'I would have knocked his teeth out if it had been anywhere else'
Paul Heckingbottom claims the fourth official swore at him during today's Edinburgh derby - and he isn't happy about it ๐

Preston North End Football Club have today taken the decision to part company with Paul Heckingbottom as First Team Football Manager.
Football is a results business and despite significant investment in the playing squad since Paul joined, the results during 2026 and the start of this current campaign have not been acceptable.
Paul leaves us with our thanks and best wishes. His professionalism and work ethic during his time with us have been second to none.
As a result of this decision Stuart McCall has also left the Club today. We similarly thank Stuart for his contribution over the last two years and wish him all the best for the future.
We will now look to appoint a new manager as soon as possible but until such time as we do Jason Euell will take charge of first team matters on an interim basis.
@GrahamTaylsne9 @SamJayne11 We switched to a 5 back mid game. When we switched Lang and Burgzorg came off for kenny and Erabi. Meaning while Burgzorg was on the pitch he played left winger. Also see below. Please educate yourself before commenting next time ๐
@GrahamTaylsne9 @BlackpoolFC Youโd think Alfie Devine played for Blackpool the way you go on about him. Calling me obsessed when the best you can do is go top of League 1 for a weekend in augast ๐ฅด. Fuck me your fan base is pathetic
