That's all from the BBC News at Six - so it's goodbye from me - | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
This is BBC Newsline and these are the headlines | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
The DUP faces more questions over its funding for a newspaper | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
You have no idea how much was spent. This was last June, you're asking me | :00:23. | :00:36. | |
to go over a little commission returns from last June. | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
The angry condemnation of gunmen who shot a 16-year-old boy. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
These are predators, operating in a community with no accountability. | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
Skulking in the shadows, running away after they've used a young boy | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
in the most horrific way. How an online threat has shut down | :00:51. | :00:51. | |
an information service We do take our security seriously. | :00:52. | :01:03. | |
We have two. Because there are people out there who are a threat to | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
us. It didn't work the last time - | :01:08. | :01:08. | |
but can a new strategy win the European Capital of Culture | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
for Northern Ireland? Ulster rugby welcome back some | :01:13. | :01:13. | |
of their key players for tomorrows Of the mild weather continues this | :01:14. | :01:28. | |
weekend, find that if there's any sunshine coming our way. | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
More questions are being asked about funding for a newspaper advert | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
which the DUP received during the Brexit | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
In a BBC interview, Arlene Foster said she did not recall how much | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
money was involved, but said it was properly accounted | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
Last year's EU referendum campaign correspondent Stephen Walker. | :01:48. | :01:59. | |
Last year's EU referendum campaign was all about claim and | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
counterclaim. The argument was about whether the UK would be better or | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
worse off being in the European Union, and advertising was seen as | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
key. During the battle for votes, the DUP took out a newspaper advert | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
to promote a pro-Brexit position. Last night on the leader's debate, | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Arlene Foster was challenged about funding during the campaign. | :02:22. | :02:30. | |
Did your party gets payment for the advertising? | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
Can you tell us here know who the donations are from? | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
I can. They're from an organisation in England was to see the union | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
kept, and to make sure we have a United Kingdom. | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Later on the BBC programme The View, the DUP leader was challenged again. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
I don't have the figure year, I done how much it was. | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
You must have some idea? I'm not here to spec out, I don't | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
have the figures. You received a large amount of | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
money, and you have no idea? I'm not saying I have no idea, I'm | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
saying it to you it was properly accounted for. | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
I'm not doubting that for a second. How much did you spend? | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
I have no idea. This was last June and you're asking me to go back over | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
delicate oral commission returns from last June. | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
What this relates to the EU referendum, the general issue of | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
payments is under much scrutiny. Stormont parties are not required to | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
reveal sources of the nations. At this donation had been made to it | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
political party in the rest of the United Kingdom, when the Electoral | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
Commission announces its findings, we would see who made that donation. | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
But because that donation for the Brexit campaign was made through a | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
Northern Irish party, we won't find out to get the money. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
Last month, the Secretary of State wrote to the little parties asking | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
for their views on whether it was time for full transparency on | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
donations. Some argue that change needs to happen immediately. | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
We would like to see full transparency, like the rest of the | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
UK, like most of the rest of the world, as soon as possible. If it | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
can be done, by the 2nd of March, so people are making informed | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
decisions. Some are suggesting the parties | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
should independently publish their donation details. | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
The party is completely have it within their get to come out and say | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
this is where the money came from and this is what it was four. It's | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
hard to believe that a division side, over ?250,000, much more than | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
urban Oscar party in Northern Ireland would ordinarily get, cannot | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
be accounted for. The DUP spokesman said there was no | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
plans to name the donor and refused to answer whether there are any | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
additional fees on top of the donation. The spokesperson said all | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
these are registered with the Electoral Commission, and details of | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
funding would be released in due course. | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
The Department of Agriculture has confirmed that its former minister, | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
Michelle O'Neill, only learned of the huge hole in the | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
Renewable Heat Incentive budget as the scheme was closing. | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
There'd been criticism of the Sinn Fein leader at Stomont | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
