2 - 0 Sounds like it was a crazy goal. Also, who the **** decided to put Robbie Savage on the radio.

Robbie Savage is awesome, the ball hit him in the face once live on air! :rofl:

the ****? :blink:

One of the most bizarre football moments I've seen in a while, but the ref didn't stop play - didn't blow the whistle, and after Nani's handball Gomes picked up the ball to continue play - he had the ball in his possession and put it down again (right next to Nani no less); Tottenham learned a lesson the hard way - never assume play has stopped unless you hear the whistle.

(Y) the spurs fault on this one. Nani was the only one apparently who was paying attention.

I have to agree here, you always play to the whistle. If the ref doesn't whistle, you keep playing.

We were always told this when I was at school and after, when playing sports.

The goal is legitimate, and the fault is on the keeper for assuming there had been a foul. One of the most unusual sporting moments I have seen for some time though for sure :/ The question however (as it wasn't shown in that video) is did Nani actually handle the ball?

Nani wasn't really paying attention except when Fletcher told him to get up and put the ball in the net :p

Yes. It was the sort of "i've been fouled, i'm grabbing the ball" type of hand ball. But as Gomes picked it up while Nani had his hand on it, the ref played on.

Looking at the reply.. I find it disgusting how the ref clearly told every Spurs player to go away when he was talking to the assistant.. yet when Rio comes and stands there not only does he not tell him to go away but he also talks to him and lets him hear what he is saying to the assistant.. I find that very odd..

United certainly have their way with a lot of referees.

Cheating united SCUM!

Not really, the ref didn't blow, and United followed the rules to the letter. :p

Should blame the ref instead, and I was surprised why neither told Rio to sod off.

Liverpool scored a kind of similar one against Sunderland.

Having watched the game... First 15 minutes great. Next 60... average, last 15... Great again

Apart from the assist, Torres had an awful game. His touches where poor, his passing was poor, and we where in general poor going forward, the passing was way off and we didn't have the greatest cutting edge either. To sneak a win with how we played overall today I felt was excellent, but the standard still has to improve if we are to climb up the table, and keep in contention for Europe this season.

This not from a very reliable source but here goes anyway:

MANCHESTER CITY players want Roberto Mancini booted out... NOW.

Many of City's multi-millionaire under- achievers believe they will never challenge for the Premier League title with the Italian in charge. SunSport has been told some are guessing among themselves when Mancini - whose side are fourth in the Premier League, eight points adrift of leaders Chelsea - could be sacked. City suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at Wolves on Saturday during which Emmanuel Adebayor had an on-pitch row with Vincent Kompany.

A City source said: "There is hardly a player in the dressing room who has any time for Mancini. The place is a complete mess. "There are times when he tries to be a hard man but no one takes any notice. "Team spirit is falling apart because there is no respect for the manager and some players are even guessing when he could go. "They don't know who they want in, they just want Mancini out."

Another source confirmed: "The players don't like his confrontational style. "They're also baffled by him tactically - for example, they couldn't understand why he brought on defender Pablo Zabaletta for Emmanuel Adebayor instead of striker Jo at Wolves on Saturday." Yaya Toure and James Milner had a bust-up in the tunnel during last Sunday's 3-0 defeat by Arsenal. Toure's agent Dimitri Seluk says his client is angry at what he believes is a lack of winning mentality at City.Seluk said: "Yaya thinks there are some players, perhaps mostly those who have been there for a long time, who think that fourth place is already a big position that it is good enough to 'not lose' rather than to always win."

