The 36-year-old says he received "foul" abusive messages after Somerset lost to Glamorgan by one run on Sunday. And he believes the shorter form of cricket is to blame for "bringing a lot of idiots to the game". However, former England captain Michael Vaughan says players must learn to take social media abuse "on the chin". Trego, who made his first-class cricket debut 17 years ago, said one expletive-strewn message sent by a boy on Instagram this week was "one of the most abusive messages I think I've ever read in my life". The post, which Trego has not reported to police, branded the cricket veteran as "useless" and also urged him to quit the sport. Speaking to BBC Somerset's cricket reporter Charlie Taylor, Trego said: "To send professional athletes, who are giving their best, abusive messages is just an absolute disgrace, and unfortunately I think it is a little bit en vogue at the moment for young people to feel like that's OK." He added: "When it gets to what I would call football hooligan abuse level, I just think, is that really what we want for the future of our cricket? "I know [the T20 game] brings in a lot of money, a lot of revenue, a lot of excitement. But it's also bringing in a lot of idiots to the game who might be spoiling other elements of our game for the next generation." But former England batsman Vaughan claims social media is making this the hardest era for players because there is no respite from criticism. The 42-year-old said: "For a fan to be able to direct message their opinion to you, whatever that opinion may be whether it's good or bad, I would say to players you've got to do one of two things. "You've either got to take it on the chin, you've got to accept that's the modern world. Or don't look at your phones."

Summary: Somerset all-rounder Peter Trego says the abuse directed at players in Twenty20 cricket has reached "football hooligan levels".


The masked men burst into a house in Dronfield, Derbyshire, in March 2015 after knocking out a 46-year-old man. Two women and three children - aged seven, 11 and 13 - were threatened and the women was believed to have been tied up. Cash and jewellery were stolen from the house during the robbery, which happened on Stubley Lane on 19 March. Shayne West, 34, of Vikinglea Drive, Sheffield; William John Proctor, 36, of Magpie Grove, Sheffield; and Luke Bonsall, 36, of Sandygate Park, Sheffield, have been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery and conspiracy to possess a firearm with intent. They are due to appear before Chesterfield magistrates on 15 July.

Summary: Three men have been charged over a robbery in which three children were allegedly threatened with a gun.


Georgia and Romania have been pushing to be included in the top tier of European rugby. Six Nations boss Feehan is keen to keep the status quo and dismissed relegation talk. "In the short to medium term there is not any genuine likelihood of that happening," said Feehan. Italy were added to the old Five Nations tournament in 2000 and have propped up the table 11 times in the 17 tournaments since. Find out how to get into rugby union with our special guide. But Feehan has dismissed any immediate prospect of relegating the Italians who open their campaign against Wales next Sunday in Rome. "Some comments are very unfair about Italy," Feehan told BBC Radio Wales. "We think they have been a good addition to the Championship since they have entered. "They have improved dramatically but other teams have improved dramatically - it's a relative thing. "It's not that long ago they beat South Africa in the autumn series so they are capable of beating anyone on their day and worthy participants. "We are very happy with how the Italians are approaching things. "There is a long way to go in terms of being competitive to win the title. But on any given day they can beat any of the sides and they have done that, apart from England." The Six Nations have also employed bonus points for the first time although a side who wins the Grand Slam are guaranteed to win the tournament. "It is something we have considered for many years but resisted to date," said Feehan. "If you look at the Six Nations, it is inherently unfair because some teams have three home games and other teams have two home matches in any given year and there is an imbalance. "That word balance is key and we are looking to see whether the benefits we get on encouraging more tries to be scored is better than any direct imbalance. "We decided we had to give it a try to see if it works. "If you look at the the championship two years ago, we ended up with 27 tries on the last day. "Teams can score tries when they wish to and need to. "That's what we are trying to encourage." Listen back to the full John Feehan interview on BBC Radio Wales' Jason Mohammad show on Monday, 30 January.

Summary: Six Nations chief executive John Feehan says relegation from the tournament will not be introduced in the short to medium term.


The world's largest economy grew at an annualised rate of 3.2% in the three months to September, up from an earlier estimate of 2.9%. The figure outstrips the second quarter growth rate of 1.4%, and was above economists' estimates of 3% growth. The Commerce Department said the rate of growth was the strongest since the third quarter of 2014. The strong growth may give further impetus to the Federal Reserve to raise US interest rates when it meets in the middle of next month. A strong employment rate and steadily rising inflation may mean the the central bank is comfortable raising rates at the meeting on 13 and 14 December. The Fed hiked its overnight benchmark interest rate last December for the first time in nearly a decade. The GDP figure is a measure of the goods and services produced across the US economy. The Commerce Department said: "The increase in real GDP in the third quarter primarily reflected positive contributions from personal consumption expenditures, exports, private inventory investment, and federal government spending, that were partly offset by negative contributions from residential fixed investment and state and local government spending." It said consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of the US economy increased at a rate of 2.8%, compared with the initial estimate of 2.1%. But business spending on equipment fell at a steeper 4.8% rate, instead of the previously reported 2.7%.

Summary: Strong consumer spending helped the US economy to grow faster than previously estimated in the third quarter.


The fired officers include Michael Brelo, a patrolman cleared of manslaughter charges over the incident last year. Six other officers are facing suspensions ranging from 21 to 30 days. The shooting followed a high-speed chase that involved 62 police cars and more than 100 officers. Steve Loomis, president of the city's largest police union, said he would contest the firings and suspensions. "This is unprecedented... it's absolutely politically motivated," said Mr Loomis. "This discipline is not supported by fact." The incident began with the sound of a small car in poor repair backfiring, which was mistaken for the sound of gunfire. It ended with the death of Timothy Russell, who was shot 24 times, and Malissa Williams, who was shot 23 times. Several officers fired, but only Officer Brelo faced charges. He stood on the car's bonnet and fired 15 shots through the windscreen in 7.4 seconds. He was cleared of the charges in May of last year, after a judge said that he could not be certain that Mr Brelo was responsible for the deaths.

Summary: Police officials in Cleveland, Ohio, have fired six police officers who shot more than 100 rounds into car and killed an unarmed black couple in 2012.


Figures provided by 27 forces under the Freedom of Information Act revealed nearly 70% of the 363 officers who failed were women. No punitive measures will be taken against those who have not passed, but from September, action could be taken against anyone failing three times. Compulsory testing was introduced in England and Wales last year. In total, nearly 3% of the 13,024 officers tested failed. Devon and Cornwall, Dorset and North Wales were the only three forces with a 100% pass rate The constabularies with the highest percentage of failures were Suffolk (7%), Gwent (6%) and Wiltshire (5%). Suffolk's Deputy Chief Constable Paul Marshall said officers were aware of what was required of them with regard to the national guidelines. He said: "While there is clearly room for improvement, we still have 93% of our officers who have passed. "If anyone is to fail the test then words of advice are given around improving their levels of fitness and programmes can be offered to support this process." Not everyone is required to take the fitness test - only those involved in officer safety training, which includes baton use and arrest techniques. The endurance test involves a series of shuttle runs between two lines 50ft (15m) apart at a steadily increasing pace controlled by means of a speaker emitting "bleep" signals in decreasing time periods. The Police Federation, which represents rank and file officers, had voiced concerns that it might "disproportionately impact on older officers, women and those with disabilities". Federation spokesman Stephen Smith said the statistics were "not particularly surprising". "There could be a number of underlying reasons why an officer might fail the test, such as disability, injury or occupational health reasons," he told BBC News. "What we hope is that forces will be supportive of officers - possibly even with training schedules - and what we expect is that everyone will work together making every effort to ensure people pass." Mr Smith added that officers who failed the fitness test three times would be subject to action under "unsatisfactory performance procedure", but he insisted that did not automatically mean dismissal from the force. Avon and Somerset, Cambridgeshire, Dyfed-Powys, Essex, Northumbria, Staffordshire and Warwickshire have not yet started testing and so could not provide figures. Merseyside said it was considering whether it was in the public interest to release the figures, while South Yorkshire was unable to provide the data. Cumbria, West Midlands, Thames Valley, Metropolitan Police, Humberside and Greater Manchester failed to respond to the request by the Press Association.

Summary: Hundreds of police officers have failed a new compulsory fitness test, figures have shown.


Juliano Pinto, a 29-year-old with complete paralysis of the lower trunk, performed the symbolic kick-off at the Corinthians Arena in Sao Paulo. Using his robotic suit, Mr Pinto kicked the official ball a short distance along a mat laid down by the touchline. But some observers argued the historic event was not given the attention it deserved during the opening ceremony. The identity of the young volunteer was kept a secret until after the event. His robotic exoskeleton was created by a team of more than 150 researchers led by Brazilian neuroscientist Dr Miguel Nicolelis. Dr Nicolelis tweeted called the event a "great team effort" and afterwards tweeted: "We did it!!!" "It was up to Juliano to wear the exoskeleton, but all of them made that shot. It was a big score by these people and by our science," he commented. The neuroscientist, who is based at Duke University in the US, is a leading figure in the field of brain-machine interfaces. In breakthrough work published in 2003, he showed that monkeys could control the movement of virtual arms on an avatar using just their brain activity. The scientists have been working under the banner of a consortium called the Walk Again Project. In a statement, the consortium said the World Cup demonstration would be "just the beginning" of a future "in which people with paralysis may abandon the wheelchair and literally walk again". But some TV networks didn't capture the event, prompting criticism on Twitter. Some commentators also took aim at ceremony organisers for apparently sidelining the moment in favour of performing acts. Dr Nicolelis had been training eight patients at his lab in Sao Paulo, all of whom were over 20 years of age, with the oldest about 35. "It's the first time an exoskeleton has been controlled by brain activity and offered feedback to the patients," Dr Nicolelis, a neuroscientist at Duke University, told the AFP news agency "Doing a demonstration in a stadium is something very much outside our routine in robotics. It's never been done before." The exoskeleton uses a cap placed on the patient's head to pick up brain signals and relay them to a computer in the exoskeleton's backpack. This then decodes the signals and sends them to the legs. The robotic suit is powered by hydraulics, and a battery in the backpack allows for approximately two hours of use. "The basic idea is that we are recording from the brain and then that signal is being translated into commands for the robot to start moving," Dr Gordon Cheng, at the Technical University of Munich, who is a member of the team, told the BBC in May. Dr Cheng led the development of a form of artificial skin for the exoskeleton. This skin consists of flexible printed circuit boards, each containing pressure, temperature and speed sensors. It is applied on the soles of the feet and allows the patient to receive tactile stimulation when walking with the exoskeleton. When the robotic suit starts to move and touches the ground, signals are transmitted to an electronic

Summary: A paraplegic man has made the first kick of the World Cup using a mind-controlled robotic exoskeleton.


