monthly rainfall seen 1.5 times the monthly rainfall and there is loads more to come because here is the satellite picture from the wet weather today but if i zoom into the atlantic you can see where that system after weather system lining up waiting to come in. if we look at the rainfall accumulations, you can see through the week ahead there will be a lot more to come, particularly in western areas. eastern england, the rain will be a little bit lighter at times. overnight, outbreaks of rain turning quite heavy, some cloud quite low so some mist and fog forming on the western coasts and hills and temperatures are not really changing that much from where they are at the moment, nine or 10 celsius so a mild night and a mild start tomorrow. rain to start with in north—east scotland but otherwise brighter but they will be some heavy showers and thunderstorms and then we see rain returning to northern ireland in the afternoon. despite the cloud and rain, it will be mild, temperate is widely around 1a or 15

degrees. in the middle part of the week, another area of low pressure is with us, some strong winds with this as well. any overnight rain clears away and again we look at sunshine and showers. those showers will be heavy with some hail and thunder and be driven in by winds gusting at about 40—50 mph. mild again for england and wales, 13 or 14, again for england and wales, 13 or 1a, closerto again for england and wales, 13 or 1a, closer to average for scotland and northern ireland but with low pressure continuing to affect the uk through the rest of the week and at the weekend, we can expect further outbreaks of rain. thanks, chris. and that's bbc news at six on monday the 20th of march. the news continues here on bbc one as now it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. hello and welcome along to sportsday. i'm gavin ramjaun. behaviour towards referees under the spotlight, after red cards for fulham in the fa

willian sent off for handball, and manager marco silva given his marching orders from the touchline. it's led many commentators to call for a 10—match ban for the serb. the debate around conduct towards referees has been a focal point this season — asjoe lynsky reports. for better practises in the sport. also coming up. from delivering parcels to collecting trophy, we meet the golfer celebrating a big win. ,, meet the golfer celebrating a big win. . ., meet the golfer celebrating a big win, ,, ., , ~' meet the golfer celebrating a big win. ,, ., , ~ ., , ., , win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been — win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been a _ win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been a goal _ win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been a goal of _ win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been a goal of mine - win. still not sunk in to be honest. it has been a goal of mine to - it has been a goal of mine to achieve it. it is a dream come true. in one flash on the goalline, fulham lost a lead and lost composure, the referee went to the monitor, the coach was shown a red. less than a0 seconds later two more players got the same. and for alexander mitrovic it may not been a standard ban, he his armed and carry on the protest. the fa decides if this card will end his season ., ., ., ._ the fa decides if this card will end his season ., ., ., i. the fa decides if this card will end his season ., ., ., ., , his season you do not lay your hands on an official- — his season you do not lay your hands on an official. in _ his season you do not lay your hands on an official. in my— his season you do not lay your hands on an official. in my opinion - his season you do not lay your hands on an official. in my opinion they - on an official. in my opinion they should get a ten game ban. ten names? should get a ten game ban. ten games? absolutely, _ should get a ten game ban. ten games? absolutely, and - should get a ten game ban. ten games? absolutely, and it- should get a ten game ban. ten games? absolutely, and it will, | should get a ten game ban. ten l games? absolutely, and it will, in my opinion. _ games? absolutely, and it will, in my opinion. it _ games? absolutely, and it will, in my opinion, it will— games? absolutely, and it will, in my opinion, it will impact - games? absolutely, and it will, in my opinion, it will impact furtherl my opinion, it will impact further down the chain, at grass—roots level. down the chain, at grass-roots level. , . , . . , down the chain, at grass-roots level. , . . , ., ., level. this was awe cup quarterfinal seen round — level. this was awe cup quarterfinal

affected, dundee united clearly feeling the most aggrieved over sending off decision, there were offside decision, various big calls made by var that a number of clubs, motherwell kilmarnock, dundee united, most of the sides feeling aggrieved, lost or had points they should have won at the weekend, and also clubs near the bottom of the table, in something of a relegation fight. dundee united in particular who have had a horrible season so far feeling their game was impacted most by var and now, they, the club calling for a summit. and that could really affect teams, going forward for the rest of the season, clubs struggling like dundee united, calling for that meeting, what do you think the objective will be and the hope for that meeting and the resolution from it? i the hope for that meeting and the resolution from it?— resolution from it? i think dundee united certainly _

