Voronin and Babel are pretty much fringe players at the moment anyway so I don't think they would be such a big loss if they where sold.

Yeah but you won't get a great deal for them I heard ?1m for Voronin which is a bit small but then again he was a free if I remember correctly.

I thought Martin O'Neill was a bit over the top on his sides performance as there weren't many chances. Only ones that come to mind are Downings free shot and Carew's header that went narrowly wide. Then again Liverpool didn't have many either and the goal came from 2 bits of luck, annoying thing is it could be a turning point in the season when all it was was 2 bits of luck :p

Luck tends to even itself out over the course of the season, anyone accusing Liverpool of being excessively lucky just needs to look back at the Sunderland game, and bring the word "Balloon" to the forefront of their mind.

That it does, it's just annoying to see a point in the season where Liverpool may well sort themselves out and it was nothing of their own doing :p

The CL spot race is back to being wide open!

It was never off tbh. I am expecting Spurs / Villa to go through bad patches and lose points in relation to City/Liverpool, and so 4th place is between City and Liverpool imo. If City get some more players in and get a team sorted, it may well be City in the CL next season and not Liverpool.

Good clubs always pull themselves out of bad patches eventually, now it will just be a case of maintaining the momentum and starting to push for the CL places. I feel if we can keep our form up then we are on paper at least one of the stronger sides involved in the push for 4th place, but as it stands, so many teams are losing points in unusual places that trying to predict the eventual outcome feels like a game of russian roulette at the moment.

Personally, if I had a choice, if it where not Liverpool to get the 4th place, I would like to see it go to Tottenham or Villa rather than Man City, purely because, like Chelsea I have a problem with the means that they achieve their success.

Something tells me this will be one of the closest CL qualification races yet :D

I would like to say Villa but just look at this year they didn't do well in Europa League and it would be sad for them to go out in early stages! but then being a West Ham support anyone other then Spurs would be good :p

I don't really class anyone as rivals in my mind to West Ham other then maybe QPR or Millwall :p

I do. Bolton. I hate Bolton. Can't really explain why :laugh: I think we lost to them a few seasons ago and that sealed our doom to the championship. Generally don't like their play style either :p

One result over the course of a championship doesn't seal a team's doom on its own :p seems like a strange reason to hate a team, but I agree with you on one point, bolton aren't a pretty team to watch xD

haha tell that to the ICF (Inner City Firm) :p

Personally I don't even class firms as real fans, they just use football as an excuse for violence.

It's not real hate but more so dislike. I know they didn't personally walk us out of the premiership but it seemed that defeat sort of deemed us useless and not of premiership quality and it really stuck with me. Worst feeling is watching your club get relegated :(

So if Portsmouth are declared bankrupt, what happens next? I am a bit unclear on the FA rules (and law in general) on this

think it starts with 9 points deduction but then if they are wound up (which I highly doubt will happen) they will just disapear from the EPL I suppose...never seen it happen.

    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups

      By zikalify · Posted

      Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups by Paul Hill Fears that increasing government control of social media risks regulatory capture by the biggest social media firms were raised again recently. Bluesky’s chief operating officer said in an interview that social media bans for children and tighter regulations for social media firms risk creating a world where there are only a few social media platforms run by companies with the deepest pockets. Regulations on social media firms have been very lax since they appeared for mainstream users in the 2000’s. This gave Meta, Snapchat, and Google time to build up their user bases and get entrenched, with Meta being the most successful. Now that Meta has succeeded, it has been attempting regulatory capture. By pushing for more regulations of social media, Meta hopes to make it more difficult for rivals to challenge it. For its part, it doesn’t need to worry about the cost of regulation because it has a lot of money to spend, whereas startups do not. Speaking to CNBC, Rose Wang, Bluesky’s chief operating officer, said: “I support the protection and the safety of youth, the question that we have then is at what cost, because essentially what I’m scared of is in the long term, we’re headed to a world where there’s about three to five platforms, and extreme heavy regulation of those platforms, and basically the whole compliance teams of these platforms are 10 times the size of our entire team. So, basically, we’re living in a world where it’s almost impossible for smaller entrants to come in and build healthier spaces. These platforms have led to a place where the bottom line is the thing that drives what they do... so I understand why governments have to step in and regulate, because the platforms have done nothing right.” She said that while she is not against regulation, there needs to be more channels between the small to mid-sized players and regulators to help protect them. She says that big tech players, on the other hand, “who we know are circumventing regulation,” need to be regulated. Essentially, the Bluesky position is one of nuance, rather than absolutes. While Bluesky’s proposal may preserve competition in the social media space, it still doesn’t address the massive privacy implications these age verification measures introduce, such as handing over sensitive identity documents to access age-gated content.