after it emerged her department had facilitated dozens of events for | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
farmers at which the controversial scheme was promoted along | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
The department says Mrs O'Neill only found out about the budgetary | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
pressures on the scheme when she received a letter | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
from Jonathan Bell, the then DETI minister in February 2016, | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
A gun attack on a 16-year-old boy in West Belfast has been described | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
The teenager was shot in the leg at Forest Street, | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
The attack was just 24 hours after another shooting in the area. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
The scene after the shooting. One resident described hearing something | :06:03. | :06:16. | |
outside on the street. There was a nice, and I said it must | :06:17. | :06:25. | |
be the TV. -- there was a noise. Some of the neighbours got the | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
ambulance. Like other residents, he was shocked | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
by what happened. The shooting here is the second happen in 24 hours and | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
the west of the city. Wednesday night, a man was shot and number of | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
times in both legs on the Falls Road. Police say it's too early to | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
both attacks. The shots on Wednesday night were counted on the mobile | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
phone of a passer-by. Police believe dissident republicans may be behind | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
both attacks. We are hugely concerned, as the | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
community is as well. The incident was last night was the 16-year-old | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
boys, we are calling it what this says, these are predators operating | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
in the community with no accountability, skulking the | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
shadows, running away after they've used a young boy in the most | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
horrific way. We find dissident Republicans carry out this behaviour | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
that is the time, they prey on young man, I think it's is strong starting | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
point for us,. While this may come under the title of violent dissident | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
republicans, the criminals are exposing the community, they are | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
one-day shooting drug dealers and the next day taxing them. | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
The Secretary of State described the attack as shocking and brittle. | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
Those who work in the community say they're concerned about what appears | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
to be a rise in so-called punishment shootings. | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
I'm not sure about the rise behind these shootings, but the community | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
is appalled by it. What I would say very clearly is that we condemn the | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
shootings, absolutely. Police say they've increased patrols | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
in the area and have called on the committee to help them catch those | :08:18. | :08:18. | |
responsible. It's less than 24 hours before | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
a schools cup rugby quarterfinal - but will it actually get | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
to kick off? A group representing Jewish people | :08:25. | :08:32. | |
has said it is reviewing The police are investigating, | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
as Louise Cullen reports. There are around 80 members of the | :08:35. | :08:50. | |
Jewish community in Belfast. Messages the Facebook page are | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
screened before being posted, so the threat was intercepted. The | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
community's chairman would only say the message was very anti-Semitic, | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
but because of it, details of events within the Jewish committee won't be | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
made public for now. We do take our security seriously, | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
we have too, because there are people out there who are a threat to | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
us. Of this latest incident comes 30 | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
months after 13 Jewish gays were damaged in an attack at Belfast city | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
centre synagogue. Attacks rose last year. | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
Frankly, people appear to more tolerant, but we do have nasty | :09:29. | :09:36. | |
incidents from time to time, like the desecrations of the graves. Our | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
rabbi does get some pretty hateful home calls and messages. -- phone | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
calls and messages. But compared to what is happening in Manchester and | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
London, we're quite lucky. The message has been reported to the | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
police, but while it is being investigated, the community's | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
members will have to find another way to stay in touch. | :09:58. | :09:58. | |
A police custody sergeant and a former civilian detention | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
officer charged with causing the death of a police prisoner | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
They are Sergeant Brian McKenna and Alexander McAllister. | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
A judge at Belfast Crown Court lifted the restriction | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
on reporting their names after it was challenged by the media. | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
The two men deny the manslaughter of David McGowan, who was found dead | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
in a cell at Lisburn Police Station in May 2014. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
The police are investigating allegations of misconduct and crime | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
at the service's training college at Garnerville in east Belfast. | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
A trainer at the college is being investigated for alleged | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
It's thought the same man is also being investigated about allegations | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
of an inappropriate sexual relationship with at least | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
There's to be a 12-week trial for private hire taxis to use | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
