:00:08. > :00:11.but will it be enough for the protesters? Tonight, tens of

:00:12. > :00:15.thousands of people, many of them sceptical, remain in Independence

:00:16. > :00:18.Square and show no sign of leaving. The plan, signed by Ukraine's

:00:19. > :00:28.president and opposition leaders, means a caretaker government within

:00:29. > :00:31.days and an early election. But as yesterday's dead were carried

:00:32. > :00:46.through Independence Square this afternoon, tensions remained high. I

:00:47. > :00:53.think this deal is not working, because they are criminals. No deals

:00:54. > :00:56.with criminals and terrorists. We'll be asking whether this peace

:00:57. > :00:57.deal really can bring an end to months of political crisis in

:00:58. > :01:00.Ukraine. Also tonight: The focus of protests,

:01:01. > :01:03.now ATOS, the company running the government's fitness to work tests,

:01:04. > :01:05.asks to end its contract early. At the hacking trial, Rebekah

:01:06. > :01:08.Brooks, the former News International boss, talks about what

:01:09. > :01:11.she calls her "car crash" private life.

:01:12. > :01:15.Disappointment for Britain's curlers, as they lose out to Canada

:01:16. > :01:19.in the men's finals. And ?300,000 a week - Wayne Rooney

:01:20. > :01:27.signs a new deal with Manchester United.

:01:28. > :01:31.In Sportsday, have Wales revived their Six Nations campaign with

:01:32. > :01:55.victory over France at the Millenium Stadium?

:01:56. > :02:01.Good evening. There's a deal tonight to end the

:02:02. > :02:04.violence in Ukraine. Exactly three months after the protests first

:02:05. > :02:07.began in the capital Kiev, the president has signed an agreement

:02:08. > :02:10.with the opposition to stop the clashes between protesters and

:02:11. > :02:14.police. This week alone, 77 people have been killed and hundreds more

:02:15. > :02:16.injured. Under the plan, which was mediated by EU foreign ministers,

:02:17. > :02:19.presidential elections have been brought forward by three months to

:02:20. > :02:22.December, the president's powers will be limited within 48 hours, and

:02:23. > :02:31.a coalition government will be formed within ten days. The question

:02:32. > :02:34.now is whether the thousands of protesters camped outside in the

:02:35. > :02:48.centre of Kiev will accept the agreement. Our Europe Editor, Gavin

:02:49. > :02:53.Hewitt, is in Kiev for us now. This was a day of continued outrage

:02:54. > :02:57.over yesterday's killings, but this was also the day when Ukraine pulled

:02:58. > :03:01.back from the brink, when the country came under huge pressure

:03:02. > :03:03.from the international community to compromise and to do a deal to stop

:03:04. > :03:17.the violence. Late afternoon, they carried the

:03:18. > :03:24.coffin is of some of those who had been shot into Independence Square.

:03:25. > :03:35.The large crowd who had supported the anti-government protests shouted

:03:36. > :03:41."heroes". On their faces, the agony of seeing 77 people killed in two

:03:42. > :03:45.days of violence. And this was also the day when the opposition came

:03:46. > :03:54.under huge international pressure to agree a deal with a president who

:03:55. > :04:00.many here regard as the enemy. The day had begun with the frenetic

:04:01. > :04:05.building of new defences. Cobbles prised from the street, passed

:04:06. > :04:11.hand-to-hand. And anti-government crowd fearful of new attacks by the

:04:12. > :04:15.police. Even as they built, they knew talks were underway with

:04:16. > :04:21.President Yanukovych, and here they were wary of any compromise. I think

:04:22. > :04:28.this deal is not working. Because they are criminals. Not any deals

:04:29. > :04:32.with criminals and terrorists. But there were signs that the

:04:33. > :04:36.government's authority was crumbling. This was a police unit

:04:37. > :04:46.from Lviv, joining the opposition, disgusted at the violence.

:04:47. > :04:49.TRANSLATION: What happened yesterday was the last drop of patients of

:04:50. > :04:55.people, of police officers, and we are here to fight against shedding

:04:56. > :04:58.more blood. Today, both sides, protesters and police, continued to

:04:59. > :05:05.buy each other across makeshift fortifications. -- continue to look

:05:06. > :05:09.at each other. It was just up the road from here yesterday that many

:05:10. > :05:11.of the shootings took place but protesters have been working

:05:12. > :05:14.overnight to rebuild their barricades, and this is the third

:05:15. > :05:18.time they have done it. When you talk to them, they are determined

:05:19. > :05:25.that the president stands down, and stands down quickly. In the

:05:26. > :05:29.parliament, government and opposition MPs had to be kept apart.

