After a number of years working in the financial services industry, Tony decided on a change of career and enrolled at the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen. This resulted in Tony graduating with a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy in the summer of 2011.

Tony then joined the staff at Spartans towards the end of the 2011 season. After a lifelong interest in football, both playing and spectating, it was a natural progression to move into becoming the physiotherapist of a football team. Tony also holds a Sports First Aid qualification.
