    Scott Allan..

    Are we allowed to talk about him?

    Its been quite a long time now with absolutely no light (that I'm aware of) shed on the subject at all. Are we still guessing as to what it is truely that's keeping him out? Is it too personal to disclose?

    Just wondering how much longer we wait before being worried. Scott Allan on it, is a joy to behold!

    Probably best to let it rest until he speaks himself.

    Scott Allan is a Hibs player and of course we can talk about him.

    We close threads once folk start sharing rumours about his private health situation. We don't want to platform those rumours, it's not fair to Scott.

    Incidentally he posted a picture of him weight training at HTC today. That seems encouraging.

    Yeah, I wouldn't want people discussing my health issues on a public forum, I think we should give Scott the same consideration

    We’ve no idea what the issue is so there’s no way of knowing whether lifting some weights is encouraging or not to be honest.

    It's definitely encouraging. Why wouldn't it be? It might not mean anything as regards him returning but I think we are allowed to be optimistic.

    If the issue keeping him out had nothing to do with his ability to lift weights. I don’t think it means anything but hopefully I’m wrong.

    I think it’s a patch that can monitor your blood sugars for diabetics without having to prick your thumb and it monitors it 24/7. It’s Bluetooth or something similar so feeds into tools for analysis

    Think it’s a glucose level monitoring device. Many type 1 diabetics have them these days....

    I would hope everyone can show him the respect and privacy he deserves and not spread rumours about his health.

    All the best to Scotty, hope all is well and I'll be buzzing once he's back and raring to go.

    Before he went on the sick list Scotty wasn't exactly hitting the heights as I recall, if that was as a result of what eventually sidelined him then I'll join in with the idea that he is the answer to our lack of creativity in midfield once fully fit. IMO that remains to be seen though, like it or not he does have a history of coasting once he is comfortable.

    Before anybody says it, I'm not suggesting for a second his current situation isn't absolutely genuine.

    Bit out of order there. Where’s the history of him “coasting”” with us once comfortable? Whatever that means anyway.

    Definitely comes across as a “I’m not ... but...” type of comment

    Agreed. I see him knocking his pan in most of the time and often getting very frustrated rather than coasting.

    Agree, total myth that he doesn’t give the effort. People expecting him to cut teams open over and over again for 90 minutes straight are off their heads, he’d be at a big English club if he could produce his great moments constantly all game, the nature of the playmaker role means this isn’t possible. Does plenty of chasing and pressing.

    We'll look much better if we play 3 up front with him in behind them.

    However, if we're playing 2 up front, we won't get the most out of him. I only think he's provided 1 assist for Doidge in the whole time they've played together. Doidge wants a cross, not a through ball. Allan needs someone with clever movement, not a target man.

    Sounds like you’re describing Nisbet there.

    Nisbet through the middle, Boyle right, Murphy left.

    A bit of everything in there, Scotty can pick them out.

    Defence can get back to their form of the start of the season, Marciano in decent form - still just really need to work out the base of the midfield and I think we have a superb team there.
