Well Mr King, there’s nothing on earth Like a genuine, bona fide, FA trained sixteen man coaching team What’d I say? coaching team What’s it called? Coaching team That right coaching team Coaching team Coaching team Coaching team I hear the coaches have never won! They’ll go straight up my...

First few months were always going to be tough. They’ve had more traps laid than normal and seemingly the press has gone full mental desperate for scandals where there are none. None of this will matter in five years, just whether they deliver or not. If we’re doing this centre left stuff I’d...

What about without a Performance Director and Head of Toast?

The first budget is next week. We’re basically none of the way into this parliament. Even this freeport policy is a Tory hangover.

Yeah. My team lead literally shared a blog on it they’d written yesterday. Don’t think I’d heard it since uni before that.

Im not the one writing war and peace defending it. I was just asking what an analyst was doing on the pitch on match day. I’m still none the wiser but clearly this is a touchy subject for you so it’s fine.

From the pitch?

I think people can tell they aren’t arsed that they’re shit.

I think it’s classic management consultancy brain that think management hierarchies and job titles matter more than the people in the job. These jobs may all be super useful but as a collective they’ve ruined the playing side and now where do you point the finger? What’s got better and who is...

I don’t know that’s why I’m asking. Why do you need medical staff on the pitch or analytical staff if there’s no immediate medical or analytical issues to attend to?

We’re a different team playing no system TBF

Was there some public lecture on Tuckmans phases or something this is the third time I’ve seen someone bring it up in a week.

I keep seeing this. But if they’re all adding “1%” shouldn’t we be at least 10% better by now? Im not sure it helps more than losing a tight knit focus on match day hurts is all. Does the analyst need to be on the pitch if the kit is working? The cleaning lady and kit man have important jobs...

What’s the benefit of those people on a match day?

Yeah I agree on Saka. I think he wants to play down the line against his fullback. Just worry about a formation that gives us no options in two key areas.

Dasilva and Saka are curve ball suggestions as well. Dasilva ball retention is very good as is his link up around the box, and Saka seems to have a good eye for a pass with either foot but not sure if he’s too set as a wide player to come inside.

The idea of reparations for slavery or colonialism generally. Do we get reparations for the corn laws or how a king treated our ancestors? The general idea that people today owe you for the actions of a government their ancestors didn’t even have full suffrage to elect just seems ridiculous to me.

I mean he did play over 60 times in two seasons for Martin.

where does it end? We also brought advances. We also protected against other empires looking to do the same thing. And the tax payers paying any reparations were mostly peasants under the same system. Do the Canada and the US get reparations or just countries that aren’t doing well...

Jesus guys. I said he looks like a cat. It’s clearly not a serious post to get wound up about.
