Yes I assume he was a paid employee. He certainly worked for the club in question.

Yes one of those JT, however an answer to a recent Q, would definitely rule out one of them.

A good guess OS, but our man died in The 1990's, as you are fairly new to the game, you are welcome to have another go.

Not to worry - more a matter of being in too much of a hurry than inexperience (had simply forgotten death decade was in there)

Hard to nail down details of his demise, but I'll have a punt at Bob Bishop, the scout who discovered George Best

Goal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bob Bishop it is.

Employed as The Man U scout in Northern Ireland for 37 years working up to The age of 86. He died in June 1990 well in his 90's. I had just finished reading the biography Bestie by Joe Lovejoy and there were details about Bob Bishop in that. He discovered other Man U players such as Jackie Blanchflower,Jimmy Nicholson,Jimmy Nicholl,David Mcreery, Sammy Mcilroy and Norman Whiteside.

His main find was of course George Best and is quoted as stating to Sir Matt Busby in a telegram "I think I have found you a Genius"

A bit of info on him here

http://manunitedfans.blogspot.co.uk/...nchester-united.html

I thought you might be favourite to win that one, so all yours for 481
