@cheeaun Does the catch-up thing not show boosts from Guppe groups on purpose? Technical limitation? Would love to be able to group by group. 🙂

@spurs

Quick question: is it worth continuing with the #COYS stuff here on Masto?

The community seems to be shrinking while Bluesky continues to grow.

Does it matter?

What is it that Bluesky offers that Masto doesn't?

I've come to realise it's quality of connections on social media that matters rather than volume. So perhaps it being relatively quiet here is a plus?

It has been very quiet of late, though. Perhaps it's just because we've been playing badly?

And there's still a game left to play.

@soccer @epl

To help football fans find their communities, I've put together a spreadsheet listing (for now) #PremierLeague teams, their hashtags, and associated groups.

I've enabled comments. Would be great if you could let me know if anything is incorrect or if there's a preferred hashtag or group for your club community here on Mastodon and the wider #OpenSocialWeb.

Boosts much appreciated. Thanks!

Vermeeren update

"Atlético is also said to have made an opening bid of around 12 million euros, excluding a number of bonuses. An amount that doesn't even come close to what Antwerp hopes to get for Vermeeren."

"Atlético has since increased its bid, but so far the gap between what both clubs have in mind is still very large."

Antwerp want a loan back until summer if he is sold in January.

I know some people don't like hashtags. Particularly Twitter and possibly Bluesky users too. Some seem to be almost offended by them. But as metadata – a way of enhancing the portability of messages across networks, they sure are useful. Not only a means to opt in to specific messages, but also mute and opt out. They allow for quantification of messages based on tag/topic. They're much more reliable than keyword searches (but perhaps AI will change that).

Just noticed the @spurs group is going really well. Currently 4th most active behind some behemoths (nfl, palestine, and actuallyautistic).

@spurs

Interesting to note from Gianluca Dimarzio that Napoli “made new attempts for Dragusin during the day, increasing their offer several times. The player, however, seems determined to go and play abroad.”

Fans have assumed he'll go with Bayern, but I'm not convinced. If he was determined to go there, he would have right away, no? It seem he's making a genuine attempt at choosing the right path for him, which speaks well of his character.

ANNOUNCEMENT

I am thinking of ditching the @spurs group. The service hasn't been updated for 10 months and it is a bit unreliable. I'm afraid it'll be abandoned at some point.

Instead I am thinking we could use popular alternative https://a.gup.pe/ which is much more actively maintained and seemingly more popular.

I've already created the new group here:

@spurs // Ali Gold on Emerson Royal

“Tottenham defender Emerson Royal believes that life as a centre-back could be something he takes to as his career progresses.”

I really like Royal. He's not the best in any area but he works so hard, is still young, improving, and such a good energy to have around the club. For me he was second best player against Burnley after Porro.

@spurs // In the wake of news that Arteta has complained to PGMOL that Saka is being unfairly targeted by opposition players, BBC Football Daily asks, “Are players being protected enough?”

A salient discussion given how Spurs are by far the most fouled team in the league and in light of the damage sustained to Maddison's ankles and Bentancur's brutal injuries (among others).

If Ben Davies is injured, can you afford to lose Eric Dier this month on the balance of centre-backs?

Postecoglou: Yes.

@spurs // ”Various reports stating CITY are interested in signing PORRO”

A great endorsement of his quality, but nope, not having that. If we want to win anything, we can't be selling our best players to the likes of City.
