Tommy spent the entire 1999-00 season with the club and was a regular starter in our central midfield throughout the campaign, helping the team to a very respectable 4th placed finished in the Second Division. The following season saw Tommy leave the club in mid-September to join fellow Second Division side Stranraer as a player-coach, and he would go on to have spells managing Glenafton Athletic and Kilbirnie Ladeside during the 2000s.
