You're with Newsround on Wednesday. Thanks for stopping by. Ricky and

:00:23.:00:26.

Leah with all of the stories you need to know about. Coming up...

:00:26.:00:30.

How Prince William is now at the centre of an argument over the

:00:30.:00:39.

Falkland Islands. And look out... There's a papier-mche rhino about!

:00:39.:00:47.

-- mache. But first to the row between the England footy manager

:00:47.:00:50.

Fabio Capello and the people who run the sport, the Football

:00:50.:00:52.

Association. After Capello publicly criticised them for taking the

:00:52.:00:55.

captain's armband from John Terry, people have been wondering whether

:00:55.:00:58.

the manager will lose his job. It's thought Capello's meeting the head

:00:58.:01:01.

of the FA now so I've been looking into the background of the argument.

:01:01.:01:05.

Being England manager is one of the most pressured jobs in the world.

:01:05.:01:10.

15 have tried but only a few have succeeded. Fabio Capello became

:01:10.:01:13.

manager in 2008 and hasn't had an easy ride after the team's

:01:13.:01:18.

disastrous World Cup in South Africa. June's European

:01:18.:01:20.

Championships are his last hope of winning any silverware before his

:01:20.:01:25.

contract's up. But there's now real tension between him and the FA

:01:25.:01:28.

after he publicly disagreed with their decision to take the England

:01:28.:01:37.

captaincy away from John Terry. He was angry that a decision was made

:01:37.:01:40.

before a court reached a verdict over accusations that John Terry

:01:40.:01:42.

racially abused another player. Speaking to Italian TV he expressed

:01:42.:01:47.

his feelings over the decision... He said, "I think it's right and

:01:47.:01:50.

still think it's right that John Terry should keep the captain's

:01:50.:01:52.

armband". The FA is apparently really upset over what Capello said

:01:52.:01:55.

and some people are even speculating he could lose his job

:01:55.:01:59.

over the row. But would sacking the manager before the start of a major

:01:59.:02:07.

tournament be the right thing to do? I don't think he should lose

:02:07.:02:12.

his job because he is standing behind his main man all the way and

:02:12.:02:16.

he may be right to do that. He is behind his players and that is all

:02:16.:02:23.

the players need, support of their manager. He should be sacked

:02:23.:02:27.

because the things what he has done to the team, but he is a good

:02:27.:02:33.

manager but what he done this week is a bad decision. People may

:02:33.:02:35.

disagree with how Capello has dealt with the situation but the

:02:35.:02:39.

important thing for fans is that the issue is sorted out quickly to

:02:39.:02:43.

give England the best chance of bringing home the Euro 2012 trophy.

:02:43.:02:45.

And sticking with football, the Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp

:02:45.:02:49.

has been cleared of receiving illegal payments and dodging tax.

:02:49.:02:54.

Watch out for the flashes... He was accused of accepting secret

:02:54.:02:58.

payments back when he was boss of Portsmouth and not paying tax on

:02:58.:03:01.

them. He's always denied it and the jury agreed he was not guilty.

:03:01.:03:07.

Outside court, he thanked his supporters. I have to thank the

:03:07.:03:11.

fans, especially Tottenham fans, the other night was the most moving

:03:11.:03:15.

the game I have felt personally to have them singing my name through

:03:15.:03:19.

the gay while all this was going on. But there will always be special to

:03:19.:03:23.

me. I will never forget it. It has been a nightmare, five years and

:03:23.:03:26.

this is a case they should never have come to court because it is

:03:26.:03:33.

unbelievable. -- that should. we're travelling about 8000 miles

:03:33.:03:36.

from the UK to South America and the Falkland Islands. We've told

:03:36.:03:39.

you about the argument between Britain and Argentina over who owns

:03:39.:03:42.

them, an argument that's led to war in the past. In the latest move,

:03:43.:03:45.

Argentina's president says she's going to report Great Britain to

:03:45.:03:50.

the United Nations for throwing its weight around.

:03:50.:03:54.

