Part of me wonders whether we will be less successful if/when he isn’t though.

AI currently does what it is told to do.

One day we will have REAL AI and the conversations will go like this:

Dan Rice: Find me some skill football players

AI: ALL HUMANS MUST DIE

I'll listen out for you!

Here's hoping his name is a positive omen!

I don't think we should be making any radical changes to the starting XI for the moment. Hoping the likes of Kone, Harvie, Low and Grimmer are back for Saturday. Slow introductions for the rest of the signings with the possible exceptions of Simons (who should be good to go) and Norris (whom I'm sure will get a start either in the FA Cup match, or come in for the next league game).

If we go up and Kone stays and does well proving he can score goals at Championship level his value could go from c£10mil to £20mil quite quickly. I can see him thriving under somebody like Dodds who is quite clearly good at working with raw talent.

My understanding of the new FFP rules for EFL clubs in L1 is as posted on here in that owners can only spend 60% of invested funds on player related costs. The Championship runs on the 3 year loss cycle basis so is very different in that respect. Either way ML didn't get rich by accident and will no doubt have all this considered and a plan on how to manage it, and knowing how very wealthy people operate some of that will be more about avoidance strategies and loopholes using sub companies and groups to move money about and buy and sell assets at inflated costs.

I hear the sentiments of how much the club is changing (and has already) but we can't change that. (My idiot face is on a cardboard cut out at AP and we have a brick in the wall, programmes and memories from those magical away days at Torquay and Lincoln etc). We all know what can happen when it all goes wrong but if we always feared the worst in life we would never get out of bed so I am just trying to embrace this positively for now and enjoy the journey.....
