FM Scout F.C. - The Family Story

Pell Under FM Scout Radar

AFC Wimbledon midfielder, Harry Pell, is being targeted by Manchester club FM Scout. The Manics boss, Daniel Abbott, is reportedly looking for a replacement in the middle to fill the holes left by injuries and suspensions.

"It is possible we are looking to sign Harry on loan, he has talent and he will go far." Claims Abbott. "With the good position this club is in, i can't let these holes be the downfall of us, so we are certainly looking for a short term, maybe long term, replacement."

The 21, worth £40K, is said to be excited about a loan move away from Wimbledon. "I don't get the game time i want here, and a loan move would be a good option. I understand that Wimbledon and FM Scout are affiliated, but as of yet i am unsure on my future."

FM Scout aren't the only club hot on Pell's trail, with Welling, Chelmsford and Dover all looking to sign the youngster on loan.

Welling Win Battle For Pell

11th place, Blue Square South side, Welling have won the battle for Harry Pell on loan. Other clubs interested included, Fm Scout, Chelmsford and Dover.

December Report

It was a good month for our team, the only we had was against 3rd place Guiseley, and even then we didn't deserve to. The team has been gelling well, and it's good football.



It's disappointing to see us sitting in 3rd considering we were 1st up to the Guiseley game. However, we do have a game in hand, so 1st place is still up for grabs.[/1]

Round Up

It was disappointing to not capture Harry Pell on loan, but we still have other options. The injuries and suspensions have forced us to play youth players and/or change the formation, both of which isn't ideal. There are still backroom problems that need ironing out (i.e contract renewals), but they should be dealt with by the end of next week.

Another Wimbledon Player Targeted By FM Scout

19 year old, Frankie Merrifield is the second Dons player to be chased my Manics boss, Daniel Abbott. Merrifield, who rose through the Wimbledon youth academy, has only made 6 appearances this season, and is the perfect candidate for the vacant midfield position at The Bull Pit.

Reports suggest that both FM Scout and Chelmsford have made a 3 month loan offer for the player, AFC Wimbledon are yet to respond.

Bolsens-ational!

Following FM Scout's convincing 4-0 victory over Hinckley, the media have fallen over themselves to heap praise on the ever improving central midfielder Paul Bolsens after he bagged himself a hat-trick. The captain got FM Scout off the a flyer after 2 minutes scoring a powerful effort from just outside the box. He then added his 2nd of the game with a penalty after half an hour, before rounding off his hat-trick with an incisive finish from 16 minutes just after half time.

A respected journalist for BBC Sport commented that you could take a video of how the 31 year old plays and show it to kids, telling them 'that's how you play'.

Bolsens has played 18 games this season, starting 17 of them and scoring 8 goals. He recently signed a deal with the Manics to keep him at the club till July 2014.
