The fans aren't demanding old school scouts, just good performances.
Of course even in the most modern of recruitment policies there is still a big place for traditional scouting, and there's nothing to say we aren't going to try to be more progressive, but i cant really imagine Warnock or a guy who was last working as a scout 7 years ago to be that up on the latest stuff. I may be doing them a big disservice but that's just the feeling i get.
Anyway hopefully this guy is shit hot at the scouting stuff and this goes hand in hand with better use of analysis.
And how have we arrived at a point where we know this new recruit cannot find talent, how modern crept into this argument I am unsure ,and how it relates. All I see is big clubs scouting in the traditional way young talent like the lad Man City just grabbed , our scouting system of recent times was poor.

Give the lad a chance ,we know Warnock has ,and we know he knows his stuff.
