Iwelumo's hat-trick helped Burnley earn Lancashire bragging rights
Chris Iwelumo scored a hat-trick as Burnley produced a stunning late fightback to defeat 10-man Preston.

Iwelumo made it 1-0 with a header but Preston hit back through crisp finishes from Adam Barton and Keith Treacy.

Jon Parkin made it 3-1 to the visitors but the match turned after the sending off of Preston's Billy Jones.

Iwelumo reduced the arrears with a fine volley after 84 minutes and equalised with a header, before Jay Rodriguez nodded in a 90th-minute winner.

It was an astonishing turnaround from Burnley but a nightmare for Preston manager Darren Ferguson, whose team appeared to have victory in the bag before Jones received a second yellow card for time-wasting.

Laws realistic despite last-gasp winner

Ferguson was watched by his father Sir Alex, whose Manchester United team had given up 3-1 lead to Everton in their 3-3 draw earlier in the day.

Preston started the brighter with Keith Treacy drawing a fine save from Burnley goalkeeper Brian Jensen and Daniel Fox blocking an effort from Josh King.

But Burnley took the lead against the run of play when former Preston winger Ross Wallace crossed from the left for Iwelumo to head home.

Preston drew level when a long ball caused havoc in the Burnley defence, allowing Barton a clear run on goal to score.

Treacy gave North End the lead with a fine goal, latching on to a loose ball and drilling a fierce low shot in off the inside of the post.

Treacy turned provider for the third goal after 70 minutes as his left-footed cross was brilliantly converted by Parkin.

Ferguson fumes at 'disgraceful' decision

The dismissal of Jones with 12 minutes remaining seemed to instil Burnley with belief, while Preston simply fell to pieces.

Iwelumo made it 3-2 with a fine low volley from the edge of the area and then produced a clever flicked header to draw the hosts level.

The onslaught continued, and in the last minute of normal time, unmarked substitute Rodriguez headed home to complete a remarkable comeback.

Adam (right) shows support for youth coach Gary Parkinson after scoringGoals from Charlie Adam and DJ Campbell earned Blackpool an away victory over a disappointing Newcastle.

Adam coolly converted from the penalty spot after Luke Varney was needlessly cut down in the box by Alan Smith.

Newcastle, who hit the post through Mike Williamson in the first half, improved after the break with Andy Carroll going close late on.

But Campbell - a deadline day signing after a loan spell last season - finished from 20 yards to seal the win.

The teams went into the match with similar records: four points apiece, one convincing win and a lesson learnt at the hands of one of the "big four".

But it was Newcastle who started as strong favourites, with home advantage, a settled team and one of the country's in-form strikers in Carroll.

However, the fact that Newcastle were using the same starting 11 as in their previous Premier League games did not stop them from displaying a worrying lack of understanding at times.

By way of contrast, Blackpool, who have used 19 players this campaign, settled instantly and almost took the lead inside a minute through the unmarked Campbell, who was off target with an overhead effort.

Proud Holloway 'astonished' by performance

On the rare occasions the ball did come their way, Newcastle forwards Kevin Nolan and Carroll appeared to have the power and nous to concern the away defence.

And Blackpool's pressing almost led to a goal on 12 minutes when Joey Barton was woefully careless with a crossfield ball. Running on to the ball, Adam advanced into Newcastle's half and slid a perfectly weighted ball through for Campbell. However, the striker, so prolific with 11 goals from 18 appearances last season, lacked conviction and Harper was able to make a smart save before pouncing on the rebound ahead of Brett Ormerod.

While the route through the centre was closed off, Newcastle did at least sporadically threaten down the flanks with Wayne Routledge appearing to have the beating of left-back Stephen Crainey.

The former Spurs and Aston Villa winger sent in one cross that Nolan was inches away from connecting with before being hauled down in full flight by David Vaughan - the resultant free-kick headed against the post by Williamson.

While Newcastle enjoyed the greater possession in the first half to no real effect, Blackpool remained dangerous on the break and thought they had taken the lead on the half hour only for Campbell's low strike to be ruled out for offside.

