Re: Magnus Westergaard signs
He seems to be in a similar mould to Bakinson, who hasn't set the season alight. Be interesting to see if they fed the AI machine a different set of metrics for it to recommend this guy, or whether Bakinson was a Bloomfield / Mitchell request.
Shame for Matt Butcher who showed us what he could do again last Saturday, only to find himself further down the pecking order again so quickly.
I have nothing to judge Westergaard on and I hope he's a massive success - but nothing springs out from his career to date to suggest he's worth €1m - and at 26 there's not necessarily a massive resale value - so this one will be fascinating to watch to see how good the data metric model we're using really is.
Re: Matt Bloomfield to Luton?
Does it matter if ML is invisible? Actions and words etc. Couhig said a lot, but didn't actually do a great deal. Still early days and the jury's out but with the academy, training ground, high profile staff appointments, transfer fees etc perhaps ML might prove that you don't need to shout the loudest.
Re: Jason McCarthy - Brighton u21s
Good luck Jason! A shame your playing career is over, but hopefully you are just starting a longer, even more successful career!

Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
Well said @glasshalffull . It is possible that both parties and right in their intentions and beliefs. Shades of grey.
Any thoughts on a title of the autobiography? '@glasshalffull How I went into a toilet and changed the world forever'
Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
I share that worry but I’m keeping fingers crossed that the club are just incredibly busy negotiating, installing and filming / interviewing with new management and possibly the new signing that’s been mentioned
Re: The manager post Matty Bloomfield?
The sounding outs would have been through agents then move on from there
