it wasn't *just* socks now was it? Either way throwing physical objects is fine yet simple cheering isn't?

Where did I say cheering was wrong? People can sing or do whatever they want at matches as far as I am concerned, I just said that I have never heard Everton as loud as that when Gerrard was taken off, it was like they'd won the league.

You're always going to get one or two ***** at the game to be honest, I think someone threw a bottle but other than that it was just socks everywhere.

It will be a rough road with Gerrard out of play because hes more than a captain on the field, HES EVERYWHERE lol but we have strong players on Liverpool I think we can still play well but certain players have to step up. Riera and Babel have to come in and play epic!! Kuyt,Benayoun and Alonso can do it but everyone has to play well. COME ON LIVERPOOL WE CAN DO THIS

Mate, you have Harry Redknapp in charge of your team.

What's that got to do with anything?

Was referring to Benitez' gamble at leaving Torres and Kuyt on the bench, and still winning....

Old Cod Face is doing a decent job anyway imo. We only had two points from eight games when he joined, remember.

You're hyper sensitive about football banter sometimes mate.

And we only had two points from eight games.

I thought you were having a pop at Rafa, sorry :p

It just ****es me off the way the media were rubbing their hands with glee today at the prospect of an upset. What team could we have put out? Torres could hardly run at the end of the derby on Wednesday, and Alonso had a knock on his ankle. The coverage today on Setanta was cringe worthy and really annoyed me and some fellow Reds.

Plus, I don't like Harry Redknapp that much. Did you see that little flowchart that was going around the net about him? It was so true.

Anyway, you pleased to have Keane back?

3 West Ham players in the England Squad :p

I have to be honest tho Carlton Cole is crap I really don't know how he got there but lets hope he does the business tomorrow.

3 more than us :p

I think Villa have 6 in the squad, which is a crazy amount for one team. O'Neill seems to be building an exciting team at Villa, who are getting the results and a fair few of his players are English.

The liverpool match anoyed me.

The backpass is a stupid f'ing rule. I thought someone was offside in the build up to the third goal.

God, we get 2 goals and we still can't win.

Distin you are costing us points! Why didn't anyone come and help Crouch out?

It was a good game of football, and was full of mistakes.

Nugent was offside for your first, Babel was onside for his bad miss (the referee had his flag up), Aurelio never fouled which led to your second goal, Reina should have easily saved your two goals as well.

And then obviously came the mistakes from Pompey!

On another note, any team that has gone 1-0 up against us in the league this season, has not beat us, which is a nice statistic.

Why the hell didn't we play Arshavin today? It's just as I said before.. Wenger is playing Song, Denilson, Bendtner ahead of him.. :angry: We should've beaten Spurs today.. we were the better team by a mile and then some.. Wenger's decisions are far from my understanding.. whatever he sees in Song, Denilson, Bendtner.. I can't see to be honest and how he fails to see Vela and Arshavin's quality baffles me.. I'm absolutely gutted.. :angry:

Eboue.. one word.. IDIOT.. after the first yellow he should've been more careful.. Why not play Wilshere for a game or two on the wing and form a firing squad especially for Eboue? But again.. Wenger should seriously consider retirement.. how can you have players of the quality of Arshavin, Eduardo and Ramsey on the bench and you still play Eboue, Denilson, Song (although he had a decent game) and Bendter ahead of them????!?? And that too in a derby match?!!!

Yeah eboue is a complete idiot. God damn him, we had to run around the pitch for the rest of the game. Arshavin hasn't played for a couple of months so not a good idea to put him on plus it's better to welcome him at home :)

I'm not saying Arshavin should've started the game.. I'm saying Wenger should've given him a go.. as well as Eduardo, Ramsey and Vela.. and what's with the disallowed goal?!??

I know the FA wants everyone to respect the referees and all but in almost every game we see wrong and objectionable decisions.. why can't we have replays in football, even if its only for the referees??

We did the job, we won. What can I say more, it was a very poor game. Giggs scored for the first time this season. Very nice goal by the way.

I enjoyed more watching Spurs against Arsenal, and it was ****ty too. :D

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +Nik Louch · Posted

      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"

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By Yogurth · Posted

      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 Copernic · Posted

      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.

    • Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system 2-pack is 27% off by Ivan Jenic The Amazon eero Pro 6E mesh Wi-Fi system is currently $239.99 on Amazon for the 2-pack, down from $329.99. That's 27% off and $90 saved for a solid Wi-Fi solution that covers your entire home (purchase link down below). The 2-pack covers up to 4,000 square feet (372 square meters) and supports 100+ connected devices, which handles the vast majority of home setups without breaking a sweat. Wi-Fi 6E brings access to the 6 GHz band for lower latency across the network, and the 2.5 Gb Ethernet port supports gigabit+ internet plans if your ISP offers them. eero's TrueMesh technology handles traffic routing automatically, so you're not manually managing which devices connect to which node. You set up the entire thing through the eero app, and the entire process takes a few minutes. The system also receives automatic security updates in the background, so once you set it up, you don't have to worry about compatibility issues. If you're covering a larger home or want more nodes, the 3-pack is $329.99 and the 4-pack is $479.98, both at similar discount levels. It's worth mentioning that a newer model exists, which is likely the reason for the discount, but the Pro 6E is still perfectly capable hardware for most homes.
