Honestly, ITV need to get a new in studio line up! Steve Ryder and Andy Townsend are just unbearable! Makes the old Des Lynam/Gabby Logan and Terry Venables team look like the best presenters in sport! :p

I wanted to watch a cup final tonight and feel like I got a boring top vs. lower half league match! I'm glad the CL Final isn't the final match of the season this year! But dammit, the FA Cup final is back on ITV this year! :crazy:

On that subject, the CL Final is usually the final game of the season, after the FA Cup final usually on the Saturday before hand. Anyone know why it was scheduled later this year? Just outta interest!

I can't take being beaten by a team that shouldn't have been there, period. If it weren't for that Norwegian egg who reffed the Semi-Final with ****-up after ****-up, it would have been a repeat of last season's final. :(

And what makes you so sure you would've beaten them? They won once in the league other time they drew.. Guus Hiddink would have outfoxed Fergie..

Barcelona played United off the park, terrible performance from United. Well done Barcelona.

Looking forward to it all again next season!

I'll leave all the drama/fighting and team bashing to you guys but, I have stuff to do now :p Just remember where your teams finished before going nuts ;)

Why would that matter Liverpool were knocked out by Chelsea not United ...

Because every real Liverpool fan hates United with every ounce of their being, and wants them to lose every match they enter maybe? If you where a real football fan, that'd be a bit more obvious to you, but as a member of the Manchester United glory hog club, I guess i'll let you off.

United where awful everywhere today, and can have no complaints at all about being beaten. And that just shows me that United are not the best club team in the world, they have stuttered and stuttered all season, and when they came up against an opponent with enough quality to really test them, they came up short.

Iniesta was my motm..

Wenger says what I felt tonight best..

“I would want him(Henry) to do well because I know one thing he needs and he deserves in his career is a successful Final. People don’t realise what happened to him in 2006.

“He played in the Champions League Final and just lost. He knows he had the chance to score the second goal. Then he went on and played in the World Cup Final and they lost on penalties. When you are 30 years-old, how much does that hurt?

“You think that might be my last chance to be in there. For him to go back into the Final and do well is very important.

“So I will support him in this game. That’s not Barcelona. I would just want him to play well and then I want the team who plays the best to win.”

Edited by Kralik

I think I heard that just before the kickoff. Odd for them to break tradition. Only one final before was played outside of a Wednesday, and that was a replay, played 48 hours after the game was a draw.

That's just about what I thought ..

Up the Gills by the way ... :D

Pikey, you from Gillingham too?

Anyway, i haven't seen United pass the ball that badly in a while and they seemed like they were afraid of tackling the Barca players or should have at least tried tp pressure them a bit more. Carrick should have been taken off before Park. He had an absolute stinker.

as Liverpool fan I am happy

Really? A Liverpool fan who doesn't live in Liverpool? Wait til Martyn finds out!

And that just shows me that United are not the best club team in the world, they have stuttered and stuttered all season, and when they came up against an opponent with enough quality to really test them, they came up short.

One bad game doesn't make a team bad... if we weren't good we wouldn't have been in the final.

    • Microsoft OneDrive is getting a simple yet much needed feature by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily expanding OneDrive’s file management capabilities over the years, including for shared content and shortcuts, although it has had its flaws, too. The cloud storage platform introduced support for folder shortcuts several years ago, allowing users to pin frequently accessed shared folders from OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Now, Microsoft is refining that experience further with a new way to organize those shortcuts as revealed in a recent Microsoft 365 roadmap addition. Previously, shortcuts added through the “Add shortcut to My files” option would appear alongside all other files and folders in the root of a user's OneDrive. And although it's meant to be useful, this approach could also create clutter along the way, especially for heavy users who may have to work with large numbers of shared folders across multiple projects and teams on their systems. This is where Microsoft’s latest feature comes in, as it is looking to address this inconvenience by giving users the option to place new shortcuts inside a dedicated “Shortcuts” folder instead. The feature is designed to keep shortcut links organized into a single location instead of scattering throughout the main OneDrive directory. Hence, the idea is to make navigation and usability easier and simpler. The first time a user chooses this option, OneDrive will automatically create the folder, and to help make it stand out from the other folders, the Shortcuts folder will have a distinct visual identity featuring a unique color and a building-style icon. That being said, the new Shortcuts will behave just like any other folder in OneDrive, and as such, users will be able to move it to a different location, rename it, share it with others, or remove it entirely if they prefer a different structure. You can view the entry on the Microsoft 365 roadmap website here. Currently, the feature is in the "in development" phase, but the tech giant expects the rollout to start next month (July 2026). Do keep in mind, though, that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
    • VS Code 1.123 introduces massive upgrades for persistent AI developer workflows by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.123 alongside its annual developer conference, Build 2026. This release, as always, has a heavy focus on advanced AI agent integration and making the built-in browser more robust. Notably, this update brings big sync changes that keep your AI agents persistent across sessions. With this update, VS Code now supports cross-machine syncing for chat histories, touched files, repository contexts, and related PRs via GitHub accounts, tying users even more into Microsoft’s developer ecosystem. This update also introduces the new /chronicle command that allows you to query past sessions using natural language, generate instant standup reports, and get personal productivity insights. Microsoft has also made some improvements to network-dependent operations, it explains: “When a terminal command that is run by a local agent requires access to domains that are not configured as allowed domains, the command is automatically retried inside the sandbox with unrestricted network access. After that, if it still fails, it falls back to unsandboxed execution. This allows network-dependent operations such as git fetch to finish, while keeping filesystem protections in place.” Microsoft has not stopped there; in this update, it also allows developers to drag, drop, and pin multiple agent sessions side-by-side for easy code comparisons in real-time. It also introduces the Research Agent, accessible via /research. This is a read-only, depth-optimized tool that gets data from the web, local codebase, and GitHub to give you a Markdown report on complex APIs or unfamiliar code. Now, let’s talk about the integrated browser and some security enhancements. VS Code 1.123 features enhanced screenshot capture tools that allow for targeted Area Screenshots and Full Page Screenshots to send layout context instantly to AI chat. The address bar has also been revamped, supporting favorite pages and tab management. Finally, on the security front, this update introduces a safety-first two-hour delay on third-party extension auto-updates to safeguard against compromised or buggy releases. This release is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. If you have VS Code, keep an eye out for the update availability notification. If you still don’t have VS Code, you can get it here.
    • I'm hoping with the Surface Pro 12, I can use either USB-C for my Xreal One Pro glasses. With my Surface Pro 11 OLED X Elite, I have to plug them into the top port. The bottom port will power it, but nothing shows on the screen. Maybe it's my setting. When I plug in the glasses, I have it output only to the glasses. So maybe I need to turn on both displays with it in the top port, then switch the glasses to the bottom port and set it to output only to the glasses. And then hopefully Windows remembers the settings for either the top port and bottom port (one of the awesome features of Windows where it remembers the exact configuration when plugging in external monitors.
    • Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!
    • wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
