Pretty good result for the Hammers, and also an outstanding one for Swansea! First win at The Arsenal in 30 years I think!

My beloved Villa were pretty bloody useless again today, almost conjured up a goal at the death, but was not to be!

I'm still here, although as Chelsea supporter, its been a roller coaster of a season thus far. Really not sure what to say of it, really. Not a Benitez fan, really, but finally someone has come in and put the kabosh on David Luiz in defensive back. Sideshow Bob aggrivates me to no end - if he's going to be on the pitch, put him at midfield and let him run around, if anything.

I'm just getting sick of everytime checking the scores and Chicharito or RVP has some crazy ass late minute goal to steal points for MU. Getting rather irritating, actually.

It happens so frequently, it isn't luck anymore. It's written in MU's DNA :) On a serious note yesterdays clean sheet was a milestone for us because we've been leaking goals all over the place this season, hopefully with our defence back to full strength, we can tighten up at the back.

Sideshow Bob, haha great name. I agree, he's a beast in midfield & his free kicks aren't bad either. Chelsea looked strong at the start of the season and I thought they would go on to win the PL. It surprised me how bad they flopped but they aren't looking too at the moment and with a few games in hand, I think they can easily beat Man City to 2nd spot before the season is up :D

Looks like Southampton are finally getting used to the PL. We're not winning as much as we should but we're not losing either. We'd have won yesterday if it wasn't for Cameron's wonder goal. Hopefully we'll have enough to keep us out the relegation battle towards the end of the season. I think Villa is going to be there and looking like QPR also.

Well, big win @ Everton today. Thank goodness for Lampard. We'll see how bad the Cech injury is - at least we have QPR on Wednesday.

No telling what will happen in transfer window. Sounds like Ba is close to done deal - a move I like very much.

Good time to sack our manager when we seem to be on the up.

If they were going to get rid of him, they should have done it at the start of the season.

Him and Pardew have put Southampton where they are now. I think he deserved more than this.

Well at least some other team is going to get a decent manager out of this.

Your board have made you a dead cert for relegation already.

Your ex-manager I heard, will be approached by Villa very soon.

It feels that way and at the moment I wouldn't be too bothered, would feel like an I told you so to NC. However come Monday I will be 100% behind the team and new manager.

NA is a genuinely good person and a good manager, he won't be out of work for long.

Alot of tweets I saw and response from Saints fans are saying they will go down now, the new manager said he had been studying the club for several weeks...football is just cruel and mystifying sometimes!

Honestly don't understand this one. I suppose if it's been weeks in the making then yes, but the timing of it seems absurd! Lets hope NC gets this one right, the last time he sacked a manager was Pardew when we just picked up a big win. He was replaced by Adkins and we all know how that one went, hopefully lightning can strike the same place twice.

    • NASA: This asteroid may not kill us but it probably won't be far off either

      NASA: This asteroid may not kill us but it probably won't be far off either by Sayan Sen Image by Zelch Csaba via Pexels New observations by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have eliminated the last remaining impact threat posed by asteroid 2024 YR4, ruling out the possibility that the near-Earth object could strike the Moon in December 2032. NASA said observations collected by Webb on February 18 and 26, 2026, enabled scientists to refine the asteroid's orbit enough to "rule out a chance of lunar impact on Dec. 22, 2032." Instead, asteroid 2024 YR4 is now expected to pass the Moon at a distance of about 13,200 miles (21,200 km). The agency stressed that the update "reflects improved precision in our understanding of where the asteroid is expected to be in 2032 rather than a shift in its orbital path." The announcement closes a remarkable chapter in planetary defence that began in late 2024, when the approximately 60-metre-wide asteroid briefly became the most closely watched near-Earth object in the world. Discovered on December 27, 2024, by the ATLAS telescope in Chile, 2024 YR4 initially appeared to have a small chance of colliding with Earth on December 22, 2032. As astronomers gathered more observations, the impact probability briefly climbed to around 3%—the highest ever recorded for an asteroid of its size—before steadily falling as its orbit became better understood. By early 2025, international observations had ruled out any significant risk to Earth. However, astronomers were left with another possibility: a roughly 4% chance that the asteroid could instead strike the Moon. "The probability that asteroid 2024 YR4 will strike the Moon on 22 December 2032 is now approximately 4%," the European Space Agency (ESA) had said last year, noting that "there is a 96% chance that the asteroid will not impact the Moon." ESA said such an impact, while unlikely, would have presented an extraordinary scientific opportunity. "It is a very rare event for an asteroid this large to impact the Moon – and it is rarer still that we know about it in advance. The impact would likely be visible from Earth, and so scientists will be very excited by the prospect of observing and analysing it," said Richard Moissl, Head of ESA's Planetary Defence Office. "It would certainly leave a new crater on the surface. However, we wouldn't be able to accurately predict in advance how much material would be thrown into space, or whether any would reach Earth," he added. The asteroid also exposed an important blind spot in planetary defence. Because 2024 YR4 approached Earth from the direction of the Sun, it remained hidden from ground-based telescopes until after its closest approach. "We looked into how Neomir would have performed in this situation, and the simulations surprised even us," Moissl said. "Neomir would have detected asteroid 2024 YR4 about a month earlier than ground-based telescopes did. This would have given astronomers more time to study the asteroid's trajectory and allowed them to much sooner rule out any chance of Earth impact in 2032." He added, "As an infrared telescope, like Webb, Neomir would have also immediately given us a much better estimate for the asteroid's size, which is very important for assessing the significance of the hazard." The latest NASA observations underscore the value of space-based infrared telescopes in tracking faint asteroids. According to NASA, Webb made "among the faintest ever observations of an asteroid," extending the object's observational record by nearly eight months at a time when it had become too faint for other telescopes. That additional data allowed scientists to eliminate the remaining uncertainty surrounding its 2032 flyby. Although asteroid 2024 YR4 is now confirmed to pose no threat to either Earth or the Moon, scientists say its discovery remains one of the most significant real-world tests of the international planetary defence system, demonstrating how continued observations can rapidly transform an object once considered hazardous into one whose future path is known with high confidence.

      Yup. Google is just scraping the entire internet for their own ad profits without sharing revenue with the sources. It's obviously stealing, but since these sites depend upon Google's search scraps to survive... As for me, I just stopped using Google for anything except Reddit searches. If Reddit's own search wasn't complete crapola, I'd never use Google search again.
