To mark his magnificent achievement at the weekend - as he further etched his name into the Club's history books - we took a trip down memory lane with the man whose name is enriched in this club’s proud history.

Hear from the man himself on some of his stand-out days.

Under-16 Schoolboy International

Scotland vs England at Hampden Park

“I played for Scotland from U14 to U16, and I remember we played England at Hampden. To be honest, I think I was just an average player in that team, but it was a great team to be a part of!

“It’s mad how at that age things can change so quickly! I remember the game being on Sky Sports and everyone from my school was watching. It was great to be a part of!”
