What are these weeds

Can anyone tell me what weeds these are and what do I use to get rid of them. They are taking over my lawns. The first two photos are of the same plant.

The first two are a form of clover, I think & it spreads like crazy.
I have a lot in my lawn for the first time, too.
I've used turfix.

Sorry but your photos are not really clear enough for a good ID but as suggested, any good turf spray should get rid of them and not damage the grass. Your lawn appears to be in much need of a good feed also. By feeding you thicken up the turf making it harder for weeds to take a hold.

I think the third photo is that awful prickle weed.

The photos were taken beside a tree line where the grass is a bit thin. The rest of the lawn is in better condition than that. A couple of months ago I sprayed the lawns with Yates Weed & Feed. It's obvious that it doesn't weed out these two types of plant. We've also had a lot of very dry weather and the lawn is in need of a good drink.

I vote for suckling clover for the 3rd photo. I find it has one main root and can be pulled out reasonably easily if the ground is soft enough.
