Think they're arranged so they can see the front. 'Working with a board'? 😉

How old are you? "You've never had it so good!" 😄

You're a bit too late - 1979 🙂

Stunning. Beautiful. Thanks.

How much?

Just listened to Dolphins by Tim Buckley. I used to have the album but lost it ages ago. Beautiful.

If. But I agree. The next hurdle is the implementation on the pitch. 😉 I'm really happy to see us being 'innovative', not really had that since shirt advertising, or Mac with Jimmy Smith.

It can all look very different when it comes to knock-out though.

Crocked. Don't mention Bouncing Cheques either!

They can stay home and watch on the tele. I wonder how long before we get 'canned' chanting added to games? Oh yeah we've already had that. 😄 Won't have to worry about safe standing either but there will be a bigger demand for more toilet facilities and better hot tea availability. 😉

As you are no doubt aware with all IT that is still the case, and was the reason I pointed out probably one of the worst cases in recent years, although by all means throw the NHS systems in there too. 👍 But yes the point was why have them if you don't know how to use them - spend the money on a striker! 😄😉

Who do you think made the decisions at the PO about dealing with Fujitsu? The IT ITK had an opinion on them (Fujitsu) decades ago. As you say you need need the right people in the right places. So who is our AI expert that will be able to relate the use of AI to football and who at the top will understand what to ask for and know if it is being implemented. The numerical risk is less but the risk to the Club is what is important.

I think Clowes chose Warne because of that last season, him being to Clowes/Pearce the best known manager we were going to get. But interestingly with the new appointments to the Clubs backroom staff it shows that we will 'experiment' now we are in the Championship.

Who is our AI expert at the Club? It's a rapidly expanding field, but as can be seen from the PO IT/Fujitsu debacle there needs to be people at the top who understand what they're asking for and how it's implemented.

Can we not call this the Sporting Intelligence Department please, why Unit!

Except how much more would he be worth with a successful Championship season behind him rather than just promoted to Championship? Just to loan a midfielder to make more money for Brighton? Then the season after we have to find another midfielder - I thought we were building a team/squad to be stable at Championship level?

Outcome bias at work in the two examples you quoted? 😄 Whilst data analysis undoubtedly plays a big part in most sports there's also lots of 'snake oil' sellers around. Time will tell how these appointments work but I'd have been more impressed with similar appointments of people but with a football background.

You should have tried Copilot, that would have steered you right! 😉 I could only think that you were saying I used AI for my posts and tbh I've no idea how it works and that made me feel maybe I ought to try AI to find out! Cheers mate. 👍 😄

Oh dear did that upset you?

I didn't realise Mac played cricket. 😄

Pickford passes it forward quickly.
