Scott wont be back to sign former Orient team-mate Ibehre

FORMER Orient winger and youth team boss Andy Scott has ruled out returning to his former club to sign striker Jabo Ibehre.

The 25-year-old frontman was released by the Os this week after eight years at Brisbane Road, but Brentford manager Scott claims he is not interested in signing his former team-mate.

"Jabo has got all the attributes to be a decent player, but I am not interested in signing him," he told our sister paper the Epsom & Banstead Guardian.

"He has been at Orient eight years and made about 100 of his 200-odd appearances from the bench.

"He has not exactly set the world alight in terms of his goalscoring record.

"I can't see Jabo fitting in to our style of play."
