Scott Paterson (born 13 May 1972 in Aberdeen) is a Scottish footballer who currently plays in defence for Highland League side Cove Rangers.

[edit] Career

Paterson began his career with local side Cove Rangers before winning a £15,000 move to Graeme Souness's Liverpool in March 1992. After two full seasons at Anfield, Paterson spent four years with Bristol City, before embarking on a series of moves around Britain which saw him spend no more than a season at any one club. Between 2001 and 2003, Paterson managed 68 league games for Partick Thistle, which won a move to Dundee United. Although his time at Tannadice was similar, Paterson was injured in his second match for the club and spent almost his entire time injured, appearing briefly in the final match of the 2004–05 season. Further short spells in Scotland followed, before Paterson returned to his first club Cove at the start of 2006–07.
