Walsall manager Darrell Clarke says he's been around long enough to understand why fans get frustrated, but he won't grumble about it.

Three successive defeats have seen them slip to 19th place in League Two and Clarke said "I get it, I understand it", but asked fans not to give the players a hard time.

It will be a dry night with some clear spells and lows of 4C (39F).

An appeal has raised £59,000 in just three weeks to pay for proton beam therapy for a Shropshire man with a brain tumour.

Because 46-year-old Nick Haves from Sheriffhales is over the age of 24, he isn't eligible to have the treatment for free on the NHS, so his family and friends have been raising the money to pay for it privately.

If the money wasn't raised by 21 October, his family said he would have needed to have conventional radiotherapy instead, adding doctors warned he could lose his eyesight as a result.

Proton beam therapy is designed to target a tumour more precisely, thereby doing less damage to surrounding tissue.

Mr Haves' family said treatment was due to start on 4 November and thanked people for their support.

All taxis and private hire vehicles in Coventry must be able to accept card payments after a policy change was approved by the city council.

While some already accepted card payments, they were not obliged to.

But at a meeting on Monday, the authority agreed to make cashless payments mandatory.

Tuk-tuks and pedicabs, which are set to be introduced in Coventry ahead of its 2021 City of Culture status, will also be obliged to accept card payments under the change.

A motorcyclist has died after a crash in Clifton-upon-Dunsmore near Rugby on Monday.

The rider was on Hillmorton Lane at about 14:30 and thought to have come off the bike close to the junction with the Oxford Canal, sending the bike travelling into the path of a car.

The man in his 30s suffered fatal injuries, said Warwickshire Police.

Officers are keen to speak to any witnesses.

Shrewsbury Town manager Sam Ricketts says he's not worried his team is the second-lowest scorer in League One.

Only struggling Bolton Wanderers have scored fewer than Shrewsbury's 10 goals in 12 games, but the club is 13th in the table, thanks partly to one of the meanest defences in the division.

Shrewsbury have failed to score in six of their matches so far, but Ricketts said "it's not as if we're not shooting at the target" and felt that with slightly better approach play, they will score more.

They are at home to Gillingham tonight - a side that hasn't won away all season.
