    Results from player recruitment computer

    The Head of Recruitment has been analysing the results.

    It seems that he used the Algorhythmic Research Sports Evaluation programme better known as ARSE.

    There were some teething problems and initially the new man had some difficulty in locating a BT socket to plug the hardware in but after a couple of days searching Winnie the tea lady found one in one of the run down a retail Units.

    For a couple of days there was a certain amount of confusion deciphering the screen messages such as Error Code DE233XTE000R

    FATAL ERROR

    USER IS NOT AUTHORISED TO ACCESS THIS SERVER

    And a mysterious page that strangely just had the word BLANK on!

    TS informed Warney that he was the new Tech Administrator so he got on the the software Technical Department.

    He spoke to some nice guy in Mumbai but although he spoke to him for several hours,checking the computer was plugged in and taking router wires in and out for no good reason he was still struggling.

    The nice guy in Mumbai mumbled something about raising a ticket and someone who actually knew about computers would ring back on New Years Eve.

    True to their word they rang Warney and it seems that it was a simple password problem and Warney had to change it to PEANUTS.

    The new fella from Brighton who nobody had ever heard of but everyone wondered why the fu..ck would he come here from Brighton clicked away at the keyboard for several hours.

    He put in all the criteria and Paul Douglas was on hand to help him input financial details.

    The printer sprang into life and the first 53 pages came out which were T & Cs and adverts for Sudafed tablets and a chewing Tobacco endorsed by a famous player and gambler who lives near me.

    The printer then jammed to the chagrin of all around.

    After two hours of switching it on and off,opening the back and peering in for no good reason it suddenly started up.

    A single page was ejected into the paper tray..

    The Brighton bloke grabbed the page and held it up for all to see and it said

    BUBBLES THE CHIMP

    A lot of thought went into that Kempo - nice one.

    Not supporting the flavour of the post as anarchist it is - and why not...lol

    But for God's sake don't shout !

    Not read many posts recently due to low level of input and infuriating simplicity of treatment for complex issues.

    In simple terms - most of what's written is over simplification.

    Even simple comparisons of the points gained - without a thought of the :

    Who
    What
    Why
    Where
    When....which are key aspects of any story.

    Just taking our points and how we got them.

    WHO did we gain points from and....WHAT form were they in at the time.

    WHERE we're we home v Wigan or away at Brighton or Villa ( yes no points gained at either but none were expected ).

    WHEN we're these games played - first 13 games with a new squad is no comparison to 20 plus games with players who have at least unpacked their bags and know the names of colleagues.

    If anyone is into stats and go home and away - and have a memory - will someone go through the games played and add the points that have been stolen from us by referee's alone .....and I think our season would look completely different....

    The easy ones....

    Huddersfield handball
    Forest penalties
    Several other penalties - but I forget...lol
    (but I have read others referring to them)

    And the big one.....

    Winning 0 - 1 at Hillsborough is written on my results chart - no other result was acceptable.

    I suggest a good 8 - 10 points could be added to our present total and better fans than I could make a case for other crimes we've suffered at the hands of referee's alone.

    These injustices are no one's fault at our club.....so let's introduce a little context with the rantings.

    The upgraded software is working better - it is called Delivering Oversight Network Keywords or also known as DONKeys.......
