Always thought Mel Machin was a classy right back and would put Simon Francis in the same bracket.
His surges down the right and crosses from the byline was like a cheat mode in the Championship promotion season.

Why?Strange appointment as Technical Director. I valued Francis as a a player but, there was nothing technical about him. If he is employed as a potentinal player recruitment officer he is unlikely to unearth the same type of player as Hughes.

Pah!!! Only signed because he was Lee Bradbury's mate. Can't play football, can't be captain, can't do his current role and certainly won't be able to do his next role.

We are so lucky to have a respected scout to give us insight into these things. Any normal person would think you'd have to be a complete moron to draw a parallel between someone's playing style and their ability to spot talent - a ballonhead of the highest order if you like - but thankfully we have R&R to put us right.
I feel sorry for the ckub and fans he was employed at.
But we all know he wasn't really a scout.
As you were a former scout, can you tell me which is the best knot to tie oneself up in?Strange appointment as Technical Director.

He could have been a scout but every report was so negative that no player was ever signed!I feel sorry for the ckub and fans he was employed at.
