Well done to West Ham and Wigan for staying up...I quite like both of them teams. I expect there to be some controversy though, Neil Warnock will kick up a lot of fuss about West Ham's lack of a point deduction.

It was Robbie Fowler's last game at Anfield today, and we gave him a fantastic send off. We took Fowler off in the 89th minute so we could give him a standing ovation...thirty seconds later we are awarded a penalty. I was so gutted for Robbie as he would of took that penalty, a 90th minute goal at the Kop end in his last game at Anfield would of been a romantic send off for him :cry:.

We love you Robbie!

Yeah, it's ironic! The Wigan chairman started all this suing business, and now he stays up! They can't sue us for crap though!

Come on you Hammers!

Yeah Wigan will drop it now I think...its just being bitter...lets see how the summer pans out...

It's seems that Sheffield United will be the only ones trying to save their skins now due to the Tevez thing.

However fans are fickle, I think that Sheffield United fans would prefer to win lots of games and challange for an automatic spot to the premiership 2007-2008.

46 games + two cup runs.

Got to be better challenging for a title in the championship than struggling down at the foot of the premiership table.

Yeah Wigan will drop it now I think...its just being bitter...lets see how the summer pans out...

The Wigan chairman has already said he will continue fighting to get West Ham deducted points even though his own manager pointed out that the reason that they were in relegation trouble was because they were not winning games or playing well enough.

Too much money in football now, rules, common sense etc are all gone, it's no longer sport but a business where the only thing that matters is the end of year profit margin.

With the next TV money though they can't really afford to miss out, because the gap will widen even further between the Premiership and Championship next season I rekon.

Yeah it seems Wigan and Sheff Utd are getting Fulham and Middlesborough involved and even going to some of the top clubs to get support...its looking more bleak for us...

Yep. I still think West Ham are going down.

FIFA could enforce points deduction over Tevez

FIFA are to step into the Carlos Tevez row and will investigate whether West Ham should have been docked points for breaching Premier League rules.

The controversial Argentinean may have played his last game for West Ham.

Sepp Blatter, president of FIFA, said the game's world governing body had the power to pass a final verdict on an independent commission's decision to fine West Ham ?5.5million for having a third-party agreement.

Several Premier League clubs are considering legal action against the Premier League over the commission's sanction, claiming the Hammers should have been deducted points.

? Premier League insist eligibility never in doubt

Blatter told a media briefing in Zurich: 'We will look at this - and not only if we are asked, we will do it anyway.

'We will ask for the file once it has been decided how and why the decision was made.

'If we feel something was wrong in this decision then we have to open our file.'

Blatter said in terms of timescale a 'decision would have to be taken immediately.'

He added that according to FIFA's files the transfer of Tevez and Mascherano from Brazilian side Corinthians to West Ham had complied with international transfer regulations.

Blatter added: 'We will monitor this situation very carefully and once this situation is dealt with by the league and the FA we will ask for the files and have a look because we have the right and the responsibility to see how such cases are dealt with.

'The matter is linked with a club in Brazil - Corinthians - and with the ownership of this club and the ownership of the two players.

'According to our files the transfer of Tevez was done correctly according to the international transfer of players.'

Blatter said a recent ruling by the Swiss federal court against Spanish third division side Rayo Vallecano meant FIFA did have jurisdiction over individual clubs.

He added: 'Yes we have the power. The Swiss federal court has made a ruling by saying that FIFA and its associations have the right and the power to use all 14 sanctions of the disciplinary code starting with a warning and ending with exclusion of a member via relegation and deduction of points.'

In the Rayo Vallecano case, the Spanish club had been threatened with relegation if it did not pay transfer fees owed to a Brazilian club. It claimed, unsuccessfully, that FIFA did not have the power to do so.

F.I.F.A. should mind their own business.

Premiership is over 38 games not 1.

West Ham will not go down.

FIFA oversee all the football so it is their business, dunno what the premiership being over 38 games has to do with anything though :p if tevez wasn't legally registered and played any single game, west ham should have been docked points just like all the other clubs were when they fielded an non-registered [properly] player

It's the premier league that should be dealt with not West Ham United.

They did nothing wrong.

Go back to 1997 when Spurs docked 12 points and kicked out of the FA Cup, Alan Michael Sugar took them over (Spurs) went to court and his defence was that things happened before he took the club over and what happened was, Spurs back in FA Cup and given 12 points.

The premier league are to blame, their bods that run it.

Not West Ham United.

When they signed the two Argentinians the premier league did nothing about it.

August the new season starts, thats not long to go, so how on earth will it be sorted out?

Thats like saying if a pupil in a school does something wrong then its the Schools fault.

West ham United have to accept some sort of blame for this situation and suffer the consequences.

No No No No

West Ham United did nothing wrong.

The premier league make the rules up West Ham United aquired the players, so the premier league who

over-see the premier league should had done something about it last year.

Your point about the school, if a child does something wrong in school, it's upto the school to discipline the child if they don't yes, the school is to blame.

west ham broke the rules no one else, the premier league then didnt give the right punishment out, and so are now [or will be] involved in a legal battle with various clubs to get the proper punishment handed out

There was not a rule for them to break.

You cannot break a rule if it does not exist or is incorrectly applied.

    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
    • Just saw a news report of a Waymo driving into a flooded road.
    • Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout.
