Chis has spy hopes of plotting an upset

Aug 10 2008 By Gordon Waddell

GORDON CHISHOLM has pushed his budget to breaking point for two UEFA Cup spying missions to Denmark - in the hope one sliver of insight gives him payback.

The Queen of the South boss jetted out to watch Nordsjaelland's 3-1 defeat to Odense on Wednesday night and No.2 Kenny Brannigan was at the airport at 4am this morning for their home clash with Randers.

Chis (right) said: "They were a decent side, just what you'd expect - big, strong, quick, everything out from defence to the full-backs.

"Even at 2-0 down they didn't change their system.

"We've put in the work and it's expensive but it's such a big game we have to prepare properly.

"We could have had someone do a report but if you see them first hand you may pick up one weething that makes a difference.

"If it means a chance of getting through we'll do it."