:05:30. > :05:34.But whilst they were lunging at each other, a group of EU Foreign

:05:35. > :05:40.Minister 's was shuttling back and forth, negotiating a deal to end the

:05:41. > :05:45.violence. Finally, after marathon talks, they signed. The opposition

:05:46. > :05:49.had been warned by an EU minister that the alternative was martial

:05:50. > :05:53.law, so a deal was agreed ushering in new elections, a coalition

:05:54. > :05:59.government and a reduction in President's powers. I am satisfied

:06:00. > :06:07.it is the best agreement that could be had, and that it gives Ukraine a

:06:08. > :06:15.chance to return to peace, to reform, and to hopefully resume its

:06:16. > :06:19.way towards Europe. But when the opposition leaders returned to

:06:20. > :06:25.Independence Square, there was no celebration. Vitali Klitschko, one

:06:26. > :06:30.of the leaders, was drowned out with bullying and cries of" traitor".

:06:31. > :06:36.Yes, Ukraine has an agreement, but not much trust on either side.

:06:37. > :06:39.Independence Square in Kiev has been the focus of the crisis, with

:06:40. > :06:42.thousands of protesters camped there for the last three months. But it's

:06:43. > :06:45.not the only place to have seen eruptions of violence. Protests

:06:46. > :06:49.against the government have spread to several other cities. The western

:06:50. > :06:51.city of Lviv remains in the hands of the opposition, after protesters

:06:52. > :06:55.stormed government buildings and security forces surrendered to them.

:06:56. > :07:09.Our world affairs correspondent Mark Lowen reports.

:07:10. > :07:14.They count the maters in Ukraine's Western heartland. Those from Lviv,

:07:15. > :07:19.killed in the protests in Kiev. This is where opposition to Viktor

:07:20. > :07:23.Yanukovych is strongest. Lviv has historically looked west, not least,

:07:24. > :07:26.and it is under the control of the protesters, who have taken local

:07:27. > :07:31.authority buildings and save a political deal will not wash here

:07:32. > :07:37.unless the president steps down now. But at what cost? Maria lived here

:07:38. > :07:42.with her 28-year-old fiancee. He was a Ph.D. Student. He fought and died

:07:43. > :08:03.for change, killed by a sniper on Tuesday. A few days ago we were

:08:04. > :08:10.talking. We stayed in the Ukraine. We were going to be married in a

:08:11. > :08:35.free Ukraine. The Ukraine that he was dreaming about. No corruption. I

:08:36. > :08:38.don't want to leave here. Nobody knowing if police will come to their

:08:39. > :08:57.house and take them away. Nothing has changed. I can't imagine how to

:08:58. > :09:01.accept it. She grew up as an independent Ukraine was born. Now

:09:02. > :09:05.her country has been fractured and her life tournament. Can the wounds

:09:06. > :09:08.of this week ever be healed? ? In a moment I'll be speaking to

:09:09. > :09:11.our diplomatic correspondent Bridget Kendall but first let's go back to

:09:12. > :09:20.our Europe Editor, Gavin Hewitt, in Kiev. Thousands of people still out

:09:21. > :09:26.on the streets. What is the mood? Well, the mood is cautious and wary.

:09:27. > :09:32.The problem is that quite simply there are quite a lot of people here

:09:33. > :09:35.who do not believe in the deal. The opposition was told bluntly, do a

:09:36. > :09:40.compromise or face a crackdown. So the next few days will be critical.

:09:41. > :09:44.And the key is implementation, and that is why resident Putin and

:09:45. > :09:51.President Obama will be talking tonight. -- President Putin. If this

:09:52. > :09:55.deal is to stick, it is important for the international community to

:09:56. > :09:59.stay engaged. If they do not, there are quite a few people out here who

:10:00. > :10:03.are perhaps willing it to fail, in order for them to get rid of the

:10:04. > :10:09.president immediately. Bridget Kendall, on the face of it, a

:10:10. > :10:14.breakthrough, but can the peace deal hold? Very risky days in the next

:10:15. > :10:18.few days. Incredibly challenging for the opposition leaders. It is so

:10:19. > :10:22.raw. Yesterday people on the square were being shot at. Now they are

