Good evening. on the BBC News Channel, | :00:09. | :00:09. | |
First tonight, some Bristol Rovers fans have | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
complained about heavy-handed stewarding and policing at | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
Others have told the BBC how police used pepper spray on the crowds | :00:14. | :00:24. | |
and one man with MS claims he was forced to the ground | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
We've contacted Port Vale and Staffordshire Police | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
for a response - so far we've heard nothing back. | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
We'll have more on this in the ten o'clock news. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
An investigation is underway after a man was found in Bristol | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
with serious injuries - he later died in hospital. | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
He was discovered yesterday in the Pennywell Road area. | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
Police are treating his death as unexplained | :00:46. | :00:46. | |
There's been criticism of the Government for delays | :00:47. | :00:55. | |
in creating the role of metromayor for the West of England. | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
Voters in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and Bath | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
and North East Somerset will go to the polls in May. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
But the legislation has only just gone through Parliament. | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
On the streets of the West, campaigning's under way. | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
Labour brought in shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell, | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
to help their candidate Lesley Mansel. | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
It came days after Parliament formally approved the creation of a | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
My Lords this order brings to life the Devolution | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
Bill which the Government agreed with the West of England | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Powers will include transport, with the | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
Liberal Democrats keen to focus on railways. | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
But they have got little time to get their message across. | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
It does present a big logistical challenge, | :01:43. | :01:44. | |
particularly as it is such an enormous area. | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
For the individual candidates, whether it's | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
me as a Liberal Democrat, or the other party candidates, | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
this will be the biggest challenge that any | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
individual has faced in the whole history of west country politics. | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
Voters know little, some confuse it with the new metro bus system. | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
I don't know anything about metromayor. | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
Just made a real mess at the moment about metromayor. | :02:06. | :02:16. | |
The candidates have ten weeks to enlighten voters. | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
It is a very large region, covers over 900,000 people, | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
nine constituencies, three major councils, | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
so when we look at like that it shows how significant and | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
So, yes, there is a lot of work to get out | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
there and meet as many people and talk to as many people as we can. | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
All parties are stepping up their campaigns to tell people what's | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
happening, but perhaps what will make the biggest impact is the | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
information booklet being planned by local councils. | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
It will include details of who is standing and | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
It will go out to all voters a few weeks before polling | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
Onto football - here's a look at all the weekend's goal action. | :02:55. | :03:09. | |
Swindon were held to a goalless draw with Oldham. Despite having the best | :03:10. | :03:21. | |
of the chances. This shot in the 90th minute was just off target. | :03:22. | :03:35. | |
Bristol drew with port Vale. Cheltenham beat Yeovil two anyone. | :03:36. | :03:45. | |
Forest Green's were beaten at Gateshead. | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
Judd Trump is battling away in the final of the Welsh Open | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
Going into the evening session, Bingham is leading Trump | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
by 5 frames to 3 in the best of 17 contest in Cardiff. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
He raced into a 4-0 lead, before Trump, the world number four, fought | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
winning a dramatic eighth frame on the pink to cut | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
There were more dogs than usual on the Bristol to Bath cycle path | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
this weekend as a charity fundraiser practiced his challenge | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
to walk a hundred miles with a hundred different dogs. | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
Marc Aplin begins his non-stop dogwalk | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
It's to raise money for dog rescue centres, where he says twenty dogs | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
a day are put to sleep in the UK because there are not enough | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
I think it's going to be tough, I think it will be quite mentally | :04:29. | :04:39. | |
tough. I hope that every mile the incentive of meeting a new dog I | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
think will keep me going. And Marc is still on the look out for more | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
dogs to help him with his challenge. Time for a look at the forecast | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
as we look ahead to a brand new week A few breaks in the cloud today. | :04:53. | :05:04. | |
Further mist and fog patches tonight. For most dry, but murky. | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
Temperatures mild down at eight or nine degrees. Tomorrow, it is a grey | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
start, with some mist and low cloud. There will be the odd spot of | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
drizzle. But in the afternoon the cloud could lift and break and it | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
could be one of the mildest days we have seen for some time. Some spots | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
could hit 14 degrees. It stays mild but breezy through the week. | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
Finally congratulations to Joan and Ken here - | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
We featured their love story on Points West. | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
Both in their 80s, they met in 1975 in | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
Gloucester City Centre - Ken was homeless at the time, | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
and Joan took him under her wing when she found him | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
We're back later on in the Ten O'Clock News - join us again. | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
on and on. It is because of the direction of the wind. Tomorrow's | :05:59. | :06:21. | |
temperatures might be higher than today by a couple of degrees. There | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
has been a lot of cloud. But we had some lovely pictures coming in. Some | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
sunshine, but predominantly the clouds have been -- the skies have | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
been cloudy. This will continue as well as a smattering of rain. For | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
all those reasons it isn't going to be a cold night. In fact a night's | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
temperatures will be higher than the daytime maximum averages for this | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
time of year. A murky grey start in the morning. Hill and coastal fog. | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
Rainfall western Scotland and Northern Ireland and a real | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
buffeting from the winds. East of the Grampians could be particularly | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
nasty on the | :07:04. | :07:05. |
