Career

Little began his youth career on the books of the Ayr United youth squad and Ardrossan Winton Rovers, and he captained Scotland schoolboys under-18s in season 2006-07.

When he moved into the senior game, he featured on the subs bench[1] for the Partick Thistle first team several times to cover for injury under Ian McCall.

Little was sent on a month's loan to Queen's Park on 17 September 2008 as he was too old to play for the Firhill side's under 19 side.[2]

Ricky joined up with Queen's Park again on loan for 2 months in November 2009. Following his release from the Jags in Jan 2010, Ricky signed for Queen's Park until the end of the season.[3] Ricky signed again for Queens Park at the beginning of season 2010/11 and was nominated for PFA player of the year at the end of a season that also saw him captain the club.

After spending 3 years at Queen's Park, Arbroath manager Paul Sheerin signed Little to replace Stuart Malcolm who signed for Forfar Athletic.
