You've listened to it then? Thought the stuff about private equity & venture capitalism was very interesting.
What did you think about the increased U.S. interest?
did you agree on his thoughts on levelling up?
good to see admitting some mistakes wasn't it?

He says this he says that yada yada.Jason just take a leaf out of my (and I suspect most Town fans ) book let your eyes tell you what they see. Mine see a team in free fall heading to the non league yet again with a Manager who is clueless on how to defend. You have had so much goodwill and fans believing in what you say yet you are in huge danger of losing the lot.Youve made a mistake it happens put it right

ffs - he's on a business podcast (from mid January btw) , discussing his business philosophy and football financing in general. It's not a podcast about football and Grimsby Town.

I can't be bothered to listen to it as his way of expressing himself with his business speak and talking of things in the abstract all the time grinds my gears, but someone on Twitter said he mentioned that Hurst wasn't fully on board with the data led approach.

If indeed he did say that presumably Artell and any future managers will be employed at least in part as to whether they trust often unreliable and misinterpreted data or will they trust their intimate knowledge of the game they have been in their whole lives which is an interesting thought. I would think most managers would take note of some basic data on players but their knowledge and experience would hold sway.


That same knowledge and experience lead to Hurst assembling one of our worst ever squads though. To play devils advocate, maybe if he had been willing to adapt more, we wouldnt be as crap as we are this season.

Maybe we might have signed more Contehs! (who Hurst admited was one of Joe Hutchinson's finds/recommendations)

Data-led decisions such as not sacking a manager that is clearly not working out. I've spoken to 3 people today who are fans of different lower league clubs, and all of them have said it is absolutely ridiculous that Artell is still in charge.


No-one needs data analysis to see we're one place above relegation, losing matches heavily and consistently, and not investing in the side.

Doesn’t explain our woeful January signings though does it? If those are based on a data led approach god help us in the future as we managed to reduce the quality of our squad not improve it as was obviously the requirement!!

Seeing that we are losing matches heavily and one place above the relegation zone is data analysis in itself. It's ok talking about being data-led but the board appear to be completely ignoring the most basic data that tells us all we need to know.

That's interesting, you think  " his business philosophy and football financing in general" has no bearing on "football and Grimsby Town". What, we are run differently to a major shareholders philosophy?
Can you expand, just for interest's sake?

More questions need to be answered on recruitment.

Too many assumptions on it sitting when PH when it seems more collaborative. SP was attending games and scouting too.

Recent JS in Guardian said - Although the head coach has an outsized influence day to day, responsibility for the team’s performance is shared by the board and CEO, who should establish and define the overall strategy.
