Good evening. The future of Darlington Football Club remains | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
unclear tonight as fans and players await a further statement from club | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
officials. Some fear the side could go into administration for the | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
third time in nine years. Keith Akehurst has the latest. | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
Storm clouds are gathering again over Darlington Football Club. | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Rumours abound that the Blue Square Premier League Club could go into | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
administration. A three-line statement on the club's website | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
says owner Raj Singh is meeting advisors and there will be a | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
further statement next week. The players, though, have apparently | :00:38. | :00:47. | |
:00:48. | :01:09. | ||
been using social media to vent We've been through the same | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
situation before. We thought it might have been different with Raj. | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
But the lack of communication has really bothered a lot of us this | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
time. Even amongst the turmoil, fans have | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
been buying tickets for Sunday's game against Gateshead. Here we go | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
again. There is just no stability. It is at times like this that you | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
feel sorry for the people involved in the club. If Mr Singh does bring | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
in administrators, it will be the third time it has happened to the | :01:35. | :01:45. | |
:01:45. | :01:46. | ||
Quakers in less than a decade. No one would be interviewed from the | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
club on camera. All they would do was come from what was on their | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
website. Nothing further would be said until next week. | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
A man's died in a crash on the A1 motorway in Northumberland this | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
afternoon. Two cars were involved in the accident on the northbound | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
carriageway near the Swarland turnoff. An 80-year-old man was | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
pronounced dead at the scene. A prison officer who was stabbed by | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
an inmate and left with life- threatening injuries is to meet the | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
Prisons Minister. Along with two colleagues at Durham's Frankland | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
Prison, Craig Wylde was attacked with a broken bottle by convicted | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
killer Kevan Thakrar. Last month, Newcastle Crown Court heard Thakrar | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
was suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and that he'd | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
lashed out because he feared he was about to be attacked. He was | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
cleared of two charges of attempted murder. Mr Wylde's family are now | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
calling for Thakrar to be retried. A West Cumbrian man who went | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
missing three weeks ago has been found safe and well. John Walker, | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
who's 60 and from Whitehaven, was found last night in Middlesbrough. | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
A grandmother from Washington is getting used to being able to walk | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
again after having both her legs amputated. Vivienne Bell nearly | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
died when she contracted meningitis for the second time. But now she's | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
out of her wheelchair and even managed a bit of dancing this | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
Christmas. Joanne Carter reports. Vivienne lost most of her fingers | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
as well as her legs when meningitis struck three years ago. She was a | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
hairdresser. Her husband, a professional chef, is now her carer. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
It has been a tough emotional rollercoaster for all her family. | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
So getting her prosthetic limbs signifies a giant step towards a | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
better quality of life. delighted. I really am. I just | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
thought I would never be able to manage it when I was so poorly. Now | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
that I am using my legs every day, it is like getting a new lease of | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
life. Vivienne has survived meningitis | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
twice. Once in 1983 and then again in 2008. The second time around, it | :03:45. | :03:52. | |
left her fighting for her life in a drug induced coma for nine weeks. | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
My legs were amputated from just below the knee. The problem was my | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
skin was so fine and, unfortunately, it has taken so long to heal. | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
She misses her high heels and has given away most of her shoes. But | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
this Christmas, she was able to manage a little dance on a night | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
out with friends. Something she never thought she would be able to | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
do. Joanne Carter. BBC Look North, Washington. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
There is a busy football programme over the New Year weekend. It | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
starts tonight as Carlisle travel to Huddersfield in League One, | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
while in the Premier League, Newcastle take on Liverpool at | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Anfield, hoping a �35 million transfer deal does not come back to | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
haunt them. 11 months after his shock record | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
transfer to Liverpool, the shadow of Andy Carroll still looms over | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
Tyneside despite his hometown club's surprisingly good start to | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
the season. The England striker has not found it easy to settle into | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
the Liverpool first team but his old boss says there are good | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
reasons for that. He has not really had a run in that Liverpool side. | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
Like all strikers, he probably needs a run. He is a great lad and | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
a great player. Injuries to defenders Titus Bramble | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
and Phil Bardsley along with Kieran Richardson missing training all | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
week through illness have hampered new boss Martin O'Neill's | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
preparations for Sunday's home game with leaders Manchester City. A | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
daunting task. They seemed to be a work in progress some time ago, now | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
they are the real deal. The number of points they have accumulated | :05:19. | :05:27. | |
from the games they have played is excellent. | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
Third placed Championship club Middlesbrough will hand a fitness | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
test to injured striker Marvin Emnes before chasing a 5th | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
consecutive win at home to Peterborough tomorrow. | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
The Boro boss already has half an eye on the January transfer window. | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
I think if we can add in the striking department, that will help. | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
We have really only got two at the moment. We have to buy the right | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
players for the right positions. Hartlepool, who're at Sheffield | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
United tomorrow led by the newly re-appointed Neale Cooper, will | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
honour the club's record goalscorer Ken Johnson, who died this week, at | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
Monday's home game with Scunthorpe. Mark Tulip, BBC Look North. | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
A Newcastle pub has been named among the top ten in Britain. The | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
Free Trade Inn, overlooking the River Tyne at Byker, has been named | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
in the book The Search For The Perfect Pub as a genuine Geordie | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
Institution. It praised its friendly atmosphere, quality beer | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
and decent music. A great to place to go, especially | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
when it's a bit chilly outside! Here's Trai with the weather | :06:26. | :06:34. | |
Here's Trai with the weather forecast. | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
2011 was a second mildest year on record. Still at looking mild. | :06:39. | :06:49. | |
:06:49. | :06:49. | ||
Cloudy and damp tomorrow. It will turn up chillier after that. | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
Tonight, it is dark and damp. The rain is digging its time to move | :06:56. | :07:05. | |
:07:06. | :07:06. | ||
into the North Sea. Temperatures of three to seven Celsius. Any | :07:06. | :07:14. | |
brightness will be in the north East Coast. Cumbria always in the | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
firing line for any rain coming in from the West. Tomorrow evening, it | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
looks like most of us will see the end of the rain. It will be cloudy, | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
not too cold. For New Year's Day, that is when they get the cold air | :07:30. | :07:40. | |
coming in. Just a few showers in Cumbria. A quick summary. Getting | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
chilly but bright as we see in the new year. A similar picture for | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
Cumbria. That's how it looks so far this | :07:49. | :07:51. |
