Blueprint for the future. Well, sort of. They say many will be made available for a new man and they will scour the globe to make sure they get the right candidates. For now, malky mackay, a man with a controversial past, takes the reins. The big question is, action in the scottish premiership, rangers winning 3 0 at stjohnstone to stay in touch with the leaders, carlos penny getting two, his second after saintjohnstone had a man sent off. Rangers moved to within three points of celtic and aberdeen. For all the drama of the International Break it seems a premier league is back with many storylines that we have come to love, we can already give you a miracle recovery from injury, a warof give you a miracle recovery from injury, a war of words between managers and one of the most anticipated fixtures in any season, liverpool playing manchester united. It will start with help pochettino responded to the claim this week from the man city bars that his spurs side should be known as the harry kane team. Such is the reliance he feels they have on the striker. The two, who also balanced rival clubs in barcelona, dont see eye to eye. I think the situation, thatis eye to eye. I think the situation, that is in effect, does not affect me. The reality was it is very disrespectful for many people. It is difficult to understand because he was part of the big success in barcelona. He was with lionel messi at his best. I would never say it was the lionel messi team. He was supposed to be out for two months but could Sergio Aguero be backjust two weeks after breaking his red . The Manchester City striker, injured in amsterdam, back in full training for a match against stoke tomorrow although Pep Guardiola says he is not 100 , city are top of the league on goal difference. By the half a play stoke, man united could be above them, just a draw in the match of the weekend at liverpool would do that although they will have to ove 1120 m e that although they will have to overcome a hostel and field crowd. Jose mourinho, that is a challenge they are to accept. We go to play against a big team with a big tradition. In an amazing stadium with great tradition, we know that the fans have huge animosity against manchester united. Historically. But this is what we want. We are very happy to have one more opportunity in our careers to play in this beautiful conditions, beautiful to play at anfield. Beautiful. In the chubbyjejuni, play at anfield. Beautiful. In the chubby jejuni, cardiff, suffering only their second defeat of the season, beaten by birmingham. Che adams getting the only goal in the first half to take his side out of the bottom three.

In the order of the first victory of the season in rugby unions challenge cup has gone to ulster, coming from behind to beat wasps in belfast, 19 9 to inflict more misery on the Premiership Team that has blighted by poor form and Premiership Team that has blighted by poorform and injuries. The champions cup does not do opening ceremonies but if they did, belfast on friday night would not be a bad place. We began with an ulster rower and wasps score, courtesy of the booming boot of elliot daly. The wasps have been in the wars, or lease on sunday to prepare and dizzy Brendan Mackin did not make it to the break. By the wasps were ahead, Jimmy Gopperth kicking them to be good but the lead was just six points. Three went charles piutau, up points. Three went charles piutau, up went the locals. The wasps were suddenly weary, the red hot hands of ulster all the way to stuart mcclos key, ulster all the way to stuart mccloskey, the centre from bangor scoring. After the excitement was a time for calm, personified by christian leila fallow, his penalties made this say. Stand up for the ulsterman, when the song. Watch out for the ulsterman is the message. Two games in the challenge cup of cardiff blues registering a bonus point win over lille, while the other match involving a british side was a draw, sale and toulouse, 20 apiece.

At the end of the day he is level with Marcus Fraser on 13 under par after a round of 65, including four birdies and that eagle at the ninth hole. That is all from sportsday. Thank you for joining us. Good night. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are henry zeffman, whos a political teporter at the times, and katie martin from the Financial Times. Reporter. Nice to have on a friday night. Tomorrows front pages. Tomorrows Financial Times cover photo is the chancellor Philip Hammond, who has apologised after calling the eu the enemy when talking about brexit negotations in a television interview. The express warns of danger to life as storm ophelia heads in from the atlantic, bringing winds of up to 100mph. The daily mail dishes up a lobster plot on its front page the newspaper says Philip Hammond and former chancellor George Osborne conspired to stop brexit over a fancy seafood lunch. The daily mirror leads on a couple jailed after faking sickness to try to claim thousands of pounds of holiday compensation. The Daily Telegraph has the story of another alleged victim of harvey weinstein. This time from actress, alice evans. The i says some gps could ban patients who diagnose themselves with dr google by going online before appointments. Is this the luckiest penguin chick in antarctica . The guardian tells the story of the colony where all but two of the young have been wiped out by famine. Luck is a relative thing sometimes. Lets look at the Daily Telegraph, a couple of stories about brexit. You will know this from friday night. Phillip hammond ina from friday night. Phillip hammond in a bizarre outburst at the enemy eu. How did this come about . Philip hammond calling the eu 27 the enemies . It has not been a good week for the chancellor, in the cross hairs of the brexiteers. He is not laughing tonight. In the cross hairs of the brexiteers in his own party all week. Accusing him of being miserable about brexit. They said he was refusing to plan for and no deal brexit