[edit] Career

Having been developed as a player through Dundee United's youth scheme, he turned professional with the club in July 1999. He was given his debut by then-manager Alex Smith in December 2001, when he was used as a right wing back in a match at Kilmarnock, and went on to make nine appearances that season. In 2002-03, Duff had his best run of league games, playing 34 times. When Ian McCall was appointed at the start of the 2003-04 season, Duff found himself more often as a substitute, playing in just 18 league games. The following season, Duff played 25 league games and picked up a Scottish Cup runners-up medal after playing in the 1-0 defeat to Celtic. In 2005-06, with Gordon Chisholm the new manager, Duff played more first team games, with 29 league appearances. Duff scored an important goal in the 1-0 win over Rangers at Ibrox during the season, which helped United avoid relegation. Duff started the 2006/07 season as an attacking midfielder under Craig Brewster and has scored once, against St Mirren, although been used in a variety of defensive roles under Craig Levein.

Duff has represented Scotland 10 times in under-21 internationals.
