Just watched Hearts beat Rangers to stay top of the Scottish Premiership. Another club, alongside us,using Tony Blooms Jamestown analytics in player recruitment. Apparently a club in Belgium and Holland using it have also seen good progress, long may it continue ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️

I watch a lot of Scottish football and the standard is getting worse. But Hearts deserve it. They arent pretty but never give up

Last time a club other than Celtic or Rangers won the Scottish title was Aberdeen, a few days before I was born, managed by a young Alex Ferguson.

They’re not over the line yet but it would be some achievement if Hearts can do it.

Union St Gilloise in Belgiumhave had great success with it and are also transforming their club in a not to dissimilar way to how the 1878 Group are trying to with Town. There’s a very good show on the Lrice of Football Podcast with their Chairman Alex Muzio, who is sort of Bloom’s right hand man and invested in USG in 2018.

Como in Italy, managed by Cesc Fabregas are another club punching above their weight by virtue of Jamestown.

And Brighton are about to build Europe's first stadium dedicated to women's football. A 10,000 seater costing 80 million. The guy is definitely an innovator.

It also shows how out of reach a new stadium is for us going on that price, even taking into account it's in a more affluent area.

An innovator or disrupter? Not sure.

Castellon 5th in La Liga 2 are punching well above their weight as well
