Peterborough with crowds half the size of Ipswich still have a chairman willing to back his manager picking up hungry lower league players while ME seems happy to stay in the 1st Division. Just shows how poor our scouting system is at the moment.
Look at the number of shots on target compared to Ipswich, they were more hungry, had more pace, passion and creativity |  | | |  |

For all reinvestment this is Peterborough’s seventh season at this level. |  |

ME knowing diddly squat about football, never mind running a club, has always been the main problem for me. Yes we could do with more investment, to put it mildly, but lack of ££ for spending on players can be at least partly overcome by a good scouting system.

Could always do with more investment but the way Lambert is underachieving with an extremely competitive budget for this division, would you trust him to use it wisely? | | | |

Our scouting system is tinpot, just another factor to the club.
Szmodics, Kent, Senior, KVY all 10 minutes up the road - It can be summed up by the KVY situation, had him on trial, didn't sign, waited 12 months and signed him for half a million.
They have another special kid there at the moment called Kwame Poku, that's another one for the future. |  |

Well, I said I'd give him this window before criticising him too much, but must say I'm incredibly disappointed now it's shut. Don't know how much the lack of new players in is down to him though, and how much down to other factors - haven't had time to read up on it. I've said before tho that I think he needs a new assistant. | |

We picked up "hungry" lower league players last season, look how that ended |  |

They weren't the best players in the league in their positions. |  | | |

I think the idea of this post is that we might have a team of scouts constantly monitoring the progress of lots of young players, discussing with the manager and director of football the kinds of player we want at the club etc., and when we sell someone, we have a really good long-term plan in place for how to reinvest the money.
I don't think that's quite what happened last year. |  | | |

You can't blame KYV on scouting if we had him on trial. Apparently Darragh McAnthony finds their players based on local reports and who regularly gets high rating in press reports. He then sends scouts to watch them. Very simple really |  | | |

Think Barry Fry has to take a bit of credit for their scouting, any decent level non league player within about 100 miles of Bedford will be on his radar. |  | | |

Maddison, Dembele and even Toney had no extended impact elsewhere before Peterborough picked them up. Coaching seems to be involved.
We've achieved something with Woolfenden and Downes (though in both cases sucessful loans seemed to really kick-start them) but we've had many more who seemed to promise much who then failed to kick on. It's in the nature of those things, I know, but still, coaching and strategy have been wanting here for many a year (N.B. a "thou shalt not pass" of fairly recent vintage does not count as a strategy for rounded player development). | |

I'm surprised people don't adopt the scouting model that Brentford use. Don't they sign players litreally based on stats using a scouting system? Making them millions. Whilst having a solid chance of promotion | |

Has the scouting changed much since big mick, not so sure and we found some gems then, The lower League players from 2 summers ago were Hurst’s boys who he had worked with or against. Think a lot of the scouting is done on U23 prem teams. For me the 2 best players the club has brought in since micks days are Chalobah and Garbutt I’m guessing players the manager was recommended By said scouts | | | |

Yes they do. That's why Warburton left. Based on the theory derived in Baseball. Watch the film Moneyball. Really interesting!! | | | |

They don’t have an academy, they pick up the cast offs of others. It’s an interesting approach. |  |

DM signs the cheques and whilst he is a hands on chairman Barry Fry does the legwork. | | | |

Not sure any of their players are cast offs? They're signing players for 5 or 6m from the French league amongst others. | |

Sorry, what I meant was that’s where they look for young players - plenty of clubs around them are moving good players on every year. Brentford don’t waste their time bringing them through themselves. | |