Pietersen was the third-highest run-scorer in the recent Big Bash competition in Australia, scoring more half-centuries (four) than anyone else. "Can a handshake take place, a mature conversation?" said Vaughan. "Or has he burnt so many bridges a new set of management couldn't handle him over a three-week period? He could be the X-Factor." Media playback is not supported on this device England will take part in the World Twenty20 in India between 8 March and 3 April. Pietersen, speaking before last summer's Ashes series, said he was "angry and hurt" after director of cricket Andrew Strauss told him he was excluded because "trust had eroded". The 35-year-old batsman last played for England in January 2014 and later released an autobiography criticising some of his team-mates, and officials at the England and Wales Cricket Board. However, he has vast experience of playing in India from his time in the Indian Premier League and starred as England won the World Twenty20 in 2010. In the Big Bash, he scored 323 runs for Melbourne Stars including 62 in the semi-final and 74 in Sunday's final. Asked if the selectors would pick Pietersen, former England captain Vaughan added: "They won't but I would because of the way that he's playing and the level of performance that he's showed. "In front of massive crowds in Australia his batting won the semi-final and almost the final. "A year ago he wasn't playing well enough and he was nowhere near the England team. But the T20 World Cup starts in a few weeks time and I personally want the best team out there for England." England's opening World Twenty20 match is against West Indies in Mumbai on 16 March (09:30 GMT).

Summary: England should recall Kevin Pietersen for the forthcoming World Twenty20, according to Michael Vaughan.


The England hooker, 28, went off on a stretcher after tackling Broncos half-back Anthony Milford. Wane said the operation "went well" but added: "I can't see him playing again this year." McIlorum has played 220 games for the Warriors, winning two Grand Finals and a Challenge Cup.

Summary: Wigan coach Shaun Wane says Michael McIlorum will miss the rest of the year after suffering a broken ankle in the World Club Series defeat by Brisbane.


The 25-year-old scored three times in 21 appearances while on loan at Molineux last season and the two clubs had discussed a transfer. But Wolves will now not take the deal further after Nuno Espirito Santo replaced Paul Lambert as head coach. Weimann thanked his Wolves team-mates and the club's fans on his Twitter account on Tuesday. The Austria international was largely restricted to substitute appearances for Derby in the first five months of the 2016-17 season, starting just once in the Championship. In January, he opted to be reunited with Lambert, who had managed him at Aston Villa, and his crowning moment was scoring in the FA Cup fourth-round win at Liverpool in January. But the Scot's departure from Molineux has ended talks over a permanent switch.

Summary: Wolves have ended their interest in signing Derby forward Andreas Weimann on a permanent deal, BBC WM reports.


They said they belonged to a group called the Masonic Fraternal Police Department, which they claimed dated back to the Knights Templar. One of the trio is a junior aide to California's attorney general. Uniforms, weapons and vehicles were found in premises linked to the group. Brandon Kiel - an aide to state Attorney General Kamala Harris - David Henry and Tonette Hayes were arrested on 30 April and released later that day. "When asked what is the difference between the Masonic Fraternal Police Department and other Police Departments the answer is simple for us. We were here first!" the group's website page reads. "We are born into this Organization, our bloodlines go deeper than an application." According their website, the Masonic Fraternal Police Department was created by the Knights Templar in 1100 BC - although the crusader order was set up more than 2,000 years later. Authorities began investigating the group after police chiefs in southern California received a letter in late January that announced Mr Kiel would be serving as "chief deputy director" of the group. The letter claimed there were 5,686 lodges and that the department "will be able to acquire intel that is not accessible to non-fraternal entities". Los Angeles County sheriff's spokeswoman Nicole Nishida told the Associated Press news agency that there were no indications that the group had carried out any law enforcement activities.

Summary: Three people have been charged in California with impersonating law enforcement officers after claiming to operate a police department with jurisdiction in 33 states.


But the Achievement of Curriculum for Excellence Levels information sets were made available with a warning. The Scottish government said they required further development before their accuracy could be relied upon. The statistics come as it was revealed that pupils do less well in reading, writing and numeracy through their primary years. For example, in reading, 81% of P1 pupils achieved "Early Level", 75% of P4 pupils achieved "First Level" and 72% of P7 pupils achieved "Second Level". However, the figures improve in secondary schools where the proportion of S3 pupils achieving Curriculum for Excellence Third Level or better is between 84% and 87% for each curriculum area which includes reading, writing, listening and talking, and numeracy. By Jamie McIvor, BBC Scotland education correspondent The data on Curriculum for Excellence attainment is being published for the first time. Therefore it is impossible to say from these figures whether things are getting any better or worse. The figures for S3 performance are bound to provoke some discussions. The numbers reaching Level 3 - the basic level expected of an S3 student - are broadly in line with the number of primary school children reaching the levels expected of them. But a relatively small proportion reach the more advanced Level 4. Essentially this is a sign a youngster is academically able. It means that their work at the end of S3 would already be broadly equivalent to the standard required for a National 4 qualification. The National 4 is the qualification, ordinarily obtained a year later in S4, by students who aren't studying for a National 5 or even a Higher. It is broadly equivalent to a General level pass in an old Standard Grade. This may highlight a key challenge - ensuring youngsters continue to make progress in secondary school. Problems, for example, ensuring boys keep on making progress once they leave primary school have been well debated for many years. Another issue with the Level 4 data is that there are significant differences in the data from different part of the countries. The government says there are inconsistencies in the way young people are assessed in different areas. It argues the planned standardised assessments will ensure a far greater degree of consistency.

Summary: Data about how well schools in Scotland do on reading, writing and numeracy has been published for the first time.


The head of Madagascar's FA is the sole challenger to the Cameroonian, who has led Caf since 1988. Central to Ahmad's manifesto is a desire for improved governance, with a commitment to increased transparency and reinvestment outlined. The Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa will host the elections on 16 March. Ahmad, who confirmed his candidacy to the BBC on 12 January, has also said he hopes to bring about 'reconciliation within the different actors of the African football.' "Those who have lost their trust, their confidence in Caf, those who have been long forgotten and those who have been left on their own - they all must join Caf," his manifesto states. Among the other ideas prominent to his candidacy: Ahmad is seen as an outsider to depose Hayatou, who is seeking an eighth term in office, and is eligible to contest the elections given he is already a member of Caf's Executive Committee. The Malagasy has been boosted by receiving the backing of Cosafa, the southern African region. Ahmad is considered the most serious challenger in years to Hayatou, who was re-elected unopposed in 2013.

Summary: Ahmad Ahmad, the man bidding to depose Issa Hayatou as president of the Confederation of African Football (Caf), has unveiled his manifesto.


The Ulster Unionist MP for Fermanagh and South Tyrone was elected in 2015 with DUP support. MPs backed a request from the prime minister to hold a snap general election on 8 June by 522 votes to 13. Sinn Féin's northern leader said Mrs May had shown a "blatant disregard for the people of the north". Michelle O'Neill said the prime minister's announcement of a general election was about "the Tory party's self interest". Meanwhile, the SDLP rejected any suggestion of her party entering a pact with Sinn Féin. DUP MP Ian Paisley said the "deep frost button" had been pressed on power-sharing talks in Northern Ireland. Mr Paisley expressed concerns about the future of the talks process during the general election campaign. "We are seeing the freezer bags come out and the deep frost button being pressed on the Assembly," he said. In the last general election, in May 2015, the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) agreed pacts in four constituencies, including the UK's most tightly-contested seat of Fermanagh and South Tyrone. That pact helped Mr Elliott take the seat from Sinn Féin's Michelle Gildernew - she had held on to it by just four votes in 2010. On Tuesday, UUP leader Robin Swann said he was "open" to discussion on the issue of pacts. Mr Elliott told the BBC on Wednesday it was important that the "people of Northern Ireland have representation at Westminster". He also said talks with the DUP would take place in the days ahead to secure the "best agreement around some constituencies". Earlier, DUP MP Sir Jeffrey Donaldson said his party wanted to "quickly" arrange talks with the UUP on a potential pact. Sir Jeffrey told the BBC's Good Morning Ulster programme that the DUP was "prepared to go further" this time. "We recognise that - if Northern Ireland is to maximise its representation and to have a strong voice in the absence of our own government - then we need to return MPs who will actually take their seats at Westminster," he said. Sinn Féin currently has four MPs but they do not take their seats in the House of Commons, in protest at British rule in Northern Ireland. Sir Jeffrey suggested there should be a new unionist pact in Fermanagh and South Tyrone and "other constituencies as well". The DUP MP highlighted South Belfast as one constituency where the unionists could gain a seat from nationalists by agreeing to stand a single-unity candidate. The seat is currently held by SDLP MP Dr Alasdair McDonnell. However, there will be no reciprocal deal between nationalist parties, according to Dr McDonnell's colleague, South Down MP Margaret Ritchie. Mrs Ritchie told Good Morning Ulster: "We don't do electoral pacts". "The SDLP fights the election - each and every election - on our own mandate and our own basis," she said. Speaking on the same programme, Sinn Féin's national chairperson, Declan Kearney, said his party shared much "common ground" with the SDLP, Alliance and the Green Party on issues such as Brexit, equality and the

Summary: The Ulster Unionist Party is to have talks with the Democratic Unionists about an electoral pact in the "next few days", Tom Elliott has said.


