Robbie Henderson (born 11 October 1982) is a former Scottish footballer, who plays as a defender although started his career in midfield.

Career

Henderson started his career on the books of Leeds United, before making his way to Scotland to sign for Scottish Premier League side Kilmarnock.

He never made an appearance for the Killie first team, partly due to a fractured eye socket at the hands of one of his team-mates,[1] but was sent out on loan to Raith Rovers, Brechin City and Queen of the South where he managed a few appearances at each club.

When he was released by Kilmarnock, he signed for Greenock Morton in the Scottish Football League Second Division as part of Peter Cormack and Dave McPherson's quickly put together side that were relegated to the bottom division. However, under John McCormack, Henderson won a championship medal for the third division.

After around 18 months at Morton, Henderson moved on to Stenhousemuir before leaving the senior game in 2007 to sign for Pollok in the juniors after a deal with Berwick Rangers fell through after one appearance, then on to Bo'ness United until he was transfer listed in July 2008.[2]

Robbie now stars for Cartside bellykickers.
