Scott Allan

[scoopyboy]

We got Dylan as part of the Allan deal so naw he wasn't!

We had Dylan on loan for a season before he signed permanently and therefore played a full season with Scott Allan.

[Famous Fiver]

Great interview with SA on STV News.

Looks up for it and happy to be back.

Can't wait for tomorrow!!

With you now DSJ and I agree.

FWIW I'm not sure Dylan was part of the SA deal. If memory serves me correctly Dylan signed for us a couple of weeks after SA went to them.

Interesting choice of squad number too [emoji57][emoji57][emoji57]

Always thought the common conception was that the Dylan desl was a bit of an unwritten agreement.

[Famous Fiver]

Sorry boys, I saw it live and I am not IT savvy enough to provide links.

On STV News though so available through Catch Up.

I am sure an IT guru will be along in a minute.

Did make me feel good though. Lennon positive, SA positive, all good.

[hibsbollah]

Interview with him linked on Hibs facebook page. He came across OK, he's done his media training so said very little of any substance like they've been taught.

[Hi Heid Yin]

Welcome back, Scott Allan!
You will get my full support just as long as you wear the shirt and put in a decent shift every game.

Interesting to see he is interesting in being here long term.

Think he came across well and seems happy to be here.

Yes........three words....A Class Act. When he came off the bench at Dens Park a week past Wednesday he was terrific......he will be great for us I'm sure and he is definitely pleased to be here judging by his interview on the telly....a smile as wide as the Forth. Cant wait to see him run out in the green and white tomorrow!!! GGTTH

[My_Wife_Camille]

Even though he worded I like a dick, I think the point was more that you can’t take anything from the interview which I agree with. I don’t think Allan seemed especially delighted to be back, it was just a bog standard pre match presser with pretty much nothing note being said.

[ancient hibee]

Don’t know if this had been mentioned -McCann said that Allan told him he wanted to move to Hibs when it was first mentioned earlier this week.The inference was that it came up a few days before the last day of the window.

Based on your reply, il come to the conclusion that you are the “fool” and the one that doesn’t come across well.

Scott looked happy and he mentioned about it possibly being long term, I merely reiterated what he said.

[ValleyHibee]

Great news,a terrific fitba player,can't wait to see him in the Green and White again,will win over the critics with his performances as he has that special ability too open up defences with a killer pass that not many players can make.

[Hermit Crab]

With Slivka being injured he may play tomorrow. :aok:

Just finished watching his interview & agree he came across as a happy boy pleased to be back playing at Hibs. Lennon made a good point when he said he has been a bit of a nomad lately and needs to settle down with a club and play football.

With you now DSJ and I agree.

I thought the deal was, Liam on loan, x amount of cash and Dylan. If we couldn’t agree terms with Dylan, the amount of cash was increased commensurately. Could be totally wrong though :greengrin

McGinn signed before Allan left. He came on the pitch at half time to say a few words in the league cup v Montrose. Allan came on as a sub in the second half and scored the 3rd goal.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Meh

He'll get my backing like any other player as long as he comes in and works his arse of. Played very little football in his career and his best season to date was in the Scottish championship for us 3 years ago.

Let's be honest there's no real morals in the game. If he plays and scores or assists he's a hero and if he plays terrible then he's a cock for the way he left first time and didn't want to be here.

I trust Lennon and his judgement of players. I would say I'm not convinced a midfield trio of him SJM and Dylan gives us a great balance but that's a dilemma for NL

[CRAZYHIBBY]

I wonder how long it will be before the daily record starts pleading with hibs to let him join his boyhood idols again

[SideBurns]

McGeouch was here too that season.

I actually felt he was in SA’s shadow a little bit and became a much better player once he’d gone.

Albeit Dylan missed a lot of games due to injuries.

Sorry, you're 100% correct obviously. Don't know why I didn't remember Dylan being here that season although perhaps it was due to him missing a lot of games, as you say!

As for Allan's return - Hibs aren't good enough to ignore an opportunity to bring such a talented player back to the club, regardless of the circumstances surrounding his departure first time around. I haven't seen his interview, but have read the words and what I can take from them (and Neil McCann's earlier revelation that Scott asked to come back) is that he is delighted to have signed again. Let's give him as much support as every other player who pulls on the green jersey.