Estimates put the total quantity of waste involved at more than 30,000 tonnes. That amount would fill twelve Olympic-sized swimming pools. The latest site at Galbally, near Dungannon, is the third such find in the area since the Autumn. Experts from the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA) are now linking it to two other dumps discovered previously at Ballygawley and Sandholes. Derek Williamson, from NIEA's Environmental Crime Unit, described the latest find as "significant". He said: "Given the nature of the waste deposited, NIEA is currently linking five ongoing investigations in the east Tyrone area. "We also believe the waste originated in the Republic of Ireland." Mr Williamson said his officials were working closely with the GardaÃ to identify those responsible. The volume of waste at the most recent find is still being assessed. A man was arrested as part of the operation and was later released pending further inquiries. NIEA has appealed for anyone with information on illegal dumping to contact them.

Summary: Investigators say parts of County Tyrone are being used by "unscrupulous criminals" to bury waste following the discovery of a fifth illegal dump there.


Monty the Penguin has become an internet sensation after becoming the face (and beak) of this year's John Lewis Christmas advert. For many, the advert's release marks the countdown to Christmas. For others, it signals the start of a commercial battle to release the most sentimental and memorable campaign in the hope it will translate into profit. Adverts from stores like Waitrose, Asda and Aldi are all set to follow, in the meantime let's find out all you need to know about the penguin who's been trending globally across Twitter. 1. Monty is an Adélie penguin which can be found along the Antarctic coast. They are tough, old birds who breed further south than any other penguin. Brrr! 2. Newly-engaged Benedict Cumberbatch is reportedly gutted* at Monty's fame because he struggles to say the word "penguin". 3. The crux of Monty's story is that he is longing for a mate. A chick to call his own. Don't worry Monty, those urges you are feeling are totally natural. When male and female penguins hook up they become inseparable. They even take it in turns to look after their chicks while their partner is out at sea. 4. As the autumn leaves start to fall and seasons start to change, Monty begins searching for his future wife. This is not surprising as Adélie penguins head to breeding grounds at that time of year. 5. Don't let Monty's cute complexion fool you, he can have a sneaky, mean side. During breeding period, Adélie penguins switch from a calm nature to aggressive. Some have even been filmed stealing rocks from their neighbours' nests. 6. Once Christmas is out of the way and Monty's fame has died down, he may decide to ditch his owner, Sam, for a few days and head to a festival, like Glastonbury or Leeds. A BBC crew which has observed his fellow Adélie penguins reckon he would fit right in because they like to build their nests just out of "pecking distance" of their neighbours, like tents at a festival. 7. Watch out! Monty's owner Sam might just be a genius. He regularly sneaks his beloved Monty fish fingers, the closest most seven-year-old's are going to get to krill or squid, which are Adélie penguins favourite food. 8. Monty gives great advice. 9. If you need Monty to attend a black-tie event at the drop of a hat, fear not. His black and white colouring resembles a rather dapper tuxedo and let's not forget his very distinctive white ringed eyes. 10. Monty likes going sledging with his owner Sam because it gives him a chance to slide downs hills on his jolly white belly. Adélie penguins do this for fun and practical reasons, because it means they can move along ice quickly without becoming tired. *This might not be true.

Summary: Step aside Pingu, there is a new penguin rocking our iceberg.


The 26-year-old finished a career-best second in his Ford Fiesta in the French round in October, his second podium of the season. Evans is seventh in the Championship standings but his future is unclear. "We will see what comes and will look with what happens next year afterwards," he said. "There has been a lot of chat about it [my future], but really to be honest nothing has changed. "At the beginning of the year I wasn't in a position with a contract for next year anyway. "There has been a lot of speculation, I don't see how one rally can change everything, but for sure we want to do our best for myself and the team and it's the team's home event." M-Sport managing director Malcolm Wilson has yet to make a decision on his drivers for next year, with Evans' current deal expiring at the end of 2015. Media playback is not supported on this device But Wilson admitted that a good result in the Wales Rally GB will help the Welshhman when the team hold contract talks at the end of the World Rally Championship. "I am not making a decision on drivers until after this event but in real terms if he has a great result here then that will help, but ultimately that's not going to be the final decision," said Wilson. "There is a lot of other stuff going on that is related to the whole business, and that is why I have not been making a decision, but it's not to say I am not going to have Elfyn in the team next year,. "But we have got so much other stuff going on behind the scenes and the programme being extended to extra events - it is how we work out the resources." Dogellau-born Evans, alongside co-driver Daniel Barritt, took part in the ceremonial start in Llandudno on Thursday evening ahead of Friday's first stage. The son of former British Rally champion Gwyndaf Evans is in his second WRC season and was fifth in last year's Wales Rally GB. "It's been a bit of a mixed and difficult year for us but there's plenty of positives to draw from it as well," Evans added. "We're hoping for the chance to come back and build on that next year. "In terms of competitiveness and stage times we've come leaps and bounds but maybe the results don't quite reflect that for various reasons." Evans is back in Wales for the final round of the World Rally Championships, which Frenchman Sebastien Ogier won for a third year running in September. Ogier has tipped Evans and Northern Ireland's Kris Meeke to do well at Wales Rally GB, which starts in the forests of mid-Wales on Friday. "It's always been a special event," Evans said. "You can still enjoy it at the same time and it's a pretty strange feeling rallying at home after spending 12 rallies away all over the world. "It feels good coming back to familiar stages and familiar conditions. We're sure to enjoy this weekend."

Summary: World Rally Championship driver Elfyn Evans will fight for a podium at Wales Rally GB and potentially for his future with his M-Sport team.


The club's fans have previously booed to express anger at European football's governing body over a number of issues. Uefa opened disciplinary actions against City in October 2015, but decided against any sanctions. The new 2017 disciplinary regulations contain no reference to causing a disturbance during competition anthems.

Summary: Manchester City will not face punishment from Uefa this season if their fans boo the Champions League anthem after a change to regulations.


Police in Aviemore were alerted to the climber's fall at Aladdin's Couloir, Coire an t-Sneachda, in the Northern Corries at about midday. Members of Cairngorm MRT and rescue personnel at Glenmore Lodge went to his aid. The helicopter based at Inverness Airport has airlifted the injured climber to Aberdeen Royal infirmary. He suffered serious head injuries in the fall.

Summary: Mountain rescue teams and an Inverness Coastguard helicopter crew have rescued a fallen climber.


Kneen, 28, won both Superbike events on his way to collecting the man-of-the-meeting award two years ago, and will ride for the Mar-Train Yamaha outfit. Ryan Farquhar takes in the 'big bike' events on his BMW Superstock and the Supertwins class on his KMR Kawasaki. Malachi-Mitchell Thomas competes after taking a treble at the Mid Antrim 150. The Bolton rider is joined in the Cookstown BE Racing team by Dubliner Derek Sheils, who won the feature event at Mid Antrim on 2 April on his 1000cc Suzuki. Farquhar struggled with the stability and electronics on his Superstock machine at Mid Antrim but emerged the victor in the Supertwins and won the opening Superbike race over the 5.3-mile Tandragee circuit last year. William Dunlop is set to campaign his Supersport 600cc Yamaha at the County Armagh meeting, with Republic of Ireland competitors Derek Sheils and Derek McGee also in the mix. The meeting features a nine-race programme, with practicing on Friday and racing on Saturday.

Summary: Manxman Dan Kneen will be out to repeat the form he showed on his debut in 2014 when he takes part in this weekend's Tandragee 100 road races.


The grant is being cut from Â£6.7m to Â£5m by 2020, but most of S4C's funding now comes from the BBC licence fee. The debate, in the Commons, will be led Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire Conservative MP Simon Hart. In December, Broadcasting Minister Ed Vaizey said S4C was well funded, with a "guaranteed income" of Â£90m a year.

Summary: MPs will debate later how Welsh language TV channel S4C should be funded in the future, as its grant from UK ministers continues to shrink.