It starts on Monday and applies to lanes on east and west routes, | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
and 12-hour bus lanes in the city centre which link them. | :10:51. | :10:59. | |
With less than 24 hours before a schools cup rugby quarterfinal, | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
it's by no means certain what will happen at kick off time. | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
Friends School Lisburn are supposed to play Belfast Royal Academy, | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
but most of their team are on a half-term ski trip | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
they can't put out a team and want the Ulster Rugby Branch Schools | :11:12. | :11:28. | |
Committee to reschedule the match, but this looks unlikely. | :11:29. | :11:30. | |
For the first time in seven years, Friends School rugby team made it to | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
the quarter finals of the schools rugby cup. At the moment, filling | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
the fixture is the least of their worries. Last Saturday, nearly all | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
of the first 15 left the school here to go to Austria on a half term ski | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
trip. They are due to arrive back until tomorrow night, tonight late | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
the kick-off for the quarter final. -- the quarter final. -- they are | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
due. The school appealed to reschedule the fixture, but that was | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
refused. The school is closed have time today, but one parent said they | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
had exhausted every possibility, but can't get the players back home any | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
earlier. The statement said... Friend says it wants the committee | :12:16. | :12:42. | |
to take a decision, and repeated they are willing and able to. The | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
fixture next week. The committee's position has been that when friends | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
entered the control of recession, Ed signed a camp petition agreements, | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
committing to the dates. The committee says... | :12:58. | :13:08. | |
Late this afternoon, the Belfast Royal Academy put out a tweet saying | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
that the game was off. BBC Newsline has learned that | :13:15. | :13:16. | |
Belfast, Derry City and Strabane are to work on a joint bid to become | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
European Capital of Culture in 2023. Although the title is usually | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
awarded to a single city, the two councils say a joined-up | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
approach has a better Our arts correspondent | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
Robbie Meredith's report begins with the disappointment | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
when it was announced Belfast had lost out on a similar | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
bid over a decade back. The letter has just come through, | :13:38. | :13:52. | |
I'm sorry to say it's bag is us. We've been here before, and the | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
party fell flat. But over a decade since Belfast's last attempt failed, | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
it's now set to try again, this time with help from the north west. The | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
City Council is exploiting a combined bed with Derry, UK capital | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
culture four years ago, and Strabane. According to a Belfast to | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
cancel documents seen by the BBC, officials say a joint bid would be a | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
stronger proposition, and help share resources. But there's not much | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
time. A bit has to be made by October 2017, and would cost up to | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
?1 million to make. Councils in both cities have acted the move, so it is | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
early days, but had been told to proceed. | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
I think it's a great idea, I think anything that makes it hashtags | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
think Countrywide is a great idea. Keeping our profile high in Europe | :14:47. | :14:55. | |
at the moment is great. The council says it wants to hear | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
from artists in this process, hazard they do that? | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
A public consultation on how to do it and had to do it quickly and | :15:05. | :15:07. | |
well. This is a very much a first step, | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
but that does not make it a fantasy. A UK city is said to be European | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
capital of culture in 2023, even after Brexit. This is like Leeds and | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
Dundee have already thrown their hats into the ring, Belfast, Derry | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
and Strabane will have two more quickly to catch up, but at the | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
moment it is very much a case of better together. | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
There's been a 10% drop in the number of mortgage | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
repossession cases coming before the courts. | :15:39. | :15:39. | |
According to figures just released, there were just over | :15:40. | :15:41. | |
1100 cases initiated in Northern Ireland last year, | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
Repossession cases surged after the housing crash in 2008. | :15:44. | :15:52. | |
Labour Alternative has launched its Assembly election | :15:53. | :15:54. | |
The party is running candidates in four | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
The manifesto, called Re-Think - A Labour Movement | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
Agenda For Change, pledges to challenge | :16:07. | :16:07. | |
Orange and Green politics, oppose austerity and fight | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
In the run up to the Assembly election we are taking | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
a closer look at the leaders of the five main parties. | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
This evening, it is the turn of the SDLP Leader Colum Eastwood. | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
Our political correspondent Enda McClafferty joined him | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
on his election battle bus in Strabane. | :16:26. | :16:35. | |
We've had the Boris Bikes, the Cameroon coach, and Eddie Eastwood | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
expressed. Voice right it's modest size? | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
We only had a couple of weeks to get ready, so that's about as big as we | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
could manage. But it's and off for about us. | :16:51. | :16:58. | |
