Now I love the B&W but you're not getting a drink unless you leave your seat after 39mins.
I went to the Brentford v Man City game at the bus stop last season which was the first time I'd seen the self service system, which is basically a bunch of iPads bolted to the concourse walls. I was openly and vocally sceptical that it was a big bag of shìt and a similar system at LR would last only as long as it took us to fake the receipts they printed out or the screens were chawed for resale at Cash Converters (e.g. 15mins). By my 3rd half-time pint I was reluctantly prepared to accept it had it's merits.
When approached for comment, did Christian Nourry say?
1) "The target price point is balance-optimsed between value and purchase volume with specific regard to what the total addressable target market is willing to pay and sample-adjusted value perception using the logarithmic scale as the price point in order to drive consistent and increasing sales volumes, improved customer satisfaction and loyalty, and company growth."
2) "I pulled it out of my hat - pay it or fùck off"
I went to a "ball game" during a recent trip to New York - Mets v Arizona at Citi Field. I have no idea what was going on but you can drink in your seat so that's one thing they've got right.
They have huge food court type areas inside the ground and it seems a lot of people come there to eat and drink and watch the game on the screen rather than in their seat which bemused me. Then they rushed off to their seats after the game to watch a 30 minute fireworks display.
They absolutely love a statistic and bombarding you with information but I reckon I'd have made more sense out of the heads up display in the space shuttle than the scoreboard. My missus kept asking what was happening and I just threw out some quotes from Moneyball with some random percentages to 3 decimal places like ".274 OBP" - I think I fooled the locals.
But we wouldn't know it's a 2 year deal because that type of information will no longer be disclosed to the window-licking, mouth-breathers who follow the team around the country every week.
I normally detest anywhere that doesn't have a W postcode but quite like Bath.
If the weather's good, the Boathouse on the river or the Wheatsheaf in Combe Hay (10min drive) are great spots to sit out. More restaurants than pubs but worth travelling to for the food.
Furlong's goal against Oldham would be ultimate limbage for me. Under the lights, final minutes, just after a massive save - the second that Clarke played the ball through you knew it was a goal, and yet, and yet, this is QPR.
It was like someone drawing back a curtain and giving you a tantalising glimpse of a world where you never have to play Port Vale and Chesterfield again.
The country has been governed for 14 years by self-entitled Etonian wànk-in-someone-elses-sock necroswinophiliacs. I'm actually surprised we're not in worse shape.
I'm getting better at understanding what Nourry is actually saying in these press releases.
"Andre's career is the sum of a remainder of an unbalanced equation inherent to the programming of the matrix. He was the eventuality of an anomaly, which despite my sincerest efforts I have been unable to eliminate from what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. While it remains a burden assiduously avoided, it is not unexpected, and thus not beyond a measure of control. Which will lead him, inexorably, to Conference football."
Come on lads, everyone knows the normal form game model is defined by the 3-tuple, Γ = 〈N,A,{uj}j∈N〉, where N is the set of players, A is the action space, and uj is the utility function for player j (each player in N has its own utility function).
Honestly, sometimes talking football on this board is like showing a dog a card trick...
Watching Palarse running a massive pork sword through what's left of Man U, you can't look past Olisse. If Eze had taken either of his chances this would be a gob-bumming.
