You can have different locations within the same organisation based on the needs of those sub-divisions, you know?
Besides, I was talking from a product perspective, not an operational one.
Oh THAT'S who it was! I used to love battling with him about Ashley Barnes. There's was a group of chaps in the early Amex era who thought he was total rubbish. I got "BARNES 9" on my shirt simply to wind them up and much fun was had by all
Yeah fair point. I actually haven't written him off, I was just responding to a comment that seemed to suggest that he wasn't good enough based on what we've seen this season.
I hope he succeeds and I want him too, but he was brought in because of a series of injuries to key players at CB. So...
Given that it's his algorithm and we've pursued him for 2-3 windows, it's either a glitch in the matrix or a symptom of a larger failing. It seems odd that he's fit the algorithm and then also passed the eye-test and still managed to cost £11m.
Maybe I'm being naive, but wouldn't it have been...
True, from a certain point of view, however the "product" is "Brighton and Hove Albion" as a whole organisation (men, women, youth etc) ,and, if we did it, it would be about driving and rewarding overall engagement in the complete package rather than just one, albeit dominant part.
Bloom and...
This was what I was thinking. As far as I'm aware, he hasn't refused to play or kicked up a stink. The decision for him to be excluded was entirely Hürzeler, as it should be.
Let's see what happens
Just sounds like sour grapes. Should he have been sent off? Probably. These things happen. They won the FA Cup, whatever the circumstances, they have earned that European spot
Why would Forest do that? Surely if Palace can't play in Europe, their spot does to 7th and the ECL spot goes to 8th so Forest get the EL anyway?
Anyway, it's a moot point, Palace are in no genuine danger of not playing in Europe. Tough as it is, Palace deserve their place in Europe
Preferential treatment, yes, but most DEI policies I've been involved in are more about removing conscious or unconscious biases in hiring.
I worked in a sales team for years as a leader and for the majority of the time I was there we only had white men (21-25) apply for jobs because that was...
22 for me, although Barry Lloyd was the first one I remember. Goes back to about 1987. Amusingly 22 to managers only goes back as far as 2012 for Watford
I think Bart as a superb keeper, but he's absolutely dreadful at saving penalties. I get it's nigh on impossible, but he rarely even goes the right way so maybe there's something in his coaching that's awry?