The Falkland Islands, half the size of Wales, look calm, quiet and

:03:54.:03:57.

peaceful but they've had a far from peaceful past. In 1982, they were

:03:57.:04:02.

at the centre of a war. Despite the islanders being British, Argentina

:04:02.:04:07.

and Britain fought over who should run the Islands. Britain won and

:04:07.:04:12.

has remained in charge ever since. But that doesn't mean the

:04:12.:04:16.

argument's over. As the 30 year anniversary of the Falklands War

:04:16.:04:19.

approaches, Argentina is letting everyone know it's not happy with

:04:19.:04:23.

the way things are. And this is the latest cause for complaint - HMS

:04:23.:04:28.

Dauntless. Brand new and state of the art, it's one of Britain's best

:04:28.:04:32.

warships and it's on its way to patrol the sea around the Falklands.

:04:32.:04:36.

Argentina says that sends the wrong message. Also, Prince William's

:04:36.:04:40.

been sent to work on the Islands for six weeks as a rescue

:04:40.:04:43.

helicopter pilot. The President of Argentina thinks sending someone

:04:43.:04:46.

who's so important to Britain is a bit like showing off and trying to

:04:47.:04:50.

put Britain's mark on the country, and there are plenty other places

:04:50.:04:55.

the Prince could work. So the row's grown and now President Cristina

:04:55.:04:57.

Fernandez de Kirchner is complaining to the United Nations,

:04:57.:05:00.

the organisation where countries get together to try to co-operate

:05:00.:05:09.

That's not going to change anything but it's a way for Argentina to

:05:09.:05:13.

carry on putting pressure on Britain. With neither side looking

:05:13.:05:18.

like backing down, nobody expects this row to come to an end. Princes

:05:18.:05:21.

William and Harry have helped pick the line-up for a special concert

:05:21.:05:24.

for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. JLS and Jessie J will perform at

:05:24.:05:28.

the event outside Buckingham Palace. And this is a computer generated

:05:28.:05:34.

image of what it'll look like. They'll be joined by other acts

:05:34.:05:38.

from the 60 years that the Queen has been on the throne. When I say

:05:38.:05:46.

London 2012, what springs to mind? Usain Bolt, Tom Daley... Ellie

:05:46.:05:50.

Symonds? What about kingfishers, dormice and toads? Because when the

:05:50.:05:53.

Olympic Park was built in East London, the organisers said they'd

:05:53.:05:57.

try to think about local wildlife as well as athletes. Joe's got this

:05:57.:06:01.

one... The construction of the Olympic Park, soon to be home of

:06:02.:06:05.

the 2012 games. But it will not just be the athletes living here,

:06:05.:06:09.

they will show the area with local wildlife. Organisers of the games

:06:09.:06:14.

of redevelop the site for the animals in mind. So how are

:06:14.:06:19.

officials green enough for the Games? Wellins have been prepared

:06:19.:06:23.

and sections of the river have been cleaned. 2 million tonnes of

:06:23.:06:27.

contaminated soil has been cleared using machines and then re-used for

:06:27.:06:30.

the rest of the building work. Construction workers have already

:06:30.:06:35.

seen some new faces. We have seen Kingfisher's, birds of prey,

:06:35.:06:38.

somebody heard a Koko about six months ago which is the first time

:06:39.:06:43.

they had heard one in London for more than a decade. They have

:06:43.:06:46.

specially built new habitats around the Olympic sides to try to

:06:46.:06:50.

encourage new species to the area. This is a kingfisher wall, they

:06:50.:06:57.

hope the birds will use them to nest in. This should attract otters

:06:57.:07:01.

for up to five miles. Part of the building work means clearing up

:07:01.:07:06.

certain areas of woodland, this place will be used for the Olympic

:07:06.:07:10.

site in -- side, but extra care is being taken to ensure the safety of

:07:10.:07:16.

dormice. If we find hibernation at nests we need to leave a buffer

:07:16.:07:20.

zone so they do not get stirred orangeade. All eyes will be on the

:07:20.:07:23.

UK during the Olympics a while the athletes are going for gold

:07:23.:07:28.

organisers are definitely going for green. You can almost see your

:07:28.:07:36.

mum's house from there, can't you? Yes, East London! How can a zoo

:07:36.:07:39.

prepare for a possible rhino escape? Using two men in a papier

:07:39.:07:42.

mache rhino of course! This training exercise has been going on

:07:42.:07:45.

in Japan. There are a lot of earthquakes in there and it's

:07:45.:07:48.

always a worry that enclosures could be damaged and animals could
