So people,
I'm presuming it's against llm ethics to look at club's players around the world to do your own scouting.
But you are allowed to see the stats of players scouts come back with and also players already on your short list.
So really all I'm asking is, are we allowed to look at any players stats when they havn't been scouted or on the short list? Or has FOW allowed us to do this?

I would say that if you have had your team promoted to the top leagues, then you can look at players in another countrys team if you have a reason to look at them (eg there was a press report about them or you are going to play against them).

However, if you are looking at the player with a view to signing him, you do need to scout before you attempt to sign him.

so what say I'm Torquay boss and I scroll through a few players stats at Partick Thistle... allowed?

If there is a reasonable excuse...are you playing against them in a match? Then I suppose it's OK.

If it's for no more reason than to find out if there's a player you could buy, I my ethic states that is completely wrong.

Then again, you're just saying that to stimulate debate.

I'm with Claret on this one and assume my fellow LLaMas are as well.

I can't see any reason to look at unscouted players unless you're playing a match against their team, or the player has turned up in a media report. Anything else is off limits(to me anyway)

With that description, I would say that it's as bad as using the find function

Just say NO!
