In this festive edition of Christmas Crackers, we recognise a player whose loyalty and effort have helped set standards at Rutherglen Glencairn AFC.

Cammy Thomson has been a familiar figure across the Premier League for a number of seasons. Whether in midfield or supporting the team behind the scenes, his contribution has remained consistent.

A Decade of Loyalty: From Newlands to Glencairn

In an era where players often jump from club to club, Cammy’s journey is a rare example of dedication.

• The Foundation: Cammy spent at least 10 years with Newlands, becoming a cornerstone of their squad.

• The Transition: Two years ago, when Newlands transitioned into Rutherglen Glencairn AFC, Cammy remained the heartbeat of the team.

• The Status: Now one of the longest-serving players in the entire Premier League, his experience is the “star on top of the tree” for the Rutherglen side.

A Proven Winner 🏆

You don’t survive at the top of the Premier League for 12 years without serious talent. As an attacking threat from midfield, Cammy has a knack for big moments. His trophy cabinet proves it, boasting two Premier League Cup winner’s medals—a feat many players only dream of.

The Ultimate Clubman: More Than Just a Player

While Cammy’s footwork on the pitch is impressive, his work off the pitch is what makes him a “Christmas Cracker” in the eyes of the club. As a Committee Member, Cammy takes the weight off the manager’s shoulders by handling:

1. Comet Administration: Navigating the digital side of the game.

2. Player Registrations: Ensuring the squad is ready to go every Saturday.

“one of the league’s most reliable figures who deserves to be honoured. His help with registrations is a massive boost for the management team.”

Why He’s Our Festive Feature

Cammy Thomson’s value to Rutherglen Glencairn AFC goes beyond what he does on the pitch. Alongside his performances, he takes on responsibilities that help keep the club running week to week. That combination of contribution and commitment is why he’s become such an important figure within the squad.

Merry Christmas to Cammy and everyone at Rutherglen Glencairn!
