His title is: Statistics in sport
His abstract is:
Application of statistical techniques in the analysis of sport has been wide ranging. My presentation will illustrate the variety of settings in which Statistics has been used, focusing on topics from my own research agenda such as: what determines the size of a crowd a football game and can Lancashire's failure to win the County Cricket Championship for fifty years be attributed to rainy weather?
