    I follow a lot of your comments on here, as you seem to talk a lot of sense. ^_^ I couldn't agree more with you, if I tried. Last season's set of scouts for me was unusually very good in that I could have easily bought 2-3 scouts but didn't, thinking I would leave it till Level 5 and buy them then. Big mistake on my part! With the new season underway, I was gutted to see the list of scout players that I have. I can't see any of them fitting into my squad at all.

    A 27 year-old Striker who is a corner-kick specialist, a 28 year-old left midfielder and a right midfielder who is 29!! Hardly inspiring. Sod's law really. Anyways, rant over - keep up the good work July Fourth. All the best!

    Yeah thanks for that.

    As a follow-up to last seasons poor and disappointing scout list, this seasons was an improvement on last season but it wasn't the greatest scout list around, I've seen better and I was able to buy 3 players from it to improve my squad, but I still needed to buy a young striker and GK from the auction list and also buy a AML/ML through negotiations to have a least a decent squad this season.
