Good evening, the headlines on BBC Newsline. A mother and her two young | :00:17. | :00:26. | |
children are victims of a racist attack at their home. Crisis, what | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
crisis? The DUP reject Sinn Fein claims that power sharing is in big | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
trouble. Everybody should call their jets and | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
try to get on with the business of resolving problems rather than | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
creating them. Should some of our bus and train services be | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
privatised? One of our best known attractions is facing closure but | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
tonight campaigners are hoping for a last-minute reprieve. And in the | :00:58. | :01:08. | |
weather. A cloudy dull day today. Any chance of it changing? Join me | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
later for the full forecast. A mother has spoken of her | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
children's terror after their house was targeted in a racist attack in | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
South Belfast. A hatchet was thrown through the window of the family's | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
South Belfast. A hatchet was thrown home in the Sandy Row area this | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
morning. The police say they're treating it as a hate crime. | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
Our reporter Louise Cullen has been speaking to mother-of-two Adenike | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
Yisa,. I must warn you, her report speaking to mother-of-two Adenike | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
contains some strong racist language. | :01:32. | :01:42. | |
Broken glass was hanging from the window of the home on Sandy Row this | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
morning. Adenike Yisa fell asleep watching TV when the sound of the | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
hatchet coming through the window I woke up. She did not want to appear | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
on camera. I thought it was a gunshot. I realised a cracking and | :01:56. | :02:03. | |
smashing, the sound of the glass falling off. I realised it was my | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
window being smashed. I quickly got up and I was screaming. Her children | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
were asleep upstairs, Hassan will be five next month, her daughter is two | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
and a half. I was terrified. I put my daughter back to sleep but myself | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
was scared and would not go back to bed. I put on the lights. They have | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
lived here for more than a year but they have had trouble. A racist | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
insult which she describes was spray-painted on the window when | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
they moved in. I saw something written on my window | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
with a black ink saying no Nigg is allowed in South Balfour asked. This | :02:50. | :03:02. | |
Nigg is here to stay. I did not call the police. Four months ago, some | :03:02. | :03:14. | |
group of guys were walking down and I heard a noise on the window. | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
We rushed out of the door and saw ten young guys with a football. They | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
We rushed out of the door and saw kicked the football against the | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
window. She says Belfast has been welcoming more than a decade ago | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
when she arrived. Most people are good and nice and | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
lovely people. If you get the bad ones, you feel like running out. We | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
have more good people and bad people. The hatchet has been removed | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
for frenzy examination and the police are appealing for | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
information. There may be big problems - but | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
there is no crisis. The words of First Minister Peter Robinson | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
tonight amid speculation over the state of the power sharing Executive | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
at Stormont. It follows a warning from Sinn Fein that relations | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
between the two biggest parties are in difficulties. Our political | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
editor Mark Devenport has been following the political | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
roller-coaster. In New York they observed a | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
temporary truce but how relations now between Stormont's top two? | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
When Martin McGuinness stood shoulder to shoulder with Peter | :04:18. | :04:26. | |
Robinson went distance killed PSN I and later British soldiers, he was | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
doing the legally thing, assertive and robust. Why hasn't Peter | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
Robinson stood shoulder to shoulder with Martin McGuinness and done the | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
same? In his assessment, Gerry Adams | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
mentioned the violence over the summer and the DUP decision to pull | :04:44. | :04:52. | |
the plug on the plans Mason Centre. Despite tension, even today the | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
the plug on the plans Mason Centre. first and Deputy First Minister is | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
where carrying on with their day jobs greeting the new US ambassador | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
to London. There was a crisis, it is seen on | :05:00. | :05:08. | |
the streets and months of sectarian violence. We have had the First | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
Minister missing. I have been involved in a number of | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
crises over the years and I have to say the present circumstances do not | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
have that feel about them at all. There are big problems and we have | :05:23. | :05:29. | |
to address the issues and it's important we do. Can we fix it? Yes, | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
they need to come back to the Good Friday Agreement, back to a | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
partnership. Everybody should call their jets and try to get on with | :05:41. | :05:49. | |
the business of resolving problems -- cool their jets. This latest spat | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
is part of the continued dispute over Peter Robinson's decision to | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
put the maze peace Centre on hold. In determining whether this is a | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