You could get all MLAs on there? But Whitegate all error in MLAs! | :16:59. | :17:06. | |
Colum Eastwood is not short of ambition, and says he has plenty of | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
time to get the SDLP back on the right road. Ceremony seats as you | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
targeting this time? I don't make public predictions | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
about seats, don't think it's very clever. | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
Be expecting to lose three seats? We're expecting a good election, we | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
want to form a Government, with any party prepared to make change happen | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
in this election. It's pretty clear that Mike Nesbitt | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
has cherished as relationship with the SDLP more then you reciprocate? | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
That's not true. What political leader goes to an opponent's | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
conference in excess beach? I did that, I think that was a brave move. | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
People tell me that. -- makes a speech. It shows that union is a | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
national song can work together. He's hoping that message can show | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
his -- convinces Dayton supporters to make it to the polls. | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
The FDL peopled -- the SDLP vote has not disappeared. I have set out a | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
plan to put the party back rebates to be. This is the first test of | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
that. I think we're going to do very well in this election. | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
To that end, he's brought back some familiar faces. | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
You're bringing two candidates out of retirement to fight this | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
election, that looks like a panic move? | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
One candidate randoms unfortunate to be elected, only a few hundred votes | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
make the difference and that election. | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
Look at us -- look at our team, it is a young team. | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
Colum Eastwood is prepared to be the face of the SDLP for some time to | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
come. Is the beard here to stay? | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
Arlene Foster doesn't like the beard, apparently, she made a strong | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
point of that in her conference speech. I think that's good enough | :19:06. | :19:07. | |
reason to keep it. He starts with rugby, | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
and another big game Ulster are boosted by the return | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
of some of their key players Irish internationals Craig Gilroy, | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
Luke Marshall and Tommy Bowe all start the game - | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
while scrum-half Ruan Pienaar will make his first | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
appearance of 2017. He will partner another player | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
who has returned from a potentially career-threatening injury, | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
as Ulster look to build All-star return to form in a fluent | :19:32. | :19:46. | |
first 40 minutes against Edinburgh last time out. -- all-star return to | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
form. And there was relief all round when the bag the one win. For one | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
player, there was a mix of the motions at the full-time whistle. | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
Peter Nelson broke his foot against the same opposition in December | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
2015, an injury that kept the 24-year-old out of the game for over | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
a year, and nearly ended his career. You have dark days, but you keep | :20:11. | :20:14. | |
focusing, you get guys have come back from long-term injuries. You | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
have to keep pushing on. There is always guys there, in the injury, | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
but to keep you pushing through. It took a long time free to get back | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
running, I had to learn how to walk again properly, and then build it | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
up. I felt really good out there on Friday night, the medical staff here | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
have done a fantastic job, and I thank them. I felt really good at | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
their just delighted to be back. In Glasgow, also face a side they | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
are morally beaten away this campaign. | :20:49. | :20:57. | |
They want to prove a point. We're expecting an onslaught, they're | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
going to be very tough. We're looking forward to it, hopefully we | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
can keep the momentum going after the Edinburgh game. It's to be | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
tough, but we're looking forward to it. | :21:10. | :21:11. | |
With some added every inspiration from the South African stars, Ulster | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
Place allocated on a run that they hope can salvage their season. | :21:17. | :21:17. | |
Come tomorrow, there will be a new name on | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
Neither of this years finalists, Carrick Rangers | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
or Ballymena United, has won it before. | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
In Carrick, the build up has been quite low key. | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
But as Mark Sidebottom reports, the market town of Ballymena has | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
Of late, there has been little to celebrate on the streets. Factory | :21:35. | :21:43. | |
closures and job losses have entered -- dented Ballymena's optimism. But | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
making it to a football final has seen a little joy return. | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
This is one they get things to about winning a frail long time. | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
People are scrambling for tickets, there's none available. The atlas | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
who will be electric. But then everybody's talking about this game | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
tomorrow. So much centres on it, this is then tested for Palomino. | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
That is one of the goals of the season! | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
Ballymena has been a team rejuvenated. | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
