Alas, he is leaving us to get more first team football. He is still only 30 so I hope he can get what he is looking for. He will do someone a good job, not least with his character & being a great team man.

All the best.

Good luck Scotty. I hope you find a decent club and stay injury free. Thanks for all you have done for Altrincham Football Club.

It's a pity that he fell just short of 300 appearances for Alty but I do believe that his decision to move on is the right one and in the best interests of both parties.

The one thing that I will always remember and admire him for was his hugely significant contribution towards the end of the 2003/04 Unibond Premier League season, when Alty were really struggling to qualify for the Conference North.

Scotty had missed a few matches after suffering a nasty facial injury but he returned (probably against medical advice?) for the final four matches of the tense conclusion to that season and helped the Robins to sneak into the Conference North (and we all know what occurred the following season!), even registering a goal in a crucial victory over Worksop Town at Moss Lane on that extremely nervy night back in April 2004.

Oh, and that goal at Hucknall Town a year later wasn't bad, either!   

Thanks for all your efforts in the cause of Altrincham FC and sincere best wishes for the future.

All the best Gary;you've been loyal servant of Alty and always had a friendly word for the fans.

It's a pity that you were sent off in your last game but, I say, that just emphasised your commitment to the Alty cause.

Keep in touch;we will watch your next move with interest

Sorry to see you go just short of 300 appearances Scotty. The club and the dressing room is losing a real character! Probably the right thing to do though.

Good luck Scotty!

Ditto everyone above - a new addition to JL's legends I would say. Many thanks for all your hard work in getting Alty back in the top league, all the best Scotty.

Say's it all really, when a player does that, if he does what he has done for us elsewhere they will be chuffed to bits
