RobRoyGuy Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Got a bet on the go with a smart arse at work , 20 quid and a years worth of gloating for me if i can prove him wrong . We were having a discussion on how many junior players have gone on to play in the spl since the spl came into being some 13-14 years ago and how many spl players later in there career have gone on to play in the juniors . What sparked this debate was an article on ex Rob roy winger Grant Anderson now at Hamilton and how he is eyeing up spl football with the accies . I have till Friday as that's the next time i next see him to come up with 15 names , I told him I could get 20 but 15 will do for me to win the bet . Off the top of my head I currently have , Marvin Andrews , Rob roy , rangers , Livingston Dougie imrie , lanark , Hamilton Gordon Greer , port Glasgow , kilmarnock I have question marks over three more players which I will name later when I have more time . So if you know any I can add to my list then please post them , remember only since the spl came into being some 13 or so years ago not before that .

Cowden til i die Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Jay Shields (Hibs) and John Stewart(Aberdeen) both of Bo'ness. I assume that's what you are looking for. Edit: Mark Corcoran too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTG Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Marc Corcoran I think. Tayport, Linlithgow, Hamilton, St Mirren and possibly Ross County next season. Not sure about Greg Denham - I think he may qualify - Motherwell to Linlithgow Rose. I assume loan players don't or won't count. We had none!!

Cowden til i die Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Kevin Milne, Haddington, came on once as a sub for Aberdeen in 1998/99. Eddie Annand is also one having played with Dundee. There will be over 50 IMO. Charnley is NOT one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden til i die Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 John Paul Mcbride must be one too. Shields has played in the SPL so if he has played junior he is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
