[edit] Career

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.

Former Dundee United 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.