and he had back in an article in the times which wind them up further and it culminated in the bizarre episode in washington today where he said the eu was the enemy, as if he was trying to appeal to the more brexit elements of his party but then walked back on it within 30 minutes so strange end a bad week. He had the word enemy put in his mouth by the interviewer, i think . Possibly. If you take the word enemy out of that quote, the headline in the telegraph sums this up, it was a bizarre outburst. Their main perceived problem with Philip Hammond for a lot of people early on was you we re hammond for a lot of people early on was you were supposed to be boring, maybe this is his effort to prove he is not. As henry said, he walked into a set of interviews, he was at the imf meetings in the united states, sounding conciliatory, talking about howl states, sounding conciliatory, talking about how i know people have got it in for me but we are trying to work in the same direction, 20 minutes later he gets drawn into calling the rest of the eu the enemy and then walks back again by thinking he needs a nice lie down. Is this stress . He is trying to give a lot of people happy. And it is impossible. It is very easy to misspeak. I am impossible. It is very easy to misspeak. Iam not impossible. It is very easy to misspeak. I am not saying he did. Impossible. It is very easy to misspeak. Iam not saying he did. It is easy to use the wrong word, particularly when doing a succession of interviews about complex stuff . It is but i am not sure how sympathetic lots of conservative mps will be. One of the things about Philip Hammond but as mps say is he is not particularly friendly to collea g u es is not particularly friendly to colleagues when they are in trouble. One of the consequences is when he is in trouble, as he was in the last budget and he is now, there are not many colleagues willing to look out for him and say, we understand that this is a hard job. He is pretty careful with what he says, that is why it seems so peculiar. Hence the boring thing. You dont mind somebody being boring well, i wouldnt. The daily mail. The lobster plot. Philip hammond again. Getting more exciting by the headline apparently conspiring over seafood with George Osborne . Keen readers of the daily mail will be aware that it doesnt like Philip Hammond much, it has really went for him this week, an editorial saying he was miserable and effectively wrecking brexit. He is a saboteur of the process, the words used by nigel lawson, reported by the delhi bowl. Nonetheless, they have had it in for him this week and today they say that he has had this dinner with George Osborne and they are putting their Heads Together talking about brexit, trying to label this as the lobster plot, which reminds me of the agreement between tony blair and gordon brown . I am not sure this epithet will stick for this particular meeting. Hold on, leading doris says it sounds fishy . And she isa doris says it sounds fishy . And she is a bestselling author 19. I could not possibly comment on how journalists get ideas this encapsulates the split in the tory party, George Osborne was a conservative chancellor until last year. And he was pro remain. This is a chancellor having dinner with his predecessor, all must any other point in british history, that is a sensible thing for the chancellor to do but the fact that merely having better dinner with George Osborne, and the added element that he isa osborne, and the added element that he is a newspaper editor but the fa ct he is a newspaper editor but the fact that even having dinner with him, that this winds up conservative backbenchers shows how free bradl the party is. A lot of people who are pro brexit perhaps would be right to have suspicions . Philip hammond, he was four remaining, and he is in charge of number 11, he has to see through an enormously costly exercise that might end up with no deal and he has to save money . M you are on the hard brexit, in that camp, you might think there is something untoward. They mightjust be having a social get together, they might have been talking about how to navigate tricky situations in the cabinet, which they have both been through. I slightly bristle at the label saying this sounds fishy by me know that lobsters are crustaceans i am by me know that lobsters are crustaceans lam not by me know that lobsters are crustaceans i am not sure that even works cathy is a year tonight, she is like part of my brain in the gallery mr osborne, this quote, he said to have told friends he would not rest until the Prime Minister was chopped up in bags in my freezer repellent. It tells you about the relationship. Yes, the relationship was clearly very tested, and the comment about having him chopped up in a freezer, we understand that George Osborne was joking but if anybody else made that comment, would you see that in the same light . The comment from Nadine Dorries saying you can tell a lot about people by the friends they keep, if you apply that evenly across a range of keep, if you apply that evenly across a range of different people on the political spectrum, would that reflect well on everybody . Probably not. The Financial Times, what is happening with iran, with President Trump having done this review as part of his election pledge, we will look again at this nuclear deal. He says he is no longer prepared to certify, something the president has to do every few months. This is a step short of cancelling the deal, which is what he vowed to do at various junctions and it feels like he might end up, he is trying to do this at some point, the code from the eu says he doesnt have the power to do that but that is probably to come at another point. The american administration, under trump, getting tougher on iran and crucially, they almost have no allies on this. Extraordinarily busy filling, the joint statement from theresa may, emanuel macron and angela merkel, who certainly are not all best