crisis, it's important to pay more attention not to the war of words | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
but what ever is the parties take in the coming months. | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
Now to a proposal which could see the privatisation of part of | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Northern Ireland's public transport network. It's contained in the final | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
draft of a report prepared by a Stormont Committee and seen by the | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
BBC. The report's also critical of how the Government monitors | :06:24. | :06:32. | |
Translink. Last year the company received more than £140 million for | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
things like new trains, buses and free transport for the elderly. | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
Here's our business correspondent Julian O'Neill. | :06:37. | :06:45. | |
The it bus or train, Translink is public transport in Ireland. The BBC | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
The it bus or train, Translink is has seen a report calling for a | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
major shake-up at privatisation of parts of the network. The report has | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
been ripped -- compiled following a report by the development | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
committee. It argues Translink is getting an easy ride from | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
government. The report says scrutiny of Translink is not sufficient given | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
in the multi-million pound subsidies the public transport provider | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
receives. It argues for budgets to be reviewed. Perhaps the most | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
eye-catching proposal of all is that parts of the public transport | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
network should be opened up to private operators. Specifically, the | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
report will name a new project as being ripe for a new player. Belfast | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
rapid transit is a £100 million plan agreed last year by the executive. | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
It would use modern trams or light rail vehicles, initially it would | :07:40. | :07:48. | |
connect East Belfast, West Belfast and the Titanic Quarter to the city | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
centre. The report is making its way to the Minister who is known to be | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
an opponent of privatisation fearing it could mean fare increases and | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
less popular routes falling by the wayside. When the report is | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
published it will be debated on the floor of the assembly chamber but | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
already it seems the battle lines are being drawn. | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
From one high profile organisation to another and there's more upheaval | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
at the top of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive. A search will | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
begin soon for its third chief executive in as many years after the | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
current post holder announced he was taking retirement. And shortly | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
before we came on air Julian O'Neill gave me this update. | :08:33. | :08:41. | |
John McPeak has been at the Housing Executive for 30 years and in the | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
top position. He wants to retire and the board has accepted his. He has | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
the length of service to be in titles to retire but he is retiring | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
at a time when Housing Executive is under intense scrutiny over how the | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
organisation came to overpay a number of repair contractors. Mr | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
organisation came to overpay a McPeak would have faced questioning | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
why politicians on the social development committee and he still | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
will because he is Joubert tomorrow alongside the social development | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
Minister, Nelson McCausland. He will brief politicians, give them an | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
update on the investigations in the Housing Executive and reveal there | :09:23. | :09:30. | |
is an underspend of 35mm is. This is significant and comes because of the | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
investigations many new contracts cannot be awarded and this | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
potentially could be a problem for tenants if not sorted out soon. | :09:38. | :09:48. | |
Still to come on the programme: Combating child sex exploitation - | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
we hear the details of a new inquiry. | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
Campaigners are hoping for a last minute reprieve for the Exploris | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
Centre in Portaferry. The crunch decision is being taken | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
Centre in Portaferry. at a council meeting tonight in | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
Newtownards and our reporter Mark Simpson is there. | :10:05. | :10:17. | |
The meeting is due to begin at 7pm. Already a large group, more than 100 | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
campaigners and protesters have gathered. If we take a closer look | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
campaigners and protesters have at the crowd, we can see they come | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
from all aspects of life, trade unionists trying to save the 18 jobs | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
which are explored -- at Exploris Centre. Families, young people and | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
older people trying to save the aquarium. I have spent the day in | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
Portaferry. It seems the end is in sight for | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
Portaferry. Exploris Centre. Arts Council say | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
the aquarium is simply costing too much money. But the campaign to stop | :10:54. | :11:02. | |
its closure is being stepped up. If the aquarium closes it will rip | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
the heart out of the town. Joe runs a local fish and chip shop and is | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
also on the council and is fighting to save the aquarium. It looks like | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
a losing battle. Portaferry without the Exploris Centre would become a | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
