Bobby Gould urges City to go and buy Matty Stenson (3 Viewers)

Always makes me smile how Bobby Gould takes the credit for Pearce. He was spotted and recommended to him by Brian Eastick, then a City scout, who went on to be Pearce’s assistant in the England U20’s setup and co managed the British team in 2012. Rarely gets a mention.

Isn't just about every player recommended by a scout though?

If you applied that logic hardly any manager would be able to take the credit for any player.

Well no I don’t think a scout recommended John Gayle or Ashley Grimes.

Might have been a bad scout.

Scouts look generally at non or low leagues and abroad. Gould signed a lot of the players in his first stint through his own connections and association with lower leagues.
