Game of the day is just about to start, I don't remember Premier League ever having a match this late on weekends? Probably some TV rights stunt.

yeah, that is what I thought as well
they are not playing at this time on weekends, probably TV rights, agree

and it could be seen that they are not use to play in late hours on weekend, Liverpool is trying, but nothing more than that
poor with goals in all matches this evening, all leagues
Yeah, it's related with TV rights. There is several games per season played on late Saturday slot. I think it was regular thing during Covid seasons when stadiums were empty.
So far LFC looking a bit disappointing, but maybe it's not surprising, considering that they had not easy at all game against Villarreal this week.

Today derby between Benfica and Porto was played. In general it's meaningless game because there won't be changes in first 4 positions. Benfica really wanted to win and pushed hard, even scored a goal from offside. But in the end Porto responded with goal in transition and won game.
Now Sporting is playing at Portimonense, game just started.
And I haven't paid attention, buut Gil Vicente have good chances to qualify to UEFA Conference league from 5th place. I think this club have never played in UEFA Cups, even in qualifying stages.

Anyone watching Brighton v Man United? it's one of the most one-sided games i've watched in the PL this season and probably in the 21/22 of european football as well... What a circus LOL Erik ten Hag, what have you done? You're gonna fight for relegation next season 😂
Don't watch it and when I saw score, I had to check twice to be sure that's not mistake. Why such things always happens with MU? Ok, you can lose to Brighton, but get completely outplayed and destroyed 4:0 - you simply have to not respect yourself.
Being Barca fans is difficult this season, but that's just one season, while MU fans have to experience for almost decade after Fergie era. And I think that joining MU from Ajax can be considered as step back in Ten Hag's career.

I have seen some crazy usernames here, but now when you asked, nothing comes to my head fast. I actually would like to have funny or strange username, but I'm not so creative and some good ideas come when it was too late already.
blue Snow: I always thought that snow is white. I just hope that we don't have user with name yellow Snow Cheesy.
sandy-is-fine: ok, thanks for informing us.
Use Your Brain: well, not bad suggestion
The-One-Above-All: when you have too good opinion about yourself
bonesjonesreturns: ok, thanks for letting to know
H8bussesNbicycles: yeah, it's troll account, but that's quite creative.
Slow death: that's not something what I would like to experience.

There was this user named "Hard Facts"; it's funny not because of the username per se, but because his username is a 100% opposite of his posts. His name was Hard Facts but his posts were crappy opinions.
Trolls which is usually alt accounts is quite creative and their names is often opposite of their actions.

I honestly don't like the time of the Miami Grand Prix, although for my country it is in the afternoon, I am very used to having Formula 1 in the morning so I really miss this time.
It's evening here in Europe and I prefer such time rather than morning. I really hate to get up early on weekends for Australian or Japan races. Though, it's good that I don't have to go to work next Monday, so, it's not a problem if race will be delayed into the night because of red flags or something similar Cheesy.

Thank you for the reminder jeremypwr. The pool has been going on really competitively. I'm not saying this just for the sake of conversation now of course. I enjoy watching the races a lot. I hope that you share the same feelings as me. Even though I see Red Bull a little ahead this week, I want to prioritize Ferrari for my picks as I'm a Tifosi. Smiley
Pool is really competetive. I'm watching F1 almost whole my life and I bottom last on the table, despite that some other folks don't follow F1 that much. I must admit that's very difficult to make predictions for F1. In football there is few possible outcomes, while in F1 there is so many factors which can ruin your prediction.

Putinist telegram channels are ablaze with the newest "proof" that Poland is planning to invade Ukraine - Andrzej Duda saying that there will be no border between the two countries. Poor clowns can't comprehend that most of Europe doesn't have borders... and those countries achieved this incomprehensible borderless arrangement without invading each other. Some lessons to be learned there, if Russian chauvinists were capable of learning.
And Russians probably can't understand how Ukrainians can travel free without any visa across whole EU/Schengen Area, while Russians aren't welcomed there.

