Will Coventry City Go Up? Will Blackburn Go Down? We Find Out.

📈⚽ Welcome to our in-depth analysis of the EFL Championship's dynamic shifts from game weeks 12-27. In this episode, we're focusing on four teams that have seen significant changes in their league standings: Coventry, Birmingham, Preston, and Blackburn.

🔍 Our journey through the league takes a closer look at each team's evolution. Have they altered their style of play? What do their attacking metrics reveal about their ascent or descent in the league table? It's not just about points and positions; it's about understanding the strategy behind each move on the field.


✨ Highlighting key players, we delve into their performances: who's exceeding expectations, who's falling short, and who's hitting their marks. This isn't just a story of numbers; it's about the people driving those numbers.


📊 Coventry's remarkable climb, Birmingham's strategic shifts, Preston's fluctuating fortunes, and Blackburn's rollercoaster journey - we analyze it all. Our detailed breakdown covers tactical changes, statistical insights, and individual player impacts that have shaped their current league positions.


👀 Are these changes a flash in the pan, or are they indicative of a deeper, more sustainable transformation? Join us as we unpack the tactics, the triumphs, and the tribulations of these four Championship teams.

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.

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.
