On 6/5/2023 at 2:04 PM, rudemedic said: It's not. The computers can do it in a few minutes but the complexities have to be accounted for. If the computers were left to randomly allocate fixtures then there would be a chance Liverpool and Everton would both be at home on the weekend of the National. Or United and City would be at home to both Arsenal and Tottenham on the same weekend. On 6/5/2023 at 2:13 PM, BP1960 said: Not these days @rudemedic, as we have read Ai is taking over humans now. Wont be long before there's robot football teams programmed by Roy Keane.

You codify that as data and then tell the system what can and can't happen - I am sure (because this is English football we're talking about) that it's done by a string of manual and complex processes. But technology has been capable of doing far more complicated things than "IF Everton = HOME, THEN Liverpool != HOME" for at least 30 years.

Well they do rely on clubs completing a survey, and considering the part-time nature of a number of clubs it probably has more variables.

I believe he over coaches his players instead of allowing players to express themselves. This in my opinion will always cause conflict within a squad.eg Rooney,Tollitt, Happy to be wrong. You've already been proved wrong you just can't admit it. As the bit about him believing he's a messiah and he over Coaches the players is just a load of made up drivel to suit your agenda. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you you prefer them days of little contact with anybody or the social media age? I don’t know anybody on here, but I really enjoy having internet Latics fans to talk to. There are plusses and minuses to both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to avoid Twitter from a Latics perspective as it is a cesspool and some people take it far too seriously Having a messageboard like this and getting different perspectives/opinions is great though. Most people on here are pretty switched on, either if opinions occasionally differ. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hemel latic Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 I really enjoy the message board, particularly as an exile. I don't mind twitter either tbh, I just walk past the stuff I don't like and ignore it. The board, the pod, the blog and the call-in mean I've got as much Latics content as I could want and agree, much of the content across all four is interesting and well informed. I'm getting soft in my old age but I do wish we could be kinder to each other when we disagree. So big up to everyone on the board, looking forward to sharing the highs and lows of what should be an exciting season with all of you. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot easier to ignore twitter at the minute because the app just isn't working! His cars look good but Musk has made a right mess of twitter.

You rarely see anyone say something along the lines of “fair point, hadn’t thought of that” on the internet. Much more common if you were chatting face to face. It’s easier to have more entrenched views on the internet or tweak the argument slightly rather than be seen to back down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