:10:23. > :10:26.being told they have to do a deal with the leader who ostensibly gave

:10:27. > :10:30.the orders for the crackdown. The difficulty is that although there

:10:31. > :10:33.are a raft of concessions to the opposition, a national unity

:10:34. > :10:37.government, early elections, changing the constitution so the

:10:38. > :10:42.parliament is stronger, and it has a ready brought a series of new laws

:10:43. > :10:45.which changes the balance of power, the key thing is that President

:10:46. > :10:48.Yanukovych is still there and that is not what the crowd want. The

:10:49. > :10:53.difficulty is that even if he were to go, for the opposition, this is a

:10:54. > :10:57.country that has been nearly split in two, there has been a bloodbath.

:10:58. > :11:02.How can they immediately have a strong leadership told country

:11:03. > :11:06.together? Either way, it is going to be very challenging and Gavin is

:11:07. > :11:09.right, people need to stay involved. I do not think Moscow wants to be

:11:10. > :11:13.involved but the European Union will certainly need to be very involved.

:11:14. > :11:15.And you can find much more analysis of the crisis in Ukraine on the BBC

:11:16. > :11:23.News website. The private company, ATOS, which

:11:24. > :11:26.decides whether sick and disabled people are eligible for benefits,

:11:27. > :11:29.says it's seeking an early exit from the contract in part because of

:11:30. > :11:32.death threats and abuse received by staff. The firm has been strongly

:11:33. > :11:37.criticised by disability campaigners and MPs. Last summer, the Department

:11:38. > :11:42.for Work and Pensions told the company to improve the quality of

:11:43. > :11:44.its work. Labour says there's now a need for fundamental reform of the

:11:45. > :11:51.system. Here's our social affairs correspondent Reeta Chakrabarti.

:11:52. > :11:56.Public anger on the doorstep of ATOS. This week, campaigners staged

:11:57. > :12:02.protests accusing the company of unfairly assessing sick and disabled

:12:03. > :12:07.people as fit to work. After years of criticism, ATOS says it wants

:12:08. > :12:12.out, its decision partly influenced, it says, by abuse of its staff.

:12:13. > :12:17.Example, this threat posted on Twitter. If you know anyone from

:12:18. > :12:21.ATOS, kill them. The company said of the contract with the government, in

:12:22. > :12:25.its current form it's not working for claimants, the Department for

:12:26. > :12:32.Work and Pensions, 04 at 's health care -- ATOS health care. Jean says

:12:33. > :12:34.that they got her case completely wrong. She suffered an

:12:35. > :12:38.alcohol-related collapse and her doctor said she could not work but

:12:39. > :12:43.ATOS said she could, after an assessment that lasted, she said,

:12:44. > :12:46.for a few minutes. They are not going about it the right way to

:12:47. > :12:50.ascertain the truth from people. I feel the people who have problems

:12:51. > :12:56.are not getting recognised and they are getting penalised for it. Work

:12:57. > :13:00.and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith says those who can work should

:13:01. > :13:06.work and many agree with him, but questions have been mounting about

:13:07. > :13:13.the policy. Last year, MPs said 38% of appeals against ATOS were

:13:14. > :13:17.successful. Even supporters of the Minister's aims question the scale

:13:18. > :13:23.of the project. Inevitably, such a cumbersome, slow, bureaucratic

:13:24. > :13:26.process is causing delivery problems on the ground. Even if the

:13:27. > :13:30.department gets new providers in to deliver the assessments, many of the

:13:31. > :13:33.problems are still going to be there because they are to do with the

:13:34. > :13:39.nature of the assessment and the complexity of the task the

:13:40. > :13:42.government has set itself. The government has placed so-called work

:13:43. > :13:46.capability assessments under regular review and is bringing in other

:13:47. > :13:49.companies to help do the work, but this is just the latest problem with

:13:50. > :13:53.its ambitious welfare reforms. Personal independence payments, a

:13:54. > :13:57.new benefit for people with disabilities, had its roll-out

:13:58. > :14:02.delayed. Charities said terminally ill people were waiting months for

:14:03. > :14:05.payments. The most far-reaching change, universal credit, merging

:14:06. > :14:11.several benefits into one, has also been hit by delays. ATOS now wants

:14:12. > :14:18.out of a project that has become toxic, which raises new questions

:14:19. > :14:21.about the delivery of the policy. The former chief executive of News

:14:22. > :14:24.International, Rebekah Brooks, has told the phone-hacking trial that

:14:25. > :14:27.her private life was like a car crash for many years. She denied

:14:28. > :14:30.having a six-year affair with Andy Coulson, the former editor of the

:14:31. > :14:33.News of the World, but admitted to periods of physical intimacy. Mrs

:14:34. > :14:37.Brooks, Andy Coulson and five other defendants deny the charges against

:14:38. > :14:43.them. From the Old Bailey, our home editor Mark Easton reports.

