In a game that started celebrating the merelys longest serving store what, the headlines were snatched by one of its numerous styles. Especially at home as well, we want to make this a fortress, and weve got three winds again now. Hopefully we can continue on that. We had a bad game against liverpool, but other than that, i think weve been pretty good so far so hopefully we can continue this run. Its been different this week having a lot of media attention. It will be nice to finally put this to bed and concentrate on the game. Youve gone past ryan giggss record, has he beenin past ryan giggss record, has he been in touch . I got a message past ryan giggss record, has he been in touch . I got a message from him so is a nice touch from ryan to say congratulations. Meanwhile, brighton forward tomer hemed has been charged with violent conduct by the fa over an incident in yesterdays match against newcastle. Hemed, who scored the winner in the 1 0 victory, is alleged to have stamped on newcastle defender Deandre Yedlin in the 88th minute. He has until 6pm tomorrow evening to respond to the charge and faces a three match suspension if found guilty. The fa insist theyre confident that following last weeks sacking of england womens manager mark sampson. The right procedures are in place to prevent a similar issue arising now or in the future. Sampson was dismissed following evidence of inappropriate behaviour in a previous role. Heres our sports news correspondent richard conway. The fa say theyll now conduct a review into what they call historic processes, but a reminder that history to the fa in this instance means 2013, 2014 and 2015, thats how recent these events around mark sampson are known to have taken place. That investigation, that safeguarding inquiry, took place back then, but martin glenn the fas chief executive says he didnt become aware of the existence of the safeguarding case until october of 2015. And he didnt look into the exact details of it untiljust a couple of weeks ago. Nevertheless, the fa board expressing their confidence in martin glenn and chairman greg clarke. They say they are of the belief that a similar situation will not occur again now or in the future. So it would appear, as far as the fa board are concerned, case closed, move on, nothing more to see, but not yet. Perhaps not yet, Damien Collins the chair of the culture, media and sport committee, he wants to see fa officials before him and his panel of mps next month. They will come in for sustained scrutiny about who knew what and when. This matter is not overjust yet. The decision to overturn a ban on the home nations football teams wearing poppies expected from fifa in the coming weeks, has been described as common sense by the managers of two of the countries as well as the sports minister tracey crouch. Last year england, scotland, wales and Northern Ireland were all fined by fifa for their use of the poppy to commemorate Armistice Day deeming it to be a political symbol. Prince william and Prime Minister theresa may was among those to criticise the decision. But were expecting the laws to be changed in time for novembers International Break well Gordon Strachan and michael 0neill were the two managers to back the plans to change the rules on poppies. Both named squads today for their crucial world cup qualifying matches next week. Scotland have recalled leeds captain liam cooper. We are always looking for people on the top of their form, or bringing in someone new. We have shown we can do that before. But this time, we think thats the best squad that we can get. There were good players left out, but i think thats the best squad we can get for the two games coming up. And that squad, and these players, have shown that they can deal with big games. And thats why theyve been picked again. Im looking forward to catching up with them. Gareth mcauley is back in the Northern Ireland squad for next months qualifiers against germany and norway. The west brom defender has not featured in the squad since he limped off against azerbaijan back in june. There are also first time call ups for millwall midfielder George Saville and kilmarnock midfielderjordan jones. Week three of the nfl season will end later tonight and rarely has there been such scrutiny on the sport. The players of the Dallas Cowboys and Arizona Cardinals will be the final two squads to decide how to respond to the us national anthem. After the row between the nfl and president trump. The latter has refused to back down following the scenes at the weekend. Claiming any protests have nothing to do with race. While another American Sports star lebron james, a critic of the president , was impressed with what he saw. The nfl, the coaches, the players, the owners, the fans, everyone who has anything or any association with the nfl yesterday was unbelievable. Solidarity and there was no divide. This is amazing. What sports can do for everyone. No matter the shape or size or race or ethnicity or religion or whatever, people find teams and players, and colours, because of sport. And theyjust gravitate towards that and make them so gravitate towards that and make them so happy. And it brings people together like none other. We are not going to let, im not