But from their next break they did silence the Toon faithful. Running at the defence, Campbell fed Varney on the left.

In truth, there appeared little danger as the forward stumbled his way into the box, but Smith was rash with a challenge, referee Lee Mason pointed to the spot and Adam did the rest, the goal marked with a show of support for youth coach Gary Parkinson - in hospital following a stroke on Friday.

Moments later the half-time whistle was met with boos - Newcastle had to improve and although they did luck was to remain against them.

With Blackpool increasingly happy to sit back and rely on ever-more infrequent breaks there was plenty of time on the ball for Barton in midfield.

And he almost forced an equaliser on the hour, taking advantage of a lucky deflection to burst into the box only for Matt Gilks to make a superb plunging save to his left.

Barton also set up a chance for Williamson, who came painfully close to converting a cross at the far post, while Carroll could also have done better when through to the left of the goal, Gilks proving his worth once more.

Hughton frustrated by Newcastle defeat

Manager Chris Hughton introduced Hatem Ben Arfa for his debut as Newcastle continued to press, Jose Enrique cutting in well from the left only to fire wastefully high and wide with his right foot.

Ian Holloway brought on Keith Southern late on to bolster the defence, yet still Newcastle pressed, Nolan seeing a shot blocked, with Routledge's follow up cleared off the line.

But the gilt-edged chance to level appeared to finally arrive on 87 minutes only for Gilks to make the best of a series of superb saves, using his feet to deny Carroll from close range.

And there was an air of inevitability as Blackpool launched a late counter, Adam playing in Campbell who superbly fired home left footed from 20 yards to move Blackpool up to fourth place in the table.

Miller added to his midweek Scotland goal with the winner at New Douglas Park

Kenny Miller's seventh goal of the season gave Rangers a last-minute win over a battling Hamilton Accies side.

Nikica Jelavic headed home his first Rangers goal early on and the visitors maintained their lead until the break.

Accies had competed well in the opening period and were rewarded for their efforts when Madjid Bougherra's own goal levelled matters.

But substitute Miller's lob restored the champions' lead and their 100% Scottish Premier League record.

Watched by Manchester United scout Martin Ferguson, the match was Rangers' last before beginning their Champions League campaign at Old Trafford on Tuesday, while Hamilton were looking to build on their recent win over Inverness.

Referee Alan Muir ignored early penalty claims from the home crowd after Nigel Hasselbaink was squeezed out by David Weir and Sasa Papac just inside the area.

Jelavic was making his full debut for the Ibrox side and, within six minutes, the Croatian had found the net after bulleting Kyle Lafferty's teasing cross into the net.

Hamilton rallied and came close to an equaliser twice in quick succession.

First, Marco Paixao's curling shot was tipped over by Allan McGregor and the goalkeeper then held a deflected shot by Jon Routledge.

Marco Paixao continued to cause Rangers problems and flashed an effort wide after cutting in from the left.

Jelavic turned provider with a low cross across the Accies box, but strike partner James Beattie could not get the vital touch.

A series of lofted balls into the Rangers box ended with Simon Mensing flicking a backwards header towards goal, but McGregor was on hand to claim.

Jelavic notched his first Rangers goal in the first half

Jelavic shot wide via a deflection on the half-hour mark shortly before being caught late by Jim Goodwin, resulting in a booking for the Hamilton debutant.

Cerny palmed an awkward deflected shot by Jelavic into the path of Beattie, but the Englishman could not turn his rebound into the net.

Kirk Broadfoot limped off shortly before the break after failing to recover from an earlier knock and Ricky Foster made his first Rangers appearance after joining on loan from Aberdeen.

The versatile defender was caught cold when his tame headed clearance let Hasselbaink in on goal and McGregor was required to make a last-ditch save to deny the former PSV Eindhoven player.

Hamilton got themselves level 11 minutes after the break when Bougherra turned Marco Paixao's cross into his own net.

Steven Naismith's powerful drive was beaten out by Cerny as Rangers tried to regain the advantage.

