Hello. I'm Shaun Peel. 15,000 people That is it from us,

:00:00.:00:23.

Hello. I'm Shaun Peel. 15,000 people have packed the centre of Luton to

:00:24.:00:26.

celebrate Luton Town's return to the Football League. It comes on the day

:00:27.:00:29.

that the region's only top`flight club Norwich City earned a point at

:00:30.:00:32.

Chelsea, and a stay of execution. That in a moment, but first Jonathan

:00:33.:00:37.

Park reports from Luton. They gathered in their thousands to

:00:38.:00:41.

celebrate Luton town's return to league. It is brilliant. Everyone

:00:42.:00:51.

has turned out. Eric Marcon would be pleased, the sun is shining! `` Eric

:00:52.:01:11.

Morecambe. A record`breaking season. I was with the club for a long time.

:01:12.:01:16.

Somebody asked me, why did I leave to come here. This is why a left!

:01:17.:01:25.

CHEERING. The support has been fantastic, the

:01:26.:01:29.

players and staff have done their part. Five years in the wilderness,

:01:30.:01:35.

unjustly relegated to the conference. But now we are back and

:01:36.:01:46.

justice has been done. The loyalty has been phenomenal, it has been

:01:47.:01:55.

fantastic. The size of Luton town support means

:01:56.:02:08.

that you should not rule out a repeat of these scenes.

:02:09.:02:10.

And there were also jubilant scenes in Cambridge today as they moved a

:02:11.:02:14.

step closer to joining Luton next season. Cambridge beat Halifax 2`0

:02:15.:02:16.

today to reach the Conference playoff final at Wembley. Delano

:02:17.:02:19.

Sam`Yorke scored both goals to give Cambridge a 2`1 win on aggregate.

:02:20.:02:22.

Big celebrations at the Abbey Stadium as Cambridge prepare to meet

:02:23.:02:25.

Grimsby or Gateshead in the final in a fortnight.

:02:26.:02:27.

And the celebrations have been continuing for Northampton Town,

:02:28.:02:29.

who'll still be playing league football next season after saving

:02:30.:02:32.

themselves from relegation at the 11th hour. They beat Oxford 3`1 to

:02:33.:02:35.

pull off a remarkable escape having been in the bottom two for seven

:02:36.:02:39.

months of the season. Manager Chris Wilder said some thought this club

:02:40.:02:42.

was dead and buried but I never wavered in my belief in this group

:02:43.:02:49.

of players. This is all in contrast to the mood

:02:50.:02:53.

in Norwich. Fans of Norwich City are resigned to what looks like the

:02:54.:02:56.

club's inevitable relegation from the Premier League. Today, they

:02:57.:02:58.

fought hard against Chelsea and came away with a draw, but they'll need a

:02:59.:03:02.

minor miracle next weekend to avoid the drop.

:03:03.:03:09.

Ian Barmer reports now on the slide towards relegation.

:03:10.:03:13.

For the fans, watching today's game was never going to be easy. Norwich

:03:14.:03:16.

held their own and created some great chances. Although they could

:03:17.:03:23.

not be relegated this weekend, it will still take a miracle to keep

:03:24.:03:28.

them up. My prediction is that we will go down. We need a miracle to

:03:29.:03:34.

stay up. We're going down, it has been terrible. It has been

:03:35.:03:40.

absolutely terrible. Norwich City have been in the Premier league for

:03:41.:03:43.

the past three seasons. The region's on the club in the top

:03:44.:03:47.

flight. It brings prestige and a lot of money to the club and the city.

:03:48.:03:52.

But the heady days of promotion in 2011 seem a long way away now. Chris

:03:53.:03:57.

Hughton was sacked with just five days to go. The new man has just one

:03:58.:04:09.

point under the belt. It is disastrous in terms of the money

:04:10.:04:12.

that would come and commercially for people that come to the city, spend

:04:13.:04:15.

money for the city when they come and stay for the weekend. It is a

:04:16.:04:21.

lack of money that could go to the Academy, a lack of money available

:04:22.:04:25.

to transfers. Also the income coming in, people with not pay that kind of

:04:26.:04:29.

figures for watching championship football as the would premiership

:04:30.:04:35.

football. It could be decided on Wednesday. A Sunderland woman then

:04:36.:04:43.

it could be `` if Sunderland win then it will be all over for

:04:44.:04:45.

Norwich. Finally, the weekend's strikes by

:04:46.:04:48.

fire`fighters have passed without any major incidents. The last of the

:04:49.:04:51.

three walk`outs by members of the Fire Brigades Union ended this

:04:52.:04:53.

afternoon. They're part of an ongoing dispute between the FBU and

:04:54.:04:56.

the government over changes to pensions. OK, let's look at the

:04:57.:04:58.

weather with Sara Thornton. Good evening. What a beautiful bank

:04:59.:05:07.

holiday weekend that has turned out to be for most of us. Some cloud

:05:08.:05:12.

around and also some chilli starts. Another chilly start in prospect for

:05:13.:05:18.

tomorrow. A lovely day, dry and even warmer than today. Some wore me

:05:19.:05:23.

being brought towards us. It is not wall`to`wall sunshine because we

:05:24.:05:30.

will have some rain towards us. It was day dry throughout the day with

:05:31.:05:35.

southerly winds helping to move some more warmer air towards us. The

:05:36.:05:39.

damages will be up on the values that we saw today, looking at the

:05:40.:05:42.

top temperature easily of 15 Celsius. Some places could see 19.

:05:43.:05:53.

Some overnight rain into Tuesday. Breezy with showers through this

:05:54.:05:56.

week. That's it. I'll have more at 10.15.

:05:57.:05:57.

Until then, bye`bye. Good evening. Today we have had the

:05:58.:06:13.

sunniest skies in the South whereas in the north it has been quite

:06:14.:06:16.

cloudy. Tomorrow, we switch things around. In the east we will have

:06:17.:06:22.

warm, hazy sunshine. In the west we will have the biggest cloud.

:06:23.:06:27.

Tonight, there will be some rain across parts of Scotland. The rain

:06:28.:06:31.

easing across Northern Ireland. For many will be a dry night. For many

:06:32.:06:36.

across the south it will be cold. Maybe not quite as cold as last

:06:37.:06:44.

night. We should start with quite a bit of sunshine across central and

:06:45.:06:47.

eastern areas. The sunshine will turn quite hazy of the cloud spills

:06:48.:06:53.

in from the west. The wind is also starting to pick up and we will see

:06:54.:06:58.

rain. For Northern Ireland, the rain spreading across a good part of

:06:59.:07:03.

Western Scotland. It may start to brighten up later in the day. After

:07:04.:07:06.

a bright
