Career

Livingston

Scott came through the youth system at his hometown club Livingston,[2] before making his Scottish Premier League debut on 31 July 2005 in a 3–0 defeat by Rangers at Ibrox.[3] In all he made 22 appearances in all competitions for Livingston[4] before being released in the summer of 2006 after the club's relegation to the Scottish First Division.[5]

Ross County

Scott then signed for Ross County.[5] He scored the second goal for Ross County in their Scottish Cup semi final victory against Celtic at Hampden Park on 10 April 2010.[2][5][6]

Hibernian

It was reported on 24 January 2011 that Hibernian had agreed a transfer fee of approximately £80,000 with Ross County to sign Scott.[1] The deal was confirmed the next day.[5] Scott was fined by Hibs in July 2011 for punching team-mate Sean Welsh during a training session, which resulted in Welsh needing an operation to repair a fractured cheekbone.[7] He scored his first goals for the club in a 5–0 victory in the League Cup against Berwick Rangers in August 2011.[8] Scott played infrequently under the management of Pat Fenlon, and was made available for loan in March 2012.[9] Scott was loaned back to Ross County for the 2012–13 season.[10][11]

Return to Livingston

On 26 July 2013, Scott re-signed for his former club Livingston on a one-year contract.[12] He made his second debut for Livingston the following day in a Scottish Challenge Cup match against Berwick Rangers,[13] before scoring his first goal on 3 August 2013 in a 3–1 win over Elgin City in the Scottish League Cup.[14] On 15 February 2014, Scott scored the second goal in a 3-0 win over Alloa Athletic.[15] The goal, a half volley from over 40 yards out, has had over 250,000 views on YouTube.[16] He left the club in May 2014.[17]

Raith Rovers

On 2 June 2014, Scott joined Scottish Championship side Raith Rovers[18]

On 29 May 2015, it was confirmed that Scott had left the club.[19]
