premier league table with just two wins in11 premier league table with just two wins in 11 matches, just losing to liverpool 4—1 at the weekend, quite often they say the writing is on the wall. something that slaven bilic himself knew. he was approached by reporters this morning after being at the club's training ground, saying he was sacked. he turned around and said he thought it was a logical move. saying he wanted it to be put on the record the west ham fa ns be put on the record the west ham fans had been brilliant during his time at the club. that time was two and a half years, spanning their move from upton park to dear abby london stadium. adam wild has been looking back. premier league football is full of surprises. the sacking of slaven bilic is not one of them. another dark day that slaven bilic and west ham. saturday's dismal defeat to liverpool proved ultimately to be the final straw, his departure is

seemingly a case of when, if not leave. the pressure mounts, this moment is big. of course the club is above everyone. every individual. we're going to see what the club is going to do. what the club chose to do was bring to an end a rain that started with such high hopes. a former west ham player, slaven bilic was a popular pointman. in his first season was a popular pointman. in his first season in charge he steered his side to seventh in the league, into europe, and the quarterfinals of the fa cup. they have won it. can you believe it? west ham have won this type. and now west ham and bilic will begin a new era. a new stadium was opposed to elevate the club to even greater heights. so far, it has not. it will take time, they could be frustrations on the way. west ham have moved, they are not going back.

11th place last season was certainly respectable. dumped out of the cup 5-0 respectable. dumped out of the cup 5—0 in their new home a little less so. 5—0 in their new home a little less so. this season, things have been a little worse. a for west ham. what might it mean for slaven bilic? just two league wins leaving them in the relegation zone. disquiet from the fa ns relegation zone. disquiet from the fans and empty seats all too common. though the to slaven bilic has finally run out. difficult time for slaven bilic ending in his dismissal. what is next for the joint chairman, david golden david sullivan? it is thought they could bea sullivan? it is thought they could be a new manager in charge as early as tomorrow morning. widely thought the person to takeover will be david moyes. he is best—known for his time at everton, and the man who went in at everton, and the man who went in

at manchester united after the retiring sir alex ferguson. most recently appointed at sunderland when they were relegated to the championship. he left in may following the relegation. it is that that concerns a lot of west ham fans. does he have the right skill set to keep west ham in the premier league? he does have the luxury of a bit of time on his hands. it is an international weekend. that means west ham's match in the premier league, the next one they will be playing is at watford a week on sunday. outside a chilly london stadium. thanks for joining sunday. outside a chilly london stadium. thanks forjoining us. the draw for the second round of the fa cup will take place over on bbc two at seven o'clock this evening. seven non—league clubs definitely through. slough town play in the southern league premier division. the seventh tier of english football. they thrashed it gainsaid

—— they thrashed gainsborough trinity. fantastic achievement from the lads. to be 90 minutes away from the lads. to be 90 minutes away from the big boys, a dream come true. only the fa cup can do this for you. looks like you have a big crowd, you will all be together watching expectantly. who would you hope for in the second round? big name, or the best possible chance of getting through? probably at this point now, the best possible chance of getting through. we have been talking about it today. whilst there are some massive clubs in it at this stage already, to get to the third round is the prize that everyone wants. we are no different. hopefully a home game. and a winnable one. what would it mean to you, your players, the fans, and from a financial point of view to make it around three?m would be massive for the town and

the club. financially the rewards are huge. from a player ‘s' and a manager's point of view, it is the personal glory. we started this competition back in december. discussing the personal glory, the potential of tv cameras, things like that. today we're living the dream. you cannot underestimate the fa cup. i've seen people sometimes put it down. it is the best cup competition in the world. it is great to be part of. even bigger tournament on the horizon. the line—up for the world cup in russia will be completed over the next few days. northern ireland looking to reach the tournament for the first time since 1986. they will face switzerland side that had a 100% group record before defeat to portugal in theirfinal 100% group record before defeat to portugal in their final qualifier. michael o'neill face the host in belfast on wednesday with a return three days later. they are

first—class players. we have a lot of experience. talking about the experience in the euros. that will stand us in good stead. obviously they are an experienced team as well. we are full of confidence, we don't dare anyone. windsor park will be rocking. gareth southgate anything in team are ready safely through to russia this summer. they have pretty difficult fixtures coming up against the top two ranked teams in the world. the current world champions germany at wembley on friday. before another home game with brazil. here is the latest bit of silverware showing off at saint georges park. another trophy for the england age groups. this for the under 17s world cup trophy. they won that a couple of weeks ago. fantastic summer for the age—group teams here. now all attention turns to the world cup for the senior men next summer. these two matches coming up in the friendlies against germany and brazil, but they will

tell the england team, the seniors area tell the england team, the seniors are a lot more aboutjust where they are a lot more aboutjust where they are at after a relatively drama free qualifying campaign. you look at the teams, germany and brazil, fantastic players and teams. gives us a climbing stone, how close we are. obviously approaching the world cup. we had to use these genes, and show we are in competition with them. abraham one of three players called up abraham one of three players called up to the england squad for the first time. a squad seeing the likes of chris smalling, alex oxlade—chamberlain and daniel sturridge left out. gareth southgate has been brutal with his selection. only once players featuring for their first only once players featuring for theirfirst team. only once players featuring for their first team. if abraham is to get them looking in this england squad, he knows the man in possession of the england striker‘s jersey is harry kane. i think he has shown the whole world, a player i really look up to. looking at his goals, finishing from the way he is

