p:abstract
  • Alastair Dawson (born February 25, 1958 in Johnstone) is a retired Scottish professional football defender who spent most of his career at Rangers. Dawson was signed as a 16 year old in 1975 by manager Jock Wallace and made his debut in a pre-season tour in Canada. He was a full back who could play on either side of the pitch, and soon became the club captain.He never went on to fulfill his potential, partly because of a serious injury sustained during another club tour of Canada, when he fractured his skull. He recovered, and became a centre back. He made a total of 316 appearances for Rangers, scoring 8 goals. He received two Scottish Cup winner's medals, in 1979 and 1981, and four League Cup winner's medals - in 1979, 1984, 1985 and 1987. He was capped 5 times for Scotland, all while at Rangers. After 12 years at the club, Dawson left Rangers for Blackburn Rovers in 1987 for £25,000. He returned to Scotland in 1990 for a season with Airdrie, before becoming Player/Manager of Maltese league club Luxol St. Andrews. He went on to manage Hamilton Accies for a three year spell between 1999 and 2003 where he won the Scottish Third Division title. (en)
