but really it again fairly isolated but really it could be quite torrential across the channel is that rain drifted sly steadily south and east. the heaviest rain through the afternoon, perhaps across north—east england where it will stay quite persistent. elsewhere it is a case of sunny spells and scattered showers. temperatures similar to the last couple of days, generally ranging between 11 and 15. as we move out of thursday into friday we do it over again. the low pressure is still sitting there, still spilling these weather fronts with this strong south—westerly went in from the south—westerly went in from the south—west and we could see some further heavy rain across eastern scotland, driven in by a pressure easterly wind here in areas where we really don't need any more. 11—15 and more to come as we go into the weekend. 11-15 and more to come as we go into the weekend.— 11-15 and more to come as we go into the weekend. thank you, that's the bbc news _ into the weekend. thank you, that's the bbc news at — into the weekend. thank you, that's the bbc news at six _ into the weekend. thank you, that's the bbc news at six o'clock - into the weekend. thank you, that's the bbc news at six o'clock for - the bbc news at six o'clock for tonight. we will have much more on all those developments in the middle

hello there, welcome along. it's another busy night in the champions league. there were wins for manchester united and arsenal last night. we'll see how newcastle united, manchester city and celtic get on later this evening. all of them are 8pm kick—offs. let's start at st james' park. earlier this month, it was one of the great european nights there as they swept aside paris saint—germain to move to the top of group f. tonight, they face borussia dortmund. ian dennis and alan shearer are there for 5live. another special night in the offing here at st james' park as newcastle united take on borussia dortmund. with me is the newcastle legend alan shearer. eddie howe in his pre—match note said this is a pivotal game. do you agree with him?— you agree with him? absolutely. if the win you agree with him? absolutely. if they win tonight, _ you agree with him? absolutely. if they win tonight, they _ you agree with him? absolutely. if they win tonight, they are - you agree with him? absolutely. if they win tonight, they are without | they win tonight, they are without doubt _ they win tonight, they are without doubt in _ they win tonight, they are without doubt in the driving seat and i think— doubt in the driving seat and i think most come again here will

the early stages of the champions league. a few players are now back so they will feel boosted by that. i recall asking rogers at the start of this campaign what would be success for celtic and he said progression in europe after christmas. so clearly that is one eye on the europa league but if celtic or even to finish third, this is the kind of game, home here at celtic park in front of 60,000, they must be looking to take some kind of points from. not easy with atletico going very well but we know what this celtic park crowd can do on nights like this as well. we saw celtic fans displaying palestinian flags at hearts over the weekend. uefa take a pretty dim view of supporters displaying any political banners. what are we expecting this evening? yes, i think is it to say we are coming to be honest. the celtic fans

just hours after that hamas attack on israel, fans displaying a palestinian banner which the club distanced themselves from many supporters distanced himself from. but there is a section of celtic supporters known as the green beret using the skin to try to get other factors take palestinian flags into celtic park tonight to support palestine. you're right, you have and will not like politics and politics and sports to mix it up they will watch closely. celtic have been fighting the past four flying palestinian flags and you if it will watch closely again this evening. chris, thank you very much.

the other two sides in celtics group, feyenoord and lazio, are one of the early kick—offs. it's halftime in rotterdam. and feyenoord lead thanks to a goal from their striker santiago gimenez who'd earlier had another one ruled out for offside. feyenoord are looking for their second win in the group. there have been first half goals for barcelona in the other early kick—off. they're facing the ukrainian champions shakhtar. ferran toure put the home side ahead. barca have just added another through fermin lopez. 2—0 they lead. more tributes have been paid to bill kenwright. the club announced yesterday that their chairman had died at the age of 78 after a long battle with cancer. today, the manager sean dyche and club captain seamus coleman laid flowers outside goodison park at the dixie dean statue. kenwright, who used to own the club, had been chairman for 19 years. dyche, who was appointed by kenwright earlier this year, described him as "an amazing servant to the club". we also heard from the liverpool manager today. obviously a massive heart for the

