Position: Left Midfield

 

Andy originally joined Pollok in January 2006 from Ayr United, though had been retained by Maryhill. He can play anywhere on the left side but is a very effective and hard-working wingback. His career has taken him to Glasgow Amateurs juveniles, Channel Islands side Jersey Scottish, Rob Roy, and Larkhall Thistle, before moving to New Zealand with Frankie Haggarty. He came back to sign for Stranraer but soon after linked up with Rab Sneddon at Maryhill. He got a second crack at Senior football when Robert Connor took him to Ayr in the summer and made a handful of first team appearances. He quit Lok after 8 months to sign for Irvine Meadow, but returned to Newlandsfield in June 2008.
