You don't know that he scouted any of those, not all players are scouted and scouts often only run the rule over them rather than proactively spot them. Westwood was already known, hardly plucked from absolute obscurity.

I am pretty sure he has said it in the newspaper. No one has come forward to say that this us not true. So in my book he did.

It doesn't matter that Westwood was known. You have to watch him. Recommended to your club that he is worth investing in. He was watched by lots of scouts who were put off by his size.

He is an example of good scouting.

Otherwise you are limiting scouting to kids in the park. Ridiculous comment.

Don -- Westwood was the goalkeeper voted in the Best League One and valued at £700,000. If Coleman wanted a goalkeeper and the idea a good scout spots him that is desparate.

If you hunt for quotes about Thorn bragging about who he has scouted find out what he said about David Bell. He was very proud he recommended Belly and managed to get him to Coventry.

Westwood ended up the best keeper in the championship. Why did nobody else sign him before Coventry if it was such an obvious one.
His replacement is pretty good as well.

He didn't make the Championship Team of the Year when he was with us did he?

He certainly did!

Fair enough I thought Lee Camp and Paddy Kenny were the goalkeepers when he was here in the Team.

Think Lee Camp got it the last year Westwood was here. But Westwood won it in his first year here I think it was?

Yes I have just checked -- I stand corrected -- Fox is in the team as well.
