Scott Thomas Paterson (born 13 May 1972) is a Scottish professional
defender. He was most recently assistant manager of Partick Thistle. He played for numerous clubs in Scotland and England, including Liverpool, Carlisle United, Bristol City, Partick Thistle and Dundee United
.
Career
A product of the Scottish Highland Football League, Paterson began his professional career with his local Senior Club, Cove Rangers F.C. of the Scottish Highland Football League before winning a £15,000 move to
Cambridge United
during this period.
In the summer of 2000 he made the move to professional Scottish football when he signed for
2003–04 season also against Celtic.[8]
Further short spells in Scotland followed, including a brief loan spell back at Partick Thistle, before Paterson returned to his first, and home town
club, Cove Rangers F. C. who play just outside the City of Aberdeen, and back in the Highland Football League at the start of 2006–07. Paterson went on to be a youth coach at Aberdeen before linking up with former Dundee United colleague Gary Bollan at Livingston in September 2009.[9]
On 30 January 2013 he was appointed interim assistant manager, alongside Alan Archibald, at Partick Thistle.[10] He left Partick Thistle along with Archibald in October 2018 as the pair were relieved of their duties after a poor run of form.
In November 2021 Stephen Wright, the Head of academy for Dundee, revealed that Paterson had been assisting him at their Performance School.[11]