Argentine forensic scientists said they found no DNA from the students at a rubbish dump outside the town of Cocula. The government says the students were killed there. It said their bodies were burnt, after police handed them over to a gang. But after a year-long investigation the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team concluded there was no biological or physical evidence to show that the 43 students who disappeared in 2014 were burnt and killed at the rubbish dump. The team said they had evidence that there had been a number of fires over the years at the rubbish dump in a canyon outside Cocula but none had been big enough to burn 43 bodies. They said they found bone fragments from 19 people but none came from the students. The government had said that the students were arrested on 26 September 2014 in the town of Iguala around 20 km (12 miles) away by municipal police. The Prosecutor General at the time, Jesus Murillo Karam, said that his investigations had uncovered that the police had handed over the students to a drug trafficking gang who had killed them at the rubbish dump and then built a large funeral pyre with the bodies to burn them. The gang allegedly collected up the ashes and remains after the fire in bags and threw them into a nearby stream. The government has said it has identified the remains of two of the students from the bags, Alexander Mora and Jhosivani Guerrero, although only the first could by fully identified through DNA sampling. The Argentine team said it had not been present when the bags were found so could not be sure of the remains' origins. It said the bones that had been analysed by an Austrian laboratory to identify Alexander Mora, were "unusual in size compared to the other fragments in the same bag". It has also had minimal exposure to fire, the group said, and there was "not any sign of a recent fire in the vegetation" at the rubbish dump. In September, experts from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights concluded the government's original investigation had been deeply flawed. In response to the new report, the Mexican Attorney General's office said the case of the 43 students was not closed and that the authorities were finalising a team to conduct a new analysis of the fire claims as well as looking at new lines of investigation into what had happened to the students. The parents of the students have been campaigning to be given access to military barracks in the area which, they say, may contain clues about the whereabouts of their children. The government has refused to let the soldiers who were in the area at the time of the disappearance be questioned by anyone but government prosecutors.

Summary: A second report into the disappearance of 43 students in the southern Mexican state of Guerrero says there is no evidence to support the official version of what happened to them.


The temperature in Inverness this morning was about 16C - t-shirts, shorts and ice cream-fizzing-in-a-coke float weather - but the couple on the High Street were bundled up in raincoats. The ever present hazard of vox popping in the Highland capital is that nine out of 10 times you will stop a tourist. The visitors, mainly from Europe, come here in their thousands at almost every time of the year, spilling merrily out of coaches that park below the hilltop Inverness Castle. Hundreds of tourists in Inverness on Friday were not only treated to fine summer weather, but the sight of a large pipe band in the High Street. The husband and wife I had stopped were French and gamely entertained my attempt to ask them about the referendum, helped by a few gestures towards the campaign signs tied to nearby lampposts. Two years ago, during the Scottish independence referendum, the High Street was very quickly festooned with Yes signs. This time the campaign notices were slow to appear and, at first, with a notable absence of those backing Remain. BBC Scotland took to the streets of towns and cities across the country to find out what people feel about the decision to leave the EU. As the final results show, however, that the city and wider Highlands and Islands favoured staying in the EU - 56% of those who voted in the Highlands were for Remain, while the figure was 55% in the Western Isles. In 1975, when voters last gave their verdict on European membership, the Western Isles returned a decisive "no". After the isles' latest poll result, islander and Remain campaigner, Lewis MacAskill, told BBC Alba: "It is very significant, especially when you consider the Western Isles was the area back in 1975 that most heavily voted against the then EEC. "It is a sign of how things have changed and how far we have come along." Felix Quero, a Leave campaigner on the islands, conceded the result for him locally was disappointing. But he added: "In the bigger picture it is not such a bad thing. I feel we have rattled the cages of the establishment." Back in Inverness, SNP MP Drew Hendry came into the BBC Scotland studios with a message for the many European migrant workers who live in the city and the wider area. Almost every community in the Highlands has a family or families from Poland, Estonia, Latvia or Hungary. There also Danes, Spanish and Germans. Mr Hendry said: "I think people will be shocked about the result and worried. "But the vote in the Highlands, and across Scotland, show that Scotland sees its place firmly in the EU. "We are saying very clearly to those EU citizens who live here in the Highlands, who live across Scotland, who are our friends and neighbours, that we will do absolutely everything in our power to make sure we are protecting them and their ability to live and work here." Meanwhile, Inverness Chamber of Commerce chief executive Stewart Nicol said the implications of the result for

Summary: Their jackets were a giveaway.


Cristian Montano was a constant threat, testing Magpies goalkeeper Scott Loach with an early shot, before bursting into the box to score before half-time. Notts had gone close through Wes Atkinson and Izale McLeod, but Lee Brown got Rovers' second after the break when he fired in from 18 yards. McLeod missed with a header as the hosts made a late fight-back. The defeat comes days after chief executive Julian Winter left the club for Huddersfield, while angry home fans raised a banner in the Kop that was removed by stewards.

Summary: Bristol Rovers kept up their League Two promotion bid by consigning Notts County to a fifth game without victory.


A pregnant traveller, 18, said she was put in a ward on her own and not allowed visitors, as "she was a Gypsy". It was one account uncovered in a study into Gypsy and travellers' experiences of the Welsh NHS. Health Secretary Vaughan Gething said there were "real challenges" and more needed to be done. Chairwoman of the assembly's Gypsy and Traveller Committee Labour AM Julie Morgan said the discrimination was an "absolute disgrace". According to the last official count over 900 Gypsy and traveller families live in caravans across Wales, with 35% living on sites in Cardiff and Pembrokeshire alone. In what is thought to be the first survey of its kind in Europe, about 100 Gypsies and travellers were interviewed by community champions as part of the study, between April 2016 and March 2017. Travellers spoke of difficulties accessing GP services, claiming they faced discrimination from receptionists and barriers filling in registration forms as many are illiterate. A distrust of dentists also led to children saying they had needed to have between 10 and 20 rotten teeth removed. Report author Dr Adrian Marsh said while some GPs gave travellers prescriptions for during the summer period, when they travel to festivals and cultural events, others did not. He said large numbers of visitors descending on hospital wards during visiting hours often created tensions and lead to conflict. Some evidence of good practice especially in north Wales were also highlighted in the report. Speaking at the report's launch at the Pierhead in Cardiff Mrs Morgan said the experiences of the community were often "very negative" and people were nervous of seeking help. She said she hoped the report could be a blueprint for improving services for a community which was "one of the most stigmatised" in Wales. "It's very shocking to hear some of the ways people have been treated in the health service," she said. "There have been very good examples, very good relationships with district nurses, with GPs, but also a lot of stories of discrimination; difficulties getting access to the health service, ways people had been treated, stigma, and this really illustrates it, and it is really something we have got to tackle." Mr Gething said the Welsh Government was working in partnership with health boards to improve access to NHS services for communities. "I know we are not a perfect country but I do think we are doing the right thing to make sure there is equality," he said.

Summary: Gypsies and travellers are facing barriers to accessing health care in Wales due to discrimination, a report suggests.


The service at Holy Trinity Church was followed by a parade to Victoria Pier to cast wreaths into the Humber. Keith Thompson, organising the parade, said during the conflict the Royal Navy requisitioned more vessels registered in Hull than from any other British port. Trawlers, tugs and a North Sea Ferry, Norland, were manned by volunteers. Argentina invaded the Falkland island in April 1982. About 650 of its troops, 255 British servicemen and three Falklands civilians died in two months of fighting. The Norland Hull to Rotterdam passenger ferry landed Royal Marines and other forces in San Carlos Water and was often attacked by Argentine forces. Mr Thompson, a Falklands veteran from the Norland, said in total nine Hull-registered vessels sailed - "the largest Falklands task force from one port". Later in the conflict, the Norland transported prisoners of war back to Argentina and returned to Hull in 1983. She was scrapped in 2010. During today's wreath-laying service on the pier, Hull firm SMS Towage was due to pull a tug down the Humber with jets firing as a mark of respect. Mr Thompson said the public was invited to attend the service and the pier parade to lay flowers "for a loved one lost at sea in war or in peace time". In the world wars hundreds of Hull trawlers and crews were also requisitioned by the Admiralty and used as minesweepers and patrol craft. Many merchant seamen were killed in action. The memorial service took place at Holy Trinity, the nearest church to the port.

Summary: A memorial has taken place to remember Hull's vessels used in the 1982 Falklands conflict.


Laura Stewart, 20, was walking on North Hanover Street with her friend Mhairi Convy, 18, when they were hit by a Range Rover on 17 December. The funeral of Ms Stewart, an accounts student from Cumbernauld, was held at Our Lady and St Helen's Parish Church in her home town. About 200 people attended the ceremony to pay their respects. Outside the church floral tributes were laid, including the name "Laura" written out in red and white flowers opposite the word "sister" in purple flowers. Tributes left with the flowers included a card saying "with all our love for always, mum and dad" and another to a "beautiful" girl who was a "loving friend and sister". The order of service showed a photo of the student with the words "Courage grows strong at a wound" - the motto of the Stewart clan. Mourners wept as the white coffin with purple handles was carried out of the church to the hymn Walk With Me Oh My Lord. Father Gerald Sharkey led the procession out of the church through the snow. The body was then driven to Eastfield Cemetery in Cumbernauld for a private burial. Ms Stewart and Ms Convy, of Lennoxtown, studied at Glasgow College of Commerce. Following the crash, the two women were taken to Glasgow Royal Infirmary, where they died. A 36-year-old male pedestrian and the 50-year-old male driver of the Range Rover were also treated in hospital after the crash. Strathclyde Police are investigating the deaths.

Summary: Hundreds of mourners gathered for the funeral of a student who died after a 4x4 mounted a kerb in Glasgow.


