Uefa has warned ministers that England could be excluded from the European Championship it is co-hosting in 2028 over "concerns" that a planned independent football regulator could lead to "government interference" in the sport.

A bill to establish a body to oversee the top five tiers of the men's game in England was reintroduced in July.

The UK government has said the football watchdog will "protect clubs" by "ensuring their financial sustainability".

But in a letter sent to Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy and seen by BBC Sport, Uefa general secretary Theodore Theodoridis wrote: "We do have concerns remaining... as normally football regulation should be managed by the national federation.

Honestly, I will never wrap my head around how people can happily bring infants on any flight where you can expect people to try and sleep, it's incredibly lucky if they don't spend some of it screaming their heads off—I would be mortified if my choices were preventing hundreds of people from sleeping. But I'm not going to rant too hard about that.

Why on earth hasn't any airline started marketing adult-only flights?

It seems like a complete no brainer to me, I would choose it every time and pay extra for it.

Hey, I've been trying to subscribe to [email protected] for a couple of days now and know the drill about searching it first and waiting for it to sync, but it doesn't seem to be doing the job.

It looks like other lemmit.online communities seem to work fine, but this one seems to stubbornly refuse to show up.

Is there something I'm missing here?

UPDATES BELOW

So I browse on the desktop using the mlmym/old.lemmy client (e.g. http://old.lemmy.world) because old habits die hard.

One of the many things I found myself missing from RES & Reddit was the ability to customise the community bar at the top of the page to contain some links to my favourite communities. I had a spare minute this morning to throw together a userscript for just that:

Here's a pastebin with the script. Create a new userscript in tampermonkey (or whatever userscript plugin you use), drop the code in, change the array of communities at the top to be the ones you want prepending to the list, and you should be good.

Make sure to add the server suffix to any communities from other instances and if you want to use this on another instance other than lemmy.world, just change the match rule in the userscript header comment.

I didn't host on greasyfork as I'm probably not going to make any further changes, and I'd need to come up with something a bit more sophisticated than an array of communities. I'll update this post if I ever change my mind on that

Update

So I guess I wasn't happy with leaving it alone:

Here it is on greasyfork https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/474756-lemmy-mlmym-community-bar-customisation

I added localStorage and a simple config GUI to configure the list of favourites now, no reordering yet (without just removing and re-adding in a different order), but I imagine I'll end up adding that in time

Update 2

And another update:

I've just updated GreasyFork with 0.3

• Added reordering
• Added background fade and background click to close
• Added favourite/unfavourite button to the community sidebar
