Ep36: The Final Countdown! Who Will Hold Their Nerve.... And Who Will Crumble?

In this episode we look back at the past weeks results and discuss how that changes the landscape for the final run in at both the top and bottom of the EFL Championship table.

As ever...... things never go as expected so we got a few 'shock' results. Should we be surprised by ANY result in the EFL Championship anymore?

It's really coming together and we've still got a fierce three way fight for the Title and the Promotion places.

Four teams are fighting it out for the final two play off spots, with West Brom and Norwich in the drivers seat..... but a win for Hull or Coventry when they face off later tonight will but pressure on both sides to get the win that will almost certainly cement their play off spot.

At the bottom of the table a few teams did themselves a massive favour by getting an important win.... Mill wall being the most obvious. Neil Harris has done a great job in galvanising the Millwall squad and perhaps got them back to playing the style of football that suits the squad, and one that the fans identify with more strongly.

A look ahead shows how big an impact Hull City and Coventry could have at both ends of the table. First of all for themselves... winning their remaining fixtures could be enough to squeak into the playoffs, but could also ruin the promotion chances of Ipswich Town, and the relegation prospects of QPR, Plymouth and Blackburn. Certainly two teams worth keeping an eye on..... But so much will depend upon the result of their match on 24th April 2024 that will have been played before this episode is released.

Recruitment Decisions, Done Properly.

AI in Football: Recruitment Decisions, Done Properly is a practical podcast about how football clubs make better recruitment decisions in an AI world — without the hype.

We don’t chase novelty tools. We focus on the thinking and structure that makes any tool useful: clear role briefs, behaviours over labels, constraints and trade-offs, repeatable shortlisting, and decision review that actually improves the process.

Each episode gives you something you can use:

- Role Definition Templates (behaviour-based, not position labels)

- Question sets that lead to better shortlists

- Meeting Structures that stop recruitment becoming a persuasion contest

- Simple Ways to Stress-Test Decisions (“what would make this wrong?”)

- How AI Fits Safely: drafting, checking, standardising outputs — never replacing judgement

If you work in recruitment, scouting, analysis, coaching, or you’re aiming to, this show is for you. Clarity First. Tools Second.

About your hosts

Thomas Butterfield

I'm a very approachable obsessive learner who is always interested in the stories of others, and how that information and experience can be used to help others move the needle of their life in a positive direction.

As a result of the work I do adults and younger people understand the importance of being an active participant in their own health.

The result of this is we at Elevate Health Chiropractic and Wellbeing are putting better educated individuals into the community who are making better health decisions for themselves and those they care for the most.
They move better, they eat better, they think better.

They Feel Better.

We are always looking to work with and help individuals and organisations who value their own health, that of their family, or their staff high enough to take that next step with Elevate Health, Chiropractic and Wellbeing.

For the last fifteen years I have applied my analytical, systems-evaluation and financial background to the football industry.

As a long-term student of the game I hold coaching badges from the English Football Association and am a certified member of the Professional Football Scouts Association.

I hold distinctions in the Prozone (STATS) Professional Performance Analysis/ Performance Data & Recruitment Certificates Levels 1,2 & 3 in addition to being an F.A. Registered Intermediary.

My experience in football has enabled me to view player recruitment from the 'sharp end' and allows me to tailor my service to meet clients' best interests.
