SCOTT BROWN is reportedly considering a shock PLAYING return – despite the fact he hasn't taken part in a competitive match for 18 months.<\/p>\n

The Celtic and Hibs hero was sacked as manager of Fleetwood<\/span> Town in September after a poor run of form at the start of the current campaign.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Brown, 38, last played a game way back in March 2022 after leaving his role as player-coach at Aberdeen, in order to focus on becoming a manager full-time.<\/p>\n

He officially hung up his boots<\/span> on May 6 last year and was appointed boss of Fleetwood Town less than a week later.<\/p>\n

His lone full season with the Cods saw them consolidate their position in League One with a 15th-placed finish and Brown also led them into the fourth (and fifth) rounds of the FA<\/span> Cup for the first time in their history<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Former Scotland<\/span> skipper Brown was linked with the CheltenhamTown job a few weeks ago and more recently, put forward as a candidate who'd be interested in the vacancy at St Johnstone. <\/p>\n

But in a surprise twist, he could pull his socks back up once again as a player – in the fourth tier of Scottish football<\/span>.<\/p>\n

He recently took part in Hibs' legend David Gray's testimonial, leaving fans begging for him to come out of retirement. <\/p>\n

And they may just get their wish, with Brown having been training<\/span> withEdinburgh-based League Two<\/span> outfit The Spartans, according to the Scotsman.<\/p>\n

Brown's son is part of the club's youth programme and while it's understood he has made it clear his priority for the future<\/span> is management, he is said to be 'feeling out' whether a return to playing could work<\/span> out.<\/p>\n

The former midfield maestro recently conducted the Scottish Cup draw and Brown said himself of his time at Fleetwood and future<\/span> plans: "It was great to for myself and Steven [Whittaker] to go down to\u00a0England<\/span> and get a great understanding.<\/p>\n

"We enjoyed it, we had some great times last season, not so many this season but we all bounce back.<\/p>\n

"But now it's getting back to the stage where I'm looking to get back into that routine."<\/p>\n
