I’ve been meaning to ask you for a long time, but did you ever drink in the crown hotel on a Sunday afternoon? I think that’s what it’s called, the pub that overlooks the footy pitches?

I’m going back just under 20 years.
No, 20 years ago I was down in Devon, seeing a lass from Plymouth at the mo, and considering the bad press we get for the weather up here, it does nothing but rain down there!

It really isn’t mate.

Data is an old as Allardyce and beyond, he was using it at Bolton for years ...

... it's the internet that's made it available to everyone, whether they study it or not.

Schoolkids do vlogs that look like pro-presentations and have stats coming out of their ears.

It's great because it means those who can't get to games, and see players live, can feel involved.

You're right that the likes of Shankly did it all by touch and intuition, and did quite well ...

... but football keeps evolving, not always for the best tbh.

Much of it is good, and even better if they stop keepers having a mystery injury every twenty minutes <laugh>
 
Dan Neil and Cirkin are slowly going to be pushed aside this maybe the only chance they have to play Prem football.
They will not be allowed to hold the club to ransom.
Sign or they will be sold.
I like Neil and Cirkin they are an asset yes but not irreplaceable.
I’d have rid of Cirkin personally. Not sure he has the resilience for an ambitious club with fans who have high standards.