    • Microsoft further improving Windows 11 Taskbar with latest builds

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft further improving Windows 11 Taskbar with latest builds by Sayan Sen Microsoft has released new Windows 11 builds for users flighting the Experimental channels. The new builds are 26300.8758 for Windows 11 26H2, 28120.2374 for 26H1, and 29617.1000 for future platforms. There are improvements related to the Taskbar, File Explorer and more with the new update. The full changelogs are given below: First we have the build 26300.8758: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Taskbar] Taskbar customization just got easier. As we continue to make improvements to the Taskbar experience mentioned last month, we've introduced a dedicated Taskbar Size setting, making it simpler to find, understand, and personalize your ideal taskbar experience. UI showing the new Taskbar Size setting in Settings. We've also made refinements to the transitions between taskbar sizes for a smoother overall experience. [File Explorer] We've improved the reliability of thumbnail previews for cloud files in the Details pane. The pane has also been reorganized so file properties are easier to find and review at a glance. Fixed an issue where the OneDrive shortcut in File Explorer stops working when File Explorer is run in administrative mode. Fixed an issue where the confirmation dialog might display an internal Recycle Bin file name instead of the original file name when permanently deleting a file. [Sounds] Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. Up next we have build 28120.2374: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out This update includes a small set of general improvements and fixes [Mobile Device Settings] You can add and manage your mobile devices in Settings under Bluetooth & Devices > Mobile Devices. On this page, you can manage features such as using your device as a connected camera or accessing your device's files in File Explorer. [Remote Recovery Management] Added a recovery remote management plug-in to extend WinRE management capabilities for MDM providers. [Input] The emoji panel (Windows key + period (.)) now uses GIPHY as the GIF provider, delivering a smoother GIF browsing and sharing experience following the deprecation of the Tenor API. Finally we have the changelog for Windows 11 build 29617.1000: Changes and improvements gradually being rolled out [Windows Update] As announced in the Windows Update announce blog, we are now bringing a new unified update experience to reduce the number of reboots you see per month. We are starting by coordinating driver, .NET, and firmware updates to align with the monthly quality update, reducing the update experience to a single monthly restart. See the blog for more information. [Windows Magnifier] Magnifier now gives you more control over how you zoom. You can type an exact zoom percentage directly in the magnifier toolbar to land on precisely the level you need. We've also added preset step increments (5%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 150%, 200%, and 400%) to the Settings dropdown, so you can jump to common levels in a single click. Whether you need a subtle boost or a dramatic close-up, Magnifier adapts to how you want to zoom. ../images/zoom.png Enter an exact percentage or jump to preset steps —5% up to 400%. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Magnifier. [Accessibility] We're introducing screen tint, a new accessibility setting that applies a color overlay across your entire display, softening its intensity so it's easier on your eyes throughout the day. If bright, saturated screens leave you with tired or sensitive eyes by the end of a long session, screen tint can help. ../images/screentint.png Screenshot showing UI for screen tint in Accessibility, with color presets and a strength slider. To get started, open Settings > Accessibility (or press WIN + U) and look for screen tint under the Vision section. From there, you can: Pick from six preset colors or choose a custom color of your own. Adjust the tint strength slider from a subtle wash to full intensity. Night light warms your display to reduce blue light that can interfere with sleep. Screen tint reduces overall screen intensity to ease eye fatigue and light sensitivity during the day. They tackle different problems and you can use both at the same time, one working on warmth and the other on intensity. Note that turning on screen tint will disable color filters, and vice versa. If you currently rely on color filters, you might need to keep screen tint turned off. Feedback: Share your thoughts in Feedback Hub (WIN + F) under Accessibility > Narrator. [Voice Access] Voice Access now supports Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), and Korean (South Korea). [Audio] Continuing our work on improving Sound Settings, we've made a few more updates in this build: We've adjusted the description text for the Allow option in properties for audio devices to include the current state of the device, to improve the clarity of the text and the purpose of the button actions. "Listen to this device" is now available in properties for audio devices, so you don't need to enter Control Panel for this functionality. [Multiple Desktops] Improved explorer reliability when switching between multiple desktops. [Storage] We've updated the dialog when creating a Dev Drive to now support specifying the size in GB instead of only MB. This has also been added when changing the size of volumes under Settings > System > Storage. [Personalization] This update improves color selection accuracy when adjusting your accent color to match your wallpaper when automatic accent color selection is enabled in Personalization settings. This update improves wallpaper persistence reliability across restarts and upgrades, including better support for large-resolution wallpapers and other scenarios to prevent solid color wallpaper fallback. [Display and Graphics] Improves the reliability and persistence of applying color profiles. You can view the official blog posts here (link1, link2, link3) on Microsoft's site.
