Crystal Palace discover likely date for verdict on European football ban
Crystal Palace secured their spot in next season's Europa League after winning the FA Cup but their participation in the competition is in major doubt with UEFA set to make a decision Crystal Palace face a near MONTH LONG wait to discover their European fate. The Eagles secured their spot in the Europa League at the end of the season after beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final. They were set to go straight into the league stage of the competition but there are now doubts over whether the south Londoners can actually compete in the tournament. UEFA rules forbid individuals having control of more than club to be in the same competition at the same time to avoid conflicts of interest. Eagle Football - the group owned by John Textor - is a minority shareholder in Palace, while they are also a majority shareholder in French side Lyon. Both clubs have secured qualification for the Europa League. As it stands, Lyon get priority over the Premier League side due to their superior league finish last term. Palace chiefs have attempted to win UEFA over by flying to their headquarters in Switzerland for talks. But it appears that Palace will have to sweat for a while over their prospects of playing Europe next season. That's according to the BBC, who say a decision from UEFA is not expected until at least the end of the month. The news will be a huge blow to Palace's hopes of planning for next season. Boss Oliver Glasner has already admitted that a place in Europe could affect their transfer ambitions. Speaking earlier this year, he said: 'From a financial perspective, Crystal Palace will never be a top-four club in England. Not with all the other big clubs here and that's not necessary because not everybody can be a top-four club. It's just not possible. 'This club got promoted in 2013. Since then, it has always progressed. Not huge steps. You can be a one-hit wonder and then you're gone. We said: our planning shouldn't be, 'Now we play in Europe, so let's do crazy things', and then everything collapses. We follow a pathway. 'This pathway didn't start with Oliver Glasner. It started with the new owners in 2010. Very stable, mid-table, always between 10 and 15. And this is where we are again. 'Now, it's step by step. Winning this trophy, playing internationally, getting this experience, and maybe getting some players we couldn't by playing European football. This can help us take the next step.' Palace have already seen one of their Premier League rivals take action regarding their European hopes. Nottingham Forest also saw a potential spot in the Champions League in jeopardy due to Evangelos Marinakis' ownership of Greek giants Olympiacos. He diluted his control of the East Midlands club by placing his shares in a blind trust. But Textor is unlikely to follow that example because he and Eagle Football do not have decisive influence over the Croydon outfit.

JIM SPENCE: Paper thin squads at Tannadice and Dens need attention NOW
Both bosses at Dundee and United can expect to come under quick pressure if they don't get recruitment right in the coming weeks. Many Dundee fans are angry at the appointment of Steven Pressley, and even with last season's success, there's still a section of United supporters lukewarm about Jim Goodwin. It was always thus in football with fickle fans. But with both squads currently paper thin, the pressure could mount sharply if decent signings aren't forthcoming. We'll find out soon enough just how attractive the city clubs are to the kind of players who could boost their prospects next season. How great will the lure of European football at Tannadice prove; and how tempting might the prospect be of working with Steven Pressley as manager and with a technical director like Gordon Strachan, at Dens? Both clubs face major rebuilds; Dundee have just twelve signed players while United have had 16 departures, so a host of new faces will soon be on view. With a wafer thin squad of his own, Jim Goodwin's renovation project will be extensive, with players required in all positions, and a first deal now set to be done for Moldovan defender Iurie Iovu. Repeating another top four finish while restructuring the personnel that achieved it last season will be a major challenge. Arabs and Dees will hope their clubs are on the ball and that player identification to rebuild for the new season is already well advanced. Football is fluid and new targets and potential signings often emerge suddenly, so while a range of targets will undoubtedly have been identified at both clubs, there's also the prospect of new signing opportunities appearing as the squads are revamped. United fans, whatever they think of the departed Glenn Middleton, will recognise that when the Tannadice coffers can't compete with those of Doncaster Rovers, then attracting quality is no easy task, and that applies 100 metres up the street too. That means the powers of persuasion and the personal contacts of those in charge must be worked to the max to lure at least the same calibre of loan players who proved successful last season. Both clubs will have to find unique selling points to attract some targets, because if it comes down to purely a cash contest, neither can compete with many third and in some cases fourth tier English clubs. I've seen some United fans say that Middleton should have stayed for the challenge of Europe, but at 25, while he's hardly Methuselah, a player at that stage maybe has only another two decent contracts in front of him. Weighed against the prospect of possibly a very short European campaign, I wouldn't blame any professional for putting the mortgage first. The youth academies at both clubs will hopefully continue to supplement the recruitment of loan players and other signings. Each team has lost talismen; notably Lyall Cameron at Dens and goal machine Sam Dalby at Tannadice. Replacing that quality will rigorously test recruitment strategies. As for Pressley's appointment, Dundee supporters should rally round and support him. He deserves a fair crack of the whip to see what his team looks like and what he's trying to build before fans rush to judgement.

Scottish city to transform its skyline to become UK's 'mini New York'
Glasgow is set to grow taller with plans for new skyscrapers in Charing Cross, Anderston Quay, Trongate and Cowcaddens. Glasgow's skyline could soon rival that of New York as city chiefs unveil bold plans to welcome high-rise development and reshape the urban horizon. Already arranged in a grid pattern reminiscent of the Big Apple, Scotland's largest city now appears ready to grow upwards as confidently as it has grown outwards. A newly published Tall Building Designs Guide from Glasgow City Council pinpoints four strategic areas, Charing Cross, Anderston Quay, Trongate and Cowcaddens, as front-runners for future skyscraper schemes, Express reports. The move marks a decisive break from previous decades, when building heights were curbed well below those seen in comparable European cities. By relaxing those limits, planners hope to bring fresh energy, investment and people into the heart of Glasgow. At present, the city's tallest building is Buchanan Wharf in Tradeston, which rises to 80 metres and also holds the title of Scotland's tallest building. Yet even that landmark is dwarfed by the UK's loftiest structures, such as The Shard in London, soaring to nearly 310 metres, and Deansgate Square South Tower in Manchester at 201 metres. The tallest structure in Glasgow overall remains the Science Centre's Glasgow Tower, a 127-metre needle that can rotate a full 360 degrees, the highest fully revolving tower anywhere in the world. Council leaders say the new guidance reflects a 'significant' shift in strategy, aimed squarely at addressing the city's relatively low centre-city population density, which they argue has long hampered economic momentum. 'Glasgow is unique among Scottish cities in having the scope to build upwards,' officers note in the report. 'Shaped by this Tall Buildings guidance, it is confidently expected the city skyline will change, building towards the kind of city-centre population density that is commonplace in European cities, and the comparable lack of which is an acknowledged barrier to growth in the UK.' The document also presses for more mixed-use projects, encouraging developers to weave retail and leisure venues into ground floors to boost daytime buzz and evening footfall alike. Councillors on the City Administration Committee are due to vote on final approval soon, a decision likely to set the tone for Glasgow's skyline for decades. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Councillor Ruairi Kelly, convener for development and land use, framed the guidance as a cornerstone of wider ambitions to expand both population and prosperity. 'Tall buildings will play a significant role in our ambition to grow the city centre population, and encouraging major construction projects will be a boost for the local economy and employment,' he said. 'Having clear parameters of what we will support, and where, will give clarity to residents and assurances to those who wish to invest and develop in our city. "Glasgow is very much open for business, and if we want to see a thriving city, then we need to build it.'