[SirDavidsNapper]

Sounds in his interview like he was trying to force his way back to Hibs. He sounds motivated. Looking forward to watching him again.

:agree:

Two and a half years ago folk were keen to spread wild gossip that exaggerated his character flaws.

Now folk are trying to convince us that he’s a model pro who’s just been misunderstood.

Both are ridiculous IMO.

He’s back for the rest of the season, let’s hope it works out.

[Thecat23]

Love the boy. Delighted he’s back well done Scotty son.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Neil McCann has enquired about getting scott allan back on loan, said it was all a big mistake

Welcome back Scott, you were superb today,gave our midfield a dimension we have been lacking. I for one look forward to seeing more of the same. Well done!!

[Allant1981]

the guy is just a class footballer, will be an important player for us in the next few months

Has to be done. Fantastic player and it’s great he seems to play his best stuff when he’s here. Hopefully he recognises it at the end of the season and stays on. Such a shame if he was to waste away at Celtic.

[Heisenberg]

He’s a fantastic, quality player who also gave it out big time to the Huns today after we scored/he won the pen to get back in the good books. Would love to get him signed permanently in the summer.

[Pete]

I love Scott Allan

[lord bunberry]

Some players are just a good fit for certain clubs. Hopefully Scott Allan realises that this is his club. He’s young enough to make himself a legend and play for Scotland.

[blackpoolhibs]

Is he still not wanted at Hibs by anyone?


He's quality, i'd have Harold Shipman in our team if he could play like him.

[Tobias Funke]

Joy to watch. Sublime footballer.

[TelaStella]

The wee man was absolutely superb and admittedly proved me wrong today. Played as if he had a real point to prove to both sets of fans and seemed to love every minute of it. Well done Scotty boy and welcome home.

I agree . Wasn’t having a go at Simon. Was underlining how our squad is now stronger.
Lennon was getting pelters from some over last week for letting Simon go but what happened today shows his assessment was spot on. Yes, I also hope Simon continues to develop and returns to us a better player.

[leggeto]

Delighted he's back,he holds the keys to unlocking most defense's in this league.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

FWIW I think that it might be the making of the boy that he has come back to play for a manager that has shown how to deal with players who don't toe the line.

He looked the part today. Great performance. Never wanted him to come back but so glad he has now.

I welcomed Scott Allan back with reservations. If we get the rest of the season with the same commitment and performance from him, I’ll choke on humble pie.

If anyone is in any doubt about where his heart lies, watch him immediately after the penalty is awarded.

[sambajustice]

Sometimes clubs and players are just made for each other, whatever the reason is.

By all accounts he played well today. A midfield 3 of McGinn, McGeough and Allan is quite frightening. Let's hope he keeps it up!


"ALLAN'S RE-HIRED, HUNS DEFENCE IS TERRIFIED"

[theonlywayisup]

It's funny - when the majority on here were saying we needed to buy strikers, I was thinking that it was a creative midfielder we needed.

Never in my dreams did I think we could get someone of Allan's ability. He was brilliant today. If that was some unknown Nigerian or Greek player we would be raving about that display. (Don't know why I chose those countries).

Watched the game on Hun tv and my opinion of Allan was that he did okay, wasn’t outstanding but did enough and played an important part. Most of all I was impressed with the way he handled the Hun crowd, Celebrated McGinns goal like it meant something & had words with the Hun support when he won the penalty, appeared to be a giruy. For me that said more than his overall performance. Welcome back!

Mind when “Tav” took a wee nudge from Stokesy for our equaliser on 21/05/16 and was screaming for a free kick? Giving a foul for that would’ve been soft.

A two handed shove in the back, however, is a penalty every time.

I thought Allen was excellent in the first 30 mins or so. Constantly involved and rarely gave the ball away. worked hard too. He fell out of it a bit after that but despite hardly being involved in the second half he still got an assist for the winner. Good start Scott let's see even more as the season progresses.

Not when Stevenson did it in the final. Nothing like the shove today mind you.

