Tottenham have been fined 15,000 euros (£11,870) following pitch invasions during the Europa League tie against Partizan Belgrade at White Hart Lane last month, Uefa announces.
Hopefully we pass the fine on to the sub-Balls of Steel bellends that rushed the pitch for "banter"

20th consecutive win.
Ronaldo scored 25 goals in 14 La Liga games.
You'd struggle to match this playing FIFA 15.

Imagine how much better they'd be doing if they played Bale in his 'proper' position on the left....
I was at Bournemouth v Cardiff today and what a great job Eddie Howe is doing down there. He has his side playing some wonderful stuff, good flowing football and it is a pleasure to watch. He deserves a crack in the PL and a PL club will surely take a punt on him soon. It's good to see a young English manager making a decent career for himself in the game.
I hope he stays there for a while and gets enough experience to be able to handle a move to a bigger club, as it looks quite inevitable.
He's very well spoken and does well with the media and when you combine that with Bournemouth's results, I think he'll be pursued by various sides in the near future.
His time at Burnley might put him off accepting any offers, though.
My brother's in Bournemouth, not really into his football but we're going to try and plan my next visit down there to catch a game. Didn't realise their ground was so small, I suppose it's no surprise considering they were in administration a few years back. Any idea if they have any plans to raise the capacity or move to a new ground? They'll be needing a bigger capacity very soon at this rate.
Boro looked good yesterday too, there's a club that's due a promotion back to the Premier League.
When the ground was redeveloped, they actually rotated the pitch 90 degrees and ended up with a three sided stadium. Since then, what was the open end which is to the right of where the players come out, has been turned into a temporary stand with the option of extending both upwards and behind, although that would reduce the onsite parking. Having said that, I'm unsure of how much of the area the club own.
As said earlier, Eddie Howe has them playing some lovely stuff, so well worth making a visit. Not sure how far Howe can go in he game, but he certainly seems to have something about him and I would be very surprised if a bigger club wasn't to look at him very soon.
Perhaps the Burnley stint plays against him. Sometimes managers just suit the club and that could be the case with Howe and Bournemouth. There's also the risk factor for the lower Premier League sides in trying out someone untested at that level. Cardiff tried and failed with Solskjaer, Newcastle failed with Shearer and I'm sure there are some others but they're few and far between. Monk's one that has worked out well though.
Lewis Hamilton
Helped, I think, by winning the F1 title so late in the year.
It should have been McIlroy for me.
CR7 Overseas SPOTY. Portuguese Roy of the Rovers.
Only bothered to watch the last 20 minutes,told my other half Lewis had won it,when i turned it on,but i looked in to see if i could spot my niece in the audience
I find the situation at Rangers quite unusual. As I understand it, McCoist has offered his 12 month resignation and thereby has triggered off a clause in his contract which gives him a sizeable pay increase while he works out his notice. Have I got this right ?