It seems like a couple of times I gave a link to a specific video in Kadyrov's telegram as a prooflink. Or do you seriously think that Chechens know how to deepfake when they shoot a video on the selfie camera of their smartphone?
It's not about deepfakes or something else. My point that's Kadyrov TikTok Telegram is one of many not reliable Russians sources. Quite fresh example about liberated village, which actually was under LPR control since 2014 and it's far from front line. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this stuff was posted on Kadyrov telegram.

Quote
The policy of Moldova can be called pro-Romanian, up to the plans for the Moldovan-Romanian union. Moldova in the issue of Ukraine is more like a proxy for Romania, plus for it it is a chance to resolve the issue with Transnistria.

Of course, Poland has the most legally justified claims to the western part of Ukraine. In fact, Ukraine voluntarily abandoned six western regions in favor of Poland when, in 2015, it signed a joint declaration condemning the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, according to which these territories that previously belonged to Poland were transferred to Ukraine. It is a pity that you did not know about it, well, now you know.

In addition to Poland, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia and Belarus also have territorial claims to Ukraine for historical reasons. There is an opinion (although I do not adhere to it) that Russia deliberately does not force the complete liberation of Donbass, expecting Poland to invade Western Ukraine. And even provokes Poland to such an invasion through the efforts of the Foreign Intelligence Service.
You're right, I didn't know about it. Could you share some links to read about it because I can't anything about Ukraine abandoning western regions in favor of Poland.
Anyway, this agenda that Europe is planning to share Ukraine in parts looks more than ridiculous. Following such logic we can say that other countries have interests in Russian territories like Konigsber or Karelia and NATO trainings near to it is preparations to invade it.

Quote
And that was Russia's best offer for Ukraine. Ukraine had to agree, it was possible to save the lives of tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers and the Kherson region. Russia's next proposal will be even worse.
So, we came to conclusion that Russia isn't able to negotiate. Because giving ultimatum isn't offer to negotiate.
2407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Sportsbet.io ⚽ Spanish La Liga ⚽ Football Pool Discussion Thread on: May 06, 2022, 06:44:29 PM
I've been thinking for long what result to put on Levante - Real Sociedad game. Levante recently had some good performances, despite that it doesn't reflects very well on results and now every game for them is do or die if they want to stay in league. Meanwhile Sociedad still fighting for places in UEFA cups, maybe even in Champions league, but their recent results isn't good. After all I decided to go with 1:1 draw, unless I will make last minute change. But since I already jinxed, most likely I will get 0 points for this game Cheesy.

I also look forward to Monday when Atletico will not give Real the guard of honor lol
Damn, you confused with Monday, but then I realized that in your time zone it will be Monday, while in Europe it still will be Sunday Cheesy.
2408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Semifinals! on: May 05, 2022, 11:56:22 PM
I can assume that Roma will be the favorite in the final and will most likely take the title (if you can call winning the Conference League that way  Grin Mourinho is used to fighting for titles much bigger than this one).
I wouldn't call Roma as obvious favorites, I would rate their chances 60/40 in the final. I don't any big advantages of Roma.
There is no need to lie - Mou career is going down, but winning Conference league is important for him to show that he is still capable to achieve something.

I don't find the purpose of this cup but I'm happy for Roma.

This edition, the first one it will be the only one people will remember in the following years.
Only purpose of this tournament is money probably. Any way, group stage of Conference league isn't most exciting thing to watch, but from later playoffs stages it's not that bad, especially when some names isn't worse than we had in Europa league. But this tournament always will be in shadow of Europa league and probably only mainly fans of teams which participate in Conference league watch it.

Your arrogant snobbery looks funny. Impress naive girls with speculative links to Wikipedia, which anyone can edit, for a man with a beard, this is an unreliable source.
Says person who quotes Russian Defence Ministry, Kadyrov telegram and other Russian помойка as reliable sources.

Ukraine can immediately end this armed conflict at any time by signing an act of unconditional surrender. And she will have enough territories and human resources for a long happy life.
For a long happy life until Russia will come to take another slice of Ukraine...

