I read a piece yesterday about Birmingham and their setup. They have Craig Gardner as their Director of Football and some analytics nerd whose worked in football across a bunch of analysis roles as their Head of Recruitment. Was talking about Gardner and how the American owners absolutely love...

Aye but surely the people who actually work on it must know what their model favours.

I want the biggest nerds of all time running the show. Grab someone from Brighton, that Ian Graham bloke, tell em to recreate their scouting algorithms, and start hoovering up 18yo's from Ecuador and Guinea-Bissau.

I know there's at least one, maybe two posters on this forum who have been asked to delete posts about the academy and academy games because the club claim it breaches safeguarding 😂 I wish I was joking.

Changes to the playoffs being considered

It’s on purpose. The club have decided to report as little as possible about the U21s and Youth team in some bizarre effort to stop youngsters getting poached. As if there aren’t scouts at every U18 and U16 game Cov will play all season long.

Dasilva was so good at Brentford. Shame his knee ligaments probably look like Frankenstein now.

Rapha to Wigan on loan

If Grimes gets hurt we’ve got no one who can naturally play at DM. If Rudoni gets hurt we’ve got no one who can naturally play the 10. But thank god we’ve got 3 left backs eh lads.

MVE finally got his move to Turkey?

I was a Woolfenden sceptic but £4m is a damn good price. Genuinely thought it would be £6m minimum.

I don’t speak Swedish and my missus would probably be a bit miffed 😓

Big fan of this lad

West Brom signed Heggem for £600k last summer

99% sure it’s too late in the window to get the lad from MLS we were linked to. Shame as he looked like he had a bit about him.

Shame no ones told wrexham about his new contract he’s definitely signed

This is why you don't listen to Football League World lads! They chat shit for clicks.

Is he a quality Championship centre half? He's played one season in the league in a team that conceded a lot of goals! We have no idea if he's going to fix our very clear defensive issues.

Holding midfielder. Would most likely be a Grimes backup.

Is Woolfenden even an upgrade on Thomas/Kitching? One season at Championship level as part of the Ipswich side that blew teams away with the best attack in the entire league but conceded more than 16th place Sunderland.
