looking forward to your opening day match? :p ...what a match to start the season with!

You mean Spuds v City? We don't play on the opening day (14th).. we play 'Pool on the 15th.. I hope we score a lot of goals otherwise with our keeping Torres and Co can tear our defence a new one.. unsure.gif

Breaking news now. O'Neil has resigned as Villa manager!

Link

It looks like it has something to do with the Milner deal.

He's a great manager.. just a guess but he's leaving coz they are not giving him transfer funds and he's losing all his best players.. he's a winner.. we need him at Arsenal..

I'm sure we can pull it off against Liverpool. We always start the season on a good note.

I hope so.. but you compare Liverpool signings to our signings.. who did we sign except Chamakh? Koscienly is untested at top level.. while they got some good players in.. plus our GK will be just as awful if not worse than last year.. even someone who was watching Arsenal play for the first tome could tell the defence and especially keeping is weak and we need a new keeper and AW didn't.. I'll be honest if we lose another season coz Wenger was too stubborn to get a GK then I'll be glad if he doesnt sign a new contract with us..

On top of that RvP and Cesc are not sure to start.. why give Cesc the rest? He hardly played for 2 hours in the entire tournament.. RvP played the whole WC so its understandable to rest him..

I'm also hoping a bit that we do lose.. and by a lot.. that can be a blessing in disguise if it finally makes Wenger see our defensive and keeping shortcomings..

Southampton Owner Markus Liebherr Dies.

[Via BBC News]

Southampton have announced that owner Markus Liebherr has died, aged 62.

Saints have not disclosed the cause of death of the Swiss businessman, who took over at St Mary's in July 2009 to lift the club out of administration.

A club statement read: "His passing will come as enormous shock to everyone but most particularly, of course, to his family and wide circle of friends.

"Our thoughts are with them at this time. To say he will be missed is an unmistakeable understatement."

More to follow.

We have got to have the thinnest defensive squad in the league.

Obviously you guys are going to lose Saturday. That's a given ;) But i think you guys are being wayyyyyyy to hard on your team. I picked them to win the entire thing. They stay healthy Arsenal is unreal. Only reason they lost last year was due to the injury bug.

Everyone suffers from injuries,Arsenal to a bigger extent but it's not luck you should blame.

Some of your players are so injury prone it's getting ridiculous.RvP should hardly be considered a starter after-all he averages 30 games per season,Lamps plays 50.I think the Barca boy got himself injured when you were already out of the title race.

As far as I'm concerned your inability to beat(or challenge) the other big boys is the main reason you didn't win(or got really close to)the title,injuries crippled you but they're not your biggest concern.

RIP Markus Leibherr, single handily saved our great club and put it back on the road to the top. Will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

Thought are with his family......

Bob Bradley has quit his job with the United States national team and is set to be named the new manager of Aston Villa, talkSPORT understands.

The USA coach has emerged as the favourite to succeed Martin O'Neill, who resigned earlier this week following a disagreement with chairman Randy Lerner about how to take the club forward.

Bradley took the USA to the second round of the World Cup in South Africa this summer and fellow American Lerner is said to be a big fan of the work he has done with his country's national team.

Bradley said after the World Cup: "I have said over and over that I am always excited about new and different challenges. Certainly coaching in Europe at some point is something that I would love to do."

The 52-year-old, who has previously managed MLS sides including DC United and Chicago Fire, will not be in England in time for Villa's opening Premier League fixture against West Ham tomorrow, but is expected to be unveiled as the new man at the helm at Villa Park next week.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      No, size is not the only selling point. I did not even remotely say that. Your claim was that "building your own will be faster and cheaper". This is false. You cannot build something close to that form factor with off-the-shelf parts. You can build a Mini-ITX PC and pay more, or something larger and pay less. But these are different market segments. It's apples and oranges.

