Here’s a talking point, out of our starting line up, the strikers will be able to do a job but I’d be getting rid of Finn Azaz. In the EPL his lack of contribution out of possession will be a liability.

Disagree, think he'd be an asset. He's been linked with the likes of Brighton as well.

if it helps:
- MacOS on Chrome (on decent fibre to the house and fast wifi) - no issues loading but all external links get passed through some middle page that says something like anon on it - it has the same dark grey backing as the generic cloudflare routing pages. I'm on the latest OS version for my iMac.
- iPhone 13 Pro Max, 15 Pro Max, SE 2nd on Chrome on wifi (the 13 is my own phone and is used on network as well) no issues at all that I see - but I am on the latest iOS / security patch available for them all and the latest chrome versions on each device.
- Pixel 5, Samsung A13, Nokia (can't remember the model) on Chrome - no issues on the same wifi - not able to check network as none of these have eSims.

I have pretty good internet at home (900MB fibre to the modem) and pretty close to the nearest cell tower so if it's network stability related I won't likely see it.

I spend all day coding for mobiles and it was something to do whilst I waited for a build to compile....

Well, if it's only Apple devices being affected it makes more sense that the issue is not site related. I'm no expert on these things but the most likely explanation is that it's something on the Apple devices that is causing the issue.

Or the site needs to be optimised for Apple devices. There is no point in testing a UI only on Windows and android.

I’m surprised that seems to happen though. Have seen a few sites/applications advising a limited selection of browsers for best performance. Lazy testing/development imo.

I agree. I work for a large bank in IT (infrastructure though) Payments and we will not release a version of our app unless all features work on both mobile platforms and windows/Mac.
 
The amount of work needed to catch all the edge cases across all the possible browser / os version / device combinations is not scalable so most companies pick a range that covers the majority and work to that unless there is a critical testing need like finance / health etc - issue is the new OS versions (like iOS 26) tend to drop a lot of "security / privacy" fixes that break stuff

Could it be more than a coincidence though, that this has only started happening since the site went down recently? Before that it was fine (never happened), now it happens every single time (for me at least).

It probably is related - whatever the fix was to address the reason the site went down either created a new issue that is intermittent, frequent, but not triggering any failure reporting (ie no-one watching the analytics has seen it) and it's not showing up in any testing that gets done prior to a site update.

Don't like those types of bugs and anything "web" is best poked at with someone else's very long stick....

Saved for future reference . I won’t dismiss the impact he has had this season but as good as his attacking contributions have been in the championship he won’t be able to replicate it in the prem and the way he stands off, presses poorly and can’t tackle will mean he gets passed by and the team will be playing with 10 men.
