Court upholds Spurs' Uefa Cup bye


Tottenham have received a bye into the last 16 of the Uefa Cup after the Court of Arbitration upheld Uefa's decision to eject Feyenoord from the tournament. The Dutch side were thrown out of the competition after crowd trouble marred their group match against Nancy, but appealed against that decision.
However, the CAS dismissed the appeal and fined Feyenoord £40,000.
It means Spurs, who will lose out on gate receipts and TV money, go through to a last 16 match with Parma or Braga.
The away leg of the tie will be held on 8 March, with the home return leg on 15 March.

Beckham wins recall to Real squad

Beckham's team-mates wanted him back in Real's squad (wonder if thats so they have someone to blame )

David Beckham has been recalled to Real Madrid's squad for the game against Real Sociedad in La Liga on Saturday. Coach Fabio Capello had earlier said he would not pick the 31-year-old former England captain after he agreed a move to LA Galaxy next season.
But Capello has been forced into a re-think after criticism following the 1-0 home defeat against Levante.
Beckham's Real team-mates, including play-maker Guti, had lobbied Capello to bring him back into the team.
He has not played for Real since January, when he revealed his decision to move to America at the end of his contract in the summer.
Beckham's most recent appearance for Madrid came in the 2-0 defeat at Deportivo La Coruna in the club's opening match of 2007.
Since then he has been left out of the squads for the league games against Real Zaragoza, Real Mallorca, Villarreal and Levante, as well as both Copa del Rey games against Real Betis.
Of those six matches, Madrid have won two, drawn two and lost two. Both of those defeats have come in Madrid's last two matches - against Villarreal and Levante - as the club have slipped five points behind La Liga leaders Barcelona.
They were also knocked out of the cup by Betis on the away goals rule
