    I posed this question to ChatGPT. Interesting output, especially "churn risk": "In business, imagine if a company has a waiting list of potential customers who wish to use a service, one that requires membership, and that that membership is currently fully allocated, so preventing new subscribers. Now let’s say that the current list of active members has an annual income of X, but the potential customers has a greater one of Y. Is it feasible that a company might start a filtering out process by, for example, increasing existing prices that slowly forces out existing members allowing more affluent new members to join?" To wheel this back to Heck and on topic, I personally think he's doing well at the job he was brought in to do: We can turn a blind eye to our saviours all we want but this is their vision for us - they have not being subbing us to the tune of millions because they are philanthropists. Heck is the button man.

    Dreadful news. Praying for a speedy recovery.

    Anyone know if that's it for the training gear this season? I like a sleeveless for the gym. I can't remember if they've all landed at the same time previously. Cheers.

    Cannot wait to see him under Unai's coaching. It must've been agony for him (and Mings and JJ) last season having to watch from the sidelines.

    I think the Duran saga is showing we're very good at not blinking these days. World Stareout levels - Monchi is Kampagnola!

    Alongside Felix's reluctance to go back to AM, I suspect Unai would want to get him to the US ASAP and start to get his ideas across. All points to fast movement so fingers crossed for the next 48 hours.

    I'm guessing Castore contract expiry, North Stand / ground branding completion and / or marquee signing. Good reasons this time if so - previous seasons, no idea!

    After Tranmere, I write nothing off. Tough for sure, but not impossible.

    Malpractice consequences: Doctors - struck off Lawyers - disbarred Bankers / traders - jailed Refs - semi finals

    Love a Euro semi final every 42 years or so, me! I think we get our two goal cushion - 2-0 or 3-1.

    This is still a hell of a team.
  12. Stevo71
    Exactly! That was further justification for the about face. The focus on "prestige" really blinds people sometimes.

    Qualified as previous winners / defending champs in 82/83 - got to the quarters.

    It is an interesting chain of events. Established teams like Bayern can attract top talent as they're likely to win leagues and challenge for top honours. Up and comers could, previously, throw money at top talent players and managers (Chelsea and Man City) Now, up and comers like us and Newcastle have to qualify for the CL before being able to attract CL level players - we can't throw money at it so it's real last minute squad assembly (or refinement) once the ambition and calibre of the club is shown. Even then, there are restrictions and top players coming is not a given. It's knife edge stuff. Seems the only good time is whenever the opportunity arises.

    Had some Spurs mates say to me last season they were glad to miss the UECL - sniffed at it as low rent and because Sunday's wasn't good for them to watch the rearranged PL games. They've now all done a complete 180. ANY European football is now OK with them. One has frankly admitted that Villa's rise has rattled him and wants the exposure Europe brings. And a trophy (on the assumption they'd win, Conference League that is). I think that's the point - the UECL was sneered at and we were lightly mocked for being in it. Now we might win it all they see is Villa lifting a trophy before them. Another European one at that. The fear is real.