ghost town. We are talking about 70, 90,000 people coming to Portaferry | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
and spending money when they come here. | :11:29. | :11:36. | |
That is the only economy we have. We should be enhancing it. But not | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
everyone agrees. The Strangford MLA has been quoted as saying: | :11:43. | :11:54. | |
The council says it costs £600,000 a year to keep it going. | :11:54. | :12:04. | |
Is that a good use of ratepayers money? We asked people in the | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
largest town in the area, Newtownards. There is no need to | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
spend that much money, it should be bringing in to keep itself open. It | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
should be kept. I took my children that and I am taking my | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
grandchildren. I did think they that and I am taking my | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
should close it. I am terrified of fish and sea life but it is | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
preserving the wildlife and keeping things we would not see on an | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
everyday basis. The centre isn't the most popular attraction in Northern | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
Ireland and it isn't easy to get to that campaigners say it is one of | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
the most family friendly. Especially on a rainy day. The bad news is I do | :12:45. | :12:56. | |
not think they can change the mind of the Council and the best they can | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
hope for is making sure that the council delays decision and we will | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
hope for is making sure that the find out very soon. Thank you. Now | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
to the crisis surrounding the sexual exploitation of children. In the | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
current police investigation, one of the biggest of its kind, over 30 | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
people have been arrested in connection with the abuse of 22 | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
children who went missing while in care. Tonight at the Health Minister | :13:21. | :13:31. | |
has confirmed years launching an independent enquiry which will look | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
has confirmed years launching an into the scale of the problem and | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
recommend measures. When I spoke to Edwin Poots, I asked whether the | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
public could be confident that any recommendations would be | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
implemented. The nature of the problem has been around for years | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
and that was recognised in the report which we commissioned and was | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
produced in 2011. We have carried out actions flowing from that, but | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
we still identify problems and we want to see if we are doing things | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
well and if we are not doing them well, and we want to get someone | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
with independence to look at that so it is not regarded as some cover-up | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
or a sham. Since that you have known this, why only act now? We have not | :14:09. | :14:16. | |
only just acted now. We have five recommendations from those reports. | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
We have taken actions on all of them. We have social services in | :14:19. | :14:27. | |
bedded with police, we are giving additional funding to ensure safe | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
choices are available to young people. We have provided therapeutic | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
choices are available to young services to children with alcohol | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
and drug problems. There are a whole series of actions. Should the re-met | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
the extended to finding out why so little has been done? I do not | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
accept that. What I do accept is that children are still being | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
exploited. There are still perpetrators out there and we need | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
exploited. There are still to do everything we can to ensure | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
this is not the case. We will look at the actions we have carried out, | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
it's some of them have failed, or if there is best practice elsewhere | :15:05. | :15:21. | |
that we are not initiating, let us ensure that is the case. I am not | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
saying that we will come out of this report with a perfect analysis, but | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
nonetheless I am prepared to go out there and have that independent look | :15:28. | :15:29. | |
nonetheless I am prepared to go out at what we do. Loyalist supergrass | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
who got a heavily reduced prison sentence for agreeing to give | :15:31. | :15:33. | |
evidence against eight men accused of murdering Martin O'Hagan will not | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
have the deal overturned. He was accused of telling lies in court. | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
The Public Prosecution Service said the evidence provided by Neil Hyde | :15:39. | :15:46. | |
was not enough to secure convictions. Our Home Affairs | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
correspondent reports. Martin O'Hagan was a journalist with the | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
Sunday world. He was shot dead in Lurgan in 2001 as he walked home | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
with his wife. The Loyalist Volunteer Force members Neil Hyde | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
admitted his role in the killing and offered to become an assisting | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
offender and give evidence against eight others he said were involved. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
In return for agreeing to tell the truth, he received a reduced | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
sentence. Neil Hyde admitted 48 offences and was sentenced to three | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
years in prison. The judge said that if he had not agreed to identify the | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
alleged killers of Martin O'Hagan he would have been sent to jail for 18 | :16:24. | :16:31. | |
years. In January, the director of Public Prosecution Service announced | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
that the evidence he gave was not enough to secure convictions. In | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
