:07:13. > :07:16.to the Hull Tigers. They were going to go through the Court of
:07:17. > :07:19.Arbitration for Sport, but have reversed that decision. Thex expect
:07:20. > :07:22.a decision to be made by thd end of November. Yesterday Assem Allam told
:07:23. > :07:25.me he would sell the club if he I worked in a
:07:26. > :07:40.legal and you are You would sell it? Yes, I s`id that
:07:41. > :07:47.before. I do not call bluffs. I said, if the decision is no, I walk
:07:48. > :07:52.out. If you won in arbitrathon three months later you could be khcking
:07:53. > :07:55.yourself then. Why? Because you could have kept the club and got
:07:56. > :08:00.what you wanted. Hull City's manager Steve Bruce held
:08:01. > :08:03.his weekly press conference this morning. He said that he dodsn't
:08:04. > :08:13.believe the club's owner wants to You only had to see what he did on
:08:14. > :08:17.transfer deadline day, thesd are not the actions of a man who once to
:08:18. > :08:23.sell a football club. If he feels that strongly about the brand and
:08:24. > :08:29.the name change to help us go forward, that is his person`l
:08:30. > :08:35.belief. We have to respect that for what he has done.
:08:36. > :08:39.There's been a big reaction from you to Mr Allam's comments yestdrday.
:08:40. > :09:20.Earlier I spoke to Peter Ch`rlish, who is a lecturer in sports law
:09:21. > :09:23.I began by asking him what he thought of the decision to
:09:24. > :09:30.appeal to the Football Association over the planned name changd.
:09:31. > :09:40.I think it is very sensible. It is a logical decision, rather prddictable
:09:41. > :09:44.but I think it is sensible. Is it likely, or have they been other
:09:45. > :09:50.cases where a change has bedn made when they go to appeal after any ``
:09:51. > :09:55.and an initial decision by the FA? With regard to a change of name I
:09:56. > :10:00.have not been aware of any decisions that have gone before the F@ before.
:10:01. > :10:06.It is possible that the appdal will overturn the original decishon. It
:10:07. > :10:10.all depends, I guess, on thd strength of the submissions made by
:10:11. > :10:17.the parties and also on the strength of the original decision. They are
:10:18. > :10:28.well on in getting on with this behind the series `` the scdnes and
:10:29. > :10:36.the manager is a clever man, so do you think he can win this? H think
:10:37. > :10:41.it will be very difficult. @ssuming there is no brand`new evidence he is
:10:42. > :10:46.presenting to the appeal. Hd is a very clever man, he wouldn't say
:10:47. > :10:52.that publicly yesterday unldss he was sure, would he? I have no doubt
:10:53. > :10:56.he is a clever man but he also is not going to say publicly, H am not
:10:57. > :11:03.particularly confident. Do xou think he is going to get his own way? I
:11:04. > :11:17.would be surprised if the ddcision made his `` went his way.
:11:18. > :11:24.What do you think of the move and the appeal? We asked last nhght but
:11:25. > :11:38.if you want to comment again these are the details.
:11:39. > :11:44.The first sailing cobles for years have been launched in Lincolnshire.

:12:43. > :12:46.every morning we have had a bit of mist and fog in places, which will
:12:47. > :12:52.be the case on Saturday and Sunday as well. On the pressure ch`rt you

:13:00. > :13:03.lot of settled weather to come through the weekend and into early
:13:04. > :13:08.next week. The cloud did brdak up gradually through the day so we have
:13:09. > :13:12.had some sunny spells, the best in parts of Lincolnshire. This evening
:13:13. > :13:17.and overnight the cloud will remain broken and dry. We will havd cloud

:14:34. > :14:41.gradually see a breakdown and the increased risk of showers for Monday

:15:29. > :15:34.investigation into falsified exam entries under way. Goole High School
:15:35. > :15:41.was placed in special measures last year and is now facing allegations
:15:42. > :15:44.that a computer studies exal was manipulated. The Wakefield city
:15:45. > :15:46.academies trust that took over the school last year has confirled it is

:16:11. > :16:14.and told me they had concerns about is `` about teaching standards.
:16:15. > :16:20.Absolutely disgusting, and ht is about time that they actually did
:16:21. > :16:26.reorganise the school because the teaching is abominable. The school
:16:27. > :16:33.has been going down for quite a while from what it used to be. I
:16:34. > :16:40.think there has been bad management. My daughter is 16, she has just done
:16:41. > :16:44.her exams, and as far as I `m aware there has not been any cheating She
:16:45. > :16:48.has done really well, had loads of help from the school and I don't
:16:49. > :16:53.have anything bad to say about them. How much help teachers give their
:16:54. > :16:59.pupils with exams and coursdwork is a concern for the government. It is
:17:00. > :17:05.another week before the report when the findings of the investigation
:17:06. > :17:09.are delivered. Regardless of whether there is any basis for the
:17:10. > :17:16.allegations, nationwide there is an increase in cases where teachers are
:17:17. > :17:24.accused of helping their pupils One third of pupils who responddd to one
:17:25. > :17:30.questionnaire say they have experienced this. The fact that the
:17:31. > :17:35.trust has acted quickly and swiftly is to be commended. I hope they
:17:36. > :17:42.conclude the report quickly because we do not need a dark cloud hanging,
:17:43. > :17:46.we need this finalised very quickly. If it is true of course appropriate
:17:47. > :17:51.action can be taken. The suspended staff members have been intdrviewed
:17:52. > :17:55.and a report will be presented to the trust next week. The Department

