My mate has done a little bit of scouting for a couple of English clubs in the past, but is not doing so at the moment. He is connected with a youth club, and watches a lot of youth football.

He thinks there are 2 players that are still unattached that he thinks have a real chance. And wondered if there was someone who might be able to have a look at them, or even just pass their names on?

Martin Ling was English scout under Mixus tenure and possibly yogis too.

There was a previous thread on here that saw someone get a reply from David Woodison, Head of Scouting. Think that was his name.

If in doubt email the board and Fyfe Hyndlad usually passes on any email to the relevant person

I don't know about scouts, but I heard Rix had a couple of guides and a brownie on the go during his time at Hearts. :agree:

Sorry mate, didn't have contact details but glad you have them now anyway. Here's hoping you've helped uncover a gem for the hibees!

I noticed you've found the info you needed but I thought I'd mention the thread where the Kiwi guy recommended Shane Smeltz to one of the scouts.

I don't actually know what was done but the guy got a reply.

A ridiculous one at that.

Can someone find out my recommendation - from 4 years ago - of Paddy McCourt is going?
