Ah right get ya. No was more thinking, if I consider buying DEF for 4.5M vs 5M, then the effective prices minus baseline is 0.5M vs 1M... because I can't possibly spend less than 4M (or 3.9 or whatever)

Maybe? But aren't those baseline costs are the same regardless of formation?

I always think we should be subtracting away baseline prices from players in these calculations... eg minus ยฃ4M from GK+ DEFs, ยฃ4.5M from MIDs and FWDs. That money is tied and not under our control.

Pts/million only relevant *in excess* of the fixed baseline player costs

Jeff Bezosโ€™s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Postโ€™s losses with what heโ€™s made since Monday.

What a wildly stupid idea.

Mandatory helmets and high viz is a proven remedy to reduce the number of people cycling. It effectively kills off things like Dublin Bikes.

That's why no other EU country does anything like this. Pure madness.

When the MoE is 2.8% can we read anything into apparent 1-2% shifts? Could well be just sampling error.

Screenshot of tweet from Huberman that reads: โ€œThe other is that dog breeds w/different shaped heads are predictive of their demeanor and intelligence. And while I donโ€™t! believe in Phrenology I now do pay some attention to how the shapes of peoples heads relates to their intellect and steadiness, or lack thereof.โ€

In response to announcement that he will be a new CBS contributor, Andrew Huberman tweeted โ€œIโ€™ve always gone issue-by-issue on health & science, spoken to experts w/a range of takes & presented where I see the center of (data) mass pointed.

I prefer this party political system that allows change to eg the US where an unpopular and disastrous president is locked in til next (fixed time) election

You are right though that in an ideal world any new PM would call a GE to seek a new mandate
