[edit] Playing career
Craig Robertson was born in Dunfermline in 1963. He joined Raith Rovers in 1981, and stayed with the Kirkcaldy-based club until 1987, when he was signed by his home town club Dunfermline Athletic. After a year at Dunfermline, he was signed by Aberdeen in December 1988.[1] First team opportunities were limited at Pittodrie, and so in 1991 he was re-signed by Dunfermline, where he remained until he retired from playing in 1998.
[edit] Later career
After retiring, Robertson later became assistant manager at Dunfermline Athletic, and became caretaker manager in 2006 following the resignation of Jim Leishman.[2] In 2008, he returned to Aberdeen after being appointed as chief scout, where he remains today.[3]