One firm received more than £5m despite winning a contract valued at less than £300,000, while another was paid more than £500,000 without bidding at all. Both are owned by former acquaintances of Southern Health NHS Trust's chief executive Katrina Percy. The trust said it took its financial responsibilities "very seriously". The BBC has also learned Southern Health has access to the services of former Labour spin doctor Alastair Campbell, after it hired Portland Communications to help with its ongoing problems. Mental health trust Southern Health has been under intense scrutiny since an NHS England-commissioned report in December found it failed to investigate the unexpected deaths of hundreds of patients. A failure of leadership and governance at the trust was blamed for the problems, a conclusion a subsequent CQC report in April agreed with. In light of the criticisms, Katrina Percy, the only chief executive the trust has ever had, has faced widespread calls to resign but has refused to do so. 2006 - Management consultant Chris Martin and Katrina Percy start working together during her capacity as chief operating officer at Surrey and Sussex Hospitals 2009 - Ms Percy becomes chief executive of Hampshire Community Health Care and Mr Martin follows her, providing coaching and leadership support 2010 - Mr Martin starts a firm of organisational psychologists called Talent Works Ltd, whose website says they are "experts in culture and behaviour change" 2010 - In December, Southern Health advertises for management development support. The tender has a value of £288,000, and the contract is to last three years, with an option for a one year extension 2011 - Ms Percy joins Southern Health as chief executive and the work is awarded to Talent Works Ltd 2014 - The initial three year contract ends and the firm is paid £5.365m - an over-spend approaching 2,000%. The trust chooses to exercise its option for a one-year extension Now she is facing fresh questions about two former associates, Chris Martin and Paul Gray, whose companies were paid by Southern Health. Roy Lilley, former chairman of an NHS trust and now a health policy expert, said the overspend on Mr Martin's company was "extraordinary". He said: "It really doesn't look good, and it casts a deep shadow over the people involved and the way in which the trust has been run by the board." A former governor at Southern Health, John Green, who has a background in running quality management programmes, said he queried the work that Talent Works was doing at the trust. "I was fobbed off," Mr Green said. "I didn't get any information for well over a year. I believe the spending of public money in the NHS is nothing as accountable to the public as it should be." Paul Gray worked with Ms Percy as director of strategy at Hampshire Community Health Care and his firms made money from the trust without having to bid for a contract. In July 2009, he set up consultancy firm Consilium Strategy Consulting Ltd and in 2014 he formed a second company, Consilium Partners Ltd.

Summary: A troubled NHS trust has paid millions of pounds to companies owned by previous associates of its embattled chief executive, BBC News has learned.


The government should, if necessary, negotiate with their captors to secure their release, a protester said. The Islamist group Boko Haram has been blamed for abducting the girls from their school in Chibok, Borno state. Boko Haram has not yet made any response to the accusation. The group, whose name means "Western education is forbidden" in the local Hausa language, has staged a wave of attacks in northern Nigeria in recent years, with an estimated 1,500 killed in the violence and subsequent security crackdown this year alone. Organisers said about 500 people, most of them women dressed in red, braved heavy rain to march to the National Assembly to hand over a letter to complain that the government was not doing enough to secure the release of the girls. By Will RossBBC News, Abuja The demonstration was small - just a few hundred people - but emotions were running high. There has been a great deal of anger in Nigeria because many have the impression that the government is doing far too little to secure the release of the teenage girls who are believed to be in the hands of the Islamist extremist group, Boko Haram. Parents of the abducted students have been left to rely on rumours as officials have said very little. In the pouring rain, people marched to the National Assembly and delivered their message to the politicians themselves. The Senate President David Mark was there. He told the drenched crowd that the military must do everything within its means to rescue the students. More rallies are due to be held over the next few days. Some here are determined that the plight of the missing school girls is not allowed to be ignored by the political elite - many of whom send their own children to schools overseas far from the vulnerable students of north east Nigeria. The protest, labelled the "million-woman march", had been called by the Women for Peace and Justice organisation. March organiser Mercy Abang told the BBC's Focus on Africa radio programme that the government should do whatever is necessary, even if it meant holding negotiations with the abductors, to make sure the girls returned home "alive - not in body bags". Anger has mounted in recent days over the abductions. Parents have criticised the government's search and rescue efforts and the number of missing girls has been disputed. Nigeria's Interior Minister Abba Moro told BBC Focus on Africa that he understood the "outpouring of emotions", but the government could not divulge details of what it was doing to secure the release of the girls. It had to act in a "discreet" way because the militants had threatened to kill the girls if "certain steps" were taken, he said. He accused opposition parties of politicising the crisis and said they should work with the government rather than criticise it. Another march organiser, Hadiza Bala Usman, told the BBC the women wanted to know why soldiers seemed so ill-equipped to find the girls. She warned that the abductions would discourage parents from sending their daughters

Summary: Hundreds of mainly women protesters have marched through the Nigerian capital, Abuja, to press for the release of 230 schoolgirls abducted by militants two weeks ago.


James Brokenshire said he "would come forward with further information in my own way in respect of the next step around the talks process". Mr Brokenshire was speaking ahead of meeting Irish Foreign Affairs Minister Simon Coveney in Dublin. He said discussions with the parties later this week would help inform his decision. The secretary of state added he was going forward with "positive intent" but that "differences firmly do remain". "My priority is to see the restoration of the devolved institutions in Northern Ireland, working on a sustainable basis to deliver good government for everyone," Mr Brokenshire said. Mr Brokenshire said: "Over the summer I have kept in touch with the political parties and I will be bringing them together over the next week as we enter a new phase of talks. "Urgent progress is required. The lack of an executive making key decisions on matters including health and education means that public services in Northern Ireland are suffering. "We need to find a way forward that will allow an executive to be formed." Mr Coveney said he planned to visit Belfast next week to meet politicians. "Northern Ireland needs a voice through a government of its own," he said. "We need to see a resumption to those discussions and hopefully a conclusion as soon as possible. "We don't want talks that are ongoing for a long period of time." Sinn FÃ©in's northern leader has written to the UK and Irish governments proposing a formal resumption of power-sharing talks. Michelle O'Neill suggested parties should be given a tight deadline from next Monday to restore the government. The Democratic Unionist Party's (DUP) Simon Hamilton described her proposal as a "stunt", saying his party had been ready to form an executive for months. Northern Ireland has been without a functioning devolved government since January. The coalition led by the two biggest parties, the DUP and Sinn FÃ©in, collapsed over a green energy scandal. Formal talks were suspended without agreement at the start of July.

Summary: The secretary of state has refused to say when talks aimed at restoring devolution at Stormont will resume.


The legal team of the former pop star, real name Paul Gadd, argued media coverage had made a fair trial impossible. But three judges said there was nothing "unsafe" about the conviction. The 71-year-old was jailed for 16 years in February for offences at the height of his fame, between 1975 and 1980. He had denied the allegations against him. A jury at Southwark Crown Court found him guilty of one count of attempted rape, one of unlawful sexual intercourse with a girl under 13, and four counts of indecent assault. At his sentencing, Judge McCreath told him his victims were "profoundly affected". He said the offence of attempted rape was "so serious" as to justify the maximum available sentence. Gadd was jailed in Vietnam in 2006 for molesting two girls aged 11 and 12. He later became the first person to be arrested under Operation Yewtree, the investigation launched by the Metropolitan Police following the Jimmy Savile scandal.

Media playback is not supported on this device Eli Walker finished a slick Ospreys move for the opening try, before Rory Hughes' score put Glasgow 13-10 up at half-time. Sam Davies' boot kept Ospreys in touch but Ryan Grant's controversial try restored the visitors' lead. Ospreys levelled again with Dan Evans' incisive score and Davies missed a late chance to win the game as his drop-goal attempt sailed wide. The hosts stay seventh in the Pro12 table, while Glasgow reclaim eighth spot from Cardiff Blues. Buoyed by a European Champions Cup win against Racing 92 in their last outing, Glasgow made a strong start and led 6-0 thanks to two Duncan Weir penalties. Ospreys responded first with a Davies penalty and then a smartly worked try from a line-out move, which culminated in a pop pass from centre Josh Matavesi to wing Walker, who sped over unopposed. There was also deft handling in Glasgow's opening score, with lock Leone Nakarawa offloading brilliantly for wing Hughes to touch down in the corner. A second Davies penalty brought Ospreys level at 13-13 early in the second half, but Glasgow soon restored their lead with a contentious try. Referee Peter Fitzgibbon consulted television match official Jon Mason and, although there appeared to be a double movement from back row Ryan Wilson, the score was awarded as prop Grant plunged over from close range. Ospreys equalised for the second time with 10 minutes left to set up a tense finale, with Davies' break and offload setting up full-back Evans to cross for their second try. Davies had an opportunity to put the hosts in front three minutes later but pulled his drop-goal wide. Ospreys: Dan Evans, Tom Grabham, Owen Watkin, Josh Matavesi, Eli Walker, Sam Davies, Brendon Leonard (capt); Nicky Smith, Sam Parry, Dmitri Arhip, Rynier Bernardo, Rory Thornton, Joe Bearman, Sam Underhill, Dan Baker Replacements: Scott Otten, Gareth Thomas, Ma'afu Fia, Adam Beard, Olly Cracknell, Tom Habberfield, Ben John, JJ Engelbrecht Glasgow Warriors: Peter Murchie; Lee Jones, Taqele Naiyaravoro, Sam Johnson, Rory Hughes, Duncan Weir, Grayson Hart; Ryan Grant, Pat MacArthur, Sila Puafisi, Greg Peterson, Leone Nakarawa, Rob Harley, Chris Fusaro, Ryan Wilson (capt) Replacements: James Malcolm, Gordon Reid, D'arcy Rae, Josh Strauss, James Eddie, Ali Price, Gregor Hunter, Glenn Bryce Referee: Peter Fitzgibbon (IRFU) Assistant referees: Leighton Hodges, Wayne Davies (both WRU) Citing commissioner: Gwyn Bowden (WRU) TMO: Jon Mason (WRU)

Summary: Ospreys and Glasgow shared four tries in an entertaining draw in the Pro12.


