north—west of the uk where the winds will strengthen and for a time in northern scotland, gusts 60, 70 mph and maybe a touch stronger than at briefly as an area of low pressure passes to the north of the uk. lots of isobars on the charts. they will be a blustery start to sunday and those winds will only slowly ease as the day wears on. we will see some showers in the north and many places on sunday should be brighter, much better chance of seeing some sunshine. while it will feel cooler, there temperatures still in double digits, ten to 13 degrees. a milder weekend on the way. this hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm jane dougall. the row over racism claims by rafiq intensifies as two more yorkshire board membersjoin the chairman in stepping down. it's after the ecb said the club had caused "serious damage to the reputation of the game". a huge challenge for antonio conte at his new club. tottenham may have won in europe, but there's a lot of work to do to get them out of ninth place in the league. and can england women repeat their crushing defeat of new zealand? they play them again this weekend, with a new captain at the helm. while the men have their opener against tonga at twickenham. hello and welcome to sportsday. they're falling like wickets, there's been a raft of resignations at yorkshire county cricket club today and there will be more. it follows the club being stripped of hosting international and major fixtures by the ecb who said yorkshire's handling of the racism issues raised by azeem rafiq had been wholly unacceptable. lord kamlesh patel of bradford has replaced roger hutton who stepped down earlier today with an unreserved appology to rafiq, along with two other board members. but is it too little too late? our sports news editor dan roan is outside headingly for us. dan, the club still has many questions to answer, but how significant are these resignations? well, hugely significant. certainly in the case _ well, hugely significant. certainly in the case of _ well, hugely significant. certainly in the case of roger _ well, hugely significant. certainly in the case of roger hutton, - well, hugely significant. certainly in the case of roger hutton, thel in the case of roger hutton, the chairman of course. he has presided over the handling of this crisis. of course, it was on his watch that the club took the decision to take no action against any member of staff or player or executive, despite the fact that azeem rafiq had been found to have suffered racial harassment and bullying, after he claimed that there was institutional racism here. that sparked an outcry was not intensified this week and there's been huge political pressure building. as you said, there has been sponsors deserting the club. they have lost the right to stage international matches. it's no surprise that he decided to step down. the board were preparing to —— some of the board were preparing to put in their resignations. came i started the interview by asking him what his message was to receive —— to azeem rafiq. i'm sorry that he didn't have his allegations investigated back in 2018~ _ allegations investigated back in 2018. i'm sorry that ultimately the club hasn't — 2018. i'm sorry that ultimately the club hasn't shown the right contrition in relation to the findings _ contrition in relation to the findings and has an phantom way to -- and_ findings and has an phantom way to —— and haven't found a way to move forward _ —— and haven't found a way to move forward you — —— and haven't found a way to move forward. you have to divide... the club _ forward. you have to divide... the club can_ forward. you have to divide... the club can only — forward. you have to divide... the club can only take action against its current— club can only take action against its current employees. many of the allegations against people who are no longer— allegations against people who are no longer employees of the club, and in relation _ no longer employees of the club, and in relation to those allegations, the club — in relation to those allegations, the club can do nothing. is in relation to those allegations, the club can do nothing.- in relation to those allegations, the club can do nothing. is the very existence of _ the club can do nothing. is the very existence of this _ the club can do nothing. is the very existence of this club _ the club can do nothing. is the very existence of this club and _ the club can do nothing. is the very existence of this club and threat, . existence of this club and threat, do you think?

i think the manager would be gone with another embarrassment to the scale of the liverpool game. he said it was his darkest day at manchester united. it was my darkest day as a manchester united fan. to be honest, ever since then, ever since manchester city one, i've always been scared of derbies. weirdly enough, i've probably got no basis to be confident but there is a bit of confidence in me going into this win and i think it's something to do withjust how bad win and i think it's something to do with just how bad manchester city was last weekend. they were terrible in that. everyone's talking about us but crystal palace aren't that good a team and they were terrible. do ou a team and they were terrible. do you think that manchester city has got what it takes to shutting down?

