Derek Stillie (born December 3, 1973 in Cumnock) is a Scottish footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for Dundee United in the Scottish Premier League.
Stillie began his career as a young player at Notts County Boys Club before signing with Aberdeen in August 1995 at the age of twenty-one. In four years with the Dons, he managed only twenty-six appearances and after four years at Pittodrie, he moved south to Wigan Athletic. At the Lancashire club he played 57 times, twice helping them reach the Division Two play-offs.
In July 2002, Stillie moved back north to Dunfermline where he was a virtual ever-present in the Pars side, making a total of 117 appearances after replacing first choice Marco Ruitenbeek in November that year. In 2003-04, Derek was part of the Dunfermline side that won through to the Scottish Cup Final but lost to Celtic.
Manager Gordon Chisholm made his second signing for season 2005-06 by bringing keeper Stillie to Tannadice from Dunfermline for an undisclosed fee,[1] after losing first-choice keeper Tony Bullock to Gillingham.[2]
Stillie has been named in two Scotland squads - most recently in October 2003 - but is yet to win a cap,[3] although he was an unused substitute in the Future Cup match against Germany later that month.
