Oh we're still quite capable of f*cking it all up,and maybe Liverpool will be stupid enough to give it their best against us.

I would rather see Chelsea thump Liverpool even if it dents our title hopes :p

Nah of course a Liverpool win would be ideal for us, but I think Chelsea have played that well this season they deserve it. Hey it would even be nice to see Arsenal finally pick up something, but I don't think they'll play out their last games good enough to even get second, we'll see.

I think Martin O'Neil has done a god job at Villa. ?You could say he's done probably just about as much as he can with villa, unless he starts to freshen things up by either one or two signings or tactical (again would require player changes). ?

I'd put him on par with the likes of David Moyes and Roy Hodgeson, good managers who get good results from their sides, although Fulham have 41 points, they've also got far in Europe, ?so they could be higher without the troubles of Europe. ?If you compare O'Neil side with the likes of Stoke, Brum and Blackburn, you thing he's got the better squad.

I think a good club where he can build things would be his sort of job, other than that I think he should carry on at villa and get into Europe, realistically thats all thats can be done with villa. ?

Yeah Pompey gone down, ah well, it might mean any new owners has to do things properly, not like the others who painted over walls which were falling down.?

Do you think O'Neil should be sacked?

For taking Villa from the brink of relegation to a team consistently challenging for a European spot?

Yes, it would be 'stupid' for Liverpool to try and win a game of football against Chelsea :rolleyes:

If the season wasn't over last week, it is now. Unlucky for United, really feel for Berba, just United don't play to his style.

We've done well this season considering the losses of Tevez and Ronaldo though. I hope Fergie plays a few more young'uns in the final few games to get some more experience. Getting 2nd is priority now.

That is always a million dollar question! I would say that IF, a BIG IF, we make 4th spot he should be safe! There have already been murmurings about his position. Problem is that Villa need one or two real stars and are not known as a club that spends much of it's money! As far as I know Villa are pretty sound financially and I suppose they want to keep it that way! They are in about 25th place in terms of earnings worldwide. This does not always mean that much because all the top clubs have huge debts and they all show (Report) operating losses!

O'Neill with enough time and funds can definitely get far in Europa,seeing how you've beaten Chelsea,Liverpool and United this year you might have a good chance for the CL spot but I think Manchester City's cash will make it before you.Less 'slumps' in the league are a must though.

Yes, it would be 'stupid' for Liverpool to try and win a game of football against Chelsea :rolleyes:

I think the last thing a Liverpool fan wants to see is United winning the 19th,in that sense helping them would be 'stupid'.

Stupid to surrender a Champions League spot?

Imo they've already lost that long ago,5th place is the best they can do.

Forgot about the Man Utd game yesterday due to nice weather and spending time with the GF, but we remembered about 6pm and put MOTD on record as we were heading off for a BBQ.

Watched it when we got in (MOTD), all I have to say is LOL. Berbaflop better get his ass 4000 miles away from Old Trafford this summer, one of the worst signings for 30 million in ages. I don't care if he has skill, one of the laziest players ever, does not fit Man Utd/Premier League football.

Well done this season Chelsea, hopefully the double is yours! I give credit where due, I'm not a football fanboy nutcase like half of you in here :p

It was like he was playing good for Spuds to be noticed by a big club and after Utd signed him he put his feet up a bit and relaxed.. that is a big game coming for us soon.. history is on our side and we haven't lost a derby game for quite some time.. RvP is expected to return for the game so expectations are high..

He's baaaaaaaaaaaaaack :p :D

Robin Van Persie is back in the Arsenal squad for the North London derby at Tottenham.

The Dutch striker has been sidelined since mid-November with ankle ligament damage but is expected to feature at White Hart Lane on Wednesday night - albeit from the substitutes bench.

"He is in the squad for tomorrow's game," revealed Ars?ne Wenger at his pre-match press conference.

"It's a bit premature maybe [for Van Persie to start the game] so I will see but he is in the squad. I haven't picked the team yet.

"When I pick a player it means he is fit and sharp and has worked very hard. Of course he lacks match-practice but physically he is ready, he is fit."

Does 7th place get the europa league spot now? considering Portsmouth is banned from europeon football due to being in administration and chelsea will finish in the top 4? Meaning everyone in contention for that champions league spot is now 100% certain they will finish high enough for the europa (which is better than not being in europe at all)?

well I think it will be anyway but I saw Pompey have asked for special dispensation to get into Europe.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. In other words, you can choose the amount of Liquid Glass you want to see on your iPhone instead of an on/off switch, which would only give you two choices. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, sidebar icons keep their color. Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass. New customizations allow Liquid Glass to improve contrast and enable a more vibrant appearance. The new icons have sharper edges, which addresses an old complaint that iOS 26 icons look blurry at smaller sizes. The upgraded Liquid Glass, Apple said, is building on last year's design upgrades by "integrating additional layers of Liquid Glass directly into the artwork itself." Apple's upgraded design language is available on iOS 27, which is arriving this year with no changes to the list of supported iPhones.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      By cork1958 · Posted

      FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • U.S. delegation throws away all burner phones and gifts from China before takeoff

      See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By QuantumBigfoot · Posted

      He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
