Roy Hodgson involved in touchline spat with Sheffield United player in Crystal Palace's Premier League opener at Bramal Lane

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson was involved in a touchline altercation with Sheffield United's Max Lowe on the opening day of the Premier League season.

Describing the events as they unfolded on Gillette Soccer Saturday, Sky pundit Clinton Morrison said: 'Roy wants to fight someone!

'Max Lowe has gove over to take a throw and he's just tried to move Roy out of the way.

'Roy's grabbed him and said “Don't do that again“, and there's a little bit of a melee but it's alright, it's been sorted.
