Scunthorpe rumor

Scunthorpe may be using their contacts with the LA Galaxy to check out an MLS player, but their description doesn't match anyone presently with the team.

  1. He just said that he scouted him in Los Angeles via contact with the Galaxy right? It could have been someone on Colorado or any other team we've played at home for that matter. I can't recall him specifically saying the player was on the Galaxy just that he was spotting him IN Los Angeles.

    Or maybe Becks is heading to the coal mines of Scunthorpe.

  2. True, true. Here's another detail I realized checking out the rumor. Only five Galaxy players are married.

  3. "He's an American guy married to an English girl..."

    How many are married to an English girl?

  4. Why are you so surprised so few players are married? Most of them are young guys not making a whole lot of money...

  5. I'm not really surprised; it was just a detail. As far as money goes, in MLS, there have been some married players on developmental salaries. I'm not saying it's common, but it happens.

  6. Can Scunthorpe afford Lalas or Bravo? Inquiring minds want to know.

    Perhaps we should pay Scunthorpe to take Lalas and Bravo off our hands....
