Scout bug reappears
I have no match report for todays opponent.

The scout was assigned 11th September, and has provided the goods until now.

i assigned a scout on the 4th and they aint come back yet. this needs sorting out

I took a look at the match reportd. The scout has been collecting info on tomorrows opponent today. I play the game late, tomorrows opponent played early.

So the report on todays opponent has probably been removed. A schedule problem. Not a big deal, but a bug.

Are you looking in the right place?

You don't get a PM or a notice in your manager office.

It appears in your matchday fixture details.

I find it very strange that scouted match reports disappear at all. I would have thought that if you looked at the fixture a month later you would still be able to see the report, as if a match report landed on a managers desk I'm sure he'd store it away for later use rather than reading it and throwing it in the bin.

That sounds like your problem then. Scouts only keep 1 match report.

The scout probably reported on yesterday's match but it's been lost when he reported on today's match. You have to plan accordingly.

I can't disagree, but that's how it appears to work at present.

I had this recently. It's probably in your Match Reports list.

I can see 10 in match reports.

Fair dos.

Come and visit my club and my scouts only keep one each.

I think multiple scout match reports is a subscriber benefit. Though possibly you can see previous reports when you at the club's fixtures that you scouted.

It is a subscriber benefit that match reports expire later. But that has nothing to do with the issue reported here. It is a minor one, I had setup the match already so no problem for me.

But when the scout report for a match nit played yet disappears, it is the feature not working right. It is confusing, and some people will lose trust. For those aware if the issue, it can even be said that they have an advantage. A very small one, but still.