I think we will soon see how events will develop in the West of Ukraine, because until the complete liberation of Donbass this is not a paramount issue and there are many interested parties, including Poland, Romania, Hungary and even Moldova. I'm not even sure that the West of Ukraine is now subordinate to Kyiv.
And how do you imagine such thing? All these countries sharing Ukraine into parts? It would be interesting to hear from your perspective what signs shows that it can happen. Because for me it looks like nothing more than poor Russian propaganda attempt to show that Ukraine is country without history and without future.
Most fun part about Moldova. They aren't capable to solve Transistria question and here they're cming to take slice of Ukraine.

Quote
I understand what unconditional means. Ukraine has already demonstrated a complete inability or unwillingness to negotiate, so I think a peace treaty between Russia and Ukraine will be concluded not as a result of successful negotiations, but as a result of the complete defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
all thingsshows about Russia unwilingness to negotiate. Basically Russia gave ultimatum to Ukraine to surrender, give whole Donbass and Luhansk, forget about joining NATO, ''denazify'' themselves, not matter what it means and they don't show any intentions to negotiate.

Not a single person from this list has asked me to remove him from this list.
Nobody applied!
Everyone knows that they got on the list rightly.
People from the list can be conditionally divided into 2 categories: active, who write a lot and support the war, and semi-active, who either send merits to active people for the war or wrote a couple of messages related to one way or another to support the war.
Nobody didn't asked to remove them because probably they don't care about it.
As you already said, nobody aren't going to ban them. Probably use of trust system is more apropriate here. I see that you sent negative trust ratings to some people, but I suggest you to add refernce links to it with proofs that your feedback would look more seriously.
About last part of your post, @Pmalek already explained it.
2411  Other / Meta / Re: Would you like to access Bitcointalk though a console? on: May 05, 2022, 09:53:32 PM
I would give a try once or twice, but probably that's all. This stuff just isn't for me. I'm trying to imagine that console browser is far from most convenient ways to use forums. And also, visual part is important for me.
Even when travelling, it doesn't looks like good alternative. If I would have very slow intenet connection or very limited data abroad, I probably rather would use WAP version of Bitcointalk.

Fun fact: in my slightly drunk state, when I saw the title I internally uttered "why dafuq would I want to access Bitcointalk on a gaming console."
I'm not even drunk now and I also first thought about gaming console Cheesy

I said it already, but I hate that all semifinals of both leagues is played at the same time. So, I only saw conference league games on 2nd screen, so, I didn't saw it very well.
After such high scoring game between Marseille and Feyenoord, today it was difficult to expect goaless draw. Basically, Feyenoord were saving result, but they didn't parked a bus. Marseille had more moments to score, but it wasn't enough.
Solid 1st half of Roma earned them place in the final. After scoring a goal they didn't let Leicester to make anything dangerous. In 2nd half Foxes were more dangerous, but it's difficult to say that they had many good moments to score.
So, after all, names of Conference League finalists isn't worse at all than we have in Europa league.
2413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Semifinals! on: May 05, 2022, 09:04:38 PM
So, after all in final we have two teams that nobody saw them reaching it. Before season who could predict that Rangers and Eintracht will be in the final.
That early Cresswell red hard basically killed West Ham. They keep fighting even after conceded goal thill the end, but in general Eintracht controlled things.
Solid stuff from Rangers. 2 relatively early goals let to send Leipzig to knockout. In 2n half Leipzig played better and equalized aggreagate score, but Rangers were able to respond and achieved deserved win
2414  Other / Meta / Re: The situation with Ukraine and the accounts that supported the war. on: May 04, 2022, 11:33:23 PM
OP, I understand your position, but it's difficult to expect people will get banned on Bitcointalk because they support war. Freedom of speech is big thing here, even if this speech is lies, nonsense or support of war. I went through Bitcointalk rules and closest thing related to support of war is this:
8. No threats to inflict bodily harm, death threats.
If you have proofs about people breaking this rule, you should report them.
I take a look on your list and I see that you included some well known Bitcointalk trolls. They always go against system and I don't think it's worth to pay much attention to them, Some of others is Russians - well, it's difficult to expect something different than support of war from most of them.
But few people on your list, I'm not really sure how they support war.

