Don't feed footballers stats and analysis!
It's TOO MUCH INFORMATION - get back to basics (not pretty but effective football with a result at the end!)

Kenny McLean interviewed by BBC after another Norwich City defeat: Asked about whether there is enough quality in the squad, McLean said: "The quality maybe should be doubted because it's not coming out enough. We do something brilliant but then the next action, you're scratching your head and that's where we're at.

"You can't play in this league in moments, you need to be taking part in the game at all times and it's not happening enough right now.

"People have a right to doubt that there is [quality] and that's completely on us as players. We put things in place, we analyse, we're given so much information to be as good as we can be when we step on that pitch. I wish I had an answer as to why it isn't there all the time, I really do."

Waste of time & money.

“I know your mates”???
This sums it up perfectly. Intelligent footballers are a very rare breed - don’t expect most of them to be able to deal with the level of stats & game info Kenny suggests in his BBC interview they’re fed at Colney.
They just can’t. And this level of discourse proves it 😵‍💫

This calm, cool decency is dangerously absent from our discourse at the moment. Almost everyone is embracing, normalising or ignoring the 'cruel bigotry, compulsive violence, and the sadistic persecution which has characterised the philosophy and practice of fascism.'
We need more Bertrands.

Literally pedestrian - at 80 mins I’m watching our back SEVEN walking along the pitch, back and forth. Dreadful

We could play for the rest of the season and not score.
Absolutely shocking. Tippy tappy nonsense.

When people ask “what do they do in training, Neil?”
The answer is precisely this
One touch, two touch nonsense
& just like in training there’s no end result You don’t need to score Scoring is not the point in training
Someone needs to tell “the lads” that it’s literally the point on match day #ncfc

Labour spokesman

“The Tories want to retrospectively change the rules to deport people who have been in this country and contributed to our society for decades. They would separate British children from their parents and expel doctors and nurses who have been serving patients in the NHS for years."

Jessica Elgot @jessicaelgot.bsky.social · 1d

Worth saying that despite asking for more than 12 hours we’ve had nothing back from Labour on this

Aaargh, another International <insert creature> Day!

BUT, this International Sloth Day allows us to share this v rare photo from 1922 - possibly the only one that shows what the original large hands of the Megatherium looked like!

(OG vs small hands is part of current restoration discussions…)

poor quality black and white scan. A lady looks up at the Crystal Palace Megatherium hugging its original(?!) oak tree, with a beautifully chonky left hand visible
