Questions for the Advisory Board

[Ƭ̵̬̊: The Artist Formerly Known as CWIG]

Without me going through the advisory notes. What is the Headless Don Rogers joke about?

And what is the latest on Hart?

Shut up you prick

Don't you fucking start...  had enough of you getting chopsey on SM..  fucking keyboard warrior..

AB minutes confirmed that we are still using Chris Kieley’s data system. Is that a shock to people?

No - it was confirmed in the prior minutes as well.  They can use Football Manager for all I care - the critical role is the person deciding who to buy and that at least seems to be someone with experience now in Flynn.  I never had any issue with the prior approach, just the implementation.

That's the most reassuring thing for me. You would hope the model they use will produce a few more like Clayton and Cain(not everyone agrees) and less Adeloyes. Good news is we have not gone on a scatter gun approach like last summer

Adeloye was on shooting practice while Don was in the Town End getting ready to talk to the FITC course kids.

inevitably Adeloye knocked Dons head clean off with a shot. Now whenever a full moon coincides with a match day Saturday, some say Headless Don dons the Town End again.

That or the statue sculpture didn't like how statue Don was looking and lopped his head off so he could work close quarters rather than from a ladder

One does have to wonder whether a larger ladder would have done the job, rather than decapitation!

[RobertT]

I think he got mixed up and thought he was making one of Dean Hooper, so headless chicken in brass is what we have.

It wouldn't surprise me given the various shenanigans going on at the club, if the statue is unveiled and has a passing resemblance to Lee Power, or Mike Diamandis.

Then set-up a small concession flogging the bottles at every match and in the club shop.

Partner with a local authority for refilling station(s), get branded clear plastic cups, sell them for £3... it's easy when you consider it for at least two minutes isn't it?

AB minutes confirmed that we are still using Chris Kieley’s data system. Is that a shock to people?

Not for me, I said as much on a thread a few weeks ago.  I said something along the lines of, instead of using it 80% of the time like last year, we are using it 20% of the time to provide data for proposed signings - but it's still being used and Chris Kieley is the one providing it.  I also said that I think it's a positive thing and the use of it should be increased over time, which is the way they should of implementted it last year.

When you look at clubs that have implemented it, it has been introduced and grown momentum over the course of 5-10 years, not a two footed approach in one season.

I’d question how Chris Kielys system benchmarks versus other industry standards. I assume we’re using it because it’s cheaper than Wyescout - but is it comparable?

Perhaps they are using it as well as..