"it's a huge challenge and we need to work a lot". the words of new tottenham manager antonio conte, who presided over his first match for the club last night. it was a 3—2 win in the europa conference league over vitesse arnum, but conte didn't seem to be impressed with his new teams' performance as patrick geary reports. welcome to tottenham hotspur, antonio conte, packaged into 90 minutes over a dramatic 3—2 victory is all that is good the bad and occasionally mad about the club he has justjoined. this occasionally mad about the club he hasjustjoined-_ hasjust joined. this is a big challenge- _ hasjust joined. this is a big challenge. a _ hasjust joined. this is a big challenge. a big _ hasjust joined. this is a big challenge. a big challenge i hasjust joined. this is a big i challenge. a big challenge and i know very well that this club is not winning for many years. in i think to be the winner didn't happen after one, two, three days. one month or two months, i think you must have vision. this club had great vision outside of the pitch. now, i think we are going to start to have a vision also on the pitch. that is where antonio _ vision also on the pitch. that is where antonio conte _ vision also on the pitch. that is where antonio conte comes i vision also on the pitch. that is where antonio conte comes in. practically every where he has been, he has brought on field success but he has brought on field success but he believes it takes sweat to produce sober. his players must be super fit and capable of executing... i super fit and capable of executing. . ._ super fit and capable of executing... super fit and capable of executin: . .. ., , , executing... i have seen these few da s that executing... i have seen these few days that we _ executing... i have seen these few days that we need _ executing... i have seen these few days that we need to _ executing... i have seen these few days that we need to work. - executing... i have seen these few days that we need to work. we i executing... i have seen these few. days that we need to work. we need to work a lot and i think that the club has to work to improve physical condition to go into football, to have morale on the pitch and to be not so emotionally in the game, taking the capacity over to suffer. the workers are began. antonio conte was an hour late to this conference for a video analysis session. i think in this moment, it's not fair to tell everyone to do this, we want to tell everyone to do this, we want to reach this. i think at the moment, we all need to be strong stop we need to start to work together and to think that we need together and to think that we need to improve and there is a lot of space for improvement. that improvement— space for improvement. that improvement will _ space for improvement. that improvement will take i space for improvement. that improvement will take time, he said and it will take work. it's fair to assume it might also take many. life with antonio conte will be demanding but it probably won't be boring. let's take a look at some of the othe sports news stories making the headlines. barcelona are expected to announce former player xavi as their replacement for ronald koeman, who was sacked last month. xavi's current side, qatari club al sadd, say the spanish club have paid his release clause. british number one cameron norrie can no longer qualify for the end of season atp tour finals. poland's hubert hurkacz secured the eighth and final qualifying spot by reaching the semi finals of the paris masters. norrie will go to the event in turin as one of two alternates. championship leader max. and was third. and bermuda's olympic champion flora duffy beat great britain's 0lympic silver medallist georgia taylor—brown at the second meeting of the world triathlon championship series in abu dhabi. seven british women finshed in the top 12 with sophie coldwell completing the podium. it's going to be one of the biggest days in the club's history. afc sudbury, from the eighth tier of english football, have won five matches to reach the first round of the fa cup for the first time in 21 years. they host league two colchester in a local derby and it's live on bbc 2 later. 0ur reporter tom williams is with glen murray for all the build up. this small suffolk club doesn't know what's hit it. a stadium here positively transformed in recent days with ten kilometres of cable going down. they brought in by new floodlights and there are 22 cameras filming it in the last round when they beat... tonight, it's getting they beat... tonight, it's getting the full match of the day treatment. was this your worst nightmare as a former professional coming to grounds like these?— former professional coming to grounds like these?

it doesn't matter what i think. they need to perform, so the fact thatjohnny is playing, i assume that andy farrell sees him as his number one number ten and a couple years out from the world cup, why not?
