"Liverpool reclaim summit but fall short of peak form" is the headline in the Independent today. Sums it up really..

It was a dull game.. Liverpool missed Torres as much as Chelsea missed Drogba.. but still they drew atleast.. there was a scare in the last minutes but Boa Morte missed an easy goal scoring opportunity..

Good for us lot though.. difference from top of table is still in single figures :p

Typical Chelsea fan?

I've watched every single Liverpool game this season, and even been to a few of them.

Unfortunately I've been busy with work/school. Living an ocean away doesn't help either, we are very limited as to what games we get on tv.

Typical liverpool fan being a tool.

Arsenal slipped up last night against Burnley, its a really open cup now especially if Utd go out.

At least they beat Chelsea in the league, even if it was thanks to the referee :blush:

Since Arsenal probably can't win this year I'm hoping for a 'Pool win, I really don't like Chelsea and ManU.

We only get like 2 Premier League games a week on TV here, but internet is a wonderful thing :D

yeah man, its hard watching games this side of the water, especially when you are right beside the pacific ocean, and not the atlantic. You think its hard for greg, it's even harder for me. Some times i just can't do it (like i didn't catch this weeks game), because the game is at 4 AM and i have class in the morning... Champions league games are fine, 1130 AM usually Pacific time and i NEVER miss those ones. But EPL games are a huge effort.

Liverpool escape censure over Shields support

The Football Association will not take any formal action against Liverpool after their players wore T-shirts carrying a message of support for a fan who was jailed for the attempted murder of a Bulgarian waiter in 2005.

Shields' parents formed part of the pre-match demonstration.

Liverpool players wore the T-shirts in the warm-up for the Premier League match against West Ham on Monday.

Michael Shields was sentenced to 15 years in prison after being convicted of the attempted murder of Martin Georgiev in Bulgaria on a holiday taken after seeing his side win the Champions League final in Istanbul.

Liverpool's players were seen wearing 'Free Michael now' T-shirts while warming up ahead of Monday's televised 0-0 draw with West Ham at Anfield and Brookside actress Sue Johnston was invited on to the pitch with Shields' parents to make a speech calling for British justice secretary, Jack Straw, to "do the right thing".

Despite another man confessing to the attack, Shields was locked up and his sentence was reduced to 10 years on appeal. He was transferred to the UK to serve the remainder of his sentence, but his supporters have never halted their campaign to prove his innocence.

Another Liverpool fan admitted being responsible for the crime before later retracting his confession and Shields' case will go before a high court review on Thursday.

An FA spokesman said: "We have spoken to Liverpool Football Club about this matter. We understand that Michael Shields' case is a very emotive issue and one that many Liverpool players and fans feel strongly about.

"Having heard the club's explanation we will not be taking any formal action, and we are satisfied that they understand the sensitivities around football matches being used as a platform for political messages.''

LET HIM GO!!!

Yup, I'm a tool for watching my team and going to the games, and you of course are not a tool because you haven't watched one Chelsea game this season. Makes sense.

I called you a tool because of your remarks. I've been to many sporting events of teams that I support this year, US Football, Hockey, College Soccer, College Basketball, etc... Hell, I haven't missed a Tampa Bay Lightning game this year because I work for them....I watched a few preseason games from the epl but we only get 2 Chelsea games on tv a season. However, I am a true blue member so I am supporting my team in that sense. Would you pay 120$ a year for a team that you live over 4410 miles from?

The shed is calling you back my friend...

Edit: Its really 4,400 miles not 4,000!

Just got back from CC game vs Watford. Comfortable Spurs win in the end, although Watford took their goal well and looked good in the first 15 of each half.

Incredible singing though in the second half HARRY REDKNAPPS, BLUEANDWHITE ARMY! YIDS! Spurs are on their way to Wembley.

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.