Debbie Jevans made the comments after a tweet by World Rugby chief executive Brett Gosper said an early England exit was "not what they wanted to hear". Jevans would be "very upset" if England failed to make it out of their group but not in an official capacity. "From our perspective it doesn't make a difference," Jevans said. "Of course you think about it when you look at the tough group England are in and the impact that may or may not have, but I think our job as an organising committee is to make sure that we deliver an event that is the best it can be." The 48-match tournament begins on 18 September when England play Fiji at Twickenham. Stuart Lancaster's side are also in the same pool as Australia, Wales and Uruguay and only two will make it through to the knockout round. Wales head coach Warren Gatland, whose side are in the same group as England, said he was "surprised" by Gosper's comments. Jevans says she would like an England versus New Zealand final but claims the tournament's success does not hinge on the hosts' performance. "Our focus is not about who wins or is in the final," Jevans added. "From a delivery perspective we are genuinely looking at it as delivering for 20 teams and making sure they can all compete to the best of their ability. "Our biggest selling ticket so far has been Argentina v New Zealand so I am not at all concerned about England being the sole focus of the Rugby World Cup."

Summary: The chief executive of England's World Cup organising committee wants the hosts to make the knockout phase but says it's not essential for the event.


The terror attacks that traumatised this small nation have dominated political life and the media in Norway ever since. Norwegians are weary of the wall-to-wall media coverage of the Breivik attacks but they are still searching for answers about what happened that day. In particular, the victims' families want to know why it took police so long to respond. The former justice minister Knut Storberget and the former chief of security services (PST) Janne Kristiansen, both in charge at the time, were forced to resign under heavy criticism of the handling of the terror attacks. After months of criticism, the police, the PST and Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg finally apologised in March. The catalogue of police errors on the day is currently under investigation and will be a main subject of the independent public inquiry into the attacks which is due to be published in August. Oslo District Court has built a new, custom-made courtroom (no 250) for Breivik's trial, and refurbished two floors to accommodate the media and the many aggrieved parties who will be following the trial. Geir Engebretsen, president of the court, says the trial is estimated to cost around Â£10m (12.1m euros; $15.9m). He expects there to be between 1,000-1,400 people in the court building every day during the trial, however there are only 190 places available in the main courtroom which are reserved for the victims and members of the press. An estimated 2,500 people will be able to follow the trial via video link in 18 local courts around the country. The police have the responsibility of securing the building and have promised that everyone will feel safe. Breivik himself will be protected in court by a bulletproof screen. He has received at least two confirmed death threats in prison. The case will be heard by a panel of five judges rather than a jury: two professional judges and three lay judges who are general members of the public. The accused: Anders Behring Breivik (33) Judges: Wenche Elizabeth Arntzen, Arne Lyng Lay Judges: Ernst Henning Eielsen, Thomas Indreboe, Diana Patricia Fynbo Public Prosecutors: Inga Bejer Engh and Svein Holden Counsel for the Defence: Geir Lippestad, Tord Jordet, Odd Ivar Groen, Vibeke Hein Baera Co-ordinating Counsel for the aggrieved parties: Mette Yvonne Larsen, Siv Hallgren, Frode Elgesem Expert witnesses: Torgeir Husby, Synne Soerheim, Agnar Aspaas, Terje Toerrisen The trial is expected to finish on 22 June. The verdict, due some weeks later, can be appealed. The trial will begin with the indictment read out by the prosecution. Breivik is expected to take the stand on Tuesday 17 April and will have several days to testify. While the prosecution will call more than 90 witnesses, Breivik's lawyers will summon up to 40. Controversially, his defence counsel has notified the court it will call a number of far right extremists including a prolific Norwegian blogger, known as Fjordman, whom Breivik quoted extensively in his manifesto. They will also call members of the Labour Party and Progress Party, as well as writers and experts on terrorism and psychiatry. Several public

Summary: Preparations for the trial of Anders Behring Breivik have been going on since his dramatic arrest on the island of Utoeya on 22 July last year.


Opposition councillors accused the ruling Labour group of "arrogance" and not listening to the public's concerns. The plans had also prompted protests outside the council's offices on Wednesday. Council leader Peter Marland said he was "disappointed" but would work with other parties to agree a new budget. The authority's provisional 2015-16 budget had included £1.5m cuts to bus services, and reduced funding for the Citizens' Advice Bureau. Homeless shelters faced possible closure under the plans, and the removal of other funding could have forced some scout groups to shut down. Liberal Democrat leader, Douglas McCall, accused council leaders of refusing to listen to public concerns or engage with opposition parties. He described their approach to a public consultation as "arrogant". However, Mr Marland said a record consultation response showed the authority was listening. "What we couldn't do is persuade enough opposition politicians that what we were doing was ultimately right," he said. Former Conservative group leader Andrew Geary said his party had predicted savings for five years and put forward a "clear strategy" for delivering them when it was in control. "You simply can't amend something that is not built on a solid foundation and this budget is built on the sand and it will collapse and it won't deliver." The authority is set to meet again next week to discuss the revised proposals. Analysis Paul Scoins, Political reporter, BBC Three Counties After the political grandstanding comes the negotiation. Concessions will be made but the key sticking point of provision for homeless people will remain a subject for debate. The council will then need to agree that budget and, if they fail, the government will step in and act, most likely freezing the budget in its current state. More than £90m needs to be saved over the next few years and Labour says difficult decisions are inevitable. Sources within the leadership group say they would be surprised if an agreement cannot be reached, suggesting the "nuclear option" of handing the decision to communities secretary Eric Pickles would be something all parties would find difficult to swallow.

Summary: Proposals for £22m council budget cuts in Milton Keynes have been rejected over fears they would adversely affect vulnerable people.


The void, which goes under the road on Cage Lane in Thetford, is about 3m (10ft) long and 1.5m (5ft) wide, Norfolk County Council said. A lamp-post that was precariously close to the hole has been removed by workmen and the road cordoned-off. The BBC has been unable to get in touch with the museum, but a volunteer told the Eastern Daily Press at the scene it would be open as normal this Saturday. Much of the original Dad's Army BBC TV series, based around the British Home Guard during World War Two, was shot in and around Thetford, using locations such as Thetford Forest. Eyewitness Gavin Hodge said he noticed the hole at about 13:00 and said when he looked down it there was "quite a void" filled with masonry and rubble. In a statement, Norfolk County Council said: "Part of it is under the pavement which is starting to give way but it also stretches under the road, which is intact but beginning to crack. "Tomorrow the county council is planning to fill in the gap and make it safe. We're then planning to resurface the road on Monday with the hope that the road can re-open in the afternoon. "There's no obvious reason why this gap has opened up. Anglian Water have investigated and have confirmed there are no leaks that would have contributed to it and there's no recent history of similar problems in the vicinity."

Summary: A sinkhole has opened up outside the Dad's Army Museum in Norfolk.


Arbroath won at Clyde, Elgin City beat visitors Edinburgh City and Annan Athletic hammered Stirling Albion. And Montrose's 2-1 win over Berwick Rangers to move above Clyde in fifth. Shane Sutherland got a hat-trick in Elgin's 3-1 defeat of Edinburgh, while Smart Osadolor and Max Wright each scored twice for Annan. At Station Park, Cowden's Dale Carrick put the visitors ahead, but Josh Peters brought Forfar level after the break. And Thomas O'Brien and Lewis Milne netted to secure a 3-1 win for the hosts. Colin Hamilton put Arbroath ahead away to Clyde only for Peter MacDonald to equalise. However, the Bully Wee went down to 10 men when Ryan Finnie received a second booking and Ricky Little's free-kick made it 2-1 to Arbroath. Sutherland scored twice for Elgin before Craig Beattie pulled one back for Edinburgh and completed his treble from the penalty spot. Stirling led against Annan through Blair Henderson, but Osadolor scored either side of half-time and Wright added two more for the Galabankies to round off a 4-1 victory. Montrose trailed against Berwick early in the second half as Michael McKenna scored, but the hosts levelled through Chris Templeman and Ryan Ferguson netted the winner.

Summary: Forfar Athletic came from behind to beat bottom side Cowdenbeath and remain eight points clear at the top of Scottish League Two.


Gwent Police also confirmed the baby, discovered on wasteland close to Imperial Park on 29 January, was a boy. The baby had been wrapped in a white towel with the words "St Annes" written along the edge and placed in the leather bag, police said. The death is being treated as unexplained. A post mortem previously showed the baby had been born at about full-term. The force added it would be an "incredibly distressing" time for the baby's mother and it wanted to offer her "the right support". Police have previously posted a video on social media urging the mother to get in touch.

Summary: Police searching for the mother of a newborn baby found dead in Newport have released an image of a bag identical to the one the child was found in.