city and _ obviously a massive heart for the city and a — obviously a massive heart for the city and a massive heart for everton _ city and a massive heart for everton. but the message he gave around _ everton. but the message he gave around the — everton. but the message he gave around the hillsboro, the speech at that time _ around the hillsboro, the speech at that time i— around the hillsboro, the speech at that time i heard about, the wrong city in _ that time i heard about, the wrong city in the — that time i heard about, the wrong city in the wrong mums, that's a really— city in the wrong mums, that's a really strong message. and with all the robbery with everton especially around _ the robbery with everton especially around the games, i don't think we have _ around the games, i don't think we have anything really any issues of each _ have anything really any issues of each other. left and right after games~ — each other. left and right after games. so thisjust each other. left and right after games. so this just shows each other. left and right after games. so thisjust shows how each other. left and right after games. so this just shows how united we are _ games. so this just shows how united we are in— games. so this just shows how united we are in these moments, and that's really— we are in these moments, and that's really big _ we are in these moments, and that's really big. and he found the absolute right words for it, so same here _ absolute right words for it, so same here my— absolute right words for it, so same here. my condolences to the family and hope _ here. my condolences to the family and hope they are ok. to the rugby world cup. england have made eight changes for their third/fourth playoff game against argentina on friday night. tom curry has kept his place. he claims to have been racially abused by south africa hooker bongi bonambi during their semifinal defeat to south africa last weekend. world rugby say they are still investigating the incident. curry has been targeted with online abuse since he made the complaint.

what is not understandable is the issues we have got. they affect that has notjust on him as well is the bit that i and we don't think really understand. and i know it seems to be going more and more like this, but it should not be. it should not be. we will wait to see what comes of that world rugby investigation into the alleged abuse. back to friday's match, it will be the last for england for ben youngs. their most—capped men's player has announced his international retirement. the test against argentina will be his 127th for his country. he made his debut 2010 when current coach steve borthwick was captain. the leicester scrum—half says he had always planned to call it a day after the world cup. i feel incredibly proud to have done it for this _

i feel incredibly proud to have done it for this long. i think it's taken a huge — it for this long. i think it's taken a huge amount of effort to do it for 13 years. _ a huge amount of effort to do it for 13 years, and it'sjust a huge amount of effort to do it for 13 years, and it's just fitting. a huge amount of effort to do it for 13 years, and it'sjust fitting. it feels _ 13 years, and it'sjust fitting. it feels right. i feel so privileged to be able _ feels right. i feel so privileged to be able to— feels right. i feel so privileged to be able to play and walk away on my terms. _ be able to play and walk away on my terms. you _ be able to play and walk away on my terms, you know? ithink you be able to play and walk away on my terms, you know? i think you see players _ terms, you know? i think you see players that — terms, you know? i think you see players that potentially don't finish — players that potentially don't finish until it gets finished for them — finish until it gets finished for them or— finish until it gets finished for them or something like that. i'm not scared _ them or something like that. i'm not scared of— them or something like that. i'm not scared of that, but itjust feels right — scared of that, but itjust feels right i'm _ scared of that, but itjust feels right. i'm ready to do it. i've always— right. i'm ready to do it. i've always had _ right. i'm ready to do it. i've always had this focus of getting to this world cup, and i never felt that after— this world cup, and i never felt that after this world cup i would need _ that after this world cup i would need to— that after this world cup i would need to carry on or anything like that _ need to carry on or anything like that so — need to carry on or anything like that. so we'll look forward to playing — that. so we'll look forward to playing club rugby and look forward to supporting the sting from a distance — to supporting the sting from a distance but it's been a great ride. wales full—back leigh halfpenny has also announced his retirement from international rugby. he'll turn out for the final time against the barbarians on the ltth of november. at the age of 3a, halfpenny has 101 caps, and his 801 points is third in the all—time list for wales behind neiljenkins and stephen jones. he also toured three times with the british and irish lions.

