But, when players are on good contract, you have to go to them almost tongue in cheek and ask them if they will take a pay-off and leave. A lot of players said no. A thug brutally stabbed a man as he slept in his bed after a row over how a female friend had been treated at a house party.

Paterson has had more success as a manager, winning several competitions in the Highland League with several clubs and his very fruitful 7-year spell at Inverness Caledonian Thistle leading them from the Scottish Third Division to the Scottish First Division and a famous cup upset over Celtic. David Mitchell, 32, had 104 images of the most graphic kind on his mobile phone, Inverness Sheriff Court was told. It’s 21 years since Caledonian Thistle came into existence. Two decades on, the club is a real force in Scottish football. Where will we be in the next 20 years? Who knows, but you’ve certainly not heard the last of us. This is no flash in the pan. Caley Thistle are here to stay. Meanwhile, down at Pittodrie, Duncan had hatched a cover-up story to protect me claiming I had been laid low with stomach pains. His finest hour and a half came at Celtic Park in February 2000, when he steered Inverness Caledonian Thistle to a 3-1 Scottish Cup victory over Celtic.

November 2002: Caley claim Paterson approached by Dundee United to succeed Alex Smith. Paterson and assistant Duncan Shearer agree to stay on and are given new five-year contracts. But these remain unsigned.

He said: “We had flown up from Sydney for our latest match. There was a lot of travel across Australia with the games taking place against teams who were hundreds of miles away and we grew used to hanging around in airports waiting to collect our stuff. I was very much into gambling. I was very much into drinking. But I pulled off the football because you can put on a mask and function when inside you're in turmoil. It’s alleged that the 52-year-old lifted a collie dog by the tail “unsupported” before “swinging it about” on September 1, last year. The former Dons striker returned to Pittodrie as assistant to Paterson in December 2002, but his second spell with the club proved to be a rollercoaster ride of emotions. That’s my own opinion. I told Oshor that we were done and, sure enough, we came in a couple of days later for a meeting to be told it was over.FOOTBALL boss Steve Paterson's battle with booze reached a new low - when he missed a match after an all-night binge. While boss at Inverness Caley Thistle, he once missed the team bus to Falkirk because he had been so drunk the night before. His management career began in 1988 in the Highland League with Elgin City. Primarily a player-manager in his first season, Paterson had a successful stint at Borough Briggs winning the Highland League, the North of Scotland Cup twice and the Northern version of the Scottish Qualifying Cup. He left the club in 1990 due to a contract disagreement with regards to wages. I decided I could not face the waiting paparazzi as I didn't want my mother and my daughters seeing me traipsing out of Pittodrie carrying bin bags of belongings.

He played a major part in setting on the path to be the club we are today. This club truly is his legacy. Eric Shand, 20, carried out the assault at the victim’s home in the Woodside area of Aberdeen on July 30 2020. On dry land, I ran faster than I've ever done as my mind tried to take in the fact this crazy man had just tried to kill me. I was exceedingly grateful to the club because it was a shameful incident. Maybe I should have taken the road to resignation because I had humiliated the club and betrayed their trust in me. I wrestle with that issue regularly." He went on: "In the meantime, despite regular counselling sessions, I could not arrest my twin problems.I didn't know what to do. This, I believed, was the end of my fledgling career as manager of Aberdeen. Paterson said: "I was 13 and this young man, five years older, seemed to latch onto much younger boys he knew he could influence.