I did note this week this would be the first time either club would win | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
the League Cup, said there's a lot at stake. I'm sure both sets of | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
players will give it everything they've got to bring the trophy | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
back. Less than half an hour's drive away, | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
in the coastal roads around Carrick, there's little to head the biggest | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
day in this tiny club's history since the mid-1990 is is on the way. | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
But don't be conned by the lack of colour, this bunch has belief. | :22:49. | :22:55. | |
They have the better squad on paper, but we've shown we can compete with | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
squads who are again pay more for their players. Getting to any final | :23:02. | :23:08. | |
is a huge boost, particularly for the town. We've been looking forward | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
to it, and we will be prepared. His face may be as critical, but | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
does have one big concern, his first choice keeper Brian Neeson is | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
nursing a nasty rib injury, and hasn't trained this week. | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
I've just been resting since Saturday. Still a bit tender, but I | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
expect to play on Saturday. The cup final is a big deal, it's my first | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
one, and it is something I want to win for Carrick. | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
With the first choice keeper, these boys are ready for battle. The | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
message is, bring on a Ballymena, we've been waiting for a generation. | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
Should be an explosive final! And you can highlights | :23:51. | :23:51. | |
of the League Cup final on the BBC iPlayer, and we've live | :23:52. | :23:54. | |
commentary on Radio Ulster. Tomorrow's final means | :23:55. | :23:56. | |
that the Danskebank Irish Premiership programme has | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
moved to this evening. There are four games being played, | :23:59. | :24:00. | |
including league leaders Crusaders Crusaders are looking | :24:01. | :24:02. | |
to preserve their comfortable It is a nice position, but we've | :24:03. | :24:17. | |
worked very hard for it from the start of the season, I think we're | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
pretty much laid it, and it's a good place to be, up there looking down. | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
Everyone's coming after year, and then filter been excellent, working | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
really hard, tasting us down. -- Linfield have been excellent. | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
The Belfast Giants are at home tonight to the Cardiff Devils | :24:36. | :24:37. | |
in the first of two games against the league | :24:38. | :24:39. | |
The Giants lie second in the table and are looking for wins | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
It's not going to be easy, there's reason why they're top of the | :24:44. | :24:53. | |
league. We go out there and play us XML play Leicester hearts out, I'll | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
never point the finger at someone trying his heart out. We all need to | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
step up. If we do that, we're going to be fine. If the win, fantastic, | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
it really is, we play our best game, and they play their best game, | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
nothing you can do about that. It's go to be a hell of a game. | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
Graeme McDowell had a steady start in the opening | :25:19. | :25:20. | |
round of the Genesis Open in California, carding a two under | :25:21. | :25:23. | |
par round of 69 to lie five shots off the overnight lead. | :25:24. | :25:38. | |
Looks at the weather will stay miles, and tomorrow will be the | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
brighter of the two days. We should hopefully see some sunshine, and | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
given it's busy spot day, that is good news. Patchy rain on Sunday, | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
particularly in the west. Some showers today, mostly in Antrim and | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
Down, but some patchy rain edging into Southern counties. Doubtless | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
this evening, and a spell of more extensive rain edging out from the | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
west in the early hours. Breeze picking up tonight, low cloud and | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
fog on the hills, but staying miles. That can use tomorrow, temperatures | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
above average. If you're up early tomorrow, there will still be some | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
dull, damp weather lingering for a while. But by mid-morning, it will | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
be dry in most places and brightening up by lunchtime, | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
sunshine here and there. So if you're planning shopping tomorrow | :26:31. | :26:33. | |
afternoon, but agrees across the north coast, maybe some showers in | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
the north west, but lots of dry weather with the most of the | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
sunshine likely in the east. And a busy afternoon for sport tomorrow, | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
the Ulster match looks like it should be dry and quite mild, | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
temperatures are 12 degrees. If you're headed to cup final match | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
later in the day, it should still be dry in Belfast. Through tonight, not | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
to many showers around on Saturday evening, some breaks in the cloud. | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
By midnight, the cloud will thicken and lower in the west, bringing some | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
damp, drizzly weather back. Bad on Saturday night too. Saturday night a | :27:08. | :27:14. | |
dollar a day, when the conditions over the hills. Most of the drizzly | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
weather in the west, but some rain in the east too, that is where the | :27:20. | :27:24. | |
best of the weather will be. Of the two days, such David Raya day. | :27:25. | :27:28. | |
Temperatures on Monday could well hit the mid teens across eastern | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
counties of Northern Ireland. That doesn't mean we will see a lot of | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
sunshine, the mild weather continues into next week, plenty of cloud | :27:37. | :27:40. | |
around, breezy at times too, most of the rain in the northwest. | :27:41. | :27:56. | |