[JohnM1875]

Oh Tav.

"Regardless of whether it's a penalty or not we've put ourselves in a situation where a poor press at the wrong time has allowed them into our final third," Murty said.

"James [Tavernier] said it was the softest thing he's ever seen. I asked him, 'Have you put your hands on him'. He said, 'No'.

Hes pushed him with 2 hands from behind - stonewaller

Isn’t too dissimilar to Stevenson’s push in the cup final which didn’t get given! Makes it all the better!! Get it right up then!!

[supermcginn]

What a player

[SHODAN]

He showed today that he is EXACTLY what we have been missing. Class player.

[truehibernian]

He's simply a very very talented footballer. Have to say it's a great piece of business and will allow SJM in particular to enjoy his own game more. I think we have been relying of SJM to defend, attack and be combative - which has left the lad running on empty at times. Allan gives the midfield lovely balance and allows players to do what they are good at.

From what I saw the front pair did really well today to stretch their defence and give the midfield real options and areas to exploit (which is what Allan thrives on). Terrific 3 points, and to be honest, a terrific start to the year bar the obvious disappointment. Away wins at Dens and Ibrox and a win v 'Well is excellent form and a great return. I would like us to beat Aberdeen and prove we are a match for them and put pressure on The Rangers. and them.

Huge praise must go to young Porteous too :aok: to go to Ibrox and play like a seasoned pro - go on my son :not worth

[Hibeewilly]

He showed today that he is EXACTLY what we have been missing. Class player.
Absolutely 100% correct. He was a class act that first half.......he literally toyed with them. His passing dribbling and his flicks were a joy to watch. He thoroughly enjoyed the reception he got from us when he came over to take the corner........he knew was he back and every one of us to a man sang his name.........great to see:aok:

[hfc rd]

All is forgiven Scotty! Absolutely sublime against that mob yet again, one of the best players on the pitch.

[HibbiesandtheBaddies]

Lennon said in interview today that we had to play some square pegs in round holes due to injury.

Scott Allan is a round hole in a round hole for Hibs. Welcome home Scott...

[Tornadoes70]

As well as having a very talented group of players in every department this is one of the most exciting midfield line ups we've had since the 6-2 team that consisted of - Le God, Russell Latapy, John O'Neill, Matty Jack. Let's sell out ER for the next home game against the dandy dons and make our appreciation known very loudly for these extremely talented footballers. This team deserves to play in front of a rocking sold out ER.

mon the cabbage!!!

It was a trip. The push was additional.
Stonewall pen. Zero doubt.

[NAE NOOKIE]

Whatever folks opinion of Scott Allan there are two things about him that are clear.

The first is that the guy is clearly a very talented football player and that at 26 years of age he still has time to be a big player at least in the Scottish premiership if he would stop just chasing the money as he appears to do.

The second is that for some reason Hibs appear to be a very good fit for him, he was outstanding when he was here before and by all accounts he has hit the ground running this time too.

After chasing around so many clubs for most of this decade surely even he must see that Easter Road looks like the place for him .... it will be interesting to see what happens in the summer.

[Jones28]

Hopefully he's found a home. Anyone that pulls on a Hibs jersey should be given a 100% backing - with the exception of Kyle Lafferty obviously

[EL Green]

Welcome back, he was brilliant today. :flag:

[sean04]

Maybe premature but we should be negotiating a deal.with Celtic now. If he plays like that every week we won't be able to afford him in the summer

[givescotlandfreedom]

I think they'll go for McGinn and Allan could be part of a potential deal.

Works for me. We are more than likely going to lose SJM so we may as well get a quality player and cash at the same time

There is a third thing that we all know - that he seems to have been unable to make the right decisions about his future at any time in his career. Let’s enjoy it and hope NL AND Leanne can make him see sense this time.

[ancient hibee]

Just like Beuzelin did with Brown and Thomson he gives others the space to play.

[21.05.2016]

Hibs have to absolutely go all out for him in the summer. Fantastic player and clearly hibs are a good fit for him. Year or two at hibs, get his career back on track and get himself back in the spotlight and he could be looking at one pretty big last move.

