Possibly the biggest waste of space in the Palace set up, as chief scout his performance has been dire.
There has been a shake up by Dougie Freeman with Barry Simmonds joining as chief scout, he worked with Hodgson at Fulham and England.
Coe left by mutual consent after not wanting to accept a menial role at the club.

Let's hope that Barry is as successful at Palace as he was at Fulham.

This is Simmonds second spell at Palace; last time he 'unearthed' Akinbiyi.

I blame TF Trevor Francis for that one. His type of striker. Had about 6 of them at Birmingham. Physically big, defending from the front but with no particular delicate, cultured or intelligent skill.

He couldn’t defend himself at the fans forum in the Stephenson lounge just before we bought him. I remember my mate saying it wasn’t, us, what we do, with any success, and above all, he’s a sh1t failure.

Freedman joins all the parts together by communicating to all, or there’d be some of the vital areas not communicating. Brightly does some of this in other areas lower down because Parish can’t do everything and these are football people. For all of Parish’s and Freedman’s faults these types of positions are necessary and I’d guess aren’t relatively expensive. They’re a damn sight more essential than some of the positions Portsmouth and West Ham bad wasting fortunes. Things like excessive staff for players settling in. Sure some of that’s needed but not in excess. Speroni was introduced to some Christian fans and local sponsors in Surrey. West Ham, Portsmouth and others no doubt were wasting millions on this.

Quicker just to go straight to the FMScout website, rather than waiting for him to transcribe it.

 


If you come to a fork in the road, take it.
