Hope we're scouting the Dutch league on 15:31 - Jan 24 with 7021 views | Kieran_Knows | I've started following Dutch football quite a bit over the last couple of years, and as you say, there is some good players over there (outside of the top 3 big clubs as well, Ajax, PSV and Feyenoord). Even in the Jupiler League (second division), there is some very good players as well. I'd be delighted if Town started looking over in Holland for players. | |

I still think Go Ahead Eagles is the best name for a football club. | |

It looks like we are building a bit of a war chest with Smith and Moore sold and McGoldruck looking likely to go to Cardiff. Does anyone know whether we have any scouts in Europe or what contacts McCarthy/the club has with Dutch, German clubs? | | | |

Thanks Libero, I missed out on Reusers background for some reason but wow, what a player he was for us. I feel a re-watch of the play off final coming on --- | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Aye, when I worked over there a lot of Ajax fans I knew remembered and rated Reuser very highly indeed. They all seemed to think he'd have been something special had it not been for the injury, but I corrected them that he was special. Usually with a YouTube clip or two. | | | |

MM only looks at Eire Ireland or N I There's no evidence we have any contacts on Continent but agree that Holland or Sweden would places to find future prospects at prices we could afford. Club def needs to widen it's scope but that would mean new manager. | | | |

Reuser was great and while he had injuries he still made his mark and was worth entry fee when on song. It's a great shame that we don't have scouts in Holland etc but sadly Mick doesn't travel well and I guess he doesn't like their style (too attacking). He relies heavily on mates (Moore and Rowe) and his previous clubs while many other clubs rely on scouts. | | | |

I got his shirt when he threw it into the crowd after the last game of the season at Derby, (i can`t remember the year). we went to the player of the year do and he signed it on the back and front for me. It now hangs on the wall at the top of the stairs so i can look at it every time i go up them. Happy days | | | |

All tongue in cheek and naturally a few will, but we also have signed a lot that do fall in to that criteria too - Murphy, Berra, McGoldrick, the Hunt sisters, Gleeson and they are all off the top of the dome. | |

Hope we're scouting the Dutch league on 21:57 - Jan 24 with 6338 views | kessinglandblue | Pretty sure if there was a Muhren type talent kicking around, a premier league club would pick them up given their resources before we’d even boarded the ferry from Harwich to take a look. In any case why would anyone with Reusers level of ablility let alone Muhren have any interest in joining us. Hartlepool or Eastbourne is more likely our hunting ground not Amsterdam or Eindhoven. | | | |
Hope we're scouting the Dutch league on 12:41 - Jan 25 with 6171 views | IpswichTownNL | Let me save the ITFC scouts some work: Ajax - No point, can't afford. PSV - No point, can't afford. Feyenoord - Might want to look at CM Simon Gustafson. Currently on loan at Roda. AZ - Joris van Overeem (CM) is quality. Not playing much at the moment. Utrecht - No affordable options. Heerenveen - Kik Pierie (young CB). Probably on too many scounting list already. Vitesse — I dig CM Thomas Bruns. Groningen — Juninho Bacuna (CM) & Mimoun Mahi (CF) Zwolle — Mustafa Saymak. Creative midfielder out of contract. Ado Den Haag — No one. Heracles — Sheffield Wednesday bought their only interesting player last week. Willem II - No one. Excelsior — No one. Sparta — No one. Roda — F*ck Roda. NAC — Try to get Man City loanee Angelino (LFB) in. VVV — Lars Unnerstall (GK) & Clint Leemans (CM) Top picks; Unnerstall (GK, VVV), Joris van Overeem (CM, AZ) & Mustafa Saymak (CM, Zwolle) | |
