Keep dreaming mate, and it can become reality. You have a hell of an eye for a player in my opinion.

I have been offered a formal gig coaching in an academy this year. U18 level. I have always enjoyed just doing bits and pieces for a few clubs, and focussing on kids not in academies but who should be imo. Not sure I will take it because it will stop me doing a few things I like. Shows though, if you are involved and have decent contacts opps open for you.
Congratulations mate, great to have that option though - always got to do whats right for you

We'll both work for sunderland one day lol
 
Yeah you find that clubs have a lot of part time scouts working for them on nights or weekends. I used to speak to a scout for man utd, when i was coaching youth football, and he was part time for years. Didnt move into a full time role until 10 yrs after doing part time work for them

I only volunteer for my club currently but heres hoping i eventually do it full time
One of my sons best friend dad is a local scout, doing night matches and weekends. He was doing it for Man City but has changed to Liverpool for next season.

The lad has explained it all before and probably will again but short answer for him is he isn't actually a scout for the club but as a scout who is a fan for the club used to send them stuff on players he thought would fit the club.

I never suggested he was a scout for Sunderland, never thought he was. In fact, in the post I directly replied to he said he scouted for a European club.
 
@Scout73 love reading your posts mate, I have a massive interest in how it all works and seeing how the most random players turns into a massive success, can I ask out of curiosity out of all the players that you have seen recently who would you like to see in the red and white of Sunderland?
I agree with this but in addition I would like your thoughts on who you would pick between Frigan and Cannon and why. I have my own thoughts but would love to know your view.
 
Nixon reports this morning says boro stoke and Southampton want Stewart
He’s a v lazy reporter mind, reads on msg boards etc etc. fact of matter is he’s got a year on his contract, we’ll sell if we want to sell and hopefully got a few replacements lined up, or we’ll keep him and fingers crossed he’ll knock them in for us all season

It's getting to the point where I would rather Stewart was gone to whoever he decides.

A great striker, but if he doesn't want to be here or wants more than we will pay then don't let the door hit you on the way out.
If it's true Cannon and the Croatian lad have been linked then that would probably indicate he is off
