:00:00. > 3:59:59now. There is more throughout the evening
:00:00. > :00:09.on bids the BBC News channel. Good evening.
:00:10. > :00:12.A promotion party has been taking place at Scunthorpe United's ground
:00:13. > :00:16.after they ended an excellent season by drawing 2`2 with York. The Iron
:00:17. > :00:19.could have finished top if other results had gone their way. They
:00:20. > :00:22.came close, moving up to second place, and can now look forward to
:00:23. > :00:24.League One football next season. Simon Spark was at Glanford Park for
:00:25. > :00:37.the celebrations. It was always going to be a party
:00:38. > :00:41.atmosphere here. Layers and fans came here with the sweet error of
:00:42. > :00:46.promotion already in the lungs. Fans continued to sing about throughout
:00:47. > :00:51.the duration of the thrilling match against York. They didn't manage to
:00:52. > :00:57.win, but it wouldn't have made the difference in the table even if they
:00:58. > :01:02.did. It has been a fantastic season for Scunthorpe United. It is
:01:03. > :01:11.brilliant. This is what we have been trying for. We were top one minute,
:01:12. > :01:18.second the next. Was it always good to be a party today? Always! Even
:01:19. > :01:28.during the 20th game unbeaten run, we have rarely seen the manager
:01:29. > :01:33.smile. Today, he hasn't stopped! This is my daughter, my wife is here
:01:34. > :01:39.and my family. They have been so supportive of the whole way through.
:01:40. > :01:42.The party may continue here in Scunthorpe, but very soon the
:01:43. > :01:46.thoughts will be turning to the new challenges and changes needed for
:01:47. > :01:49.next season and League one. It wasn't such a good day for North
:01:50. > :01:53.Ferriby United. Their dream of promotion to the Conference Premier
:01:54. > :01:55.is over, after they lost to Guiseley in the second leg of their play`off
:01:56. > :02:00.semifinal. Fans knew that this match was always
:02:01. > :02:05.going to be tough. They had to overcome a two`goal deficit from the
:02:06. > :02:08.away leg on Wednesday. Victory for North Ferriby United would mean a
:02:09. > :02:12.place in the play`off final, and the possibility of promotion for a
:02:13. > :02:15.second consecutive year. Despite being a side which has been dogged
:02:16. > :02:21.with injuries, they showed character and dominated the first half. But in
:02:22. > :02:34.the second there was a chance for Guisely and Wayne Brooksby took it.
:02:35. > :02:37.It was a bad call again, for us. It was a great finish, but a bad call
:02:38. > :02:40.to concede. Despite a number of chances for North Ferriby that
:02:41. > :02:45.followed, it stayed 1`0. And for the fans, disappointment was mixed with
:02:46. > :02:50.pride. It was always going to be difficult. It is disappointing. It
:02:51. > :02:54.would've been the icing on the cake to get through to the final, but it
:02:55. > :03:01.is one those things. They were a better side overall. It is a shame,
:03:02. > :03:05.because we have had a great season! Mid`table was always going to be a
:03:06. > :03:10.good season for us. I am proud of the boys. We have been moving
:03:11. > :03:13.steadily forward. From my perspective, I would love an
:03:14. > :03:16.opportunity to to be able to keep that going again next year. So, no
:03:17. > :03:19.promotion this time for North Ferriby United, but a sense of
:03:20. > :03:23.achievement. It was a tough afternoon for Hull
:03:24. > :03:28.City, too. Steve Bruce's men failed to secure Premier League safety by
:03:29. > :03:32.losing away to Aston Villa 3`1. They bounced back from a goal behind in
:03:33. > :03:36.the first`half, before two Andreas Weimann headers put the home side
:03:37. > :03:40.clear again. It means The Tigers are still not clear of the relegation
:03:41. > :03:43.zone with two games to go. In other news, firefighters in East
:03:44. > :03:46.Yorkshire and Lincolnshire are on strike over plans for a later
:03:47. > :03:51.retirement age and changes to pensions. It's the second day in a
:03:52. > :03:55.row that Fire Brigades Union members have taken action, with another
:03:56. > :03:58.strike planned tomorrow. The Government says firefighters have
:03:59. > :04:02.among the most generous pensions in the public sector.
:04:03. > :04:06.The annual May Fair is under way in Boston, with hundreds of visitors
:04:07. > :04:15.turning out for the first day of the event. Police had issued warnings
:04:16. > :04:18.ahead of the fair. Two years ago it was disrupted by outbreaks of
:04:19. > :04:21.anti`social behaviour. But last year's event passed off peacefully
:04:22. > :04:24.and there have been no reports of any trouble today. It runs until
:04:25. > :04:26.next Saturday in Boston Town Centre. Time for the weather now with Kay
:04:27. > :04:36.Crewdson. As we had through this evening, it
:04:37. > :04:39.will stay dry but we will have cloud increasing from the north`west. It
:04:40. > :04:43.will become a cloudy night over night overnight tonight.
:04:44. > :04:47.Temperatures will get down to about seven or eight degrees at the
:04:48. > :04:52.lowest. Please will be like from the south`west. It will be a start `` a
:04:53. > :04:56.cloudy start tomorrow and could be some light rain or drizzle in
:04:57. > :04:59.northern parts of a region. Perhaps a little bit of brightness later to
:05:00. > :05:02.the afternoon. Top amateurs, 14 degrees.
:05:03. > :05:05.That's all from us for now. We'll be back tomorrow evening at 7.10pm with
:05:06. > :05:06.all the latest on Grimsby Town's promotion bid as they face
:05:07. > :05:17.Gateshead. Have a good Good evening. It was a cold, even
:05:18. > :05:21.frosty start to the Bank Holiday weekend but for most of us day one
:05:22. > :05:25.of three has been dry. We are going to see changes, the first of those
:05:26. > :05:28.changes spilling across Scotland and Northern Ireland as outbreaks of
:05:29. > :05:31.rain drifting through the night. Getting into parts of northern
:05:32. > :05:35.England as well. With the cloud and rain it will not be as cold as last
:05:36. > :05:39.night, temperatures staying in double figures in many cities. In
:05:40. > :05:43.the south, clear skies once more. Like last night, it is going to be
:05:44. > :05:49.cold. Parts of the countryside will be down to zero, maybe -1, as we
:05:50. > :05:51.start Sunday. A chilly start. Generally a fine day was quite a bit
:05:52. > :05:52.of
