I was always at odds with Taipan on this

Taips always said there should be a limit on scouts, I said that Hutchy Vale, a boys' club in Scotland, has about 50 scouts which is why Hutchy Vale are one of the best in Scotland and why shouldn't I have 50 scouts if I wanted.
Agreement was never reached.
When I'm in Scottish Division 3 or Conference N or S I try to sign 3 scouts, Now I'm in the EPL I have 5.
It's a cost thing. A skint club couldn't afford to hire more than one, a richer one could.
Always let your conscience be your guide. [/jiminycricket]
