Whilst data is important you can’t dismiss the human element.
You have to identify players and then convince them that the opportunity and salary makes you viable. Given we can’t really compete on salary the career enhancement has to be the key to get deals over the line.
So you both need to identify players with the right characteristics and then offer them a pathway to advance their career.
So structure of the club, manager, past success and notable coaches will all be important. Identifying is one thing and attracting is another. Some cautious signs of improvement from the club given our summer signings. As ever we will see as the season plays out. |

We know that Championship clubs are largely loss-making.
A lot of the owners own multiple businesses that fund these. As soon as those businesses struggle then they run into difficulties keeping the whole thing afloat. The alternative is to generate funds with transfer sales.
Whilst are owners have been questionable in the decision making, we are lucky they have converted their debts into equity and not saddled us with debt.
You've got to feel sorry for Wednesday supporters who will have had no influence in the decisions made and yet will feel a lot of the pain. |

That's a debt-for-equity swap. Essentially, a debt holder is exchanging their debt for equity. It reduces the liabilities of the club. No cash is spent. In fact, on that document, it even says "Non-cash consideration". |

United Airlines is not linked to the ownership of the club, so this is a deal with a 3rd party. What United pays is presumably related to what they believe is the publicity they receive. |

Although if they didn't want to keep him, they could have avoided triggering the one-year extension clauses. As they didn't presumably, they were happy to have him for another year. |

He's been placed on gardening leave, not fully "axed" as in contract torn up.
So basically, we continue to pay him and his contract is still in place, but he's asked to stay away from the club.

Yes, it was that site but I did a search on Kieran Morgan to find their views rather than looking at that particular thread. |

Had a look at a Spurs forum regarding Morgan.
At the time he was released, there were quite a few of them who followed youth football saying that it was a mistake and that he was being overlooked in favour of poorer development players they'd signed because he'd been developed in-house.
Their loss our gain. To be fair to spurs fans they seem to be delighted for him that he's proving a success. |

At home the onus is on being more expansive and taking the game to the opponent.
Away it's far more acceptable to keep it tight defensively and try to nick something on the counter.
I would suggest that our lack of attacking threat means when we play like this we get picked off by the opposition as we are more open and still don't score.
So over the last 2 seasons, we are better at keeping it defensively tight. |

That's not quite true.
There are 2 types. One is very slow developing and you will probably die of other causes before it gets you. The second is rapid and aggressive and if it leaves the prostate you are in deep trouble.
Unfortunately speaking from experience. My grandad died of it, my dad had it and both me and my brother. Second type resulting in a radical prostatectomy (where they remove the prostate). |
