Yes he could but we would need to get SK off the wage bill before anything happens I would imagine.

Ipswich I think.

He must be getting on a wee bit no?

Has scored goals wherever he has gone, and we need options beyond Sparky/Griffiths, and the young lads that get 20 minutes here and there haven't shown much to say that they are the answer, at least not at the moment.

Scotland is the recipient of a particularly expletive-ridden drunken tirade by Yours Truly after his behaviour in the SC semi Final for Dundee United :grr::grr:

He'd be a great signing, his star performance in the Uefa cup final for Ipswich was superb, practically won it for them on his own. :hibees

Plus his 3 goals in the semi final and playing in goal for the last 25 minutes are legendary down Ipswich way.

Did we not **** him up for his work permit previously? Doubt he would come here!

Think Collins wanted him from St Johnstone but yeah I kind of remember Petrie putting the block on him Re signing for Dundee Utd so he had to move to saints in the SFL instead.

Was it not more that the panel that decided upon his renewal of his work permit at The Arabs were all Hibbies, and Dundee United - specifically Scotland - had just papped us oot the SC at the semi-final stage.

Not the best of timing for the lad, it has to be said.

I was wondering when the hibs.net scouting network would pick this one up....

Quick, call Pat.

Might be able to get Leigh if Wolves are in for him.

His CV is quite similar to Agogo's, I doubt he'd be any better.

Having watched them both I disagree.

So Wolves must rate him more than Sparky. Not sure I agree with that!! Sparky is much better.

Scotland has a proven scoring record down South, Leigh does not. Plus Wolves seemed less than impressed by his tweeting escapades...

We had that semi-final wrapped up until he did his thang.
Is he still scoring?

I've heard he hates hibs cause of the work permit thing a few years ago. Did we not have a few ex players on the independent panel or something?

Green Man
21-01-2013, 09:36 PM
I seem to remember there were 4 men on the panel and all were former Hibs players. I'm pretty sure Tony Higgins was one.

GordonHFC

Think Murdo McLeod was another.

And Thompson slammed the decision to put Scotland's fate in the hands of five former Hibernian players and Scottish Premier League secretary Iain Blair.

Ten times the player Agogo is. Cant see him coming here though.

That was a shameful decision, and for this he won't come to us. Cannot blame him tbh. Shame is he is a fine player IMHO.

Yep, cant say I blame him, good player, been a few worse than him who seem to have got in alright.

Why would he not come to a club just bacause a panel made a decision which just happened to include guys who had played for Hibs years ago. Sounds nonsensical as if guys like Higgins and Murdo would make any such decision to spite another club.

You said earlier you cannot see him coming here .. He is interesting Dundee, and IMHO if PF was interested Jason Scotland would not be interested - regardless of our standing and entirely because of the Panel's decision which included others with Hibs connections IIRC.

He had 13 starts in 2 years at that stage. I don't think it was a bed decision at the time.

Two different things IMO. I cant see him coming here if Championship teams are in for him however really don't get that he would never play for Hibs because some has been players on a panel made a decision he didnt like.
