When my eldest was 12, he'd have loved it - when my youngest was 12, he wouldn't! Horses for courses - some kids have more interest in horror than others! |

Interestingly I ran the document through a couple of tools which test the AI elements in a document; they're really useful to sort out the original from the machine produced. The verdict from 3 of them was that this is fully human produced...a person wrote this not a machine. |

Just to prove what AI can do right now, I loaded the plan into an AI tool and asked it to create an audio podcast. Here it is below, summarising the text and turning it into what the club would like to happen:

The voices are completely AI generated, the script is generated by the AI and it has produced and edited it all in about 5 minutes. This is where AI is now - it's no wonder Clive is worrying about his job. |

If they're 'young' 12 year olds
Beetlejuice
Gremlins
If they want to push the envelope a bit the Thing is doable. I'd go Tremors and Arachnophobia. |

I like the foam fitments rather than the silicone and have a set of HA-Z250T The noise cancelling is excellent when I'm on the tube and the battery lasts forever. |

I get what you mean. I liked the premise and, like you say, it might have been better, it still pushed the envelope. |

I ran it through an AI tool and got this:
Queens Park Rangers Fan Engagement Plan 2024/25: FAQs
1. What is the main goal of Queens Park Rangers' (QPR) Fan Engagement Plan?
QPR's Fan Engagement Plan aims to cultivate a strong sense of community and belonging among supporters. The club believes in open communication, transparency, and collaboration to ensure fans feel valued, heard, and involved in the club's journey.
2. How does QPR plan to engage with supporters?
QPR will engage with fans through diverse channels, including:
Supporter Advisory Board: This board, previously known as the Supporters Consultation Committee, will meet regularly with senior club representatives to provide input on long-term decisions and strategies.
Fans' Forums: At least one forum will be held per season, allowing a diverse group of supporters to engage with club staff and directors on various topics.
Working Group Meetings: Focused meetings with specific supporter groups will address particular areas of interest or concern.
Virtual Fan Engagement Events: These events will allow fans, including those overseas, to participate in discussions and activities.
Junior Hoops Events: Dedicated events throughout the year will cater specifically to younger supporters.
3. How does the Supporter Advisory Board work?
The Supporter Advisory Board serves as the primary mechanism for formal consultation between the club and its fans. Representatives share their perspectives on issues affecting the fanbase and provide input on club strategy and future fan engagement plans.
The board aims to meet twice or more per season, with additional meetings as needed. Meeting notes are shared with the group and posted on the club's official communication channels.
4. What are some topics the Supporter Advisory Board will address?
The board's discussions cover a wide range of topics, including:
Fan engagement activities
Matchday experience (both home and away)
Stadium facilities
Club communication
The club's traditions and heritage
5. How does QPR ensure transparency and accountability in fan engagement?

7. Does the Supporter Advisory Board support the new Fan Engagement Plan?

Supporters can get involved by reaching out to the club's Supporter Relations team via email at supporterservices@qpr.co.uk or by phone at 020 8750 2628. Feedback, suggestions, and ideas are always welcome.
And criticism:
While the document is comprehensive, a few additions could enhance its impact. For instance, including specific metrics or key performance indicators (KPIs) for measuring the success of fan engagement initiatives would add a layer of accountability and allow for more objective evaluation. Additionally, while the document mentions various communication channels, outlining a clear strategy for using these channels effectively and ensuring timely dissemination of information would strengthen the club's communication efforts.

A few which haven't been mentioned:
Odishon (Audition) - kiri kiri kiri for people who know. Quite quite unsettling, slow, but when it drops it REALLY drops.
Smile 2 - this is excellent and as good as the first. There's some choreography in an apartment which is outstanding.
The Substance is Demi Moore's best film since I don't know when. Brilliant body horror if that's your bag with a third act which is quite horrible.
The X, Pearl, Maxxxine trilogy - Mia Goth is simply brilliant. I'm a fan of Pearl particularly because of its pacing and narrative.
Saint Maud - I loved it, many didn't. The best last frame in a film ever.
I liked Immaculate - I wasn't sure where it was going but, when it drops, it drops.
Late Night with the Devil - seek it out. It's set in 1977 it's a film of a TV show with a found footage type vibe. David Dastmalchian is amazing.
I'm looking forward to the Heretic with Hugh Grant and 28 Years Later - the first two are excellent - out next year. |

Reply | Celar - Nothing Again
at 17:41 23 Oct 2024
Just to add my 2p's worth.
I thought Celar had a weak game. He wanted the ball in the same place - as many here have noticed - and when it wasn't there looked like he was out of position. Some of the passes to him were never going to be won by him though; he's not Frey and plays a different way. He'd benefit from the ball alongside the CB for him to run onto but we're insistent on either a) crossing from the wing, or b) cutting inside to take a shot.
He had 14 touches last night which isn't enough and needed to put his foot in more - he's not keen on a physical press, relying on presence to put the defender off and their mistakes leading to chances. Unfortunately, Coventry didn't make those mistakes last night. In terms of comparison, Thomas-Asante had 21 touches and he was more central than Celar - again, Chair cutting in from the left took Celar's space and he was pushed out.
Will he come good? I hope so but he needs a goal. |

Reply | Are you Madsen?
at 02:08 20 Oct 2024
Madsen had 10 touches in the period Morgan was on to Morgan's 20. Not 4 times by any stretch and when we were attacking more in the last 20 minutes.
Madsen had more touches higher up the pitch than Field throughout the game. He also had 3 shots, 40 passes with a 70% success rate.
Madsen didn't have a good game - the only player I'd rate above a 6 would be Frey. But was he as bad as everyone is making out? He wasn't great but no worse than many others. |