Accies continued to pose a threat on the break and one such attack saw Flavio Paixao's curling shot deflect just wide of the target.

Top scorer Miller was introduced from the Rangers bench as Lafferty was withdrawn and the striker set up Jelavic with a neat lay-off, but Cerny saved well.

Steven Davis dragged a shot wide from distance as Rangers pressed for a late leveller.

But Miller did find the net after latching on to fellow substitute Lee McCulloch's intelligent through ball, despite Cerny getting a hand to the shot.

Czech Cerny frets about Scottish stalemate

The Czech goalkeeper Cerny fears for his national team lost to Scotland

Tomas Cerny says that if Scotland beat the Czech Republic in Prague next month he will end his country's chances of qualifying for UEFA EURO 2012.

Guardian Czech Hamilton was stunned when your country lost at home to Lithuania on Tuesday in the opening match of their qualifying campaign.

Cerny said the BBC Scotland: "now everyone is aware that the next game in Prague will be crucial.

"If we don't win this game, then the campaign may well be."

Unfortunately, "I watched the 90 minutes," revealed Cerny.

Czech Republic is in a period of transition, trying to bring younger players through
Hamilton goalie Tomas Cerny

"Wasn't good football and we didn't play well.

"It was a big disappointment for everyone at home because when teams as Lithuania come to the Czech Republic, we hope to beat them 3-0, 4-0. thats not the case anymore and it's going to be difficult.

"Czech Republic are not as strong as they used to be. If Lithuania arrived in Prague three or four years ago they probably would have been defeated easily.

"Lithuania now has better while the Czech Republic is in a period of transition, trying to bring younger players through."

Cerny, who played in the youth and U21 level for your national team, has not given hope of getting a call to the senior squad. The man who currently occupies the position number one for the Czech Republic is Chelsea's Petr Cech.

Wenger worry in Walcott lesions

Fledgling career of Walcott has been riddled with injuries Arsenal Manager Arsene Wenger admits that he's worried how Theo Walcott's latest injury setback will affect the England international on a mental level.

Walcott, 21, faces up to six weeks after damage the ankle in qualifying victory of England 3-1 UEFA EURO 2012 about Switzerland on Tuesday.

Wenger said: "it is frustrating for you never know what kind of psychological impact has".

"The mental side is always a question mark when a player gets injured".

Walcott first suffered a fire in November 2008 when he visited a shoulder on the duty of England away from him for six months.

Wenger hails Ferguson in the game of 700

A litany of other problems, including back, knee injuries and hamstrings, marked his season 2009-10-availability of stop-start to his club, culminating in its controversial omission cast World Cup England Manager Fabio Capello.

And Wenger added: "when you're a Manager and you see an injury does not adversely affect the career of a player, you're happy.

"After the unknown quantity is only as it will damage your confidence in the box, to combat and all that."

Walcott hasn't made no secret of his disappointment in the summer of Capello snub, but he began this brilliant season for the Club and country.

He found the net three times in four games for the shooters and impressed in their three international appearances – even catch the eye during the 10 minutes that he was in the field in Basel before a challenge by Swiss Yves Oehri Defender ended his night.

But, despite his bad luck, Wenger has supported the player he purchased for 5 million pounds of Southampton in 2006 to return again.

"Ideally, you don't want a player to be injured by EU tackles often bad," said the Frenchman.

"However, believe that Theo will deal well with this because he has done this before."

Runner-up Arsenal retake their League campaign at home to Bolton on Saturday, with Wenger also without the talents of striker Robin van Persie, whose ankle knock carries approximately the same prognosis as Walcott and defender Thomas Vermaelen (Achilles).

Extreme Aaron Ramsey, however, is expected in November, the Welsh continues his rehabilitation from broken leg he suffered in Stoke last February.

Flynn is favorite for the role of Wales

Brian Flynn has impressed as coach of Wales-21 Brian Flynn must be offered the opportunity to be Manager of caretaker of Wales ' for your next two qualifiers for UEFA EURO 2012 next month, BBC Sport understands.

Wales ' youth guru has been in talks with heads of Football Association of Wales and believed that it will be offered the temporary position on Monday.

