Some breaking news and the Football Association has upheld Wes Brown's claim of wrongful dismissal., external

The Sunderland defender was sent off against Manchester United on Saturday for denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity.

His one-match suspension has been withdrawn with immediate effect.

Tim Sherwood on the manner of performances at the club since he took charge: "I was far more encouraged in the Newcastle game than Stoke but that's because I've had more time.

"Zero points could have easily been six, It could have been four. We have to bounce back and get points as soon as we can.

"The pressure should be on them already, if they are not feeling the pressure being second bottom of the league, playing for a massive club like Aston Villa then something is seriously wrong."

Luis Figo has welcomed the idea of a Fifa presidential debate between candidates ahead of the vote in May.

Speaking about the idea, Figo said: "Football is loved and cherished around the world and we owe it to the fans to have an open, honest discussion about the future of Fifa as the international governing body.

"I fully support the idea of a public debate between the candidates as proposed by the BBC and Sky. For this to work effectively, I believe all four candidates need to participate and I will be writing to the broadcasters to confirm that position.

"It is essential that we set Fifa on a new course and the football community, including the public and the fans, deserve to know what all four presidential candidates offer for the future."

Is this something you would like to see happen? Which are you more likely to tune into - Figo v Blatter or Cameron v Clegg v Milliband? #bbcsportsday

On the resilience his bottom of the Premier League side are showing in the relegation battle: "When you consider we've been bottom since November and the players have gone out and put out the performances they have, that shows a resilience in itself.

"As the season wears on, the pressure certainly does build.

"There's no getting away from that and my job is to keep that off the players so they can free their minds to go out and play.

"It remains to be seen how successful we are at doing that. But, I believe that we can turn the situation around."

On the challenge facing his side as they travel to Etihad Stadium: "There's no getting away from the fact we've got to get better results.

"We've got to get back to winning ways. Obviously, the next game gives us a very tough test.

"So, it's important we're positive and play as well as we can. What will define our season from hereon in is our own results."

Some of his thoughts on the way shortly.

Newcastle defender Mike Williamson says the manner of his side's 1-0 win against Aston Villa on Saturday was the perfect response to their humbling by Manchester City the previous weekend.

The 5-0 thrashing by City was described as "pathetic" by Newcastle legend Alan Shearer on Match of the Day.

"The determination, character and persistence were there for everyone to see," Williamson told BBC Newcastle. "We were all aware of the importance on the back of last week's disappointing result.

"The lads were making sure we didn't capitulate, we wanted a reaction and wanted to show people and ourselves. There was a lot of personal pride out there today which can make for a tense game."

A quick line to bring you from Alan Pardew's news conference ahead of their match at Southampton on Tuesday.

The Crystal Palace boss was asked to comment on whether or not captain Mile Jedinak could face a violent conduct charge for appearing to catch West Ham's Diafro Sakho with his elbow in Saturday's 3-1 win at Upton Park.

"Nothing has happened. I would be surprised if something happens with this as it stands," he said.

"But the media have highlighted it and we'll have to see where it goes.

"It's about how the laws are interpreted. We've seen a couple of incidents over the weekend that are being debated retrospectively.

"Things like this and diving, elbows and poor tackles are all on the agenda to deal with."

Southampton captain Jose Fonte has urged his side to "just shoot" in a bid to overturn a run of one goal in five Premier League games.

Saints are winless in their last three matches and have slipped out of the top four for the first time since December.

"We're not finding the net. It's frustrating but we need to take responsibility," defender Fonte told BBC Radio Solent. "No-one will criticise if you try and something doesn't come off - at least try and make something happen.

"Just shoot - it might hit someone and deflect in. That's what we've got to keep trying."

A few of your early suggestions here for sporting second chances in light of Kevin Pietersen's desire to return to the England cricket team.

Abbie Crawley:, external Bring back Xabi Alonso and Sami Hyypia to make Liverpool's defence and midfield impossible to compete against.

Ehsan Khan:, external Mohammad Amir. He was a young and naive bowler and hopefully he has learnt his lesson. We all want second chances!

The Irish Rugby Football Union has submitted a bid to host the Women's Rugby World Cup in August 2017 at locations in Dublin and Belfast.

Irish Rugby hope to host the tournament pool stages at University College Dublin before moving to Belfast for semi-finals and finals at Queens University Sport and the newly developed Kingspan Stadium.

Irish women's rugby is on something of a high at the moment following an 11-8 win against England in the Women's Six Nations on Friday.

Alberto Contador, Chris Froome, Vincenzo Nibali, and Nairo Quintana have all signed up to participate in the Tirreno Adriatico ("The Race of Two Seas"), a World Tour stage race through the mountains of Italy.

The big four (plus Mark Cavendish and Marcel Kittel) have not yet participated in the same race this season and it is unlikely this will happen again before the Tour de France in July.

Steve Bruce responding to questions about Maynor Figueroa's challenge on Stoke's Stephen Ireland on Saturday: "Stephen Ireland committed the worst challenge on David Meyler. It was an awful challenge about 20 minutes in.

"I could take you a picture of Maynor Figueroa's ankle on Saturday, he had five stitches from a tackle he received and carried on.

"Nobody wants to see a cut from an injury that Stephen Ireland received, but unfortunately in football it happens. There's challenges with the way boots are nowadays with these blades that result in these type of injuries.

"Unfortunately Maynor has kicked the ball and has followed through and caught Stephen Ireland's leg."

Steve Bruce on the controversy surrounding Wes Brown's sending off against Manchester United: "I was watching the rugby yesterday afternoon and the referee, before he awarded a try, stopped to speak to the video official before making his decision.

"With the technology we've got, the goal line technology, I can't see the reason why the referee can't go to the fourth official and say, 'I'm undecided here about which one has committed the foul'.

"It was a foul, but he's obviously got it wrong. If he can stop the game for four or five seconds to review the footage, it can get the right decision."

Steve Bruce on his track record of getting wins against his former club Sunderland: "Since I've left, we've done well against them, there's no disputing that.

"But, it's another game. It's another three points as far as I'm concerned and if we get them, it would go a very long way to keeping us in this division.

"I'm only interested in what we do."

Hull City manager Steve Bruce on his side's home match against a fellow relegation struggler: "It gives us a wonderful opportunity of putting some daylight between ourselves and Sunderland in the bottom three.

"If we take that opportunity, it's a tremendous platform for us which is always good with 10 games to go.

"We're both fighting for our lives at the moment. I'm sure Gus Poyet is also seeing it as a tremendous opportunity to get a result to relieve the pressure."
