It's good that players can develop through clubs playing at different levels.

Top division in Turkey, lower down but aiming to go up in France and the National League in England. 🙂

Nice to see we've posted a profit in excess of £5m.  All that buying cheap shit players seems to have paid off.  Now to claim the net spend badge again over the summer to really get the money rolling in - the two other clubs will benefit massively.

It's about time that the club recruited someone who has built their knowledge on the back of football management games.

Well done the club on finally finding the perfect person with that knowledge and those essential skills, it must have been a really tough task to find the right person.

I don't know this person but I hope he or she will do a good job for the good of our 3 clubs.

The outfit will likely use the simplest of AI routines to identify targets…

Position required + <£10m + (<19 years old or >30 years old) + >70% pass accuracy = ACCEPT!

You just have to hope that there are people above who have actually watched a player, understand their character and mental suitability for playing football at a high level who make the final decisions.  Vegard Forren was a player I remember having a conversation with someone at our technical scouting team, and that player had all the stats to show he could play in the Premier League, but clearly did not want to move from Norway at that time so didn't have the right mentality.  The tech team couldn't believe it didn't work, a human centred approach may have been more helpful that just stats.

Whoever recruited that fucking geek should be out the door.  
Why can’t we be run like a normal football club, this shit boils my fucking blood.

I’ll put money that some fucking speccy twat is using AI to scout our players (and I am an IT geek speccy twat myself.  I did play a bit though.  Proper football, not some PlayStation bullshit).

He must have turned down the position as he clearly has an eye for talent based on his 2008/09 ones to watch. All had exceptional careers following leaving Southampton so who are we to judge scouting abilities like this? 

Youngster to watch = Andrej Pernecky

Youngster to watch = Jamie Hatch

Youngsters to watch = Oliver Lancashire and Aaran Racine

Youngster to watch = Jamie White

Youngster to watch = Jake Thomson

Youngster to watch = Matthew Paterson

That Koke fella brags about being the founder of the Bereton Diaz for Chile movement on X... 

Surely that would immediatley disqualify him? 😅😂

So we are going full on remote scouting and utilising YouTube and football gaming data. What could go wrong?

Can’t wait for these ‘Monster’ players with the team playing ‘Beast’ tactics. Or should that be the other way round?

I know it’s April the first but the first announcement was in March.

I have to be honest........watching you lot bitching at each other on here, is far more entertaining that anything seen, or likely to be seen, at SMS this season....
