Hey,
Most people think lower league clubs operate the same way.
They're wrong.
After hosting Jack Coles (head of recruitment at Lincoln City) and Jacob Newman (recruitment analyst at Barnsley) in the Recruitment Room this month, one thing became crystal clear: League One is the most diverse recruitment landscape in English football.
Some clubs have 10 live scouts. Others have zero.
Some teams experiment with international ESC spots for overlooked foreign talent. Others stick to traditional domestic scouting, attending matches the old-fashioned way.