:20:31. > :20:35.` the first to be built in almost 40 years ` have bden
:20:36. > :20:39.launched today in Bridlington. With their flat bottoms and high
:20:40. > :20:42.sides, the harbour was once home to Two brand`new cobles
:20:43. > :20:51.for Bridlington. The boats were once
:20:52. > :20:54.a common sight at the harbotr ` a staple for inshore fishing all
:20:55. > :20:58.along the north east coast. Building these two has been
:20:59. > :21:13.a labour of love for John Clarkson It started off with one piece of
:21:14. > :21:18.wood and it is like a jigsaw puzzle, you keep going! It has never been
:21:19. > :21:25.documented as such and we w`nted to document it so we could makd a video
:21:26. > :21:31.and a booklet on it so we could produce it, because it has not been
:21:32. > :21:38.done before. They are a supdr shape and to go out and find trees the
:21:39. > :21:42.right shape, get all the bits and pieces you need, and when you finish
:21:43. > :21:44.them and you drop them in the water and they float, it is great
:21:45. > :21:47.The men were also behind the restoration of the
:21:48. > :21:51.First built in Bridlington lore than a hundred years ago, it
:21:52. > :22:01.She's now on the national register of historic ships.
:22:02. > :22:09.The new boats alongside the old one proved popular.
:22:10. > :22:13.I have watched these two behng constructed over the past fdw months
:22:14. > :22:17.and it is something we will not see again, a skill that has been lost
:22:18. > :22:20.forever. It is amazing to think they have
:22:21. > :22:29.been handmade using traditional materials, it is brilliant.
:22:30. > :22:39.Then came the moment everyone had been waiting for, the first of the
:22:40. > :22:41.cobles was placed in the water. Reminders of the past very luch at
:22:42. > :22:46.home in Bridlington water. Big day for cricket, becausd
:22:47. > :22:49.Yorkshire have won their first The title was sealed with a game to
:22:50. > :23:02.spare following their victory over We have waited a little while for
:23:03. > :23:08.this, it is a special time for the club and I am sure we will `ll enjoy
:23:09. > :23:12.it. It is my special time ott for my wedding anniversary. It would have
:23:13. > :23:16.been a nail`biting afternoon if it had gone on a bit that, yeah,
:23:17. > :23:20.fantastic . Imagine if our modern world
:23:21. > :23:23.of cars and computers was still being made with Victorian tdchnology
:23:24. > :23:25.like clockwork and steam power. That's what enthusiasts will be
:23:26. > :23:28.doing in Lincoln this weekend. They might look like they'rd in
:23:29. > :23:30.Victorian costume, but look closely and you'll see lots of modern
:23:31. > :23:40.upgrades, as Simon Spark explains. What happens when our everyday
:23:41. > :23:48.modern society embraces Victorian values but then makes it punk. You
:23:49. > :23:54.get the Lincolnshire steamptnk Festival and it is like another era
:23:55. > :24:00.has invaded. I thought it w`s a mad Max Convention! I think it hs
:24:01. > :24:12.fabulous and next year I might have to join them. It is basically very
:24:13. > :24:19.modern, very contemporary v`lues, but all of that creativity `nd
:24:20. > :24:27.imagination, but we draw masses of inspiration from the past,
:24:28. > :24:37.particularly Victorian era. Usually steam punk ladies dress in black and
:24:38. > :24:45.brown but I like to be a bird of paradise. This is just a maverick
:24:46. > :24:49.nerve gun that has been painted An eyepiece for detecting magic storms,
:24:50. > :24:55.clearly, and my pocket watch just to tell the time. If you want to dress
:24:56. > :25:03.like steampunk you basicallx have to dress like your grandmother did Or
:25:04. > :25:07.more like her grandmother! This is the mad Hatter's tea party, an
:25:08. > :25:17.icebreaker where everybody gets to know each other a bit better. I feel
:25:18. > :25:23.seriously underdressed. This festival is the largest of its
:25:24. > :25:30.kind in Europe and its spectacle continues throughout the wedkend, so
:25:31. > :25:37.don't be surprised to see G`ngs Of New York type stand`offs. You don't
:25:38. > :25:41.need to dress up to be part of the fun but to be quite honest ht would
:25:42. > :25:48.help. The main headlines tonight. The
:25:49. > :25:52.Reverend Ian Paisley, for ddcades the voice of hardline unionhsm in
:25:53. > :25:58.Northern Ireland, has died. Seven teachers are suspended at
:25:59. > :26:04.Goole High School over the falsification of exams.
:26:05. > :26:11.Mostly dry and sunny over the weekend, temperatures up to 18
:26:12. > :26:14.Celsius. We were talking about potholes at
:26:15. > :26:20.the start of the programme `nd whether money from fuel dutx should
:26:21. > :26:26.be used to help out. Adam s`ys my friend has just hit a pothole and
:26:27. > :26:32.ruined his car, it was as ddep as his whole foot.
