If you know the story of Tony Bloom and Jamestown Analytics, the data Brighton utilise feeds directly from his gambling industry and their data. Some of the key individuals behind the company, such as a gentleman called Justin Said, came from... -

The second part is mostly a fantasy. Which stars moved this summer? Eze? Gyokeres? Isak? Cunha? We don’t have a prayer of signing any. And it’s not even just about Europe. Sure getting in the CL would be great and that would give us more of a... -
Brighton is Brighton. Brighton's strategy can never be Evertons, Everton's strategy should realistically be (now BK has gone) about how to get back to winning stuff. That is not Brighton. Everton should see itself arriving at the point, and...

There's a difference between buying an analytics company and founding one. They'll get a lot of data, but will they know what to do with it?

Have stayed in Kas at least half a dozen times since 2007, probably my favourite place in Turkey. Basically it's a working town that caters for tourists, in the past mainly Turkish visitors but now more and more international tourists. It was...

You’ll never forget the smell, I haven’t… or the random car journey charges during the day when seemingly most streets magically change what direction you can drive down them at various parts of the day 🙃. I thought it was a magical place but I...

Heading to Hvar in Southern Croatia for a week with my missus and another couple we're chummy with, flying out on the 15th. Got a nice villa booked and nothing planned other than to read my book around the pool, get gently day drunk, and...

Billy Dean replied to the thread England Games/Fans.What's the outlay with the WC prices? I was hoping to be able to still get to the group games maybe. But yeah the main aim now is to have enough caps for the euros. Won't miss another home game after Andorra hopefully.