halfpenny said he'd made the decision with a heavy heart and it had been a huge honour and privilege to put on the welsh jersey for the past 15 years. he'll continue to play domestically, but is without a club at the moment. it does feel as if there is a changing of the guard in welsh rugby, and there are concerns about where the next generation of players will come from. one coach has warned the number of talented young players choosing to leave wales to develop their careers in england has gone "from a trickle to a flood". and a new bbc wales survey suggests a dramatic drop in the number of schools playing rugby at youth level compared to 20 years ago. wyre davies reports. they reached the world cup quarterfinals, and for much of the last two decades, the welsh men's rugby union team has been at the top. but has that success been papering over cracks in the game? one, two, three, squeeze! come on. rugby in wales is at the heart of almost every community, but here,

the game is struggling. more than 400 matches, or 13% of games, at this level in wales were cancelled last year, mainly because clubs didn't have enough players. it's perhaps most notable in youth rugby. bit of bad news. what's that? the game's been cancelled. if we don't do something now, - i dread to think what the grassroots game is going to look like in wales in ten years' time. _ and, you know, every player. on the field that plays for wales has come through a grassroots club. and it looks like schools in wales are playing much less rugby as well. 143 schools across wales responded to a bbc survey about participation in 16—18—year—old rugby. two thirds say they've run at least one senior sixth form team in the past. but of those, just under half told us they've stopped in the last 20 years. added to that, there's what's on offer across the border. state—run hartpury college

in gloucestershire play in the elite english college system. of the 15 starting players for hartpury, ten of them are from wales. ithought, coming here, i was going to pick up an english accent, but i ended up having more of a welsh one when i went home. made my decision, ijust wanted to come here and play that good rugby and get the academics. this is where the flying welsh winger louis rees—zammit gained his spurs. hartpury has facilities, top—class sport and academic standards that few places in wales can compete with. the welsh rugby union, which oversees all aspects of the game, disputes some of our figures about participation and pushes back at suggestions all it cares about is the money—making national team. the more successful the national team are, the more likely- we are to fill out this venue. and that's what generatesl the majority of the revenue that supports all of- the other programmes. i so if we can create the successfull national team, everybody benefits.

but the fear is of falling numbers at critical ages and financially stretched clubs unable to compete. in a country where rugby is almost a religion, is wales in danger of being left behind? wyre davies, bbc news. england's women face canada in their second game of the new wxv competition on friday, but next year, they could be playing in a potentially record—breaking match against new zealand at twickenham. the rfu are in talks with the black ferns about arranging a rematch of the last world cup final, which could attract a bigger crowd than the 58,500 who watched the six nations decider between england and france in april. we area we are a squad that wants to keep breaking world records, and what better place to do it than twickenham against new zealand. i think another stand—alone game, obviously the island one in the six

nations, but to have new zealand there would be a game that we would want to be involved in. let's have a quick look at some of other headlines today. the route revealed today starts in rotterdam and ends in nice rather than paris due to the olympics. britain's mark cavendish will have eight opportunities at next year's tour de france to break the stage victories record he shares with belgium legend eddie merckx. cavendish said he's "shocked at how hard this tour de france is". 17—year—old stan moody is into the last 16 of the northern ireland open. he beat gary wilson by four frames to two in belfast in what is his debut season as a professional on the tour. deontay wilder says it would be a disaster if he doesn't fight anthonyjoshua. the heavyweights are in talks for a bout next year, with the american saying he is ready to take the fight. england's cricketers are in bangalore for tomorrow's world cup match against sri lanka. now, you'd have thought this really is must—win having lost three

of their four matches so far in india. jos buttler�*s side have bean heavily beaten by new zealand, afghanistan and south africa. they look a shadow of the side that won the trophy four years ago and qualifying for the semifinals looks like a tall order, but they still have hope. in competition yet to move on as quickly as you can. and regroup. yeah, everything is a must win and we know, we have been in this position before, probably not of this degree, but we know everything is a must win and we have to get our confidence and perform well. and back and bow and feel better than we have done so far in this tournament. after sri lanka, england will play australia, and they had a record—breaking victory over the netherlands in delhi. glenn maxwell hit the fastest century in the tournament's history, and it was the the biggest world cup win by margin of runs, 309. joe lynskey reports.