      There is a default resolution setting in Settings > Display that can be changed with a click. You can also change the settings on a per-game basis. No CLI needed. Also, Steam has countless games that are not "[perpetual] alpha/beta games", so no need for the straw man. Plus you can use other stores as well. And console games (e.g. PS5) cost a fortune, which itself more than negates the price subsidy on the system, unless you plan on exclusively playing 1 or 2 games. It's true that you shouldn't buy a system that doesn't support the game(s) you want to play, but I think that's kinda obvious, and applies to every console as well as PC. I don't game in the living room and have no need of a Steam Machine, but there is a clear market segment that would find it useful.
    • RSS Guard 5.2.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      RSS Guard 5.2.0 by Razvan Serea RSS Guard is a simple (yet powerful) feed reader. It is able to fetch the most known feed formats, including RSS/RDF and ATOM. It's free, it's open-source. RSS Guard currently supports Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian. RSS Guard will never depend on other services - this includes online news aggregators like Feedly, The Old Reader and others. RSS Guard is developed on top of the Qt library and it supports these operating systems: Windows GNU/Linux OS/2 (eComStation) Mac OS X xBSD (possibly) Android (possibly) other platforms supported by Qt The core features of RSS Guard are: support for online feed synchronization via plugins, Tiny Tiny RSS (from RSS Guard 3.0.0). multiplatform, support for all feed formats, simplicity, import/export of feeds to/from OPML 2.0, downloader with own tab and support for up to 6 parallel downloads, message filter with regular expressions, feed metadata fetching including icons, simple Adblock functionality, customized popup notifications, Google-based auto-completion for internal web browser location bar, ability to cleanup internal message database with various options, enhanced feed auto-updating with separate time intervals, multiple data backend support, SQLite (in-memory DBs too), MySQL. is able to specify target database by its name (MySQL backend), “portable” mode support with clever auto-detection, feed categorization, drap-n-drop for feed list, automatic checking for updates, ability to discover existing feeds on websites, full support of podcasts (both RSS & ATOM), ability to backup/restore database or settings, fully-featured recycle bin, printing of messages and any web pages, can be fully controlled via keyboard, feed authentication (Digest-MD5, BASIC, NTLM-2), handles tons of messages & feeds, sweet look & feel, fully adjustable toolbars (changeable buttons and style), ability to check for updates on all platforms + self-updating on Windows, hideable main menu, toolbars and list headers, KFeanza-based default icon theme + ability to create your own icon themes, fully skinnable user interface + ability to create your own skins, “newspaper” view, plenty of skins, support for "feed://" URI scheme, ability to hide list of feeds/categories, open-source development model based on GNU GPL license, version 3, tabbed interface, integrated web browser with adjustable behavior + external browser support, internal web browser mouse gestures support, desktop integration via tray icon, localizations to some languages, Qt library is the only dependency, open-source development model and friendly author waiting for your feedback, no ads, no hidden costs. RSS Guard 5.2.0 changelog: Added: Feed auto-fetch can now also be delayed while Feral GameMode is active on Linux and startup auto-fetch is skipped when GameMode is already active. (#2265) WebEngine builds can now use RSS Guard generated proxy auto-config (PAC) rules so article/web browsing follows per-account and per-feed proxy settings more closely. (#2273) Generated PAC rules now also cover related subdomains and use Public Suffix List data, so feeds such as feeds.bbc.co.uk can also proxy resources from images.bbc.co.uk. (#2273) Standard feeds can now define extra proxy domains, useful when article images, stylesheets or other page resources are loaded from a CDN or another domain that should use the same feed proxy. (#2273) RSS Guard now asks for proxy credentials when a WebEngine page needs proxy authentication and can fill credentials from the current feed proxy when available. (#2273) Network settings again include an option to ignore all cookies, which clears stored cookies and prevents new cookies from being accepted. Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now individually ignore cookies while downloading feed data. Stored cookies can now be deleted from the Tools menu. Custom skin colors can now override the feed list article count color separately from feed titles, including a separate highlighted color. (#2275) Settings dialog can now search across available settings and highlight matching controls. (#1754) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now optionally be reported as broken when they are valid but contain no articles. (#2039) Standard RSS/ATOM feeds can now override the application-wide feed connection timeout per feed. (#1023) Tray icon can now use a custom background color and unread-count text color, with an option to reuse the generated icon as the application icon. (#1973) Support for more benevolent parsing of Gemlog entries (#2295). Article list can now show when an article was received by RSS Guard. (#947) Feed deep discovery now actually scrapes all links found in the website and checks if they are feeds or not. This greatly enhances usability of the deep discovery mode and discovers many more feeds than before. (#2306) Search boxes now show a small dot when the feed or article list is hiding some items because of active filtering. (#873) Articles now have a shortcut-assignable action to open the homepage of the feed they belong to. (#2060) Fixed: Parallel feed updates no longer crash when multiple update results are processed at the same time. (64cf521) Links in WebEngine articles opened from feeds such as Kill the Newsletter now open correctly instead of being swallowed by the embedded page. (#2272) Relative article URLs resolution was kinda broken. (#2282) Clicking article URL did not work when the URL had "fragment" set. (#2293) The default proxy setting now uses Qt/system default proxy behavior instead of forcing no proxy. (e0263ad) WebEngine article loading now keeps the current feed context, so feed-specific proxy credentials remain available while the article page loads.
