The system is as secret as the Coca-Cola recipe, but it works: thanks to the super-advanced data from Jamestown Analytics, any club can become successful. Heracles has been proving it in the Netherlands since this summer. Thanks to an eccentric poker player from Southern England.

In the Algemeen Dagblad, there is much admiration for the way Tony Bloom, the British investor behind Jamestown Analytics, runs his business. The Brit, also owner of Brighton & Hove Albion, built a supercomputer that supports Heracles Almelo, among others, with transfers. For instance, data from Jamestown Analytics tipped that Jean-Paul N’djoli should head to Almelo. The striker has already scored twelve goals in twelve matches this season.
