…one should not just look at cyber-practices without considering the simultaenous reality that is happening – such approach is the equivalent of analysing how Manchester United plays football through the television. While it is not conclusively inaccurate, it is incomplete. It would be more comprehensive to discover the other tangible but publicly unavailable factors that could affect a game, such as pre-game discussions, opposition tactics, morale of the team, manager-player relationships, the diet that they have, the player’s last conversation with a close relative, the fantasical distraction of a recent romp with prostitutes, the weather… all of which could have resulted in the way a game was ultimately played.
