Both of our mums got us into this sport and coached us for a long time, so carrying on that legacy is really nice and ijust hope im making my mum proud. Welcome to the programme. Weve had many tight finishes to the league before, but tonights situation is slightly unusual. Tottenham are at home to League ContendersManchester City. If the hosts win, they not only put a serious dent in citys race for the title, they also help their north london rivals arsenal in their bid to win the Premier League. Heres the table arsenal are currently top and need city to drop points to win the league, while spurs still have a slim chance of finishing fourth and Getting Champions League football next season. So that leaves tottenham fans in a difficult situation do they support their team as always, or do they root for tottenham to lose, meaning Manchester CityLeapfrog Arsenal with one game to go . 0ur Sports CorrespondentNatalie Pirks is outside Tottenham Hotspur stadium. Natalie, it does sound like a very strange situation to be in for tottenham fans. Are they torn at the moment . Theyre so torn. This is so hard for them actually, its not, because them actually, its not, because the majority ive spoken to are quite happy for spurs to lose. Some of them say they want to get smashed 40. Of them say they want to get smashed 4 0. Lets get the goal different up. Obviously that guy wants spurs to win. Thats one of them. Spurs do have some skin in that game. A win would take them within two points of aston villa. But like i said, and postecoglou reckons theyre not. Most would rather suffer to feet then see mikel arteta parading on then see mikel arteta parading on the streets with a trophy in north london. Lets have a listen to what of the fans have said. Basically, we cant qualify for the league. We might as well be happy with your above. And let city when the league. We with your above. And let city when the league the league.

This has actually been a happy Hunting Ground for pep guardiola. They havent won here since the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium was opened, but they did win in the fa cup injanuary. I think the thing with their city is that theyve hit perfect form in the perfect time. 21 matches unbeaten, only four of those withdrawals. You would say that city will win tonight were draws. Spurs� s win was the first in five. If youre going with form, city very much would be winners here tonight. But its a funny game where everything can happen. We could be in a bizarre situation where city score and you get fans of both sides cheering goals. This is the point of the season that we talk about squeaky bum time. We know that from sir Alex Ferguson. But there is one person, pep guardiola, who isnt quite familiar with the phrase.

City havent been beaten since early december, but defeat would leave arsenal one point ahead with one match to go, and even ahead with one match to go, and even a draw would be good for arsenal because theyre up on Goal Difference by three because city has been chipping at that. Victory for Manchester City would take them to points clear of arsenal, who have got west ham at home. Arsenal have got west ham at home. Arsenal have got everton at home.

Celtic manager Brendan Rogers has said hell be watching the Manchester City tottenham game and not the only game in the Scottish Premiership later. Thats despite the fact its outcome could hand the league title to celtic. If rangers lose to dundee at ibrox tonight then they will not be able to catch their old firm rivals. But they have a tough task ahead of them, rangers will be without 11 First Team Players for the penultimate league match of the season, including John Lundstram who was sent off in the loss to celtic at the weekend. Kheredine idessane is outside ibrox. Its not quite going to be the sendoff that the rangers a supporter were hoping for. The equation is simple. Victory is a must for rangers, some of the players playing here tonight at ibrox may not play for the club here again. Theres going to be a reboot in the summer, so lots of the players might be saying farewell. Certainly here at ibrox. Victory is essential because after the disappointing derby defeat to rivals celtic, rangers trail at the top of the table by six points with just six to play for. Unless rangers simply want to hand celtic the title as they prepare for potential title party in kilmarnock tomorrow, rangers simply must win to keep their slender hopes alive. Dundee have something to play for as well because they could still finish fifth in the league and with that comes european football next season. However, for that to happen, they have to win here that ibrox for the first time in 23 years. 2001, when the argentine scar was playing, he scored in that game. Its a last time the dark blues have won on this ground. Will rangers be able to restore a little bit of right after that breweries defeat . Its all on the line bruising.

The Premier LeagueChief ExecutiveRichard Masters and the English Football League boss rick parry had a difference of opinion over Parachute Payments today while appearing in front of a select committee on parliaments football governance bill.

Joe lynskey has been following the story and joins us now. Just explain whats been happening. Rick parry and Richard Masters were brought to discuss what the brief of this should be. What issues would fall under the scope in which one student . One notable issue they disagree on is Parachute Payments because its that something that the regulator wont control. Richard masters said that the Payment Clubs received when they are relegated is what he said was a competitive tool. But rick parry from the efl said intellectually incoherence with the words with the words, he feels it makes it harder for clubs to breakthrough for the top division. Weve seen ipswich town this season winning a second straight promotion.

Was cool and cloudy for many of us today with outbreaks of rain, quite heavy to the morning. North yorkshire under the front thing damp and murky through the afternoon. It was cool and cloudy for many of us today with outbreaks of rain quite heavy through the morning from a front gradually pushing northwards and eastwards North Yorkshire under the front, staying rather damp and murky through the afternoon. Some of the bluest of the skies, best of the sunshine, highest temperatures were across Northern Areas of scotland and not much is set to change as we head through the next few days. It will generally stay unsettled showers at times, also some sunny spells but sunniest across northern scotland, cooler and cloudier for eastern facing coasts with plenty of threat and haar moving in from the north sea and a southeasterly wind. Heres our area of low pressure just spinning around, sending this front out towards the north and the east. But its pretty much stationary as we head through tonight. It will still be given some rain at times, but a lot of that rain particularly sharp, perhaps across parts of Northern Ireland, but some sunny spells as well. Best of the sunshine for scotland, where we could get to highs of 23 or even 2a celsius later on through the afternoon on thursday. Or even 2a celsius later on through the afternoon. On thursday, the focus of the showers will tend to be across central areas of the uk. Again, its largely dry for scotland as scattering of showers across the south, but also some sunny spells. And of course the sunshine will help to lift the temperature highs. High teens, late 20s again in celsius, so just slightly above the seasonal average. As we head through the rest of the week, then our area of low pressure just gradually sinks further southwards. Towards the near continent, we see High Pressure build into the north. So, here, its likely to stay mostly dry as we head through the weekend. So, if we just take a look at scotland, Northern Ireland lots of dry weather and it will feel warm in the best of the sunshine, whereas further south, although temperatures remain above the average, there will be some showers.
