He played for Airdrie, East Stirlingshire and Kilmarnock.[2][3][4] Collins captained Kilmarnock in the 1957 Scottish Cup Final.[5] After retiring as a player, Collins was manager of Airdrie, but resigned from that post in October 1970 due to the pressure of also working shift patterns in another job.[4]
