It’s obvious that Ross doesn’t think he can contribute at the moment or he would have been putting him on the pitch. He’s been quite clever in avoiding saying that publicly though. Managers do it all the time, as you say.Quote:

Good move for Scott great idea to get fit, would’ve liked him to go to Dundee with mcpake Cummings and Adam instead
We don’t know that though.Quote:

Scott Allan set up a decent chance for Nisbet against Motherwell and showed nice touches at Hampden - both horrible team performances to come on into.
Truth is, none of us really knows much so will read what we will into it all. I rate Scott Allan highly and whilst I can certainly understand the appeal for him to go out on loan, you can bet your bottom dollar that when we’re knocked out the Scottish cup and the inevitable meltdown ensues that his is one of the first names to be mentioned as having potentially had the ability to improve our fortunes.
Not if he’s cup tied on Friday v Ross CountyQuote:

I do get that, and the manager thinks I can't start with Allen with important games coming up, but what happens when he rocks up to Inverness on Monday for training and McCann and coaching staff have a look at SA and go no chance of him starting games for us and by the time he gets up and running the season will be over, surely McCann hasn't guaranteed he will start with SA, that would be madness and might not go down to well in the ICT dressing room or Allens body.Quote:

Some of the comments on here are crazy
We’re not talking about pre this season Scott Allan here. Surely he’s better getting 70 mins or so most weeks just now than 20 mins max with us. Let’s focus on getting Scott back ready for next season, something which didn’t look possible just a few months ago.
We’ve managed pretty well without him this season. Having him back fully next season will be a great boost
I hope you're right. But I don't think he'll be backQuote:

He has a year on his deal. He will be back. If he finds his form and fitness, he'll walk into the side. If he doesn't he may leave. This loan confirms nothing either way.Quote:

If he doesn't come back, it'll be because he's either not been able to regain his fitness or because someone's paid us a lot of money for him.Quote:

Anyway, I think it's a good move for all involved as does the manager and the player.
Some folk disagree with us all and that's fine. Opinions never change on the forums so not sure there's anything more to add.
Disagree. But hey ho. Good luck to him whatever happens. My fav Hibs player (Well, equal with Michael ONeill!)Quote:

Hopefully he gets himself match fit again and comes back ready to play at the top level again next season
A good move for Scott and us IMO. Don’t care what club he’s at and I’m sure Scott and Hibs looked at who he’s likely to go play for the most.
He has 6 games to play there not just to get fitter for pre season but also to get sharper. I think on every level this is a good move.
You don’t speak for me. Perfectly happy with this arrangement. To make the same assumptions you have, I suspect most fans can understand and rationalise the decision.Quote:

Exactly.Quote:

Scott hasn’t impacted a single game that he’s come on in, since returning to the team. If he needs games it needs to be somewhere where every point is vital to the season’s ambitions, or where his current level can have an impact.
The idea that Jack Ross can’t/won’t/doesn’t accommodate flair/attacking players expressed earlier in the thread doesn’t stand up to any kind of scrutiny either, it’s absolute bollocks.
Sensible move for all concerned. Here’s hoping he finds the fitness and form he needs.
Why do you disagree, though? is it actually based on anything?Quote:

So, it's a hunch.Quote:
