Football FanCast columnist Davis Lowe applauds the Spurs chairman for making a stand and feels that other clubs should follow suit.

I don't think there was a football supporter around who didn't echo the sentiments of Daniel Levy last night. The callus way in which football clubs continue to ride roughshod over rules and regulations is getting beyond a joke and you only hope the FA or Premier League make a stand and make an example of these teams - then who knows, the game might just get some sort of normality return.

Football FanCast columnist Davis Lowe looks at the distribution of funds in European competition and sees why the likes of Everton and Spurs are fighting to bridge the gap.

If anyone ever needed proof that a gulf exists between the top four and the Premier League, then this is surely it. Staggering findings, reported on Everton's club website & BBC, shows UEFA's distribution of wealth for the European competitions last season. To say it seems unfair is something of an understatement.

Football FanCast columnist Davis Lowe is looking forward to the showdown between Man United's Cristiano Ronaldo and Chelsea's Petr Cech and wonders who will have the bragging rights come 7pm tonight.

If there is one thing you can say about Euro 2008 is that it has hardly lived up to its billing. In fairness it has been somewhat of a drab affair, where negativity has been king and skill has been lacking, but as D'ream once proclaimed, "things can only get better".

Football FanCast columnist Davis Lowe reacts to the news that Spurs are lining up a move for Richard Dunne and feels that it will prove money very well spent, should the deal be confirmed.

If there is one thing that Spurs fans are only too aware of is that their backline is simply not good enough. With Ledley King forever struggling to find fitness, Kaboul failing to adapt and the worrying loss of form of Michael Dawson, you can forgive Juande Ramos for looking to bring in an established centre half to complement the impressive Jonathon Woodgate.

Football FanCast columnist Davis Lowe feels that Sir Alex is well in his right to make a complaint to FIFA and feels that suitable sanctions need to be put in place to act as a future deterrent.

It is a disease that has spread into the modern game and one that is continually condoned. The tapping up of players is now rife within Europe and has become common practice on our shores. It is something that has to stop and UEFA have to act now in order to prevent the transfer system becoming an absolute farce.