:14:44. > :14:46.A bit of a car crash. That's how Rebekah Brooks described her

:14:47. > :14:49.personal life as day two of her defence focused on three men close

:14:50. > :14:55.to her - Ross Kemp, Andy Coulson and Charlie Brooks. She met soap star

:14:56. > :14:59.and TV hard man Ross Kemp in the mid-'90s, an on-off and on-again

:15:00. > :15:03.relationship. Answering questions about it, Mrs Brooks said, pretty

:15:04. > :15:06.good by 2001, and we brought up the subject of taking things more

:15:07. > :15:10.seriously and buying a house and getting married and having children.

:15:11. > :15:15.Later, the jury heard how Mrs Brooks had fertility problems.

:15:16. > :15:19.Forgive me, I also need to delve there, her barrister said.

:15:20. > :15:22.At that moment, her eyes welling up and her face flushed, Mrs Brooks

:15:23. > :15:25.asked the judge for a break and quickly left the courtroom.

:15:26. > :15:29.Shortly afterwards, Mrs Brooks was asked about her relationship with

:15:30. > :15:32.Andy Coulson. The jury heard of periods of physical intimacy with

:15:33. > :15:35.her co-accused since they first started working together at the News

:15:36. > :15:43.of the World in 1998. But she said, Andy and I weren't meant to be.

:15:44. > :15:47.The jury were reminded of a document produced by the prosecution, a

:15:48. > :15:50.letter written by Rebekah Brooks and found on her computer but apparently

:15:51. > :15:55.never sent, in which her love affair with Andy Coulson was sensationally

:15:56. > :16:00.revealed. The letter was written while she was married to Ross Kemp.

:16:01. > :16:03.At a time of hurt, she said, you come home at night after a few

:16:04. > :16:06.glasses of wine, you probably shouldn't get onto the computer, but

:16:07. > :16:12.that's what I did. I wrote my feelings down at that moment.

:16:13. > :16:15.Asked about her relationship with her co-accused and husband Charlie

:16:16. > :16:18.Brooks, she revealed the heartache of their attempts to have a child

:16:19. > :16:21.and thoughts about a surrogate pregnancy. A solution was found, the

:16:22. > :16:25.jury heard, when her mother and cousin met shopping in her hometown

:16:26. > :16:29.of Warrington. My cousin said she would do it, and she did, Mrs Brooks

:16:30. > :16:35.said. They now have a young daughter.

:16:36. > :16:39.As well as her complicated personal life, Mrs Brooks' barrister focused

:16:40. > :16:41.on her complicated professional life, taking the jury through

:16:42. > :16:45.numerous financial documents and asking what she would have known

:16:46. > :16:50.about as editor of the News of the World. As an example of her style,

:16:51. > :16:56.the paper's campaign for what became known as Sarah's Law was discussed.

:16:57. > :16:59.Describing herself as a hands-on editor, Mrs Brooks revealed how she

:17:00. > :17:04.defied the advice of Rupert Murdoch and gave a television interview to

:17:05. > :17:10.justify her stance. If you have paedophiles in society that aren't

:17:11. > :17:14.monitored, they will strike again. It was an emotional day for Mrs

:17:15. > :17:19.Brooks, which showed as she left the court in a taxi, her head dropping

:17:20. > :17:24.onto a husband's shoulder. Mark Easton, BBC News, the Old

:17:25. > :17:27.Bailey. Some farms in the south of England

:17:28. > :17:30.could take up to two years to recover from this winter's storms

:17:31. > :17:33.and floods. That's the warning from experts as farmers warn they are

:17:34. > :17:36.struggling to survive. Thousands of acres of crops are water-logged and

:17:37. > :17:42.many livestock farms are unable to operate. A ?10 million fund has been

:17:43. > :17:46.set up to help farmers get back into business. Jeremy Cooke has been to

:17:47. > :17:50.Oxfordshire to see how farmers there are coping.

