Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Alongside the cost-push inflation from the war Id be fascinated to know how much demand-pull inflation is being driven by boomers drawing on super & injecting $ into the economy while withdrawing labour, 20% of the population’s effectively immune from RBA’s disciplining mechanism An inverse of this 000
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 29/09/2026If I was a dues paying member of the PFA and felt I missed out on bonuses I think I would be expecting them to be to be gearing up (whether they were up for a fight that big is another thing) 000
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Youre an (ex) lawyer. If Burnley getting £35m after being relegated instead of EFC set a precedent that clubs can be compensated when a club’s rule-breaking affects their sporting outcome & £s Should that logic apply to players (via PFA) who lost out on bonuses & sponsorships £s etc due to City? 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Yeah, that gets to my other concern, which is politicians & public service execs jumping on SaaS AI out of FOMO or being seen as Luddites, without being critical enough on cost, privacy & data security, and the timing of the coming crash in relation to the data centre buildout. It all seems fraught 011
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 28/09/2026My big concern with Ai is that we’re very much in the VC subsidised “grow marketshare” phase of pricing. As such it isn’t possible to assess a real use cases beyond it being interesting Lots of the talk sounds like “wow businesses should get rid of their fleet because ridingsharing is so cheap” atm 110

Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/09/2026The places in the east complaining about migrants will still have the jobs, so they’ll fill with young people leaving smaller cities & regional areas At an infrastructure conference in Melbourn an exec was asked where they’d get the workers if they couldnt use migrants.

Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I suspect the player trading and financial shenanigans associated with that meant we were always going to be “outbid” by Chelsea when it came to the package of non cash benefits for Villa. 010
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Stoke, not stroke… His “statements” are generally taken out of context & still no worse than other podcasters His ability to mobilise young voters, canvassers & phone bankers, he could’ve been a real asset. But efforts by neolibs to weaponize him are squandering that in the name of factionalism. 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 03/09/2026It wouldn’t make an ounce of difference. She’s already appeared on his stream when they raised $200k for charity together. The people trying to weaponise him aren’t acting in good faith now, just as they weren’t when they fed the Drudge Report photos of Obama to stoke the “secret Muslim” conspiracy. 170

Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 02/09/2026From an Arsenal perspective it’s seems like Kroupi in January could be the move 020
Reposted by Dan in AdelaideSteve Hills @merse10.bsky.social · 25/08/2026At £6m & sold for potentially £60m 7 years later there's no doubt Martinelli has been a massive success. There's no shame in the club outgrowing his level. He was a big part of helping the club elevate levels. It was likely he'd go this summer & he was one i was desperate to win the league before 1311
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026This is pedantry, but while its not exactly 20 years, here’s Arsenal’s net spend across 18 seasons from 2000 -£3m, £22m, £3m, £15m, £5m, £4m, £1m, -£18m, £17m, -£27m, £6m, -£13m, -£2m, £28m, £73m, £19m, £78m, -£17m That’s while winning the league twice & reaching the CL in each season but the last 020
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026So do they have fans who are trying to get in and pay the club extra money or not? Getting them a seat shouldn’t be that radical a concept 000
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026You have no concept of the club as an outsider. These are things that made people choose Arsenal (if not family). If it was just success they could be United or Chelsea fans too. Arsenals fanbase grew during its “banter” era 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Yeah exactky and if adding fans is just based on success why didn’t Villa become the biggest club in the world after their success in the 80s. There’s obviously more to it. 110
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026It’s lots of things. Embracing multiculturalism when others didn’t, Nick Hornby writing a book/movie, the drama of 89, the clubs values, Wenger’s style of play etc etc etc 200
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Yeah because Wenger was exceptionally good during that period not because of financial doping. That why there’s a statue of him outside the stadium 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Arsenal had a negative or single digit net spend for the majority of seasons in the 2000s and 2010s 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Do you think Arsenal sold its best players to city, Barca and United for a decade plus for fun? It’s hard 220
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Arsenal’s ticket prices are 70% higher and they have a huge amount of corporate facilities. Spurs have also upped their non-football stadium revenue 100
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Use the owners money to: - build a world class stadium - build a world class training facility to get the regions best talent. - hire elite data analysts & scouts - Buy teams in the US, Brazil and Japan to get a sneak peak at local talent (license the clubs name to them like city do £££). 110
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Why can Spurs & Everton do it? Infrastructure spending doesnt count toward ffp etc Arsenal had to find youth players & 10-15x their value to be competitive. Nobody wanted to then sell them to city & Barca. Newcastles doing it now. They have build on it London helps but means more local competition 110
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Those dont stop commercial development; infrastructure doesnt count toward FFP/SCR They can build a world-class academy to attract regional talent, a new stadium, and invest in long-term foundations like Spurs are, and Arsenal did. There are plenty of ways to build a bigger, more sustainable club. 220
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Exactly. Arsenal had to leave its traditional home, build a huge commercial business, and endure decades of austerity by trading (developing & selling off) its best players to EARN the money it can now spend Spurs are doing the same thing now. Others could too but they want the oligach shortcut 120
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Spurs (like Arsenal in the 2000s)have built a massive commercial revenue machine, what’s stopping other clubs from doing the same? 230
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Arsenal sacrificed 20 years of spending to build the business which allows it to spend what it does today. The WHOLE point of the Emirates project was to give Arsenal the ability to financially compete with the likes of Bayern. There is nothing stopping other teams from following suit (see spurs) 150
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Arsenal aren’t going to sell Ben white with injuries to both Timber and Saliba. They are already short at RB and right CB. 010
Dan in Adelaide @daninadl.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Whether or not you think the Community Shield is a “trophy”, it’s still more meaningful than the Carabao Cup or the FIFA Club World Cup, but that says more about those two Mickey Mouse competitions than it does about the Community Shield. 🚮 000