Tries from Bill Meakes, James Hook and Ross Moriarty coupled with Hook's accuracy with the boot gave the Cherry and Whites a 25-6 half-time lead. A scrappy second half saw little more than a couple of confrontations between both sides, before Gloucester's Tom Savage crossed the whitewash. Gloucester are now just three points behind fourth-placed Northampton. Newcastle went into the match on the back of consecutive home victories over Leicester and Northampton, but a lacklustre display before the break ensured the match was over by half-time. Relive Gloucester's win over Newcastle here Gloucester, however, looked buoyed by last weekend's 25-12 loss at leaders Saracens and came flying out of the blocks, despite losing Jacob Rowan to a first-minute head injury. Australian wing Meakes collected Willi Heinz's pinpoint grubber kick to open the scoring before instrumental Wales international Hook wriggled through to add a second try shortly after. Flanker Moriarty then dived over following some quick hands from Heinz and Mariano Galarza just before the half-time whistle. As the game turned niggly after the break, neither side was able to string any attacking momentum together until replacement lock Savage crashed over. Newcastle's only saving grace from a disappointing afternoon was Worcester's 38-18 defeat at Northampton, which saw them stay two points ahead of Warriors in 10th and seven points clear of bottom side London Irish. Gloucester director of rugby David Humphreys told BBC Radio Gloucestershire: Media playback is not supported on this device "In the same way that we reacted very positively immediately after the Leicester defeat, we got the same reaction today - I thought the players were outstanding. "I thought the last 10 minutes were much better, we stayed patient, subs came on and made a difference, made a real impact. "There's a sense of relief more than anything else I think after that game because we played so well that we felt we just deserved the bonus point.

The five were jailed in September for raping a Finnish woman during a World League tournament in Tampere. The appeals court in the south-western city of Turku reduced the five-year sentences handed down to four of them. The longest of the revised prison terms is that of Osmany Uriarte Mestre - four years. Luis Sosa Sierra was acquitted. Ricardo Calvo Manzano will now serve three-and-a-half years, team captain Rolando Cepeda Abreu two-and-a-half years and Alfonso Gavilan one year and three months. They were detained in the southern Finnish city on 2 July after a woman said she had been raped at a hotel. The men denied the accusation. The team had been taking part in a tournament ahead of the Rio Olympics when the rape took place at their hotel. Eight men were originally held. Two were released soon afterwards. In September the Tampere court heard that two of the players had met the woman in a nightclub in the hotel basement. She later went to the room of Uriarte Mestre and consented to sex. However, Uriarte Mestre was then said to have texted the other men without the woman's knowledge. They entered the room and subjected her to a lengthy ordeal and held her by the hair to prevent her leaving. When she was eventually allowed to leave, she complained to the hotel receptionist who called police. The Cuban players were found guilty of aggravated rape and ordered to pay â‚¬24,000 (Â£21,076; $27,383) in compensation to the victim. As the allegations emerged, two of the team coaches were sacked. Despite its depleted squad, Cuba fielded a team in Rio and lost all five of its matches.

Summary: A Finnish court has cut the jail terms of four members of Cuba's national volleyball team found guilty of rape, and released a fifth.


Police were called to the vessel near Wroxham Island, on Wroxham Broad, at about 16:00 BST after concerns were raised about the length of time it had not moved. Officers found the two people and the dog and have started an inquiry into their deaths. Norfolk Police said the deaths are being treated as unexplained. Police have sealed the site while officers from Great Yarmouth CID conduct investigations.

Summary: Two people and a dog have been found dead on a boat moored on the Norfolk Broads.


At least 183 procedures have been cancelled at hospitals across the north-east since the beginning of November, the health board said. They include 13 procedures due to take place at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary since 1 January. The health board blamed "staffing challenges and winter pressures, not budgetary constraints". It said it had problems filling vacancies due to complex training requirements of theatre nursing but procedures were only rearranged as a "last resort". A patients' group raised concerns that elderly patients were being affected disproportionately because of the lack of staff with specialist skills. The Patient Action Co-ordination Team, which provides support to patients in Grampian, said orthopaedics and eye surgery for conditions such as cataracts are among those worst affected. It said that because these are ailments which predominantly affect older people, they are worst affected by the number of cancellations. The patients group also warned that the cancellations will affect the north-east health authority's waiting time target performance. Dr Annie Ingram, director of workforce at NHS Grampian, said: "We've made huge progress over the last year but, like other public sector organisations in Grampian, we face challenges in recruiting." "We apologise to any patients whose procedures have had to be re-scheduled." She said that around 30,000 operations are carried out every year in the region and the number which are postponed is usually between 1 and 2%. "Rearranging elective procedures is a last resort for us and is done according to clinical prioritisation: our most clinically urgent patients will still be seen," she added. "When providing staff for a theatre list of operations on any given day, the theatre nurses must meet the needs and skills required for that speciality and have enough knowledge to act as a skilled practitioner to maintain safe practice. "Vacancies have been difficult to fill due to the requirement to try and train staff in what is a complex area of nursing. "Normally when staffing is at a sufficient level, staff rotate specialties, gaining more knowledge and skills in a variety of different areas and subsequently building more resilience into the service."

Summary: NHS Grampian has had to cancel routine operations because of a shortage of theatre nurses.


Nerijus Gudelevicius would entice Lithuanians to the UK with the promise of paid work, delivering and collecting charity clothes bags. The 34-year-old, of Westlea, Swindon, was found guilty at Swindon Crown Court of two charges of human trafficking. He was cleared of a further four charges of slavery and released on conditional bail. The court heard Gudelevicius would pay workers between Â£10 and Â£30 a week - but sometimes payments were made every fortnight or three weeks. He would also charge them Â£40-a-week in rent, if they needed accommodation. Gudelevicius, originally from Lithuania, is due to sentenced at Salisbury Crown Court on 19 June. Following the judgement, acting Det Insp Rob Findlay said the verdict was a "positive result" following months of robust investigation work. "The victims of human trafficking are often very vulnerable people who are used as simple commodities - often for the financial gain of the perpetrators," he said. "Wiltshire Police will always treat human trafficking as a priority and vigorously investigate, along with our partners, such incidents. "Community-based intelligence proves crucial in investigations such as this, and I would always urge anyone with information or concerns about potential victims of modern slavery to contact us."

Summary: A man has been found guilty of human trafficking in what police have called a case of "modern slavery".


Joshua Wong, Nathan Law and Alex Chow are accused of climbing a fence to break into a government compound at the start of the demonstrations. Mr Wong, 18, has said he did not do anything illegal. The protests, against proposed changes to Hong Kong electoral system, began in late September. At the height of the movement, tens of thousands of people were occupying major streets demanding fully free elections for the territory's next leader, after Beijing said it would vet potential candidates. The three students were among a large group of people who stormed the fenced-off Civic Square inside a government compound on 26 September, as an act of protest. Images of the students being forcibly removed from the square by police, and other subsequent allegations of abuse of force by police, invigorated the protest movement. Mr Chow has now been charged with taking part in an illegal assembly and Mr Law with inciting others to take part, while Mr Wong, leader of the Scholarism movement, faces both charges. Mr Wong could be jailed for up to five years, but said he would not regret his actions and that it was a "political prosecution". He said the break-in was "the best decision I have made within the four years I have been involved in the social movement and student movement". Mr Wong's lawyer, Michael Vidler, said charging the trio so long after the event was "totally flawed" and a "clear abuse of process", AFP news agency reports. Mr Wong and Mr Law are already facing charges of obstructing police officers.

Summary: Three prominent Hong Kong student leaders have been charged over their roles in the pro-democracy "Umbrella Movement" of 2014.


Spurs had struggled to break down a disciplined Palace side for much of the game and it looked like they would have to settle for a point. But Eriksen fired into the bottom corner from 30 yards late on to keep Spurs within four points of Chelsea with five games remaining. Palace, who lost influential defender Mamadou Sakho to injury in the second half, rarely threatened as they concentrated on frustrating the visitors. The win means Tottenham move on to 74 points, surpassing their previous best ever Premier League total of 72 - set in 2012-13 - when they finished fifth. If they beat rivals Arsenal on Sunday it will ensure they finish above the Gunners in the table for the first time since the 1994-95 season. Palace, meanwhile, remain 12th - seven points above the relegation zone. Relive Tottenham's win at Crystal Palace Tottenham needed victory to not just stay in touch with Chelsea but also put behind them the FA Cup semi-final defeat to the Blues on Saturday. Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino had been adamant that the 4-2 loss at Wembley would not hurt his players mentally in the title pursuit but that assessment initially looked incorrect as they struggled against a well-drilled Palace. Eriksen, so often the centre of everything good Tottenham did against Chelsea, was kept quiet while Dele Alli and Harry Kane struggled to provide a spark in attack as the visitors finished the first half with just one shot on target. Pochettino brought on Son Heung-min and Moussa Sissoko for the second half and changed to a back four in an effort to find a breakthrough. As time went on it looked more and more likely that victory would elude them but to their credit they stayed patient before a moment of magic from Eriksen finally unlocked the Palace defence. The forward took full advantage of a moment when he was afforded a rare bit of space, shooting from distance beyond the reach of Palace keeper Wayne Hennessey. It was not a classic performance by a Tottenham side that has scored at least three goals in each of their last three Premier League games but it was one that showed they have the ability to dig in and grind out a result - a side of their game that could prove crucial in the title run in. Media playback is not supported on this device It could have been a different game if Tottenham lost Victor Wanyama to a second booking in the first half. After picking up an early yellow card for a bad foul, the midfielder slid in late on Andros Townsend. Referee Jon Moss took Wanyama to one side, but let him off with a warning. Pochettino opted to withdraw Wanyama at half time, but Palace boss Sam Allardyce felt he should never have had the option to do that in the first place. "Jon Moss should have sent him off," said Allardyce. "The second challenge was probably more of a booking than the first one. "It is disappointing for us, it is

Summary: Tottenham kept up the pressure on Premier League leaders Chelsea as Christian Eriksen's superb long-range strike secured a hard-fought victory at Crystal Palace.


