I feel sorry for Saito. He cheers every goal we score in the warm up (we're not going to score in the game are we), checks up on any player of ours who goes down with an injury, wins headers he has no right to, pelted up and down the left last night, and all for his team mates to look and shrug.
Madsen was an embarrassment last night. In the second half, with Smyth on, he'd decided he was going to plant himself about 20 feet from the touchline in front of ER and run up and down that. Smyth had no space and all Madsen did was stop balls from Dunne reaching Smyth. Perish the though he'd try and undercut the marker and give Smyth an out ball when we did get the ball. He seems to want to stay a nice 12 feet from the penalty area and mark that space. Complete aberration of a performance.
This moment from Tyrone Mings led to Aston Villa losing their perfect record in the Champions League.

People seem to have forgotten - or weren't around - when this happened before.
It was fรบcking awful. - bucket collections to pay players' wages, being the target 'big name' for clubs to have a go at, worse refereeing, terrible away trips and grounds, half empty stadiums, shรญt football.
Everything about Hardcore History shouldn't work. The long form 3+ hour episodes are just not done like that. The mixed season length - 3, 6, 8 episodes - is inconsistent. A single voice - Dan Carlin - is seen as a no-no.
But they are brilliant. I've been listening to them since Blueprint for Armageddon, the First World War season. 23 hours and quite brilliant.
The quality of podcasts is improving ow - fewer hobbyists are making them and the sound and editing is way better as the tech becomes cheaper.
A few I like include: Page 94 - the Private Eye podcast Akimbo - Seth Godin's marketing podcast Smersh Pod - a cool review of Bond films and associated movies On Auschwitz - super quality about what the camp was really like The Real Science of Sport - brilliant research into research into sport science The Comedian's Comedian Podcast = interviews with comedians about their craft
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: https://jumpshare.com/s/5Csxj9Abkd5bFFpIkabw
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.
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.

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.