June, it was announced that he had been sent back to court for his | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
sentence to be reviewed. After his sentencing hearing, material was | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
made available which has led us to the belief that he was not telling | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
made available which has led us to us the full truth. The PPS withdrew | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
the challenge. It said there was not sufficient evidence that Neil Hyde | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
had breached the terms of his agreement. This is the second major | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
setback for the so-called supergrass system. In January last year, a | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
judge said he could not allow the evidence of self-confessed UVF | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
members Robert and Ian Stewart. He accused them of lying and nine men | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
accused of murder walked free. The PPS later said it found seven | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
different occasions on which the brothers lied, but that the lies | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
were not serious enough for the reduced sentences to be reviewed. | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
This latest decision will fuel criticism of the system, it is based | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
on a carrot and stick approach, the carrot is a reduced -- when an offer | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
of a reduced sentence in return of giving evidence. The stick is the | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
threat that that reduced sentence will be rescinded if the assisting | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
offender is found to have lied. This is the second case where the | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
integrity of the evidence given has been seriously questioned, but with | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
no repercussions for those who gave it. Still to come on the programme. | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
The dairy dig which is still going it. Still to come on the programme. | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
down, down, deeper and down -- Derry. In some of the other news. | :18:13. | :18:21. | |
The Dungannon woman Michaela McCollum has pleaded guilty to drug | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
smuggling in her room. She was caught at Lima airport in August | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
with cocaine worth over £1 million. Her co-accused, Scottish woman | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
Melissa Reid also pleaded guilty. It means they are guaranteed a more | :18:36. | :18:39. | |
lenient sentence and the prospect of being able to serve some of it in a | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
UK prison. A 29-year-old man has been wounded in the legs in a | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
paramilitary style shooting in west Belfast. The victim was forced into | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
a car by three men last night and driven to dine fine walk in the Turf | :18:53. | :18:59. | |
Lodge area where he was shot twice in each leg. His injuries are not | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
life-threatening. The prosecution has now completed its case in the | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
trial of Liam Adams who was accused of raping and assaulting his | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
daughter more than 30 years ago. The 58-year-old from Bernagh Drive in | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
Belfast denies ten offences against his daughter Aine. The oldest | :19:18. | :19:27. | |
artefacts ever discovered in Londonderry have been unearthed | :19:27. | :19:32. | |
during a day in the city centre. The archaeologists carrying out the work | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
have been given a two-week extension and our reporter has been finding | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
out what lies beneath. Many artefacts have been unearthed at | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
this car park beside the historic walls of the city. These fragments | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
of an early Bronze Age urn are of particular interest. They are | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
evidence of the earliest settlement on what was once the island of | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
Derry, dating back 4000 years. It shows us there was occupation here | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
from the prehistoric period. It is not unsurprising, but it has never | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
been found. If you look at the island of Derry, it is a prominent | :20:12. | :20:13. | |
settlement, it has got the River island of Derry, it is a prominent | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
Foyle on one side and the bog on the other, they are important sites for | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
a settlement to protect it. 13 skeletons were found last week by | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
the team excavating the site. Those are thought to be from the time of | :20:28. | :20:35. | |
the siege of Derry. These latest artefacts are older, dating back to | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
the Bronze Age and it could be more to come. The date has been extended | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
by two weeks. The reason is because of the discoveries that have been | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
made, including this piece that I have here. It is believed that this | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
is from a Bronze Age urn, which is very exciting. It is the oldest | :20:52. | :20:58. | |
artefact which has been found in this area ever. They are just a | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
piece of flint and pottery, but they are giving a new generation an | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
insight into something very old. It is really interesting and amazing to | :21:08. | :21:10. | |
insight into something very old. It see stuff like this. I think | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
children should have the knowledge see stuff like this. I think | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
of what has happened in their city. They should know about this. This | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
date has captured the imagination of the public and as it continues, many | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
are wondering if anything else could lied the meat. -- lie beneath. Now | :21:24. | :21:35. | |
it is time for the sport. Motor cyclists in County Down are not | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
happy. This has to do with the Leadmines Park near Newtownards | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
which has been a popular home for trial by King for many years. It is | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
impressive stuff, but the brakes have been put on the sport following | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