They say the man, named as Richard White, 62, attacked an airport security worker with wasp spray before striking another on the arm with a large knife. Police said he was "unresponsive" after being shot in the leg, chest and face but was taken to a local hospital. Several bystanders were said to have been treated for minor injuries. Jefferson Parish Sheriff Newell Normand told reporters it was unclear whether White was at the airport as a traveller. "We're still piecing together witness interviews," he said. He said White, a taxi driver, had "little or no criminal history". He was alive and in surgery, Sheriff Normand added. Those making their way to and from flights in the busy terminal reported chaotic scenes as the incident unfolded. Jeremy Didier, who had just arrived on a flight from Florida, said he saw a man "jumping over people" in the queue at the boarding pass checkpoint. Two gunshots rang out and "everyone hit the floor," he told The Times-Picayune, a New Orleans newspaper. Farah Stockman, a journalist for the Boston Globe who was in the airport at the time, tweeted: "Just witnessed [the] craziest thing." "People had heard gunshots. Everyone was hiding behind chairs and in doorways. Make our way to exit. Body was lying in a pool of blood." Authorities said the area where the attack took place would be closed off until Saturday but confirmed that rest of the airport remained open.

Summary: US security staff shot a knife-wielding man three times at New Orleans international airport after he tried to storm a checkpoint, officials say.

The child, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was taken into foster care in Gloucestershire while on a supervised visit with its father. The parents should have been given 14 days notice, and "serious errors" were made by the local authority, a family court ruled. Gloucestershire County Council has apologised and said it had now updated its policies. Judge Stephen Wildblood, in the family court in Gloucester, found the authority's actions were unlawful and had breached the family's human rights. He said the authority did not pay sufficient regard to a care plan and a court's care order, it failed to comply with regulations, and no legal advice was sought before the child was taken into care last month. The mother, who is in her early 20s, told the BBC it had been "incredibly traumatic and distressing" and that she hoped no other family had to suffer in the way that she and her child did In a statement the council said it apologised "unreservedly". "In our attempts to safeguard the welfare of this child, members of our children's social care team breached the terms of a previous court order. "We also apologise to the child and the parents for our actions in this case and for any distress caused. "This should never have happened and we have updated our policies and put in place safeguards, including ensuring that the assistant director or other senior officer will have oversight of all cases where action to remove children, who are subject to care orders, are being considered." The child, who is aged under two years old, has since been returned to its mother.

Summary: A baby was removed from its vulnerable mother unlawfully, a judge has ruled.


Kuba Oles was travelling at a minimum of 80mph (129km/h) when he hit Georgie Ann Evans' car in Dudley on 27 October. Oles, 25, who had sped down Priory Road, only suffered minor leg injuries, West Midlands Police said. Oles, from Beaconview Road, West Bromwich, admitted causing death by dangerous driving when he appeared at Wolverhampton Crown Court. He was also disqualified from driving for 14 years. Read more news for Birmingham and the Black Country PC Alan Wood, who headed the police investigation, said: "His driving on this day was extraordinarily dangerous and inevitably put other road users in peril. "During police interviews he attempted to blame Georgie for being an [inexperienced] driver and pulling out too slowly. "That was proved in court to be completely false and Oles was described as a dangerous person who posed a significant risk of causing the public harm." Oles was also sentenced to nine months in prison, to run concurrently, for another dangerous driving offence which he also admitted. Ms Evans's family said in a statement: "We give our thanks to the justice system for handing down the sentence they were able to. "Unfortunately we are paying the ultimate sentence - the loss of our daughter."

Summary: A man who killed an 18-year-old motorist in a crash that split her car in two has been jailed for six years.

Edinho is a retired footballer who played goalkeeper for Pele's old club, Santos, in the 1990s. He was first arrested in 2005 and has served a sentence for drug trafficking offences and links with a notorious drug dealer in the city of Santos. He admits he had a drug problem but denies the trafficking charges. The ruling was issued by a judge in the nearby coastal city of Praia Grande, in Sao Paulo state. Brazilian media have not been able to contact Edinho, whose real name is Edson Cholbi do Nascimento, but they say he is expected to appeal. Edinho, 43, works as a goalkeeping coach at Santos. Pele, or Edson Arantes do Nascimento, played all his professional career in Brazil for Santos. Playing for Brazil, he won the World Cup in 1958, 1962 and 1970 and was acclaimed as the greatest footballer of his generation. He retired in 1974, but made a comeback a year later for New York Cosmos. Edinho is Pele's third son from his first marriage. He was five when Pele was signed to play for Cosmos and the family moved to New York. When he returned to Brazil he decided to pursue a career in professional football - as a goalkeeper, much to his father's surprise. He was Santos' goalkeeper in 1995 when the team reached the Brazilian league final, losing the title to Botafogo. His detention and alleged involvement with drug gangs took most people in Brazil by surprise. Pele, now 73, went to visit his son several times in jail. "God willing, justice will be done. There is not a shred of evidence against my son," he said in 2006. Edinho said that his father was his idol. Four other people have also been convicted for many laundering, including a man accused of controlling much of the drug trafficking in the region - Ronaldo Duarte Barsotti, known as Naldinho.

Summary: The son of the Brazilian football legend Pele has been sentenced to 33 years in jail for laundering money raised from drug trafficking.


A report by NHS Shetland has suggested the move, in a bid to curb excessive drinking. About three-quarters of all alcohol consumed in Scotland is now bought from supermarkets or off licences. The proposal will be considered by the local licensing board after the council elections next year. Elizabeth Robinson, one of the report authors from NHS Shetland, told BBC Scotland: "People with alcohol problems have told us that they can go out the next morning and buy alcohol at 10am. "If there was just a bit of a longer break until some time in the afternoon that would really help them. "You can buy your 14 units a week for about Â£3 in Shetland. "People tend to pour larger drinks at home." However, shopkeeper Jordan Thomason said: "I think such a drastic increase in time runs the risk of people buying too much alcohol and then it could have the opposite effect of what they are trying to do."

Summary: A proposal that supermarkets and off licences should only be able to sell alcohol later in the day is to be considered in Shetland.


A team of archaeologists and volunteers has spent five years investigating the origins of 17 altars found at Maryport Roman fort in 1870. Now the final phase of the Maryport Roman Temples project is under way. Project director, professor Ian Haynes, said "so much depends" on the "last crucial season" of the dig. Built on the cliffs overlooking Solway Firth, it is believed the fort was founded in the First Century AD when the Roman army initially entered the region. The civilian settlement, which lies north-east of the fort, is believed to be the largest currently known along the Hadrian's Wall frontier. The altars are housed at the Senhouse Museum Trust in Maryport and form part of a significant collection of Roman sculpture and inscriptions at the museum. Believed to be the biggest single find of Roman inscriptions ever made in Britain, the altars provide evidence that three regiments from as far away as Spain and Germany were stationed at the fort. In 2012, the team found another complete altar at the site. Dated to the 2nd or 3rd Century AD, it was inscribed on behalf of Titus Attius Tutor, commander of the First Cohort of Baetasian, which came to Maryport from what is now the Netherlands. Prof Haynes said: "We believe that we have located the general area where the altars once stood; in 2015 we will close in on the part of the site where we think that they were originally erected. "By the end of the season we hope to have a detailed understanding of one of the most important Roman cult complexes ever to have been explored in Britain." The final excavation ends on 14 August.

Summary: The final part of a Cumbrian excavation to unearth the history of what is believed to be the biggest ever find of Roman altars in Britain has begun.

The 22-year-old joined the Shakers in August 2014, following a brief loan spell at the club, and went on to make 81 appearances in all competitions. Rose said: "[Moving to Mansfield] means playing games regularly, scoring a few goals, contributing to the team and hopefully a push towards promotion. "It's a good club and I'm delighted to be here. Hopefully it will be a successful time here." Rose scored five goals for the League One side last season, with his last league goals coming in the 4-3 victory over Blackpool in October. The fee may be enhanced dependent on goals scored, promotion and a future sell-on clause provision.

Summary: Mansfield have signed striker Danny Rose from Bury for an undisclosed fee.


The Brazilian's 25-yard left-foot shot swerved in off the underside of the bar to send bottom club Darmstadt to a seventh straight defeat. Bayern laboured for much of the game against spirited opponents. Peter Niemeyer should have equalised, heading straight at Manuel Neuer, who had parried Jerome Gondorf's free-kick. Carlo Ancelotti's side regained first place from Leipzig, who had moved three points clear by beating Hertha Berlin 2-0 on Saturday. Leipzig have supplanted Borussia Dortmund as Bayern's biggest Bundesliga title rivals this season, and Wednesday's meeting between the two side in Munich is keenly anticipated. There was a sense that Ancelotti and his players may have had one eye on that fixture, as they were far from at their best against Darmstadt. Bayern captain Philipp Lahm, who was listed on the team sheet, suffered a problem during the warm-up and was not risked - perhaps with Wednesday in mind - as Rafinha was drafted in to replace him. There was little fluency about Bayern's play, and Robert Lewandowski - who signed a contract extension lasting until 2021 on Tuesday - did not look like continuing the run that had brought him five goals in his previous three matches. The closest that the Poland striker came to a goal was a free-kick floated just over the bar towards the end of the first half, on a day when Bayern rarely threatened other than from set-pieces. There was a degree of encouragement in defeat for Darmstadt, who have struggled to recover from the departure of coach Dirk Schuster for Augsburg during the summer. Norbert Meier, Schuster's replacement, was sacked on 5 December, but interim coach Ramon Berndroth coaxed an energetic performance from his players, and they would have gained a valuable point but for Costa's unstoppable shot.
