I used to really enjoy using Twitter / X for #twitterclarets, but I came off it last year for the reasons mentioned above. I found my timeline was being filled with divisive content that had nothing to do with who or what I searched for. I was getting drawn into black holes of vitriol and hatred, i...

I don’t understand why you are so bothered, surely in this time you could of provided some evidence to show Alan Pace is benefitting personally.

You don’t have to agree with me its ok.

Well unless you think he buys his ticket for the Bob Lord stand, that’s at least one way he’s benefiting.

Billy Liar. I genuinely did laugh out loud throughout the whole book.

Bearing in mind it's Italy, It would have been a bigger 'upset' had the rider who was expected to win, actually won.

Yes, my third cousin removed Don R Muttiolli had a big bet on that race.

If you're looking at 2,000 penalties taken by men wearing red, then these variables will average out. We'll have to agree to differ on the validity of data from penalties taken under match conditions v. penalties taken under sterile experimental conditions. Have you found the link to the trial? Whi...

RMutt

You eliminate the variables best by using vast amounts of data. At a rough estimate, about 600-800 penalties have been missed in English football over the past 10 years. They're all on TV. It would be trivial (but time consuming) for an experimenter to watch every penalty and work out the figures. ...

RMutt

Why would you need an experiment for that? Vast amounts of real world data are available. Do the real world data give players in red a better success rate than any other colour? I would imagine real world data has all sorts of variables that need to be eliminated in order to just get to the specifi...

RMutt

Any examples of that happening during a football match? I’ve seen an experiment where penalty takers wore different colours. Takers wearing red came out on top. I can’t remember whether it was the ‘keeper being affected or the takers feeling more confident wearing that particular colour. The psycho...

If those are operation scars and are related to the reason he hasn’t played then showing them to all and sundry doesn’t really fit with the ‘he wants privacy’ theory I wouldn’t have thought? Nor in some ways do his previous cryptic posts. Perhaps if he has changed his mind about the privacy issue th...

We’ve warned people about this more than once as they are parking.

Suggest the club gives him some guidance on social awareness and the use of social media or threads like this happen. Didn't JJ Watt give the players a talk about what the club meant to the fans. I guess Mike skipped that one. Agree. If he using social media and there is a genuine reason for his ab...

It's decisions like that that resulting in defenders walking around with their hands behind their backs looking like idiots. Surely FIFA can see that this isn't football.

If only we could go back to the days when adverts on TV were a form of high art. Like the Shake n Vac one or the R Whites lemonade one or the nuts whole hazelnut one.

I suspect that whatever teams walks out, if they are playing with the understanding that the manager and club are not really that interested in a win then they will play accordingly. It’s no different from the Dyche years. It’s obvious from team selection to the lack of intensity of those on the pit...

All this supermarket checkout girl analogy nonsense and comparing this situation to a normal working environment is a bit daft really. Knowing about footballers injuries has been going on pretty much since the game was invented. Clubs themselves regularly give out updates on their players. We all kn...

This will be a massive increase of work for Ofcom, even if they only deal with issues brought to them and don’t actively go looking for problems.

It certainly is a moral quandary. It seems almost impossible to defend the right of one individual without attacking the rights others.

They will only have Burnley fans, guestimate below 50 proper banning orders, probably late 30's. Club 'life time' bans are over 100 but they have allowed people to appeal in recent years.

The club have them as well. They usually come with a club ban and some have season ticket.

It's still not clear why they want to do it but I suspect they do have access via police/government to pictures of anyone with a football banning order

I’d always assumed the police did all that themselves. Do you think they would hand that responsibility over to football clubs?
