There's celebrations for both Sheffield clubs this morning as their managers and players are April award winners.

Firstly, Sheffield Wednesday, who's head coach Carlos Carvalhal has been named the Championship's Manager of the Month with Steven Fletcher taking the PFA Player of the Month award.

The red and white side of the steel city is also celebrating as Sheffield United's boss Chris Wilder has been named League One Manager of the Month, with Blades striker Leon Clarke being awarded the Player of the Month award for April.

Bradford City lead their league one play-off semi-final against Fleetwood Town 1-0 following the first leg last night.

This celebratory commentary is well worth a listen - not often a commentator bursts into song:

The only person to lose money on the list is Philip Meeson the owner of Jet2, who is reportedly worth £296m.

His fortunes have seen a drop of £90m in the last year, which the paper says is "due to Brexit". Meeson, 69, is the 10th richest in Yorkshire. 

The most rich person in Yorkshire is Robert Miller, who has a bank account with £1.58bn in it.

The man in charge of policing the game, Superintendent Daniel Greenwood, said he wanted to specifically thank fans.

He said the match atmosphere was lively, but added, "the vast majority of people conducted themselves impeccably, allowing supporters to enjoy the football."

Supt Greenwood said he wished both sides the best of luck in the second leg on Sunday, but then revealed his allegience when he added, "I hope Bradford City can do West Yorkshire proud by reaching the final."

The Labour Party has held the Southey ward seat on Sheffield City Council following a by-election.

Mike Chaplin was the party's man on the ballot paper after the resignation of Leigh Bramall in March.

The Lib Dems finished second, with UKIP in third.

If you've ever found yourself wondering where the poshest loo in the country is, maybe you've got too much time on your hands!

That aside, I might just have the answer.

It's just north of Doncaster, at Brodsworth Hall, where they've just finished restoring a Victorian garden privy to its former glory.

Take a look at the loo which must surely be one of the most pristine powder rooms in the country:

South Yorkshire Police are looking for more volunteers to join and spend time in the cells talking to detainees.

The idea is to provide an independent pair of eyes to keep check on conditions and welfare of those being held.

Another sunny day - it'll be dry and fine, but a bit breezy.

Here's my full forecast:

The man in charge of the Piece Hall restoration in Halifax says the future of the building is "the future of the town."

The works are due to be completed by August, after a number of delays. 

Robin Tuddenham from Calderdale Council says it's been a catalyst for bringing "money, focus and investment to Halifax." 

He says at Christmas nowhere else in the north will be able to compete with it:

He owns a fair chunk of North Yorkshire in the shape of the 36,000-acre Gunnerside Estate, which is one of the largest sporting estates in the country.

I was in Doncaster for last night's count and spoke to the victorious Ros Jones after she secured another four years as Doncaster mayor.

Here's what she told me: 

As we know, Labour's candidate in the Doncaster mayoral election took the post for another four years, 

Here's the full resuilts table with Ros Jones at the head.

The columns are name of candidate, party, total number of first preference ballots recieved and percentage share of vote:

Ros Jones Labour 32,631 50.9

George Jabbour Conservative 13,575 21.2

Brian Whitmore UKIP7,764 12.1

Eddie Todd Independent 5,344 8.3

Chris Whitwood Yorkshire Party3,235 5

Steve Williams Independent 1,531 2.4

Second preference votes are only used to elect the mayor if no single candidate receives more than 50% of first preferences in the first round.  

The big news first thing on Friday is that Labour's Ros Jones is Doncaster's mayor again.

She secured 32,631 50.9% of all the first preference votes cast in the borough.

That means she is re-elected as the mayor.

More on this result and reaction to follow.

Welcome to Friday!

We'll be bringing you the latest news, sport, travel and weather updates from across North, South and West Yorkshire through the day.

We'll be getting results for the Doncaster and North Yorkshire County Council local elections later today.

North Yorkshire begin counting this morning while Doncaster will commence counting after lunch.

'Why the delay in Doncaster?' I hear you ask.

That's because they have been counting overnight for their directly-elected mayor.

And there is more on that in a moment.