[makaveli1875]

Welcome back Scottyboy , all is forgiven :not worth

[IWasThere2016]

I feel he will paid off by Cellic and sign for us in the summer

[Michael]

Celtic tend to hang on players affordable to Scottish teams for as long as possible. I think we'll need to pay a fee.

[Phil MaGlass]

I feel he will paid off by Cellic and sign for us in the summer

Sadly not if he makes a habit of playing like he did yesterday, will either be a club in for him or we cant afford him in the summer, hopefully not though.
I think that was a great piece of business by Hibs to get quality support for SJM, should hopefully see us cement top four.

[Scorrie]

Celtic tend to hang on players affordable to Scottish teams for as long as possible. I think we'll need to pay a fee.

I tend to agree. Look how they behaved with Liam Henderson

[Unseen work]

Brilliant performance from him and was the reason we were so on top first half.

Some of his flicks, turns, passes and skill is unbelievable.

It was like he was down the park with his mates and was taking the piss out of them.

[keep the faith]

I think scott would like to stay at hibs. Said as much in his interview on Friday. We are a good fit for him and he seems to feel at home here.

I'm sure Celtic will try and involve SJM In any deal, but if we do have to lose him then getting Allan on a long deal is a big sweetener as far as I'm concerned.

The way SJM is playing we may well get a huge offer down south and simply buy Allan at the end of the season. That would be even better.

Regardless, it's great to have our new number 23 back home!

So if he plays like yesterday you’ll try to forget and presumably if he has a bad game you’ll remember.Prepare for an up and down rest of season.Incidentally when he left did we not get some money and a couple of players?So we did quite well.

It's called angry old man syndrome and occurs in your 50s. usually over by early 60s when you realise life is too short to be bitter all the time. Welcome back Scott and look forward to you lifting us out of our seats for the next 4 months.

[I'm Spartacus]

Shocking to think Scott Allan's career involved being a pawn in an Old Firm petty signing battle resulting in him having to take a Dundee role to get his career back on track in the hope he'd get a bigger move. He is UNBELIEVABLY lucky and we have to hope he realises this by staying long term.

[SirDavidsNapper]

I'm hoping Scott realises he needs to settle somewhere now and not chase the money.

[Smartie]

I'm hoping Scott realises he needs to settle somewhere now and not chase the money.

Scott Allan has made a few bad decisions, but he still has time on his side.

If he settles down and plays good, consistent football this year and next, he might well get himself another big move.

TBH if he plays well enough between now and the end of the season he might earn himself another opportunity at Celtic, especially if Rodgers were to leave and a new manager come in.

He could do with ignoring his agent and focussing on playing football for a bit though.

[Sprouleflyer]

However long Scott Allan is here, end of the season or further, just enjoy his quality, top player.

Who says he will leave? I think we will either sign him permanently in the summer or get him on a season long loan but it would be in Celtics interest to sell him as he will be going into the final year of his contract at Parkhead.

It might not be his choice. If Celtic play silly buggers like they’ve done with Hendo for years then we won’t be able to get him back after the summer.

I went for a quick browse on one if their pleasant and informative discussion boards to see if I could see any comments... none as yet however I have found these enjoyable quotes:

"Thought our record was bad last 6 years against the junkies
Lost last 7 out of the last 10 games against them
We need to improve this surely , against this shower of ****"

"We are rank rotten against them. They've practically had us on toast since the first championship season."

"Since we beat them 2-6, they've been better than us in almost every game we've played them. Our record against them is a joke. "


"Over the last 6 years
The thing that gets on my tits more than most things
Our worse than disgraceful record against a club we were calling bottlers few years back ,
It really makes me sick. How they have now came to ours 3/4 last 4 times at Ibrox and won
The Cup final and our terrible away record to them .
They are now coming into these games with the same psychological edge we have with the sheep"

"sorry i thot this was the ***** bag I've gave up cuz im a fenian thread..."

"Why did we not go 4-4-2 against those ****s with someone glued to that **** mcginn????
I said it at the start of the season. I don't give a **** if he's a fenian ****, he's the best attacking midfielder in Scotland by a mile. We should've at least tried to buy him!!"
