Now as tulsen was saying in the sport, it seems as though the plans for a european Super League are over following the withdrawal of several of The Clubs initially behind the plans. One of the biggest issues which caused outrage was the sidelining of supporters from the decision making process. And there have been calls for more Fan Ownership or involvement in the running of The Club as happens in germany. We sent our Europe CorrespondentKevin Connolly to one club to find out more. It might not look much like it but it is Match Day at the Bruce You dortmund stadium in lockdown, shortly before kick off. All is calm, before covid came along, things were different. Pelissier dortmund this is home to one of europes most passionate crowds, but fans dontjust have a voice on the terraces here, for less than 70 Euros each year, you could become a member with a voice in every big decision.

No one thinks that the idea of some kind of Super League has gone away forever, and there are plenty of people with questions for the Football Authorities at uefa and fifa, but here in germany, there is confidence that their model of Fan Ownership and control gives them a powerful voice in the future of their clubs and their game. Bruce you dortmund supporters, like supporters elsewhere, are not allowed to gather at the stadium for now, but it seems pretty clear they would never allow The Club to be sold to a foreign prince or a foreign oligarch.

While many people are turning to ancestry websites to find out more about their family history, for one frenchman, those answers came as a message in a bottle, which had been foating in the Atlantic Ocean for more than 100 years. Inside, was a letter Written On Board the titanic, the day before it sank in 1912. Courtney bembridge has the story. A simple letter written by 13 year old girl, undiscovered for more than 100 years. Translation i throw this bottle into the seal in the middle of the atlantic. We are due to arrive in new york in a few days. If anyone finds it, let the Lefebvre Family in lievin know. It is signed by mathilde lefebvre, and dated the 13th of april, 1912. But mathilde never made it to new york. The following day, disaster struck. She was killed along with her mother, three siblings and more than 1,500 others. The ship sunk in the Atlantic Ocean. The wreckage lies about 600 kilometres south of canadas newfoundland. For more than a century, the little bottle drifted in the ocean until it eventually washed up on a beach in the bay of fundy. Translation it was a canadian family who discovered this bottle while walking around. Intrigued by two small rolls inside, the family broke the bottle and found the letter. When the discover was reported in canadian media, it was the final piece of the puzzle Forjacques Lefebvre and his wife helena, who had been looking into his familys past. Translation one day | i found that five members of the Lefebvre Family had died at the same time in 1912, so i called my husband and told him that a catastrophe must have occurred around that time. I immediately thought about the titanic. Now he knows for sure, but hes yet to see the letter penned by his great aunt with his own eyes. Its still in the hands of researchers at the university of quebec. Jacques hopes one day it will be on display in a museum. Courtney bembridge, Bbc News.

I will see you injust a moment. Hello. After slightly cloudy conditions across england and wales on wednesday, the clear Blue Skies and strong sunshine experienced in scotland, northern ireland, akin to what we can see here from one of our weather watchers during the day, well, they will become a bit more abundant. But those Clear Skies by day also mean colder nights are back, and a widespread frosty start to the day, temperatures as low as 5 6 through some parts of eastern Scotland And Northeast england, very few immune to a frost. And thats because weve got High Pressure in charge. Its keeping those skies clear. High pressure generally means dry weather as well, stops the Rain Clouds from going up. And around the centre of it, which is right over us, there will be light winds. A little bit more breeze, most notable across the far south of england. And while most will see sunshine from dawn to dusk, they will be a bit more clout in Northern Scotland through thursday compared with wednesday, and the sunshine in central parts of scotland that little bit hazier. But with much more sunshine around on thursday, Pollen Levels are back up again high in most parts, limited a little bit around this Southeast Corner and through the English Channel because weve got more of a breeze here. That breeze, coming in from an east or northeasterly direction, will also limit the rise in temperatures here to between 10 13 celsius. But with lighter winds further north and west, because the ground is so dry at the moment, it means the air above it warms quite quickly and thats why we could get to around 16 17 celsius in some western areas through the afternoon. But what will follow, again, will be there skies for most away from Northern Scotland into thursday night, so another frost is likely. Notice how that area of High Pressure has barely changed. The lines on the chart, the isobars, where we see the windy conditions will be out to the south and the west, so more of a breeze potentially for northern ireland, but still that breeze blowing through the English ChannelThe Cloud in the far northeast of Scotland Mayjust produce the odd isolated shower, but for most, again, its another day of sunshine from dawn to dusk. And with each day being sunny, the ground warms up a bit more. Temperatures could reach 19 20 celsius, particularly across parts of north wales, northwest England And Southwest scotland. Still cooler with that onshore breeze, though, to East Anglia and the southeast. Now, if youre expecting any change into this weekend, theyll only be subtle ones. Dry, sunny sums it up for most, the nights still chilly with a risk of a frost. There will be a bit more cloud developing through saturday and sunday, and by sunday, temperatures dropping just a little bit. Bye for now.
