Bio Extra

Ross, a right back, began his professional career with St Mirren under 20s before joining Partick Thistle's equivalent in the close season of 2013. In his trial game at Livingston, the 18-year-old got a taste of the Thistle first team when he came on for Stephen O'Donnell with 7 minutes remaining. It was a feisty affair for a pre-season friendly with a few yellow cards being shown, and Ross was at the centre of the action when he was hacked down by Livingston’s Jason Talbot, causing a fair degree of carnage and argy bargy. There was no need for that Talbot, you clown!

After Thistle, Ross spent four years as a Warrior leading Stenhousemuir into League One through the play-offs in 2017-18. Following spells at Darvel and Forfar, he returned to Ochilview in May 2023, where he is highly regarded. Away from the football, Ross is a bit of a tradesman, qualified as a tiler, plasterer and electrician.
