5-1Jambo Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Comes from a massive Jambo family. Grandad Rab Aitchison was on our books as a lad and has been a big mentor for the lad. Zak was on Rangers books, loaned to Partick when they were in the Champiinship(pre stitch up). He played half a season on loan and got player of the year. Gerrard pulled him back but punted the lad when he got what looked like a serious injury. Now back at Partick and scoring for fun. The lad has a bit of guts about him and an eye for goals.

BigAlim Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Scored twice two days ago, hasn't scored otherwise in his 6 appearances in the third tier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5-1Jambo Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Scored twice tonight and as I said is just on come back from injury and very little football. Just keep an eye on him. He was very well thought off by Gerrard before his injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone Striker Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 He got good reviews by Falkirk fans when he was on loan there a couple of years ago in the Championship. It does seem odd why he's lingering in L1 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think young Scottish talent, especially hungry strikers should be covered by our scouts. When you see some of the dross we have brought in recently I think we could do worse than take a look at lads like Rudden. I just said worth a look not we need to sign him right away.

A_A wehatethehibs Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) Worth monitoring to see how he does next season at Partick.

As my original post said the lad was well thought of by Gerrard and is only at Partick because of his injury. If he hadn't got Injured and let go I doubt Partick would have got him. But they took a punt on the lad and are being repaid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyphoonJambo Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 He's on a good little run but not too many games left this season for him to establish himself as a first pick starter,unfortunately. They should make the play offs though and If he plays a major part in those games he'll come to the bigger teams attention. Personally, considering folk here were considering crap like Cummings,or bemoaning the loss of Wighton, I'd like to see us taking a chance on players like this. And,as an aside, it might even make his uncle cheer up (massive Jambo)🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 If he does well next year I'd say its worth sticking an offer in. According to Wiki he signed a 2 and half deal with Partick. Absolutely worth keeping an eye on though, didn't realise he was that tall too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked beside his Brother , Colin, who is a Hibs fan. Good guy actually, lives in Baberton. Always joked he disowned his Brother for signing with Hearts but admitted he’s fully turned maroon now after growing up a Hibs fan. PS. Think they’re originally from Clermiston?
