Kick-off between Tamworth and Tottenham at The Lamb was delayed for a few minutes due to an issue with one of the nets...

Good teamwork from the Tamworth players to sort it out.

Hi all,

I am seeking opportunities to work in the football industry as a video scout for clubs, agencies or consultancies as I am looking to expand my knowledge and personal development.

My DMs are open for inquiries, and RTs are greatly appreciated!

Want to keep up my scouting thread on here too, so I'm gonna reshare them here. Some needed re-uploading anyway, so all are available on my sub now.

Some were for my own blog/sub but plenty were for @scoutedftbl.bsky.social who I want to shout at the top instead of incessantly tagging.

New post (!) – on xG, rebounds, conditional probability, and the need for more storytelling.

Penalties and Conditional Probability
Expected Goals still need storytelling.