going to look, while i have this platform, one individual, no matter the power, no matter the impact he should have all she should have. Ever use sport as a platform to divide us. Johanna kontas recent run of bad form has continued in china. Where shes gone out of the wuhan 0pen at the first attempt. The british number one lost to australian Ashleigh Barty in the second round. Konta lost the first set to love, before recovering to take the second and then served for the match in the decider, before losing out in the tie break. British bobsleigh pilot mica mcneill has hit her £30,000 target as she attempts to give herself a chance of qualifying for the winter olympics. Mcneill launched an Online Campaign in the wake of the decision by the british bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation to cut her funding. More than 500 people donated as she reached her goal in under a week. That first, you are so shocked and frustrated, then people got behind us frustrated, then people got behind us and we thought, if you asked us a week ago, wed think how is this going to pan out . But six days into this campaign and to have that many people get behind you, its really positive. There have been so many crowdfunding campaigns with things that a lot of people have contributed to, do you get this and the British Public will be as your financial backers, expecting a lot from you all can you handle that pressure . No, i think from you all can you handle that pressure . No, ithink we from you all can you handle that pressure . No, i think we can handle the pressure. I said earlier, we are powered by the people now. And for people to believe that and supporters and all the nice messages weve had and all those donations, people believed in us about lifts you upa people believed in us about lifts you up a little bit. That gives you what you need to push that little bit harder and work more, and make eve ryo ne bit harder and work more, and make everyone proud. Thats all from sportsday. Coming up in a moment, the papers. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are baroness ros altmann and the journalist and author mihir bose. Tomorrows front pages, starting with. The ft leads with Angela Merkels admission that she was responsible for the political polarisation in yesterdays german elections, that led to heavy losses for her party. The i goes with labours proposals to nationalise a number of key industries, including royal mail and the and the railways. The metro also puts labours proposals to scrap private financing for hospitals and schools on its front page. But the daily mail brands labour the new nasty party over claims anti semitic comments were made at the partys conference in brighton. While millions of people are being warned not to suddenly stop taking aspirin according to the express. The paper says going cold turkey increases the risk of having a heart attack or stroke. And finally the guardian features north koreas accusations that donald trump has declared war on his country and their threat to shoot down us planes. Ros, lets start with the eye, labours plan for nationalisation. Projects will all be returned for the state, you must be loving this isa the state, you must be loving this is a former conservative minister of states is petrifying. Is a former conservative minister of states is petrifying. It really is. You wonder with brexit going on and overseas i nvesto is you wonder with brexit going on and overseas investors in bit nervous, how much Political Risk map conte can they take . I think there will be a potential backlash. Itll be very damaging for our economy if people seriously think that these kinds of policies are going to be introduced in britain. Notjust the fact policies are going to be introduced in britain. Not just the fact that we are nationalising lots of industries that have currently been privatised and some of them have been successful, maybe some less so, but we know that in the past, the Nationalised Industries were not working well. But the idea you are just going to confiscate pfi assets, rather than the negotiate terms, labour is saying we are just going to ta ke labour is saying we are just going to take them back into public ownership. It was labour that did the deals. But the fact is, the Energy Sector is broken for a lot of people. Water charges are high, railways, southern rail we dont even railways, southern rail we dont eve n wa nt railways, southern rail we dont even want to go down there. Pfi, we know it has cost the taxpayer a lot of money. A lot of these proposals, eve ryo ne of money. A lot of these proposals, everyone here is what laws is saying, but a lot of these proposals resonate with people. And i think labour, after what did exactly, it didnt win but the unexpected election showing, feels the tide is turning. 79 when mrs thatcher came, that old post war thing, the government was good, it turned. If you talk to some of the younger people, they do feel income levels, there is a huge disparity in people earn, disparity in wealth. This may be the time, i dont know, dummett labour may have got it wrong but this may be the mood. If there was ever a time. Given the unexpected. This is the mood to see to it. To do it in the way labour