var is getting right. think a change of mood from the sfa, yes, we understand that clubs are frustrated and yes, there may be things to discuss, no evidence yet of that summit that dundee united are hoping for but i do detect the sfa are open to listening. for but i do detect the sfa are open to listening. the fallout from tottenham manager antonio conte's extraordinary outburst continues. the italian called his players selfish — and questioned the club's mentality for winning trophies, after they conceded two late goals to draw with bottom of the table southampton this weekend. players are said to be unhappy, and with a break in the schedule for international games, questions loom for the club's hierarchy over how long he'll continue in the hot seat for. i have never heard a manager talk about his players in these term, to completely destroy whatever last shreds of relationship that he might have with the dress room like, this

visit cardiff three days later. the games mark the start of a new era for wales, who have lostjoe allen, chris gunter, jonny williams and record goal scorer gareth bale to retirement since last year's world cup. they have been amazing for wales over the years, and have contributeded so much to you know, the success that we have had in recent year, so, we will be forever grateful for what they have brought to this team, to this nation. but, you know, things are always changing, and there is opportunities now, for other player, so much excitement with some of the players that are playing at the highest level at the moment, and can definitely, you know, make their own history with this team, and you know, this is very exciting to be part of this team and so much opportunity for us.

let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines today. staying with international football — marcus rashford will miss england's euro qualifiers with italy and ukraine over the next few days. the manchester united forward was taken off towards the end of yesterday's fa cup win over fulham. chelsea's mason mount, and newcastle goalkeeper nick pope have also withdrawn with injuries. leicester city defender jonny evans has withdrawn from the northern ireland squad and will miss their opening euro 202a qualifiers against san marino and finland, due to a hamstring injury. manager michael o'neill has named four uncapped players in his latest squad. wigan athletic have been deducted three points for failing to pay players on time. the club had been charged previously. with the punishment, suspended wigan are currently bottom of the championship, without a win in their last seven. there are seven weeks to go until cycling's first grand tour of the year, the giro d'italia, and all the race favourites are tackling the week—long tour of catalunya to prepare,

including britain's geraint thomas. but it's primoz roglic who's gained the upper hand by winning stage one, as drew savage reports. the clues for what is to come in the cycling year can often be found in the catalan hills and mountain, a sneak preview for the year ahead. the winner of the vuelta wears the rainbow strike stripe, he is playing for the giro d'italia but so is roglic. arguably the man in form after winning last weir. if you look carefully you will spot the most famous sunglasses in cycling. this could be the last year on the road for geraint thomas, she hoping to make the podium in italy for the first time. in this race the high mountains are still to come but there is a four second time bonus if you win a stage, and both rogicing lick and his opponent want it. it sets up a fascinating week of

racing, that winning smile may be seen on the podium again. last summer, a review into gymnastics across the uk found wellbeing and welfare hadn't been at the centre of british gymnastics' culture. now the four home nations governing bodies say they're coming together with a new strategy to try and change the culture in the sport. the aim is to make it more postive and learn from past mistakes. we have had the learn from the past, we are making sure that we learn from those experiences and making sure that those gymnasts who haven't had a positive experience we listen to them, we understand what the issues were, to make sure we put positive experiences at the for front. reform 25 is a commitment to this new vision and making sure that we look at our performance environments and make sure that it is safe, supportive and open to everyone. we have brought in a new team round performance culture, we are bringing in a director of coach education to focus on coaches can and support, as well as doing a safe sport campaign that you will see

over the next couple of month, believe that leap without limits will bring the difference, it will be focussed round that positive experience, focussed on bringening coach education to the forefront and at the heart of it will be young people having a great time as you can see here, and creating more opportunities, that skills, confidence and character that we knows that ticks can bring. it is hu . el knows that ticks can bring. it is hugely important, _ knows that ticks can bring. it is hugely important, obviously we have seen so _ hugely important, obviously we have seen so many people come out and use their voice. _ seen so many people come out and use their voice, and now it is time to act on _ their voice, and now it is time to act on that— their voice, and now it is time to act on that and fully change it, so it is great— act on that and fully change it, so it is great it — act on that and fully change it, so it is great it is backed by the the home _ it is great it is backed by the the home nation we can take the step together— home nation we can take the step together and the main thing is the transparency that has allowed it to happen _ transparency that has allowed it to happen. not onlyjust internal decision, _ happen. not onlyjust internal decision, it has been a lot of stakeholders including coach, judge, volunteer, _ stakeholders including coach, judge, volunteer, gymnast, everyone coming together— volunteer, gymnast, everyone coming together with ideas, have been on strategy— together with ideas, have been on strategy session days with loads of people _ strategy session days with loads of people days from men's artist tick

