Scotland 'Scot' Gemmill (born 2 January 1971 in Paisley) is a Scottish former professional football (soccer) player. He played as a midfielder, most recently for the now-defunct club New Zealand Knights. He is the son of former Scottish international footballer Archie Gemmill.

Domestic career

He started his career at Nottingham Forest under the legendary Brian Clough and played there for nine years, making nearly 250 appearances before moving to Everton in 1999. By 2004, Gemmill was finding it harder to keep his place in the Everton team, and was loaned out to Preston North End, where he featured seven times. Shortly afterwards, just three appearances short of 100 for Everton, he left Merseyside to join Leicester City. After two years with "The Foxes", where he played just seventeen times and hadn't featured for a year, he joined Oxford United in March 2006 as player-coach. Gemmill stayed for the final few weeks of the season, making one appearance. Shortly afterwards, he joined New Zealand Knights. He has now retired from football and resides in New Zealand with his wife.

International career

Gemmill featured in several Scotland squads but found himself largely on the fringes, and most of his caps came as a substitute; he only managed two 90-minute appearances for his country. Gemmill was part of the Scotland squads for the 1996 European Championships and 1998 World Cup but failed to make an appearance in either, a situation he described for the latter as "bittersweet" and "heartbreaking" cite news
