There is no money in the game up here at all and its a great place to find real bargains if you know where to look. Look at Cardiff - sign striker Ross McCormack for 120k from Motherwell and now want £5mill a matter of months later for him.
Here's hoping we can perhaps get some steals from the non leagues - or even the Scottish leagues. (not really sure there's a difference there lol!!!).

Why not contact the club about setting up a scouting network north of the Border akin to Stanley's golden era under Walter Galbraith when Stanley became the first English League Club to field a team entirely of Scotsman garnered from the Scottish second and third tiers but with great attitude and performances that showed by Stanley being regularly Championship nearlies?
