class not gas Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 Think he might be out of our price range, who is the Austrian right back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 I'd be very disappointed if Des Taylor wasn't at the Austria/Ireland game. I'd be just as disappointed if City didn't have a scout at the Croatia/Iceland game either. Its good practice - nothing more or nothing less.

Surely we don't need to be scouting our own players so who are the players you are suggesting are being watched? And before anyone corrects me I counted the games rather quickly so might be 1 or 2 out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps not some of the more far flung locations, or games like Liechtenstein v Italy, but most of the others at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The six million dollar question if ever there was one mate! You`d hope that players from the likes of Austria & Iceland would be the sort we`d be considering but who knows? I expect there`s a fair bit of networking involved as well so we get tips in the future from other scouts about players that they`ve watched but their clubs have decided not to pursue for whatever reason and our blokes do the same.

22A Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 All the other scouts have their names printed Surname first. Is our scout therefore named Taylor Des? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomerRed Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 Great to see Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink is still working in football. Seem to remember he was linked with us at one time, in a Busacky sort of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a draw but we'll be hockeyed twice by Wales, and by Serbia and Austria in the return fixtures so we won't qualify anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit pessimistic mate! Two wins from those four and you`re in with a great shout I reckon, particularly if they`re both against Wales. Bale just got booked too so one more and he misses a game - ideally a second one tonight for you guys I should think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team is going well at the moment but all three of those sides have better players than us. I dread to think what Bale and co will do to us if he doesn't see red tonight!

JamesBCFC Posted November 13, 2016 Report Share Posted November 13, 2016 Interesting that most of the scouts there are part of clubs a fair bit bigger than us, or at the least playing at a higher level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
