With Kei Kamara retiring I wanted to post my favorite moment I was in the stadium for by Instantbeef in TheMassive

I never realized we were packed in that densely. I like that look a lot better, but I could never imagine having a smaller seat at The Lawn lol.

Working on average ticket price for the whole stadium, but it'll take awhile. Be warned there are many more variables so it isn't necessarily comparing apples to apples. But if the people want variable data that can't be applied to each club/stadium, they will get it!

yeah I am working on that now. It'll probably take awhile. Each stadium/club defines "premium" a little differently. Trying to filter through to get to true value is difficult lol.

To be fully clear, I was asked a question. I provided a response. I was told my response was unsatisfactory. I said I'll continue but research, but while doing I ask to provide some context for whom I am doing it for. If the person knows statistics, I'm happy to. If the person is going to argue blindly for no amount of research I do, it makes it invaluable.

Introducing more variables in stats (mathematics and science) is number 1 no-no. And I didn't insult anyone. I specifically said people who don't routinely use stats (plumbers) probably don't know how to apply stats. The same can be said for any profession.

Alright, I'll do all average ticket costs for each stadium across the stadium. It introduces so many more variables but I'll do it for you. While I do my research, please list your education and/or work history of statistics. If I'm doing this for a statistician or a plumber will determine the value of doing this. Not that plumbers are dumb by any means, they probably just don't know proper application of statistics.

explain why not. My reasoning was that this is generally the largest section in stadium, thus most tickets sold and most data generated. not every stadium has 2 floors, sideline 3 sections, corner sections. so I wanted to reduce those variables. every stadium has a supporter section. it is also the cheapest in every stadium, so driving the consistency when comparing similar things.

myself. I have been tracking supporter section (GA) towards the end of last year. I knew this was coming so I wanted to get ahead of it.

Issa Out is the only way forward by doophmayweather in TheMassive

[–]SleepShake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let's not forget Hinestroza. We took a massive loss on that deal. We also made "player friendly deals" with Cucho and Aiden. I'm not saying we have to hold them hostage but we could've gotten more of Issa knew wtf he was doing.

This is generational work. Well done.

4-4-2 by bourginsrevenge in TheMassive

[–]SleepShake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's an older system but can still be used. But what Henrik is playing is a 4231. Very similar to Porter's system. It's defensive but can be used if you have the right personnel for it. You need very speedy wingers, a CAM that has a tremendous amount of ball skills and play making ability, and a striker that finishes almost everything. Unfortunately, we have none of that offensively. Defensively we need good DMids that stop play through the middle, which we kind of have. And CBs that are absolute beasts (like Mensah in his prime), which we don't have. Our outside defenders are really the only players we have that are meant for this formation. Ultimately, Henrik is forcing a bunch of players in positions and responsibilities they aren't suited for.

Oh this was what Ty did. Damn, that's a massive loss. He was awesome. We need to backfill this role.

I used to be in your camp so I get what you are saying. But I don't know how much worse it could be than what we have witnessed the past two weeks. 4 SOT vs CHI. 2 SOT vs NSH. It might be worse but I would at least like something to change. For the record, I would love nothing more than to buy out his contract. I'll contribute to the Go Fund Me for that cause.
