Socceroos captain Mile Jedinak might be facing an uncertain future at English Premier League club Crystal Palace after being stripped of the captaincy.Palace manager Alan Pardew has installed English centre-back Scott Dann as new skipper after a pre-season tour of North America.Ive decided to change the club captaincy, he told the clubs website.Mile has been legendary for this football club and a brilliant leader.I just thought it was time for a change and I think Scott will carry it well.The personal setback for the inspirational midfielder, who led Australia to the Asian Cup title last year, is also a setback for the Socceroos.National team coach Ange Postecoglou has repeatedly stated his preference to have all his players in action as often as possible to enhance the squads form and fitness.The next phase of World Cup qualifiers begin next month against Iraq and United Arab Emirates, although it remains to be seen whether Pardews demotion means Jedinak is not in his first-team plans.Jedinak, 31, joined Palace five years ago and led the side into the Premier League from the second-tier of English football.He captained them in the FA Cup Final last May, becoming just the fifth Australian to play in the showpiece match and the first as captain.But he struggled for fluency during the 2015/16 Premier League campaign due to injury and non-selection.Ankle and hamstring complaints dogged the inspirational Socceroo, also affecting his national team duties.At Palace, Frenchman Yohan Cabaye and Scot James McArthur were often preferred by Pardew in central midfield.Jedinak has also faced competition from emerging English midfielder Hiram Boateng during Palaces pre-season.The Australian has started three of the clubs six friendly fixtures to date.Pardew has made three signings in the off-season break - goalkeeper Steve Mandanda, defender James Tomkins and winger Andros Townsend.It appears unlikely he will add another central midfielder to compete alongside Jedinak, with Pardew instead keen to bring in another striker.The English Premier League kicks off on Saturday, August 13, with Palace starting their campaign at home against West Bromwich Albion.

Officials should not have ejected Penn State?linebacker Brandon Smith for targeting in the second quarter of Saturdays game against Michigan, the Big Ten acknowledged in a statement Wednesday afternoon.Smith, attempting to break up a pass near the goal line, hit the helmet of a diving Grant Perry. Officials threw a flag -- which the Big Ten said was the right move -- but the conference said the referees should have then reversed the call upon further review.In this particular play, the defense was making a legitimate attempt to get the ball and, upon full review, the call of targeting should have been reversed by the replay official, the Big Ten wrote.The Nittany Lions had already lost all their starting linebackers to injury when Smith, a backup and a walk-on, was ejected. Penn State was essentially forced to plug in fourth-stringer?Jan Johnson, a former wrestler, who then suffered a season-ending injury.Immediately following the game, Penn State coach James Franklin said the officials technically made the right decision because the rule doesnt factor in intent.ddddddddddddIts the right call, Franklin said Saturday. If you have helmet-to-helmet contact with a defenseless player, theres no gray area.Asked again about the call on Wednesday following the Big Tens statement, Franklin said,?To be honest with you, I cant say a whole lot about any of these types of things. I was told one thing during the game, so I reinforced that in the press conference -- what I was told. And, obviously, were been in conversations since then with the Big Ten, and they came out with a statement today.I think weve done a pretty good job with targeting, in general. That was kind of a unique situation, so thats one of the reasons the Big Ten came out with a statement to make sure everybodys clear. Because its a little bit of a gray area. ' ' '