(again they have a reason for the war).

And may I ask what the reason is? In your opinion.
Yeah, I also would like to hear reasons which would justify this war. Because in more than 2 months of war I still can't find arguments which would justify it.
2415  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The world of sport reacts to the Russian invasion of Ukraine on: May 04, 2022, 11:14:32 PM
That is not entirely true. The vast majority of athletes can still compete, just not under the Russian flag. It is only fair when you look at what their country has been doing in Ukraine. The Russian nationals should only be accepted as neutral athletes or neutral teams. I just don't think they deserve to compete for Russia.

I don't think that vast majority of athletes still can compete under neutral flag. From main sports only tennis comes to my head. And still, not in every tournament, like they're already banned from Wimbledon. Maybe cycling too, I'm no sure.
They still can represent foreign sports teams in football, basketball, hockey and so on, but that's different thing.
From what I noticed, Belarus don't get such strict sanctions like Russia, what's probably unfair, considering that this country become military base of Russia to attack Ukraine. For example, UEFA didn't banned Belarus national teams and clubs from their competitions.

That's something incredible. City probably already saw themselves in final, but then Real makes comeback in few final minutes of game. Just classic Real, how many times in last decade we saw them doing such things. And these goals from Real was big shock for City, they failed to make something really dangerous doing whole extra time.

Not sure it was Loris Karius or Geronimo Rulli... First goal that he conceded was so cheap - between legs. Third goal, I'm not sure what he was doing when one defender was still remaining.
Anyway, it was really watchable game, not like 1st leg. Liverpool played such poor 1st half, they barely went out of defense. When Villarreal were close to make comeback, Liverpool finally wake up. Solid performance in 2nd half.
It should be pity for Villarreal to get eliminated after all they did, but after all, Liverpool were better and deserved to reach final.
So, we will have another English final or replay of 2018 final...
2419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Euroleague 2021/22 Season on: May 02, 2022, 10:25:10 PM
Yes, Bayern Munich made a big surprise already and if they managed to get the series, it will be really really huge. In the last game, they stopped Barça at 52 points for the whole game. That was really impressive. It can be argued that it is because Barça's poor performance but I want to give credit to Bayern. Compare to Bayern and especially budget-wise, it would be a no match between the size of the two teams. So, really big respect to Bayern. Although winning the series seem like a hard nut to crack for them.

On the other hand, Real indeed had any problem against Maccabi at all. Which I found quite surprising. Maccabi is Maccabi and they are almost always very strong in the euroleague. Real had relatively very easy series against them.
These low scoring, defensive games between Barca and Bayern isn't that eye-catching to watch, especially after switching from Monaco - Olympiacos games.But so far it worked for Bayern. Barca is favorites still, but their players might be under pressure, nobody didn't expected that 5 games will be needed.
For Maccabi best what they could achieve was winning one game, butthey were far from it. After all, they reached playoffs after long break. I think they never reached it in current competition format when all teams play each other.

Fulham confirmed championship title today after amazing match they scored seven goals, and Mitrovic scored two of them and now he has 43 goals in Championship!
Home fans will be happy after last match in home stadium Craven Cottage and last match they can rest some players against Sheffield Utd.
So, Fulham is back to EPL to return to Championship after one season as they usually do Cheesy. Or they simply switch their place with Norwich each season Cheesy.
Anyway, it was impossible to see such big win coming. After all, Luton is not team from bottom, they're fighting for spot in playoffs. And Mitrovic 43 goals - ok, Championship have way more rounds than most leagues, but still, it's achievement which it wil be difficult to repeat for someone.
In tomorrow's game I would like to see Nottingham win - it's time for this legendary team to reaturn to EPL. Though, they're not favorites. Wil tune in  1st half to watch before Champions league.