to women's so it is a real collaboration. in response to the leap without limits launch, gymnasts for change have issued a statement saying... "today we feel proud that the campaign work of gymnasts for change and the voices of all those who contributed to the whyte review has had a direct and meaningful impact on the future direction of the sport. to date there has been no meaningful engagement with survivors. no restorative process has been offered or entered into with survivors. the sentiment of the video is great but the reality of dealing with british gymnastics to work toward systemic and meaningful change remains very different." now, getting into sport can be more complicated if you're disabled — there are more barriers to staying active. so today paralympicsgb launched a website to match people to accessible clubs in their area. it's called every body moves. sally hurst reports. decision, it has been a lot of stakeholders including coach, judge, volunteer, gymnast, everyone coming together with ideas, have been on

strategy session days with loads of people days from men's artist tick to women's so it is a real collaboration. a polished #k578 pain video and some of the most famous faces to launch an new initiative to help disabled people to participate in sport. the barriers were the same, it is still a lack of facility, a lack of equipment and it's a lack of education and coaches that can actually include and incorporate disabled people into what they are doing and things like today are so important, because, where we are today is highlighting all the fantastic clubs that just within #1ae68d, who have passion for getting disabled people and everybody active. it is getting disabled people and everybody active.— getting disabled people and everybody active. it is all about breakin: everybody active. it is all about breaking your _ everybody active. it is all about breaking your own _ everybody active. it is all about| breaking your own expectations everybody active. it is all about - breaking your own expectations and breaking _ breaking your own expectations and breaking your own expectations and breaking your own expectations and breaking your own barrier, that is the thing. — breaking your own barrier, that is the thing, the majority of us put this little — the thing, the majority of us put this little wall up round ourself, and things we can and can't do, i 'ust and things we can and can't do, i just think— and things we can and can't do, i just think thatjust and things we can and can't do, i just think that just try it because you won't— just think that just try it because you won't regret it. easy just think that just try it because you won't regret it.— just think that just try it because you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians _ you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians to _ you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians to say _ you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians to say but _ you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians to say but this - you won't regret it. easy enough for paralympians to say but this is - paralympians to say but this is about everything. put your postcode in and you will be signposted to

and my family, so i am super proud and honoured to reach sufficient an historic award. we like to do the north east and the north proud, and yeah, i mean it is a huge honour to play for england and be a lyonness, hopefully it motivates the women in the north to do what they want to do. meanwhile in oldham, rugby legend kevin sinfield is gearing up to get the freedom of the borough tonight. it's in recognition of the millions he's raised for research into motor neurone disease. the current england rugby union defence coach has taken on a number of ultra challenges to support of his former team—mate rob burrow. and finally, this is how they're setting up the course for one of the toughest one—day races in cycling. paris—roubaix is raced over cobbles, and to keep the course clearfor the riders. they've found an unorthodox solution — goats. in three weeks' time there'll be 200 riders racing through at top speed but for now, it's being grazed by a a0—strong herd. they've tried sweeping the course, or setting fire to the weeds between the cobbles,

but it seems the goats are the most ecologically sound solution. it'll be fine, provided they can round them all up before the race comes through. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more throughout the evening. ionness, hopefully it motivates the women in the north to do what they want to do. it has been a very mild day, with temperatures in england, wales and northern ireland getting above 15 degree, scotland falling a little short, but it is going to stay mild as we head through tonight and we will see further pulses of rain, some heavy rain drifting eastwards, some heavy rain drifting eastwards, some clear spells as the breeze started to strengthen, a mild night,

temperatures between five and ten degree, into tomorrow then, this band of rain here, will continue to affect orkney and shetland through the morning, shetland not really clearing up until late. sunny spells and showers following on behind. some heavy and perhaps thundery and we will see cloud and rain returning to northern ireland as our nest system slides in at the end of the day. really mild out there though, 11 degrees for stornoway, 15 for aberdeen and also for norwich and london. staying mild for the most part towards the end of the week, more rain there the forecast. it may turn colder in the north of the uk.

anything old hello, i'm kasia madera, this is outside source. the climate time—bomb is ticking — that's the warning from the un, as scientists release their survival guide to avert disaster. humanity is on thin ice, and that ice is melting fast. floods, heat waves, melting glaciers — scientists say rapid cuts to fossil fuels could still make a difference, but time is running out. also on the programme. my dearfriend, says president putin, as he welcomes china's leader to moscow to discuss beijing's peace plan for ukraine. and turbulence on global financial markets, after the emergency take over of the troubled bank credit suisse.
