricity available, we can run trains that emit zero emissions. this is a prototype, so its maximum speed is about 50 mph. it takes most of the day to fill up its hydrogen tanks on board and then it can travel about 100 miles. the challenge now is to get all of this equipment underneath the train so we can have passengers inside and run on the surface. the aim is for paying passengers to travel on trains like this one by the end of next year. the project has a government's backing. the hope is to get it up to 200

miles normal line speed and get all the infrastructure in place will be important. that is the broader challenge, having enough hydrogen available to power trains in the future, ensuring that the hydrogen itself is sourced in a sustainable way. tom burridge, bbc news, in warwickshire. now it's time for a look at the weather with matt taylor. good evening. pretty wet out there at the moment. but things will turn at the moment. but things will turn a little bit drier through the night into tomorrow. tomorrow will be a much brighter day for many. not com pletely much brighter day for many. not completely dry but also compare to strong winds we have at the moment, it will be a day of lighter winds. stronger ones on the far edge of the weather friend bringing stronger ones on the far edge of the weatherfriend bringing rain through the evening and pushing us what you swords. still writing into the first pa rt swords. still writing into the first part of the night. in fact they to turning dry across some parts of east and scotland. one area where the rain will linger and elsewhere

you can see blue starting to diminish and it turns drier and more parts will clear us guys around across parts of northern ireland and north wales and where we can see a touch of frost to take us into tomorrow morning. so the picture for thursday morning to come a lot more in the way of saying turn around and the exception being the northern half of scotland. good to see a bit more client for a time, some rain along the far eastern coast, a few showers crop up across england, southern scotland and northern ireland and the bulk of the showers wales in the southwest as we go into the afternoon and some of those heavy and that every and many of you will spend the bulk if not all they dry and although a little bit fresher than we thought through today in temperatures in the mid teens. and to thursday, they showers keep pushing northwards. then we got to the south. all governed by what is happening with the jet stream at the moment piling across the atla ntic the moment piling across the atlantic and dipping down to the south of the uk and within that depth low pressure will get stuck in with us for a few days and that interacts with the jet stream will govern just how wet and windy it will be. at the moment it looks like

we will see quite a nasty air of low pressure develop across france and met friends have called the storm alex, where the greatest impact will be felt but potential for disruption across southern counties of england and the channel islands on friday. strong to gale force winds may be 60 miles an hour gusts and heavy rain as well, causing flooding. exact position of that rain could change a little bit. further south they winds might bea little bit. further south they winds might be a bit lighter but it is further north the wings live greater impact around the english channel. either way, northern half of the country looks predominantly dry on friday would lighter winds and some sunshine. that will change as we go into the weekend and the air low pressure still there spinning around like an old sock and a washing machine and areas of rain around and strong winds around the fringes so evenif strong winds around the fringes so even if you get the friday dry and there is potential busy heavy rain and strong winds this weekend.

hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. donald trump's family and supporters are trying to explain this. stand back and stand by. stand back and stand bylj stand back and stand by. i do not know of those in the speak but he was telling them to come up there more than happy to condemn that. in the first presidential debate donald trump failed to condemn white supremacists, called on right wing militia to stand by, and refused to promise a peaceful transfer of power. joe biden called him a liar and a clown and told him to shut up. we'll sift through 90 astonishing minutes for american democracy. we'll also update you on the esclating conflict on europe's doorstep. azerbaijan is refusing to end its military operations against armenia as it demands full control of the nagorno—karabakh region.
