Scott was 24 when he left us, after 103 appearances.
At 29 he has scored fewer than 80 goals in 300+ lower league appearances.
He was good at scoring late goals from the bench.
I don't think he has been a big part of the success any of the teams he's played for have achieved.
Certainly Gateshead's success this season has been based on Armstrong, now back at Middlesbrough, and Rigg. Scott seems to have benefited from them rather than the other way round.
Career form suggests he'll score us some goals, but not the amount we really need. Sincerely folks as saccharin Hughie used to say, I hope I'm wrong, but he looks like a huge step in the wrong direction. It wouldn't take long to come up with a list of potentially more potent non-league strikers who wouldn't have cost the earth if they were prepared to play for Chesterfield.
And he's 29 ........... what about the future, what if we survive this season's debacle, do you really see Scott as part of a side leading the promotion race? It took Koroma and Bonne to get Orient there, is Scott in their league?
