Stubbsy & Allan romance seems to have completely died. What a waste of talent...

Waste of talent and one of the players who could have been a legend at ER had he stuck around.

Hope Stubbsie turns it around. Good guy and Hibs Hero.

***Northernhibee*** · 30-09-2016 05:54 PM

Would like Stubbsy to be succesful. Scott Allan can rot in amateur leagues for all I care, the disrespect he showed to our club after we got his career back on track against all odds can't be forgiven.

***Mr White*** · 30-09-2016 05:56 PM

Great talent but poor attitude. He'll regret it once the money runs out.

**MWHIBBIES** · 30-09-2016 06:20 PM

Allan is overrated. He didn't give 100% for us when we were winning so I'm not surprised he is slacking when the going gets tough.

**Haymaker** · 30-09-2016 06:29 PM

Wasted talent.

Its a real shame he has so much talent yet seems to want to see out his career without allowing everyone to see it.

Maybe there is a psychological defect somewhere in his makeup.

Or maybe just a good kick up the backside.

Hun syndrome. A grotesquely bloated sense of self entitlement that leads the sufferer to expect anything and everything to be handed on a plate with minimal effort on their part and no shame whatsoever if someone else is left to pick up the bill.

This. A talented player but has a very poor attitude that is going to destroy his career. Only has himself to blame.

**hibbytam** · 30-09-2016 07:00 PM

Looking back, I can't believe we got Henderson and McGeoch for him. And money. Insane.

I think that's a bit harsh. Allan always came across as someone who seemed pretty genuine, but not that bright. He's a cracking football player who has been badly advised imo. I'd love to see him realise what he had at hibs and come back here and commit his future to us.

They have no shame and a delusional sense of self-aggrandisement. Very well put Sir.

I admire your loyalty to the guy but I think it is misplaced. He seems to be a lost cause and hope he never returns to ER.

At some point in his career he's going to have to admit to himself that moving from club to club isn't working for him. He's got the talent to be a regular in the Scotland team, but it's not going to happen for him down south.

It's just not going to happen at all imo.

Possibly not, but he has got the talent.

Brilliant bit of business.

I'd still take him back though, I liked him.

Nah. I prefer Henderson. He delivers......

I don't think anyone would question that.

***lucky*** · 30-09-2016 07:34 PM

I think SA is a cracking player who I hope can find his form as he should be a Scotland regular

He's not the first and won't be the last. Some footballers can have a good career without having the right attitude and dedication, but not many.

Allan is, what, 25? And only played one decent season of football in his career. I seriously doubt he's going to amount to anything.

**Glory Lurker** · 30-09-2016 07:42 PM

Massively over-rated, with a bad attitude. No loss at all when he left ER.

Bad attitude? Definitely. Over-rated? I don't think so. On his day (4 nil v his boyhoods for example) he showed how good he could be and was deservedly player of the year. I agree with your last point though which proves the old saying of hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

**Broken Gnome** · 30-09-2016 07:48 PM

I'd let him off if he didn't go out his way and plaster himself all over Hibs TV saying he was staying, when you could've seen a Rangers bid for him coming the minute the 4-0 game began.

**Famous Fiver** · 30-09-2016 07:51 PM

I'd have him back at Easter Road any time.

No going to happen though.

Still think he'll end up at H*nbrox.

**~~Captain Trips~~** · 30-09-2016 07:53 PM

F+++ him.

👍 absolutely spot on

Agree. He is an excellent player, hugely talented. He either had his priorities wrong or listened to awful advice. I think he chased cash over progress, when if he had sought progress the cash would have followed. Would still like to see him succeed.

I think it's fair enough to defend a player like that if they chase the money early in their career once, only for it not to work out. But Allan had a second chance at Hibs and made exactly the same mistake again.

**Pretty Boy** · 30-09-2016 08:47 PM

Give it 3 years and he'll be the next Sunday Mail/Daily Record poster boy who makes a living out of giving interviews blaming everyone else for how it went wrong.

Great player but terrible attitude. It's no coincedence he's attracted some form of bother everywhere he has been.
