We need to talk about Branch.

Fenerbote. A match thread devised by AI. Have it.

The environmentalist in me is crying inside seeing the pointless use of AI for football predictions and knowing its disproportionately heating the planet though gargantuan data centre under the Arctic

christ on a crutch, we really are fucked. I love how fannying around discussing hypothetical football formations is packaged as 'efficiency'

I'm happy to see if there's any enthusiastic new blood willing to volunteer as caretaker match thread starter.
Maybe we'll get some new thread starter bounce?

Especially when it doesn't realise a right winger isn't up against a right back.

(Though I will give it some leeway with a Dyche team selection).

RC gets my vote. He's got what it takes.

I vote JR or Guru - maybe we need a blast of negativity and catastrophism that the new manager can pin on the dressing room wall to get a reaction

Guru for me, I think JR is past help.

Given his obsession with players footwear Guru should be a 'shoe-in'...

My record is 2 threads, 2 draws. Save me for when we need a point for a bit of mathematical certainty.

I'd take a draw away to Fibonacci on Thursday.

you're not wrong, I must be insane to be going to Istanbul next week.

Finally someone taps it home.
You lot finish jokes like Forest finish chances.
Maybe my set ups go over everyone's heads.
And you can definitely finish that one yourselves.

Well of course, we have accepted leaders and I wouldn’t want to undermine that…..

…but should the ball come out of the back of the scrum, I’d be foolish not to pick it up.
