| Forum Thread | Mel Johnson Interview - now on the Patreon at 11:14 3 Dec 2024
Former chief scout at QPR responsible for some of our best signings - Rowlands, Shittu and Cook first time around, Osayi-Samuel second time around - kindly sat down with us last Tuesday afternoon. We chatted about the rebuilding of that team and its recruitment hits (and misses, Bob Taylor), culminating in the promotion at Hillsborough. Part one is pure nostalgia, and examining the method behind the madness. Some interesting names here that we were in for that I hadn't heard before - WE DID WANT CLIVE MENDONCA!!! Part two talks about discovering Adel while at Spurs, coming back to Rangers and spotting Bright, and more contemporary discussion around data/analytics vs old school scouting. Both parts available to all three sub tiers now... https://www.patreon.com/posts/mel-johnson-part-117208330 https://www.patreon.com/posts/mel-johnson-part-117208447 |
