City at least avoided a sixth consecutive defeat but the manner in which they blew a commanding advantage will do little to settle nerves in and around the club ahead of Sunday’s trip to Premier League leaders Liverpool. City appeared in total control after a brace from Erling Haaland and another from Ilkay Gundogan had them three up seven minutes into the second half, but after Anis Hadj Moussa got one back in the 75th minute, City imploded. “It is what it is, difficult to swallow right now,” Guardiola said. “The game was good, we played well, we scored three and could have scored more. We do everything and then we give away, especially the first one, and after we are not stable enough to do it. “It’s not about no run or no commitment, but football you have to be [switched on] in certain moments to do it.” Santiago Gimenez got Feyenoord’s second in the 82nd minute and David Hancko got a dramatic equaliser in the 89th, making City the first team in Champions League history to have led 3-0 in the 75th minute of a match and fail to win. Some City fans, who suffered through Saturday’s 4-0 humiliation at home to Tottenham, made their frustrations known at the final whistle. “The last game against Tottenham, 0-4, the supporters were there, applause,” he said. “They are disappointed of course and we understand it. “People come here not to remember success of the past, they come here to see the team win and perform well. I am not the one when the situation is bad or good [to say] what they have to do. “These supporters, when we go away, our fans are amazing, travelling. There is nothing to do and they are right to express what they feel.” Guardiola’s own frustrations were apparent given the number of scratches visible on his head after the match. The Catalan had arrived at the ground with a cut on his nose, which he said he had caused himself with a long fingernail. City now face a trip to Anfield to face the Liverpool side of former Feyenoord boss Arne Slot, whose named was chanted by the visiting fans during the match. “Everybody knows the situation, I don’t have to add absolutely anything,” Guardiola said. “We are going to train tomorrow, recovery and prepare the next game. Day off and we have two or three days to prepare that and go for it. We will learn for the future and what has been has been. “It will be a tough season for us and we have to accept it for many circumstances.” Feyenoord’s late fightback brought jubilant scenes in the away end. “I think if you’re from Feyenoord it was an unbelievable evening,” head coach Brian Priske said. “A strange game which ends 3-3 which is an unbelievable result for us and also remarkable in the essence of being 3-0 down in minute 75 away from home against still, for me, the best team in the world. “Normally we don’t celebrate draws but this one is a little bit special.”HENDERSON, Nev.

Man City collapse ‘difficult to swallow’ – Pep Guardiola

Niagara Region councillors inched closer to finalizing the municipality’s 2025 spending during Thursday’s budget committee meeting. After a series of amendments, many of which crashed and burned — and a heated discussion of the Niagara Regional Police budget — councillors accepted several staff recommendations that helped reduce the overall budget increase to 9.77 per cent on a levy to taxpayers of nearly $538 million. The percentage increase could fall slightly, pending the outcome of about $4.6 million in program changes councillors asked staff to reconsider. The plan to complete the Region’s 2025 budget and pass enabling bylaws by next Thursday remains intact. The full council meeting on that date will begin 30 minutes early to consider the staff report on program changes. Councillors also avoided a stalemate with the police services board by approving its $213-million NRP budget with a 13.18 per cent increase. On Nov. 21, council had asked the police board to find another $1.076 million in savings. The police board rejected the request a week later in writing. “The board came back and said, ‘too bad, we think this is what we need, and that’s that’,” Region Chair Jim Bradley said. “I don’t agree with that approach.” Bradley said he didn’t object to adding 33 front-line officers. Still, he questioned the police need for staff dedicated to social media, graphic design and recruitment in such a challenging budget climate. Fort Erie Coun. Tom Insinna, a retired RCMP officer, proposed sending the budget back to the police services board with an almost $4-million cut, which he said would have reduced the overall regional budget increase to 9.55 per cent. “I believe we will be providing sufficient funding to ensure the police services board can comply with the adequate and effective policing with which they are charged. The council needs to decide: do our residents need a Ferrari, or can we make do with a Chevy? I would suggest with the state of our economy, the Chevy will do.” Port Colborne Mayor Bill Steele took umbrage with Insinna’s Ferrari comment. “I am insulted by my learned friend, Coun. Insinna,” Steele said. “By any means, this is not a Ferrari. “The chief was adamant — these aren’t things that would be nice to have. These are needs with the increase in crime coming down from the GTA. It is not going to get better. I believe it’s going to get worse. We’ve seen it getting worse.” Steele, a member of the police board, suggested councillors reject Insinna’s motion and avoid “going back and forth like a ping-pong ball.” If the motion passed, Steele said the Region and the board could jointly file for a budget dispute resolution. “I think that’s probably the most economical way to move forward with this,” Steele said. When a municipality and a police services board can’t agree on a budget, either side can appeal the decision to the Inspector General of Policing. The Ontario Civilian Police Commission (OCPC) was used to handle disputes. The province dissolved the commission and replaced it with the Inspector General of Policing on April 1, when it introduced a new legislative framework governing policing in Ontario, the Community Safety and Policing Act. History has shown municipalities lose most appeals because arbitrators have traditionally not considered its ability to pay. The process is expensive regardless of the outcome. The two sides are represented by teams of lawyers and well-paid senior staffers, with taxpayers footing the bill for both sides as they prepare and present their respective cases. In 2014, regional councillors considered building a $600,000 war chest — with yearly contributions of $200,000 — so council could stand its ground against the growing police budget, most of which goes to salaries and benefits. The consideration came in the wake of an arbitrator’s award in 2013 that gave the police a pay increase of 3.05 per cent retroactive to January 2012. Councillors voted down Insinna’s motion, which effectively approved the police budget. During Thursday’s meeting, several changes helped keep the overall budget increase below 10 per cent. The changes included a $7.5-million reduction (1.55 per cent) due to changes related to Bill 23, the Building More Homes Faster Act, and Bill 185, the Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act. The province introduced Bill 185 partly because of the feedback it received on the changes to municipal budgeting wrought by Bill 23. Councillors also voted to fund a new Welcome Streets pilot project in St. Catharines for $128,000. The peer-to-peer outreach project was a last-minute addition by St. Catharines Mayor Mat Siscoe. Siscoe said Welcome Streets dovetails with the Region’s emergency declaration on homelessness, mental health and opioid addiction. Similar peer-to-peer outreach programs have improved downtown community safety in Brampton, Ottawa, Belleville and Sudbury. “My hope is that a project like this may allow us to decrease our reliance on police services and a relatively small cost, which is why I’m identifying the Taxpayer Relief Package as the funding source,” Siscoe said. “This is a pilot project. I know the (St. Catharines) Downtown Association is enthusiastic. “If we want to see an improvement in people’s willingness to go into those areas of town where we currently have problems, which are the areas identified in the proposal — the Queenston (Street) area, the Fairview Mall area and the downtown area.” Most of the budget changes approved Thursday are additions to staff, some of which are temporary. All are aimed at bolstering the Region’s pursuit of its strategic initiatives. The new positions include, for example, an IT security compliance and risk specialist, a debt analyst to help modernize the finance department and two transportation engineering project managers. The request also includes one-time spending on equipment, including centre line marking on all regional roads, soil testing and disposal, and storm water management system maintenance and repair. The latter two are legislated.A.I.L.A. - Official Gameplay Trailer | PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted 2024PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. , Dec. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions, announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.225 per outstanding share of Carrier common stock.