"Decisions are taken and carefully considered. Let's see on Monday when the situation is clarified," he said.

The FAW finally want a permanent successor to John Toshack.

The 61-year-old got down on Thursday after opening Euro 2012 qualifying defeat Friday in Montenegro.

The FAW insist that they have not appointed a substitute to Toshack, either in part or full time, such as your CEO Jonathan Ford is in Athens to a meeting of UEFA Congress.

The Welsh FA are expected to make an announcement about the position on Monday-but Flynn itself isn't surprised to be connected with the work.

"Obviously (is) due to my position within the framework of Wales," Flynn said Yorkshire Radio.

"I have a good job at the moment I've been working very closely with John in the last six years.

"The greatest motivation for me and for players has been that John is not afraid to play the young players and give them an opportunity which has been great for me, working in this environment".

Born: 12 October 1955 in Termini Imerese clubs managed: Wrexham, Blackpool clubs played for: Burnley, Leeds United, Chelsea FC, Manchester City, Doncaster Rovers, Bury, Doncaster Rovers, Wrexham Wales honors: 66 caps (7 goals) you knew?12 Years Flynn in Wrexham makes a managers serve longer in recent history

And Flynn seems to be its candidate nominated to take the reins Welsh for the qualifiers against Bulgaria in Cardiff on October 8 and Switzerland on 12 October.

The Welsh FA will have five months to decide whether to confirm Flynn permanently in post-assuming he wants to work full-time or nominate someone.

But Welsh Tony Pulis, Manager of Premier League Stoke City, supported credits Flynn for the job.

"I would give to Brian Flynn," said Pulis, who had insisted the wave is "too early" managerial career.

"I think Brian brought a lot of young players through that John was used as an interim Manager, to give the selectors for a little time to choose someone, then I'd let Brian start with it.

The 54-year-old, who will find themselves with their cast-19 of Wales on Saturday before Tuesday's friendly in Liechtenstein, was a popular and highly respected among fans and readers.

Flynn was unearthed and developed young ex-captain that Gary Speed was hailed as "the most talented team for 10 years."

And now the former manager of Blackpool and Wrexham is the favorite to accompany his protege Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Jack Collison etc in senior set-up Wales '.

Toshack, who stood down after Wales disappointing opening Euro 2012 qualifying defeat in Montenegro Friday, named Flynn six years ago, with the mandate to complete the senior squad with young talent to replace the aging internationals.

Flynn applied and was interviewed by job manager Wales-the third time that he was interviewed for the post of Wales-that Toshack began when Mark Hughes left to manage the Blackburn Rovers in 2004.

Manchester United winger Ryan Giggs, Manager of Millwall Kenny Jackett, new Sheffield United chief Gary Speed and Pulis, were excluded from the replacement of Toshack.

Former Wales, John Hartson, which has the Uefa Pro licence badges although now have managerial experience, revealed that he has applied for the job.

Former manager of Fulham and Wales defenseman Chris Coleman also stated an interest in the post as head of Wrexham and former Wales, Dean Saunders, a coach under Toshack, refuses to talk about the wave of managerial Wales.

But respected coach Flynn, former Leeds and Burnley that won 66 Wales caps, between 1975 and 1984 is favorite to get your dream job.

Flynn starred the last time Wales qualified for a final phase when the Welsh reached the UEFA European Championship quarter of 1976-finals, losing over two legs to Yugoslavia.

He succeeded in Wrexham for 12 years and inspired the Welsh Club for one of the biggest shocks FA Cup in history as Wrexham beat League champion Arsenal 2-1 in the third round in January 1992.

Flynn guided Wrexham II Promotion Division and the FA Cup quarter in 1997-parting company in October 2001.

Flynn was revealed Blackpool Manager in September 2002 and guided hand fighting-ensuring the survival of the League on the last day of the season-and helped them to safety before leaving in the middle of the 2003–04 season.

Toshack named Flynn as Welsh guru youth in December 2004 and he transformed an under-21 side of Wales who succeeded in winning a game at 26 attempts between March 1997 and October 2002.

