He is also the only player to score four in one match in a play-off match.

In March 2012, Scott signed a new 2-year contract with the Daggers which will keep him at the club till the summer of 2014.[7] He was loaned out to Blue Square Bet Premier club Ebbsfleet United for an initial month in February 2013.[8]

On 15 January 2014, Scott had his contract cancelled by mutual consent.[9]
