All your graph's prove is that now ogs is manager of Cardiff he'll be one of the most talked about manager in the premier,in the papers on the radio and online.

No it doesnt. :D

It has nothing to do with radio or the papers and certainly doesnt predict the future.

It is a graph that shows actual world wide interest in terms of google searches. The graph shows that on average both Roy Keane and Michael Laurdup generate far more global interest. Although Solskjaer taking over in these circumstances has created an abnormal rise in interest in him as would be expected.

Not another name Martyn surely?

nobody was going to talk about ogs while he was manager of mold,but now he's manager in the premier as you graph proves things will be different from now on.

You could say that about anyone that takes over a premier league club though. The graph peaks on the week they take over and then goes back, however it is the average interest generated that speaks volumes as it is date taken over a decade. Both Keane and Laudrup werent Premier league managers yet both had far more interest globally.

Ill give you the benefit if the doubt you arent another one of mental martyns creations.

Now ogs is managing in the premier his stocks going to rise dramatically that's a given,you can't deny that.Come back with your graph at the end of the season.

Of course it will, just like everyone else.

However these graphs are taken before all three managers managed in the Premier League too. I see no reason why someone less popular all their career would be more popular now - and the graph shows that.

Roy Keane making a comment about a book almost generated as much interest as Solskjaer taking over as manager with all the circus that went before it.

Actual world wide interest in both Roy Keane and Ole Solskjaer in terms of google searches.

Roy Keane on average holds more than twice as much interest worldwide and that includes this recent week where Solskjaer has had the headlines for taking over you guys.

Statistical research data needs to be easily replicated for it to have any validity, which when the names of OGS and Roy Keane are googled gives instant results. Google your interest over time and the only relevant result is for this forum with your posting of the graph.

:laughing6: what?

Typing someones name into google means nothing though does it. I could type my name in 1000 posts here and when typed in they would come up 1000 times. Solskjaer was an attacker and more involved in match reports, doesnt mean there is more interest in him.

Actual google searches do as they have been physically typed in, in order to gain information. Rather than forcibly mentioned in match reports etc.

Roathie clearly doesn't understand how the internet works. I do however as I'm studying big data and analysis as part of my dissertation in computer science. You couldn't be more wrong in how you interpreted those statistics. You work in the property sector for a reason. Please don't come out now and pretend you know big data because to truly understand those statistics you would have to understand algorithmic logic which you don't. Thats a given. You've interpreted them completely wrong.

A "google search" of a name brings up every written piece containing that name. That name can be used in ANY context and not necessarily even about the person. Ie. a match report.

A specific google search i.e. amount of times a specific name has been searched for, shows interest in that particular person.

There isn't anything to interpret.

I've done my own statistical analysis and google searches and the conclusion I've reached which is 100% correct is Castro is wrong.The data doesn't lie sorry Castro. :ayatollah:

It certainly doesn't lie you are correct, no need to apologise.

And it shows the term "ole gunnar solskjaer" has been searched for far less times than both "Roy Keane" and "Michael Laudrup" :thumbup:

As I posted earlier, 'statistical research needs to be easily replicated to have any validity'. Therefore, Castro you need to show how your graphs can be easily replicated for your data to have any validity or your data will be treated as being spurious.

It doesn't need to be replicated.

We arent discussing who gets the most hits on a search in which "tags" are counted irrespective of context - we are discussing who attracts more interest as a human being by specific searches. Both Keane and Laudrup do. Simple.

Call it spurious all you wish, however the fact you believe perennial substitute Ole Gunnar Solskjaer generates more interest than Man Uniteds greatest combative midfielder and media foe or one of the worlds greatest players shows bias is laced in your argument.