Young Flynn narrowly missed out on 2009-21 European Championship-England strictly, losing to eventual runner-up in a play-off of two hands.

And although lead its pool of virtually the entire campaign, under-21 side Wales ' narrowly missed out on a play-off for the 2011 Championships after a 1-0 defeat in Italy on Tuesday.

"But I understand your decision, it is a nice bloke not hurt-I told him that I would like to stay at the Club".

"I'm not a football Director. I'll be on the pitch, I will be hands on and responsible," he confirmed.

"I was missing the involvement of day to day, which is one of the reasons [I took work]".

Having helped Liverpool in a jar treble in 2001, he hopes that practical approach can deliver first major honours Villa since his triumph of the League in 1996.

"The Club is stable and has a record of gradual improvement," reasoned Houllier.

"Our goal for the future is honors, but that won't happen overnight. people mention the Champions League and in Europe, but let's take it one step at a time.

"Let's make progress, let's make the best of the team that we have and go ahead with an appetite for win and progressing together. But the path to success is not easy."

Houllier, however, reveal a target immediate-improve a sad record against their former bosses.

"Every time I came here we drew or won," he recalled.

"Liverpool have not lost at Villa Park since February 1998, I want to put that right this is one of my priorities and one of my goals for the season."

The failure to beat Liverpool at home was a smaller spot held by O'Neill, but his successor believes he left the Club in good shape.

"Martin is a great Manager, he brought up a good cast and this is one of the reasons that we have a good basis for work," continued Houllier.

"It is difficult to succeed him, but it is always difficult to succeed someone is difficult, but it is exciting.

"I trust the cast, there is potential here do something well.

"Martin was almost there, so let's do our best to get what we want. take some time, but that is my philosophy-progress, performance and pleasure."

The Manager also claimed that he had been told that Andrews believed Collum should have given Hearts a second-half penalty when David Templeton came crashing to the ground at the edge of the box under pressure from Celtic defence Emilio Izaguirre.

However, BBC television images suggest that Hearts Defender Darren Murphy Barr had played onside to and filming is inconclusive for the second.

There seems to be the contact between Templeton and Izaguirre with hearts 2-0 Hearts behind, although seem to have had a stronger case for a marginally free kick out of the box than a penalty although Celtic manager Neil Lennon himself thought he could have been a penalty.

Jefferies said he had demanded an apology from Collum to not delete the opening goal of impediment, but had been shown "a lack of respect".

However, although he had not yet seen the television footage of the incident light, former referee Kenny Clark believes that the Manager of hearts was using tactics designed to divert attention away from losing their unbeaten run this season.

"Any complaint by Jim Jefferies is treated with the contempt it deserves," said the BBC Scotland.

"Ultimately, if someone has been abusive to employees of play during the game, I don't think matching employees must entertain them after the game.

"This was the first real test of the hearts of the season after being in a good race and these remarks appear designed to distract everyone of his defeat.

"Hearts fans, judging from Internet message boards, have bought into that, instead of examining the tactics Manager and performances of their players."

Meanwhile, Jefferies is preparing to be suspended kick after the referee's report arrives at the Office of the SFA on Monday.

"My record is good, but I'll probably be banned," said the Manager, which then would face more action their comments after-match.

Page last updated at 20:39 GMT, Friday, 17 September 2010 21:39 UKDoncaster and Leeds shared the points after a highly entertaining Yorkshire derby at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Leeds' Davide Somma and Rovers' Dean Shields both hit the woodwork in a first half played at a high tempo but short on real goalscoring chances.

The pace did not drop after the break, with Somma getting the ball in the net with 15 minutes left, only to be denied by the off-side flag.

Rovers tried for a late winner but Alex Bruce was imperious in Leeds' defence.

Doncaster began the game the brighter, pinning Leeds back straight away with their intricate passing, but when they first came close to getting on the score sheet, it was by more direct means.

Leeds' Bradley Johnson fouled James Coppinger wide on the right, and when Martin Woods fired in a free-kick, Somma failed to connect as he tried to clear the ball, forcing a fumbled save from Shane Higgs.

