wet face than see the meteor shower. todayis wet face than see the meteor shower. today is a beautiful day, a day to enjoy the gorgeous autumnal colours. make the most of today's sunshine, because lurking out in the atlantic this area of cloud is the next area of low pressure bringing wet and windy weather. most of us will keep the sunshine all day. the risk of one or two showers in southern wales and south west england. the sunshine turning hazy in the west ahead of the next weather system. temperatures on the cool side in northern scotland. tonight we will see the cloud gather. so, yeah, not much chance of seeing the meteors. we have rain moving in. and south—westerly winds strengthening. the winds bringing milder air and temperatures up to m in plymouth. the weekend, this area of low

pressure dominates, bringing wet and windy weather. the south—westerly winds will bring some mild air. temperatures a lot higher over the weekend than this afternoon. in terms of the amount of rain tomorrow, we will get 15 to 30 millimetres in the south—west. not a huge amount, but it is across the south—west that has seen over the november average of rain fall and that rain could bring some localised flooding. turning windy in western scotland. up to 45mph. as the rain clears, we see a mixture of sunshine and showers. the temperatures higher than those of this afternoon. typically between 12 and 16 degrees. still hanging on to something cooler in the far north of scotland. the low pressure moves across scotland on sunday. the winds falling light in the centre of the low. more rain

the club say they will be appealing the decision. after a ao—year wait for formula 1 to return to las vegas, a loose drain cover delays the action on the new street circuit. they have qualified for next summer's euros, but england are chasing top seed status in germany so need three points against malta tonight. welcome to the programme. we start with the news that everton football club have been deducted ten points by the premier league for breaching the premier league's profit and sustainability rules. the punishment is the biggest sporting sanction in the competition's history. everton were 14th in table, but after this points deduction they now sit second from bottom, only above burnley on goal difference.

the club posted financial losses for the fifth successive year in march after reporting a near £50 million deficit last year. well, let's get some more on this, with hugh ferris, who's been following the story. this is a punishment handed down after a breach of the premier league's profitability and sustainability regulations, what have come to be known as financial fair play, or ffp, and follow the league referring the club to an independent commission in march. ffp states clubs are only allowed to lose a maximum of £105 million over a three—year period. essentially, the commission has agreed with the league and concluded a ten—point penalty should be

applied immediately. spurs were deducted 12 points back in the 19905 but spur5 were deducted 12 points back in the 19905 but that was eventually reduced to six. no team ever in premier league history has had this big a penalty. premier league history has had this big a penalty-— big a penalty. what else have everton had _ big a penalty. what else have everton had to _ big a penalty. what else have everton had to say? - everton have responded with a strongly worded statement saying they're shocked and disappointed by the ruling and that the punishment is wholly disproportionate and unjust. they will appeal and also monitor "with great interest the decisions made in any other cases concerning these rules"

with manchester city facing 115 ffp charges and chelsea also being investigated by both the fa and premier league. everton say they will consider those compared to what has happened to them today. can be said for sure is that as things stand, they face a very uncertain season both on and off the pitch. very uncertain season both on and off the pitch-— from domestic football to interntiona now, and england. they are already through

to next year's euros, but they still have something to play for. gareth southgate�*s side are aiming to finish as top seeds, and to do so they'll need to top the group. therefore, beating malta at wembley tonight will go a long way towards their chances of making that happen. we need to win games, not only to make sure that we are one of the top seeds next summer, but with england you always have to win matches. the bigger thing is rounder standard every dayjust on the training pitch, were we to be the top team and i think we have been consistently for quite awhile. there is never a day off if are a top player, you have to have those standards about your life all the time. northern ireland are also in action later. they take on finland, in group h. their hopes of making the tournament are over, though, with six losses in the group so far. an earlier kick—off in that one, at 5.00pm, as michael 0'neill�*s side look to salvage something from this low—scoring campaign for them. with these younger players, they

need positivity. he won players coming away and plan for the country looking forward to doing it, not with the reservation about doing it, about an insecurity, lack of confidence about doing it. probably the biggest challenge we have had in this campaign as you probably had to put too many young players in together at the one time, but myjob is to help their project them, the players are great. this is a brilliant group of players to work with, probably the easiest group of players i've had in my time as an international manager. some controversy to bring you from las vegas now, where f1's return to the city has been overshadowed by disruption to practice by a drain cover which caused damage to one of the cars. the cover for a small hole in the ground popped up and hit carlos sainz�*s ferrari, something the team called unacceptable. it caused first practice to be cancelled, with the second delayed to the point where no spectators watched on due to all fan areas being closed after 1.30am local time, as charles leclerc went fastest. the final round of the world rally championship is under way injapan

with britain's elvin evans hoping to end the season on a high. with rival belgian driver thierry newville crashing at the start of stage six, evans is on now course to finish runner up in the drivers' championship to his toyota team—mate kalla rovanpera. evans is currently leading by one minute and 49 seconds. victory on sunday would be his third of the season and the most he has achieved in one year. northampton saints play leicester tigers in the premiership this weekend and one player hoping to make an impression is saints flanker tom pearson. he lost his job in the summer after his former club, london irish, went into administration, one of four clubs to do so in the last 12 months. his family have run a farm in northamptonshire for the last 200 years and this week tom returned to help out. james burridge was there. tom pearson and his uncle robert, back together working on the family farm, their home for 200 years. itrailien
