It's the club that gets punished because the club did a bad thing. It's ok to sympathise with the fans, but ultimately fans will support teams through the downs as well as the ups. If someone has a well paid job and their family enjoy a comfortable life but then that person decides to get drunk and drive home one night and gets arrested, which leads to the courts banning them from driving which in turn, leads to them losing their job and the family falling on hard times... Is it the court's fault that the family have to majorly adjust their lifestyle? No.

That's because they knew that FFP wouldn't really be applied to the big clubs. The only problem is that it turns out Everton aren't actually that big of a club in the grand scheme of things.

11 v 11 we win that game 100 times out of 100. Us receiving a red card with half the game to play was literally the only way they get anything from the game. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter so we move on.

I'm just watching the snooker. The referee is a stunner! Don't know her name. She has blonde hair and glasses.

You'd probably like "Spoons" by Grant Sharkey... It's a bit different, but give it a chance

5G NSA is 5G propped up by the 4G network. 4G+ and 5G NSA are basically the same thing. Effectively the speeds are limited to the capacity of the 4G network. Pure 5G, 5G SA, has only relatively recently started to be rolled out. In Northampton, for example, 5G SA was installed on the Vodafone network in one small corner of the town around July/August. I think I'm right in saying that the first 5G SA voice call (requiring both parties to be connected to 5G SA) only happened in September and that was on EE. It will be a while before every town and city will have comprehensive 5G SA coverage across all four networks. Rural locations... Who knows?

5G Standalone (proper 5G) should be double that speed. You're probably picking up 4G+ which is marketed as 5G. 5G SA is being rolled out now in some towns and cities. I'm on O2 and my phone says 5G, but it's not true 5G, it's 4G+ (technically 5G Non-Standalone)

He'd get more game time here, but his career thus far has largely been one of bench warmer. What are the Villa Park benches like? I can actually see this happening.

Lots of confusion and creative marketing going on around 5G. 'Proper' 5G requires a whole new network infrastructure and has only started to be rolled out from this summer, so coverage is very patchy. Fast forward 12 months and most people will see much more coverage as the roll out picks up pace. Existing '5G' networks are technically more like 4G+. Google "5G Standalone". It feels like the public have been conned a bit. Also, proper 5G will be expected to be worse indoors as the signal struggles to go through walls. Existing 4G and 2G signals will continue. 3G will be turned off over the next two or three years.

He didn't play for us, but did manage us during a dark period in our history. Good luck to him I say. And no, Christian Fuchs no longer plays for them.

I agree. 20 games into the season though... That's long enough to give a fair appraisal of Vardy and Iheanacho. Whilst both have had their moments, I'd say neither have particularly looked like dominating the league like many (including me) had hoped. Vardy's age gets him something of a pass. Kels, as we've seen throughout his time, is the absolute definition of a confidence player, and it's not quite working for him at the moment. Conclusion... For me, Vardy and Iheanacho haven't done enough to be automatic first and second choice. Daka is now well placed to challenge and push both, and with sensible game management, Cannon should start seeing more minutes too. Genuine competition for places should only be a positive for the team.

Enzo said that Daka's goal was his favourite in the game and feels for him that he hasn't played much. Said his attitude and effort in training has been first class but in a system that plays just one striker, being third choice behind Vardy and Iheanacho means minutes will be limited. I hope we see more of him now.

Yes, plenty of other options out there but if you're a paedophile and want to groom children, it's much easier to do so on Facebook than Signal or Telegram or even WhatsApp because of ease of access to your intended target. Meta have their own processes behind the scenes that can detect some of this activity (which is actually an awful lot) as the traffic goes through their servers, they can then report such matters to the relevant authorities. End to end encryption ends that overnight. The thing that bugs me is that this is a commercial decision portrayed as an ethical one. Ultimately the vast majority of people don't really understand what encryption is or how it works. They just see the word "encrypted" and think it sounds better than "unencrypted" so there is a danger that the public (who think they are consumers but are actually Facebook's product to sell) might leave the platform.

I so want Daka to do well today.

And it especially does my head in when people drive at 90 in pouring rain, in the dark, 2 weeks before Christmas. Death and serious injuries are bad enough any time of year, but I think it's worse when it's at Christmas. I wish people would take a little extra care this time of the year.

This is such a valid point. Most people don't use half of a phone's capability. A decent spec mid range phone does everything the vast majority of people actually use a phone for, and more.

I love stories like this! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-67602627

Apple are the greatest marketing firm in the world, ever.

I find it interesting that the championship is regarded as a very difficult league and "championship experience" has such a high perceived value, yet none of the top 4 were in the championship last season.

I think we have the superior squad but unfortunately of late, we've been sussed tactically. Difficult to beat, but quite easy to frustrate.

I won't go into too much detail here, but yes, the world is currently on the 'cool' side if its history and yes, the world is naturally warming. But there are a couple of things that are fairly unique to the current situation. One is the rate of the warming - it's amongst the fastest ever, aside from suspected asteroid/comet strikes or massive volcanic activity, and has been proven that human activity in the form of industrialisation is a huge contributing factor in the rate of change. Another issue when comparing temperature on a planetary scale is that human habitation on Pangea was zero. Time and time again, history has shown that rapid temperature change has caused extinction events throughout history. This might be the first time that humans have faced it (although something weird happened during the Younger Dryas around 12,000 years ago). Make no mistake, planet earth will be absolutely fine. Human civilization, or perhaps even the human species might not.

To be fair, Carl Pei was a bit more than an employee, he was one of the founders. Fwiw I am adjusting to the Nothing Phone. It feels more premium than my old OnePlus but I admit there were little things with OnePlus's Oxygen OS that I prefer to the Nothing OS. I am getting used to it though and 5 years of familiarity wasn't likely to seamlessly transfer to a new device.

The numbers of road users killed or seriously injured are generally decreasing every year. Car occupants account for about half of all road deaths every year with pedestrians being the next biggest group. Given the actual numbers of road users out there, car driving is by far the safest mode of transport and is orders of magnitude safer than cycling or riding a motorbike. We live in a village so my kids will realistically have to learn to drive and I'm fine with that. I can talk to them about driving safely and being a responsible driver and here's the important bit: I can also impress on them the dangers of getting into a car with an idiot driver. These four poor lads in Wales died in a car accident, but only one of them was driving, the other three were just passengers. And for clarity I'm not saying that the driver in that case was an idiot because I don't know the circumstances and some times bad things happen to good people. I have a mate who works on the serious collision team in the police which is an incredibly sad role (but very rewarding, he says). Most collisions that he deals with are caused by unnecessary risk taking or stupidity, like trying to do a 3 point turn on a blind bend on a country road, for instance. Risks are greatly increased if drink and/or drugs are used. Sometimes though, it is the case where perfectly innocent people suffer horrendous injuries or death through no fault of their own by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Using a road by whatever means of transport you choose carries risk. All you can do is take steps yourself to minimise the risk to yourself and others and hope that other road users do the same.

That is a poor sentence. He surely must have been given a fair amount of credit for a guilty plea. I find it quite perverse that he can be as obstructive as he could be when arrested (refusing breath test, refusing PIN for phone), yet once the evidence had been presented and it was clear that he was guilty with some quite aggravating factors, then he pleads guilty and receives a lesser sentence.
