Tottenham's next Uefa Cup opponents Feyenoord have been excluded from this season's competition.

Uefa has banished the Dutch club after the crowd trouble during their match in France against Nancy on 30 November.

The group stage game had to be stopped for half an hour because of trouble in the stands as Feyenoord trailed 3-0.

Feyenoord were set to play Tottenham in the last 32 knockout stage of the Uefa Cup but Spurs are now likely to get a bye into the next round.

Feyenoord had originally been fined ?81,000 and handed a suspended sentence to play two matches in an empty stadium.

The decision was taken by Uefa's independent Control and Disciplinary board, but European football's governing body appealed the decision for a harsher punishment.

"The appeal by Feyenoord against the original punishment handed down by the Uefa Control and Disciplinary Body was rejected," said a Uefa statement.

"Feyenoord were also ordered to contact Nancy regarding settlement of the damages."

Uefa are expected to confirm next week whether Spurs will get a bye, which appears the most plausible option.

Well it seems UFEA have not got any time for such troubles. Good on them for taking a stance against such problems.

Why is it that alot of the european clubs suffer from thugs in the game? England had it's fair share with pretty much most clubs in the 70's having it's own firm. At least most of our thugs are now old and cause no problems.

    • Microsoft explains why Windows 10 users should upgrade to Windows 11

      By eilegz · Posted

      If by "Modernized user experience" means usability downgrades like worse taskbar, worse start menu, worse context menu and less customization no wonder people haven't switch because lack of features that all previous version of windows had. With "Speed" menas taking 4 years to fix AMD ryzen CPU performance while currently intel 12th gen have performance regressions. All the inconsistency that guess what w10 dont have and to this day still run better, snappier, with less hardware requirements and better optimized. Maybe new hardware will run better on new OS but most most likely they already have w11 and pretty much still hate it compared to people its still w10 running on hardware that its still good but Microsoft decided that its not good enough on the bloated, bug infested and unproductive OS.

      Dude, if that's all your mom does on her computer, then Linux is perfect for her. Your mom is the ideal Linux user, believe it or not. I personally recommend Linux Mint Cinnamon, as it's very Windows-like in terms of UI and UX. https://linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=319 Just pick any mirror and away you go. You can try it as a live image before installing it to see if your mom will actually like it.

      Even Edge on Android supports extensions like AdGuard and uBlock and it has its own ad blocked integrated as well. Google Chrome is actually the worst mobile browser if you're worried about ads and privacy.

      I mentioned cable service one pays for yet you still see ads. What's the difference if it's a service or a device? Sure cable and streaming services are optional but your not watching a whole lot in the way of content on your TV without them. No one is required to use Apple Pay/Wallet and the fact it can't be uninstalled is not really relevant to anything. It was mentioned a setting is coming to disable those ads even if one is using the free service. As far as I know those disclaimers are in the end user agreement. No one reads them. LOL It could be a pop-up message but most would just "click" past it. Regardless, everyone already knows they will see ads on their devices at some point and should not be surprised. There is a lot of intrusive advertising out there. Just walk outside your house and go anywhere and your eyes will be assaulted with ads. That is something I wish would be regulated more. TBH I see zero ads on my PCs (Linux and ad-blockers FTW!) and ads on my phone and tablet are very limited. One ad from Apple Pay/Wallet (that I have not seen on my iPad) is not even making my top 100 concerns.
