Major news struck the US soccer landscape last week as the National Women’s Soccer League may have a domestic competitor in operation from as early as next year.
Eddie Howe has targeted a period of sustained success for revitalised Newcastle after the ambitious boss ended his club's 20-year absence from the Champions League.
Sam Allardyce arrived at St James’ Park for his May 2007 unveiling as Newcastle’s manager by helicopter. Eight underwhelming months later, Big Sam was sacked – and immediately had to hand his top-of-the-range company car to security, leaving him requiring a lift home to County Durham in his press officer’s somewhat more modest vehicle. Allardyce’s hefty payoff from Mike Ashley, Newcastle’s then-owner, enabled him to buy a lavish villa on Spain’s Costa Blanca, swiftly dubbed ‘Casa St James’ but the current Leeds manager has not forgotten what he describes as a “massive, massive career setback”. Allardyce has played down any talk of old scores being settled when Eddie Howe’s Champions League-chasing team visit Elland Road on Saturday but there is little doubt that Allardyce would enjoy sticking a metaphorical two fingers in the directions of those travelling Newcastle fans whose lack of enthusiasm for his tactics arguably prompted that dismissal. Much more importantly, this is a game Leeds surely cannot afford to lose – and quite possibly need to win – if they are to avoid falling into the Championship. Louise Taylor

Burnley secured their promotion back into the Premier League on Saturday after beating Middlesbrough 2-1 on the road. Vincent Kompany's men, who have the best and away record in the Championship so far, took the lead through Ashley Barnes in the 12th minute, before Chuba Akpom equalised from the spot early in the second half. However, Connor Roberts scored the winner with less than 25 minutes of normal time left to play as the Clarets sealed top-flight promotion on first attempt after being relegated.