he came out to bat with just 11 overs left. what came next was joy and chaos. glenn maxwell to a game for the night sky and broke a world cup record. a century against the netherlands scored in a0 balls of breathless cricket. filth. netherlands scored in 40 balls of breathless cricket.— breathless cricket. oh, that's ridiculous! _ breathless cricket. oh, that's ridiculous! that _ breathless cricket. oh, that's ridiculous! that extraordinary breathless cricket. oh, that's - ridiculous! that extraordinary shock not ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell — ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell to _ ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell to 50. _ ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell to 50. 14 _ ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell to 50. 14 balls - ridiculous! that extraordinary shock got maxwell to 50. 14 balls later, . got maxwell to 50. 1a balls later, he doubled his score. for the netherlands, it felt cruel. there world cup's been a sign of cricket's growth around the world but now all against them. the 100th came with nine fours and eight sixes. a fitting tribute for his newborn son, logan maverick maxwell. australia had made 399. it would be too much for the dutch. they were bowled out for the dutch. they were bowled out for 90, more than 300 runs short. it made this the world cup's largest

winning margin. a day of record for australia and glenn maxwell's greatest hits. the super league champions wigan warriors are among seven clubs awarded an initial grade a status as part of a radical restructure of the competition. leeds, st helens, catalans, warrington and the two hull clubs have also been given a provisional top grading. the news comes as england prepare for the second test against tonga. they can win the series, but will have to do so without superstar winger dom young, as jane dougall reports. arguably dom young was the poster boy for this series. he is suffering from a brain infection after having a sinus infection and then having to have an abscess drained. he is still in hospital. however, england managersays in hospital. however, england manager says he is recovering well and getting the best of care. his attentions are firmly focused on

we have celtic against atletico madrid and manchester city in switzerland against young boys. the news on the bbc sport website but for me and the rest of the team, it's goodbye for now. hello there. we did have some sunshine today through the midlands and wales in particular. the earlier heavy rain across southern parts of england cleared away, but it was rather cloudy in scotland and that cloud likely to linger into this evening and overnight. same, too, across parts of the north—east of england with some showery outbreaks of rain, a brisk east wind. at the same time, a weather front moving in towards northern ireland bringing some heavier outbreaks of rain, also in towards wales, the south—west of england. and as we approach midnight and the early hours of thursday morning, that wet weather pushing in towards the midlands, the north—west of england and in towards the far south—east. temperatures here overnight, a rather chilly four degrees in norwich. not as cold in scotland

compared with last night, and mild in the south—west at around 11 celsius. into thursday, a low pressure situated to our west once again bringing weather fronts, showery outbreaks of rain and some brisk winds around the south—west coast and the north and north—east coast of scotland. through the day, we've got the overnight rain continuing to track its way northwards towards the north—east of england and further showery outbreaks of rain through scotland as well. some of this wet weather could well become fairly stagnant across eastern areas through the end of the week. elsewhere on thursday, we've got some sunshine, but also a number of sharp showers and temperatures around 11—15 celsius. on friday once again, low pressure situated to the west, sending weather fronts, showery outbreaks of rain our way. there will be some brighter skies in the mix at times, too. you can see, though, certainly across parts of scotland, outbreaks of rain consistently pushing in from the north sea on those brisk east, south—east winds. elsewhere for much of england and wales, it's a bright friday, plenty of sunshine around,

but also a number of heavy showers. same, too, in towards parts of the northern ireland. temperatures similar. and then into the weekend, that area of low pressure still with us, so further weather fronts and outbreaks of rain. and at the same time, we're starting to see a bit of a north wind developing, bringing some cooler conditions to the far north of scotland. at the same time, in between, we've got this area of rain, which could cause a few issues through parts of eastern scotland. elsewhere on saturday, we've got outbreaks of rain and some sunshine through the midlands, east anglia and the north—east of england. so a rather unsettled outlook, and it stays that way through the tail end of the weekend and into the start of next week, too, with some sunshine but also showers or longer spells of rain at times. that's the forecast.
