    As it stands, we only have three teams in VT2, so looking unlikely draft will be tonight unless other six teams can join today. Also aware that one of the three that has joined cannot make the draft tonight either.

    I think we are missing @maqroll, @avfcDJ, @villaluke, @dont_do_it_doug., @andykeenan, @bobzy . Could you join today if possible please or let me know if issue with draft time.

    Depend on who can join when, options are:

    - If remaining six teams able to join today:

    • we can still go ahead at scheduled time tonight (8pm UK)
    • or we could move the time tonight if this allows more teams to actively draft and still complete draft in time for season start

    - If not all the teams are able to join today, we will have to postpone draft until:

    • tomorrow either daytime or early evening UK time, prior to the first game
    • after the first week of fixtures, so we'll only have 37 rounds of games
    • after gameweek two which, if we have 9 (or 10) teams as expected, would mean everyone plays everyone else an equal number of times (4) in the 36 rounds
    • after gameweek three which would give equal games if we only end up with 7/8 teams, and we also be post transfer deadline, meaning all new signings would be available to pick

    It's big data marketing stuff I think.

    A google of Andrew Gilligan who has the same title at City brings up this:

    Apps, social media, connections, slightly creepy stuff.

    This is fun:

    And this is creepy too:

    https://www.businesscloud.co.uk/news/how-man-city-are-using-social-media-to-understand-fans/

    So going by that, he's essentially paid to monetise the way we feel through analysis of everything we put on the internet or in message apps or whatever data he can get his hands on on behalf of the club.

    I could do it cheaper, we like fish puns, Kenneth Williams and Jack Grealish.

     

     

     

    maybe its different for every club but seems to be different  at chelsea to man city. it seems to me to be a football appointment. https://ieondemand.com/presentations/troaapsipd-the-role-of-analytics-and-performance-systems-in-player-development sorry just saw your new post after i posted this.

    Okay, so it looks like I'm wrong on the U23's that have trained with the first team being available - if that's the case, we might see some players tonight that have yet to make an U23 debut.

    I have a feeling ours will be the weakest side put out in the FA Cup today - and Spurs are playing Marine.

    i wouldn't be surprised to see spurs play son and kane especially if the villa match is called off.

    Ooof.

    Missing two of the back four - Konsa being out is a blow.

    Midfield two of McGinn and Nakamba looks like it could struggle.

    Then three wingers behind Watkins - Traore I reckon will be the one predominantly in the No. 10 role.

    If we win it, it'll be through outscoring them.

     

    thats usually how football works!

    How is it that Mike Ashley has somehow made himself look good out of this? I honestly think Purslow should be banging the drum about Villa being the most selected. It’s so grossly unfair. 

    unfortunately  i think we voted for PPV.

    Mr Purslow will be speaking to fan groups on Tuesday. 

    If there's anything you'd like us to try to squeeze into that conversation, let us know here!

     

     

    can you ask him if any update on the theme park?

    She's once again trending for the wrong reasons. Have always liked her to be honest but this shows how out of touch she is

    i totally disagree with her but surely she aloud her opinion and she was only asking the question.