:17:51. > :17:59.Beneath the floods, the crops are dying. Much of Simon Beddow's

:18:00. > :18:03.oilseed rape has been underwater since December. Not only is the leaf

:18:04. > :18:07.covered in silt, but it's starting to die as well. In the Thames flood

:18:08. > :18:13.plain, they expect this, but not for weeks on end. The impact is in the

:18:14. > :18:16.deepest places there will be no crop and the likelihood of getting any

:18:17. > :18:22.cropping in time for harvest is nonexistent. It's a write-off. It

:18:23. > :18:28.will be a write-off, yes. Already the loss in this field alone

:18:29. > :18:31.is running at ?40,000. And it's not just arable farmers who are

:18:32. > :18:34.suffering. Brian Franklin and his grandchildren are feeding his cattle

:18:35. > :18:37.on hay cut last summer, but it's hard to see where this year's crop

:18:38. > :18:46.is coming from. Brian's grassland is six feet under, and the entire herd

:18:47. > :18:49.may have to go. Disaster! Disaster, yeah, just

:18:50. > :18:52.ruined everything. It's costing me a fortune. Well, my livelihood,

:18:53. > :18:55.really. My livelihood and probably my grandchildren's livelihood, you

:18:56. > :19:00.know. That's the heartbreaker, isn't it? Well, it's terrible, to think

:19:01. > :19:08.those kids could have had a future. What future have they got?

:19:09. > :19:13.Adding to the stress, the fact that some farms are flooded for the

:19:14. > :19:15.second year running. One-in-100- year weather events are just

:19:16. > :19:20.impossible for any business to absorb. So the financial impact of

:19:21. > :19:24.this, as farmers go to the future, look forward, is going to be

:19:25. > :19:26.substantial. The Government says it's now

:19:27. > :19:32.spending a record ?2.4 billion on flood management and coastal

:19:33. > :19:35.barriers. At issue is how best to target the money to protect homes,

:19:36. > :19:40.businesses and farms too. Jeremy Cooke, BBC News, Oxfordshire.

:19:41. > :19:44.Despite the upturn in the economy and falling unemployment, there was

:19:45. > :19:47.a smaller than expected surplus in the UK's public finances in January,

:19:48. > :19:54.due to lower receipts of income and corporation tax. Official figures

:19:55. > :19:57.show the Treasury received ?4.7 billion more than it spent, compared

:19:58. > :20:03.with January last year when the figure was ?6 billion. Government

:20:04. > :20:14.borrowing over the ten months of the financial year so far is still lower

:20:15. > :20:18.than the same period last year. At the Winter Olympics in Sochi, it

:20:19. > :20:21.didn't quite go to plan for the British men's curling team. They

:20:22. > :20:27.were beaten 9-3 in the final by Canada, who won gold for the third

:20:28. > :20:30.Winter Olympics in a row. But the men's silver medal means Team GB

:20:31. > :20:33.have now won four medals in Sochi, their best ever Winter Games result

:20:34. > :20:35.since 1924. From Sochi, here's Andy Swiss.

:20:36. > :20:42.It is a sport and a team that's captured the country's imagination.

:20:43. > :20:45.As British fans flocked to the curling arena, the feel-good factor

:20:46. > :20:48.was plain to see. David Murdoch and his players had reached the final

:20:49. > :20:55.via a series of cliffhangers, but what followed proved more of a

:20:56. > :20:58.landslide. Canada 5-1 up in a flash. Well, this has got to be right.

:20:59. > :21:02.Murdoch, so unflappable until now, was suddenly making mistakes, as a

:21:03. > :21:09.shot to get Britain back in it went horribly wrong. Stop there, stop

:21:10. > :21:13.there! Oh, no! By the tiniest of margins, another one to Canada. The

:21:14. > :21:18.captain's face said it all. There was simply no way back. After so

:21:19. > :21:24.many final-stone thrillers, this one didn't get to the final end. With

:21:25. > :21:28.two still to go, Murdoch conceded. Enough is enough. Britain

:21:29. > :21:32.emphatically beaten but proud of their achievement.

:21:33. > :21:35.There's been a lot of dark days, and you know, now there's a good day, a

:21:36. > :21:42.silver medal, and that's just the most incredible thing, something

:21:43. > :21:45.I've chased for a long, long time! And although that's been a bit of a

:21:46. > :21:50.kick in the teeth today, I'm just proud of these guys. After such high

:21:51. > :21:54.hopes, then, not quite the result the British fans came for. A silver

:21:55. > :22:00.medal still a fantastic achievement, but they hoped for even better. Back

:22:01. > :22:02.in David Murdoch's home town of Lockerbie, though, any

:22:03. > :22:13.disappointment was soon outweighed by pride. Not least for his family,

:22:14. > :22:16.watching at home. I couldn't be more proud. I can't wait to see Dave on

:22:17. > :22:19.the podium tomorrow! An absolute dream come true, I am so excited.

