Mike's reply was : "Scouts representing the club are distributed throughout the country on a regional basis and are remunerated on the basis of their expenses plus bonuses in the event of potential players being identified." I took this to be sub-contracting (ie. they are not employed by SFC and would only be paid if somebody is actually signed up!) therefore we have no scouts of our own ! This is not really a big deal, it's just that I was corrected by a few people and I wanted to set the record straight !!

Sorry mate, nothing personal, I was being a bit flippant (note the little winky icon!) and just wanted to sum up a fairly 'nothing speak' kind of article that the Echo used to fill a bit of space! You just happened to slot in at point number 6 and I didn't know what else to say! Anyway this does not make you a bad person and I will try not to embarrass you (or myself) in the future !!

Herewith a precis of what he said (for those who cannot be @rsed to read it) : a) We are a selling club! b) Rupert makes the decisions! c) We have no scouts! d) No more discounts! e) Crap beer for 10 years! f) John F Bacon is a groveller! g) Don't give a toss re. supporter expectations! h) We don't care about Olympians! i) No changes in the boardroom! j) I refuse to answer re. my u-turn with Rupert! k) We are still in the financial sh1t! HTH, Euro.

Jake Thompson had a couple of games, did pretty well and then was dropped in favour of White ! All the young lads have to realise that this is a squad game and that you'll be in and out, sometimes with a clear reason (dodgy pen!) and sometimes without ! This is where good management comes to the fore. Step forward JP and MW! Should not be a prob for young White as he will come back stronger with good support !!

I would leave her alone for the moment as I heard that after the courtcase she was 'hopping mad' !

Who the feck is Elton Collins ???

Played for England but maybe that's not such a big deal either !

Perhaps the fact that he no longer plays for a team managed by his dad will be the making of him? (Nigel Clough didn't do badly when he left Forest for Liverpool !) Time will tell, but whatever happens, let's all give the lad a chance !!!

I've done a u-turn on Kelvin and want him to stay now but the rest I'd be happy to be shot of ! (Stern is a ????) Having said that, this thread was meant to get info regarding interest from other clubs? So far BWP to Leicester is the only snippet on offer !

Are there any ITK'ers out there with info on whether Kelvin, Stern, Rudi, Jason, BWP et al are staying or going ?? Normally when there is movement someone gets a sniff in advance !!

I have great respect for Jermaine Wright and would be more than happy to give him a round of applause tomorrow (as it happens I can't because I am abroad at the moment!). I don't care about Hammill but I hope that the little git does not choose tomorrow to show us what we never really saw before !!!

Gillett

Lowe Out !!

Rasiak out with broken shoulder ! What happened? Did the chip fall off ?

Kinda makes you wonder why we took him in the first place ??

LLLLLLLLaaaaannnnnnaaaaaa !!!!!!

Just heard that there is between 10 and 11 thousand there so not great !

Great heart and perfect as a 'last ditch merchant' but really just a 'hoofer' which we don't need right now ! Good bloke as well, but best he sticks with a kick and rush outfit like Bolton, Stoke, Watford or the likes !!

Anyone heard what sort of attendance there is tonight ??

Holmes with his right foot as well !!

As Thomas and Wotton have both started I reckon that the thread is a bit pointless now ??

I know the place very well, I remember seeing a Liverpool shirt some years ago hanging proudly at the front of the stall with name and number on the back : OVEN 10 I'm sure that Michael would have been very flattered !

No Mc Fadden then, even on the bench !

For God's sake, don't let him speak to Rudi !!!!