a decision by the local council to enforce a ban on all motorcycling | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
events at the venue. The are not happy and Thomas Niblock has more. | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
Trial by King is the only form of motor cycling -- would cycling which | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
does not involve speed. It has been locked out of its County Down home, | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
which hosted the world championships back in the 1980s. Needless to say, | :22:14. | :22:21. | |
the bikers are not impressed. We are very concerned that we have lost | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
this location for practice and without the practice, our sport is | :22:26. | :22:34. | |
at a disadvantage. We need to have a location. Motor cycling has been | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
taking place at the Leadmines for eight years, but the council are now | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
in forcing their decision to ban all forms of motorcycling in the park. | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
While we recognise that there is a long history of this taking place | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
here, I would not say it is all of a sudden. Our policy has been in place | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
and this has not changed. What we are doing is we are enforcing our | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
policy, because we have had a lot of riders coming in, scrambler bikes | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
coming in, which is an area of scientific interest. That seems to | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
be the problem, the bikers feel there are sports is being mixed up | :23:13. | :23:23. | |
with recreational scramblers, but could be causing damage. The message | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
to the council from the biking community is simple. You have to let | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
us in for the good of our sport. It has to happen. Our sport will die. | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
The council confirmed they will begin at the decision, but for the | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
meantime, trial bikers will have to find a new home. The County Antrim | :23:43. | :23:51. | |
Shield champions Ballymena United are on course to retain the title | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
following a win at home to Donegal Celtic. There are some heavy hitters | :23:56. | :24:04. | |
waiting for them. 42 time winners of the County Antrim Shield Linfield | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
got off to the perfect start through Brian McCall against are to have | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
only won the competition on three occasions. The last time they were | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
captained by the current Linfield bossed 20 years ago. They doubled | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
their advantage, with this cross. In the second half, Linfield's | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
attacking flair rewarded them with a third goal. The shot took a | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
deflection of Matthew Tipton and third goal. The shot took a | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
past the goalkeeper. In injury time, Newtownards got their name on | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
the scoresheet twice. Firstly through Andy Mitchell and secondly | :24:38. | :24:45. | |
from Craig Mulholland. We go from very confident in the first half, a | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
slick performance, to being sloppy. There are parts of the game which | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
pleased me immensely, and there are other parts would certainly was | :24:56. | :25:02. | |
lessons to be learned. The same can be said in east Belfast as Glentoran | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
fell to powerful header from left and Bill on the stroke of half-time. | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
The league champions capitalised on slack defending to score a third | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
second. He headed in the third goal later. I thought we did very well in | :25:19. | :25:26. | |
the first half. We could have had more goals. Overall I am to light | :25:26. | :25:35. | |
it. -- delighted. It is everything I wanted. Joining Cliftonville in then | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
it. -- delighted. It is everything I last four are Crusaders. That is it | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
from me. It is time for the weather. Dull would sum up the weather for | :25:43. | :26:00. | |
Monday, Tuesday, and most of the week. We have got lots of cloud | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
around and a little bit of showery rain overnight. All of that cloud | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
does mean that temperatures tonight will stay mild, staying in two | :26:10. | :26:16. | |
double figures. It might be a bit cooler, but generally a very mild | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
night. As we go into tomorrow, it is a similar picture, a little bit more | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
rain as we go through the day. None of it are very heavy, just that | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
grisly stuff which will be present through the day. Temperatures are | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
cooler, mid to low teens through the through the day. Temperatures are | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
day, the chance of the odd break in the cloud, with a little bit of | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
showery rain. Over the next few days, no sign of any significant | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
change in that weather setup, it will be grey and cloudy, but on | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
change in that weather setup, it Friday, it offers us the best chance | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
of brightness, particularly through the afternoon and that will help | :26:58. | :27:07. | |
temperatures on the rise. It will not change by the weekend, more rain | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
around, a bit breezy on the north coast on Saturday, so what can we | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
say about this week? Lovely weather for mushrooms, terrible weather for | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
sunbathing. If you do spot a bright spell jury next few days, make the | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
absolute most of them because they will be in very short supply in | :27:27. | :27:28. | |
date. The only good news is it will will be in very short supply in | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
be feeling reasonably mild for the rest of the week. Thank you. Our | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
late summary is at 10:25pm and you can keep in contact by Facebook and | :27:39. | :27:43. | |
Twitter. For now, it is good night. | :27:43. | :27:45. |