:22:20. > :22:23.For another of Britain's medal hopes, Elise Christie, though, it

:22:24. > :22:25.was a day of yet more heartache. Disqualified in her first two

:22:26. > :22:33.events, surely it would be third time lucky. And she falls! Christie

:22:34. > :22:37.felt she was blameless for the crash in the 1000m semifinal and she would

:22:38. > :22:42.be reinstated. But she wasn't, a cruel end to her Olympics. For

:22:43. > :22:44.others, though, it was a day when even disappointment came with a

:22:45. > :22:55.silver lining. Andy Swiss, BBC News, Sochi.

:22:56. > :22:58.In the Six Nations rugby, Wales thrashed France 27-6 at the

:22:59. > :23:03.Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Wales ran in two tries, the second near

:23:04. > :23:08.the end from Sam Warburton. The was older leaves Wales, France and

:23:09. > :23:11.Ireland all on four points. -- the result leaves.

:23:12. > :23:14.Wayne Rooney has put an end to months of speculation about his

:23:15. > :23:19.future by signing a new deal with Manchester United. He'll be paid

:23:20. > :23:22.?300,000 a week. The contract will run for five and half years and now

:23:23. > :23:26.means that the striker is the highest paid player in the Premier

:23:27. > :23:32.League. Here's our sports editor, David Bond.

:23:33. > :23:36.At last, after months of uncertainty, Wayne Rooney today

:23:37. > :23:42.signed a new deal with Manchester United which makes him the best paid

:23:43. > :23:48.player in English football. Tonight he told the club's TV channel how

:23:49. > :23:54.the manager convinced him to say. I was really pleased when David Moyes

:23:55. > :23:58.coming, I've got a great relationship with him, and he's

:23:59. > :24:03.shown a lot of trust and faith in me, and I was delighted to, you

:24:04. > :24:06.know, the talks have been going for a long time now, and thankfully they

:24:07. > :24:12.are over and I am delighted to obviously be signed up. Ramage's

:24:13. > :24:17.header falls to Rooney! The new five and a half year contract is worth up

:24:18. > :24:22.to ?300,000 per week and should see the 28-year-old end his playing

:24:23. > :24:25.career at Old Trafford. For a team which has lost its air of

:24:26. > :24:32.invincibility in recent months, the move is a clear signal of intent.

:24:33. > :24:36.After such a difficult season here at Old Trafford, Wayne Rooney's

:24:37. > :24:40.record-breaking deal is a major boost for Manchester United, but

:24:41. > :24:44.with the wages paid to top players continuing to rise, it also tells us

:24:45. > :24:47.something significant about the financial state of English football.

:24:48. > :24:52.Just look at how players' salaries have exploded in the last 20 years.

:24:53. > :24:57.In 1994, Blackburn's Chris Sutton became the first player to be paid

:24:58. > :25:03.?10,000 per week. In 2001, Sol Campbell became the first star to

:25:04. > :25:12.break the ?100,000 per week barrier. Now Rooney is the first player in

:25:13. > :25:15.England to earn ?300,000 per week. The club's share price might have

:25:16. > :25:19.dipped recently, but they are still the richest team in the world, and

:25:20. > :25:25.with TV income growing, the players stand to make even more money from

:25:26. > :25:28.the English game's economic boom. Players certainly believe that they

:25:29. > :25:31.are the ones who generate the revenue for the clubs, for the

:25:32. > :25:35.league and who make it an exciting product for people to buy. At the

:25:36. > :25:37.same time, I think there's a question whether this is sustainable

:25:38. > :25:41.in longer run. Rooney hardly looked the high roller as he caught a train

:25:42. > :25:45.to London with his team-mates for tomorrow's match, but his new deal

:25:46. > :25:50.ensured he will end his career on the game's super-rich. David Bond,

:25:51. > :25:53.BBC News. That's all from us, Newsnight is

:25:54. > :25:57.starting over on BBC Two in a moment. They'll be live in Kiev

:25:58. > :25:58.assessing what chance today's deal has of restoring peace.
