dbpprop:abstract
  • James Michael "Jimmy" Nicholl (born 28 December 1956 in Hamilton, Ontario) is a Canadian-born Northern Irish former footballer and, later, a manager. Nicholl won a total of 73 international caps for Northern Ireland, scoring once. He was mainly a right-back but could also play in other defensive roles. Nicholl started his career as a junior player at Manchester United. His senior career started in 1974. He helped the club win the 1977 FA Cup Final and collected a runners-up medal in the 1979 final. In 1981, he left the club after scoring five goals, joining Sunderland on a permanent contract after a loan spell, and playing 32 games in one season before moving to Toronto Blizzard in Canada, scoring 11 goals in 77 games over the next two years before signing for Rangers. In 1984, he returned to the English league to sign for West Bromwich Albion where he stayed until their relegation from the First Division in 1986, then returning to Rangers for three years, helping them win two Scottish league titles in the process. After leaving Rangers, he signed for Dunfermline Athletic in 1989 and was later player-manager of Raith Rovers, having originally joined them on 27 November 1990. He had great success at Raith, winning the Scottish League Cup on 27 November 1994 - four years to the day that he had arrived at the club, and six months later they reached the Scottish Premier Division as First Division champions. Due to their SFL Cup triumph, they qualified for the UEFA Cup and reached the second round, where they were eliminated by eventual winners Bayern Munich. In February 1996, Nicholl played one game for Bath City, a 3-0 defeat at home to Macclesfield Town. He was sent off after 55 minutes and never played for the club again. On 28 February 1996, Nicholl was appointed manager of Millwall, who just over two months earlier had been top of Division One but were now sliding down the table. He was unable to arrest the decline and Millwall slipped into Division Two on the last day of the season. He remained at Millwall until the following February, and six months after that returned to Raith Rovers. His second spell at Raith lasted two years, and ended on 14 June 1999 after he had failed to get them back into the top flight. A 28-day spell as manager of Dunfermline Athletic followed later in 1999, and he later served as assistant manager to Jimmy Calderwood at East End Park. In May 2004, Nicholl followed Calderwood when he took over as manager at Aberdeen, again serving as his assistant until the two parted company with the club in May 2009.
