Ian Cameron (born 24 August 1966 in Glasgow, Scotland) is a former Scottish footballer. He is currently a first team coach at Partick Thistle and manages the Under-19s, having previously coached their Under-17 team.[1] Ian Cameron sat his economics exams at Glasgow University on the morning of the 1987 Scottish Cup Final, in which he played, and now combines his accountancy work with his coaching career.[2]

Playing career

St Mirren

Ian Cameron joined St Mirren as an S-Form signing. In 1987, at the age of 21, he was part of the team who won the Scottish Cup after beating Dundee United in the Final.[2]

Aberdeen

He signed for Aberdeen in the summer of 1989 and made his debut against Albion Rovers in a Scottish League Cup tie.[3] Cameron scored the winner against Celtic at Hampden in the semi-final of the Skol Cup but missed out on playing in the final after suffering concussion in a league game against Hearts prior to the Final. He did pick up a winners medal though. First team opportunities were limited for him at Aberdeen, and he left in 1992.

Partick Thistle

John Lambie signed Cameron on the eve of the 92/93 season, Thistle's first back in the Premier League, he missed just two games scoring five times from midfield as Thistle defied the critics to stay in the top division. Cameron was also part of the Thistle sides that did the same in each of the following two seasons before the heart breaking play-off defeat at Tannadice in May 1996 meant relegation for Thistle. With just 40 seconds remaining it looked as if Cameron's second half penalty would keep Thistle in the Premier league for another season but fate decreed otherwise. He Joined Hibs that summer before moving to Raith Rovers.[4]

Later career

He later played for Hibernian, Raith Rovers, Clyde, Clydebank and Airdrieonians, before retiring in 2001 aged 35.

Coaching career

Ian Cameron coached Rangers FC Under-16s before moving to Partick Thistle to take over their Under-17s. He then stepped up to the Thistle Under-19s, winning the SFL League Cup, and then moving into a first team coach position under Ian McCall. His daughter Kayleigh also became a footballer with Celtic Ladies[5] and Glasgow City.[6]
