    I read it on the Burnley web site and actually checked it was 14/11/2019 and not April Fools Day.

    Not often I find congruence with you Alto, but you are spot on with this.

    We had a fairly decent network of scouts until Eddie Howe introduced his methods, whatever they were, and upset many of those who were doing the job so they packed in.
    Since then, because of the redevelopment at the training ground and the improvements to the Academy set up, the club has been trying to rebuild the whole youth set up, however, it is not something which can be done quickly and with the damage done, as stated previously, it is a matter of building confidence that the same thing will not happen again.
    The scouting network communicate very well with each other whenever difficulties arise and it is not just at Burnley!

    Not getting at anybody Jon,because I thought exactly the same mesen,I'm just saying we all tend to jump the gun with certain things before finding out the facts.. Ashy (sub) has just made an effort to explain what was going on with our scouting system and it explains quite a lot..

    we are in good hands ..honest.lol

    I'm not arsed going into the specifics, but we have had at least TEN full time recruitment dudes, ump**** scouts and chief scouts since SD took over. I think we need more a few more feckin' Indians and a lot less chiefs IMHO.