Within minutes Somma was in the thick of the action at the other end, as he brushed aside a featherweight Rovers defence to unleash a shot which keeper Neil Sullivan turned onto the bar.

It was then the turn of Shields to hit the woodwork for Rovers, with a right-foot curling shot against the far post from the left-hand side of the pitch.

In the second half, Somma looked to have marked his first start for Leeds with a goal as he followed up Johnson's blocked shot, but was correctly flagged for off-side.

The home side refused to give up, continually harrying the Leeds defence, but Bruce in particular proved to be an immovable object and prevented them finding a route through to goal.

Houllier in Villa learning curve

Houllier wants to hit the ground running when it assumes
New manager Gerard Houllier Aston Villa will have little difficulty, settling in when he assumes control, in accordance with the interim Chief Kevin MacDonald.

Contractual matters with the French Football Federation delayed arrival of Houllier and MacDonald is responsible for Saturday's game with Bolton.

But the Scottish revealed: "we really have spoken to two or three times per day on a variety of things.

"I even talked to him after Thursday reservations-Manchester United win."

Former head of Liverpool Houllier will assist game Saturday booths but be on the hot seat for Carling Cup tie Wednesday against Blackburn.

MacDonald said: "we talk about [2-1] defeat on Monday [in Stoke] and in particular players because, obviously, he's trying to get up to speed with them very, very quickly.

"We talk about what happened [in Stoke] and your thoughts are not ones that like to disclose.

"Of course, he was disappointed, as we all were because we feel our performance deserved better than what we have, but in the end, we didn't get anything."

MacDonald confirmed that, despite the presence of Houllier on Saturday, he has sole authority on team selection and tactics.

"In time and again spoke with him this morning, said he would only let me get started with it and then it will start later," said MacDonald.

Villa lost three games, won two and drawn a shelter MacDonald

"He hasn't felt it would be wrong to come and talk with the players to undermine what I was trying to do, although he can say something later.

"But he told me to go ahead with it, to take decisions, which is very fair it".

MacDonald rejected the opportunity to become Assistant Houllier and instead will revert to his former role as Team Manager.

"For me, has been an invaluable experience. I enjoyed my time I now head back to the reservation and try and push that some guys more forward to the first team," commented on McDonald 's.

"Will also re-evaluate long-term what I do, but I hope I'll be working on Aston Villa in the foreseeable future".

Albrighton grateful to MacDonald

Albrighton slides to check against Lithuania in Colchester extreme Aston Villa Marc Albrighton has paid tribute to the work done by Chief Executive Kevin MacDonald in his role as team manager reserve.

Albrighton, 20, scored his first goal for England under-21s on Tuesday 3-0 victory against Lithuania.

And emerging talent feels the transition team that made the first of the Villa has been understated by MacDonald.

Albrighton "I think it has really helped me in the past two seasons with reservations for Villa", told the BBC.

"That really gave me confidence in my game and now, since he was appointed Interim Manager, who gave me this chance in the first team would like to think I have had it."

Reservations over the past few years have been absolutely fantastic

Midfielder born Tamworth made his first team debut in a Uefa Cup tie against CSKA Moscow in February 2009, a game that saw then Manager Martin O'Neill controversial leave most of their senior players at home.

But took departure of O'Neill for Albrighton to become a regular Championship, and he knows that there are more young people ready to take the step.

Already this season the likes of Eric Lichaj defenders and midfielders Ciaran Clark, Jonathan Hogg and Barry Bannan and attacker Andreas Weimann had a taste of first team action.

"We had many young players, reservations over the past few years have been absolutely fantastic-we have a large group of players.

"We know that if you put any of these young guys in that they will make your job a that will store its own guess has proven that".

Albrighton's goal for England helped secure a place in the play-offs under-21 Championship, with the real prospect of meeting Scotland side of Bannan after they went through with a 2-1 victory over Austria.

"I heard he scored well – he's a terrific player would be brilliant. to play against him, but let's give whoever comes our way."