on the pitch. something i would like to add to my game. a good player as well. kane and harry winksjust two the squad that willjoin a play during the week recovering from knocks picked up in germany and brazil. england will know how much work they have to do to get ready for russia in the summer. the ownership of everton has been called into question by the leaked paradise papers. a state was sold in arsenal to buy half of the merseyside club. it is suggested the original stake was funded by alisher usmanov, who ends 30% in arsenal. —— who owns. the football federation chair martin clark believes there is a strong case for reviewing the rules on club

ownership. powerful clubs are part of the cultural heritage of our local communities. i draw the analogy with the listed building. they are very important institutions. there is a far greater case for transparency about who owns what. this is particularly when there are hedge funds is involved, or strange corporate entities based overseas. that we think should be a major thrust of policy change. here isa major thrust of policy change. here is a look of what we have coming up in the programme. no pirlo borini party. the great andrea pirlo announces his from football. we will hear more about the horse heading to become the first british winner of australia's melbourne cup. a row has emerged in the sport of tennis. the

draw ceremony for the next gen atb finals has been criticised for asking female models to remove clothing to determine the group. the tournament for the best players under the age of 21 gets under way in milan tomorrow. what exactly is the cause of the outrage? this was the cause of the outrage? this was the draw for the event showcasing the draw for the event showcasing the future of talent in the men's game. almost as if we had woken up in1978, game. almost as if we had woken up in 1978, watching the draw ceremony unfold. players were asked to select one of two models, it was taking place in milan. they walked down the catwalk arm in arm. at that point the female models removed an item of clothing, either the letter a, the female models removed an item of clothing, eitherthe lettera, or the female models removed an item of clothing, either the letter a, or b. they looked very uncomfortable, the players in particular. a rising

canadian star found out which groupie was in when the model selected a lacy is what has the reaction been from the atp tour and some of the bigger names on tour? quite a reaction on social media. judy murray, recently the fed cup captain tweeting it was awful. amelie mauresmo another person with strong connections to murray, former wimbledon champion said ita murray, former wimbledon champion said it a disgrace. ellie is a corneille, wta player online raising objections. this is co—sanctioned by the atp and the italian tennis federation. the draw was sponsored by, and by and

large organised by red bull. as a result both the atp and red ball haveissued result both the atp and red ball have issued a statement completely apologising for the draw. they say we apologise for the offence caused, the intention was to integrate malan's rich heritage is not the fashion capitals of the world. our execution was in poor taste and unacceptable. we deeply regret it, and will ensure there is a repeat of it in the future they are normally bitter rivals, but the england and wales rug by bitter rivals, but the england and wales rugby teams have been training together today for the very first time ahead of important international matches at the weekend. the two countries scrum down at clifton college in bristol. the idea was to replicate the intensity of a test match, but also a special thrill for peoples who got

to watch the practice. a meeting in by to watch the practice. a meeting in rugby minds and muscle. the big and tough forwards of eddiejones' england. and warren gatland's welsh pack. quite a lot of secrecy surrounding the session. the country is going through quite a lot of tactics to date ahead of the weekend. although you can stand on the road and watch the session, we are not allowed in to film it. that did not stop the more curious from sneaking a peek over the college will. they have just started the scrum practice. the welsh were doing line—up practice. could not recognise that many faces through the green mesh. what have you managed to see? not much, some green mesh and practice scrums and line—outs. mesh and practice scrums and line-outs. i guess they were opposition. the more they can keep out the better. the students at the couege out the better. the students at the college got the best view of the session. some got a little closer than they were expecting. well, one

of the welsh players picked me up like a rugby ball. putting me in between their arms. they were sweat dripping down only from his head. quite cool. what was your favourite bit of the session? when they were in the scrum, they were making lots of dents on the floor. shouting committees. it was so close, they are so much bigger in real life. amazing how much bigger they are. they are like massive giants. how did this come about? came about a couple of years ago when eddiejones came with japan, before they played south africa and had a famous victory. good memories of the place. a few weeks ago they asked if we could do a training session. the peoples got wind of it, we formally said what was happening this morning. we let them off five minutes of lessons. a major step for us. minutes of lessons. a major step for us. how was it today? interesting, what a great tool to help us out with. for them, must what a great tool to help us out with. forthem, must be quite nicene two international packs meeting up, in their school pitch, ripping it apart. hopefully the groundsman will

be too happy. don't worry, those digits have already been repaired. just hours later the peoples at clifton college could say they trained on the same pitch as england and wales. maybe some future internationals out there. one of the world's most prestigious horse races in the world from a prize fund of more than 5.5 million. the melbourne cup has never been won by british horse. there are fourin been won by british horse. there are four in tomorrow's race. including a scottish man. it is a full house at this racing yard near dumfries. 70 horses in training. one boxes empty. it belongs to naco, the star of the sta bles, it belongs to naco, the star of the stables, currently down under in search of one of the sport's biggest

races. nikita. tremendous finish. after seven big faces daily mackem it is in races, she finally came goodin it is in races, she finally came good in the biggest races in europe. what has achieved this is something special. fantastic day. he does deserve to be one of the favourites in the yard. that victory gave his scottish trainer and owners, based in kent, the confidence to gain big. nothing much bigger than the melbourne cup. dubbed the race that stops the nation. an irish horse won be ibor. i thought to myself, why not make the entry. nikita's journey was long. 10,000 flying mouse, periods of quarantine at either end. two

members of stable staff with him every step of the way. ian jardine has trained them for the final preparations. these training gallops over the solway firth is where nikita has put in the biggest work head of the potentially two mile biggest run of his life. there is no point going all the way to the other side of the world thinking this is a chance. we will go over there with a positive attitude, hopeful more than being covered. we think he has a nice chance. fingers crossed for a british winner. just about out of time on sportsday. seven o'clock for the fa cup second round draw. before we go, only day andrea
