Scott Allan

**Ozyhibby** · 15-08-2015 11:49 AM

I was told today from an absolutely impeccable source that Allan had indeed been an absolute dick in training and causing all sorts of trouble trying to force Hibs hand.
I'm not the type to post rumours but this came straight from the horses mouth, so to speak.
I'll miss him as a player but I'm glad he is now gone. Onwards and upwards.

Oops, meant to put that on PM board. Don't suppose it matters now though.

Sounds about right.

Good riddance to him. Probably get a plaque made for the Celtic bench (a bit like the ones in Princes Street) saying Scott Allan sat here 2015-2019.

If we're having a wee parting shot at him now that he's gone I'd like to chip in with the disgraceful 'wee ned' picture of him giving the 'v' sign in the Herald, that many defended as selective photography. It summed up his attitude for me.

I don't talk about players with other clubs. Only interested in players who want to be at Hibs 😎

Jim, what game was this?

I don't understand then why Stubbs would say he was a pleasure to work with. Not after the deal is done. He could just wish him all the best without the lie - there would be no need to keep up the pretence.

If I worked in football I would try to maintain a good relationship with people as much as possible. Look at John Collins now back coaching Scott Brown at Celtic. That relationship could easily have prevented Collins from getting the Celtic job.

Stubbs is a class act, not a vindictive fud. Apart from the last month, Scott probably was a pleasure to work with. I like his style.

It probably doesn't do Hibs reputation much good if we have a wee pop at, or fail to say the 'right' things, about a player who has moved on. Wish him well and say he was great and move on.

Fwiw I had heard similar to the OP from someone who has given me the odd bit good info on Hibs and football in general in the past. Allan had if not a falling out then certainly a cooling in his relationship with at least one player in the squad. I'm sure most of us have worked somewhere before when 2 people have had issues and it doesn't make for a happy workplace. I was also told Stubbs handled a delicate situation well.

Correct me if I'm wrong.....but your in Australia right?

Bit dubious to believe if it did actually come from the horses mouth then.

***hibees 7062*** · 15-08-2015 12:16 PM

I wonder if he'll wear his orange boots if he plays for celik . Or were they just for the hun game

Your wrong, I've been back from Australia 11 years now.

Yes i gathered that but i meant by doing what? Not taking coaches orders? Giving it the big I am in front of his team mates?

I didn't ask. Just that he had been disruptive and that he would not be missed.
He's gone now so it's no big deal. I just thought I would share in case there were people who thought the club should have kept him for the rest of the season. I personally think they have handled it well.

I see. Well if thats the case then **** him, glad he's gone. Don't need players like that in the dressing room. From what i've heard about him at his previous clubs, sounds like he's a bit of brat, it certainly isn't the first time hes thrown his toys out the pram when he hasn't got his way.

***Brightside*** · 15-08-2015 12:37 PM

Don't want to doubt your source Oz but according to coaching staff and players there have been no issues with him. As I've said in the past he ain't that pally with the majority of the squad anyway.

**GreenCastle** · 15-08-2015 12:45 PM

Move on everyone..

Sounds like a 12 year old girls conversation in the playground.

Its called diplomacy.

It's no problem. Different people can interpret different ways and it's possible this person was not that keen on Allan anyway. Either way, it's done.

You missed my point. He can be perfectly diplomatic and say the right things without saying something that isn't true. For example it would be diplomatic and true to say 'Scott has been a tremendous player for us and we wish him all the best'. Stubbs could quite easily have avoided saying that Scott was a pleasure to work with if it wasn't the case.

I guess I'm saying that I doubt some posters on here and their sources when all the official sources tell us different.
