Andrew 'Andy' Steven Jackson (born 9 January 1988) is a Scottish born Irish football player who plays as a striker for Brechin City.

Career

Club

Jackson started his career with St Johnstone. He made his league debut on 14 August 2004, in a 3–1 defeat against Queen of the South at McDiarmid Park.[1] During the 2005–06 season, Jackson was loaned out to Cowdenbeath,[2] with whom he scored four goals in thirteen league appearances, and Forfar Athletic,[3] scoring five goals in thirteen appearances.

Jackson scored his first senior goal for St Johnstone on 5 September 2007 in their 2–0 victory over Ross County in the Scottish Challenge Cup.[4] Jackson was awarded the Young Player of the Month for January 2008 after scoring in three consecutive games (against Raith Rovers, Dunfermline Athletic and Stirling Albion).[5] Jackson missed most of the 2008–09 season with an Achilles tendon injury as St Johnstone won the First Division. In July 2009 he was taken to hospital suffering from a bowel complaint that had first troubled him in April 2008, and also hindered his fitness in 2008–09.[6]

Jackson was released by Saints in summer 2011, and played for Greenock Morton for one season before being released in May 2012.[7] Shortly afterwards he signed a deal with Second Division side Brechin City.[8][9] Jackson scored on his début for Brechin, in a Challenge Cup tie against Third Division side Rangers.[10] On 15 April 2014, Jackson signed a new one-year contract at Brechin.[11]

International

He has represented the Republic of Ireland at under-18, under-19 and under-21 level. He made his under–21 début against Austria on 19 August 2008, playing for 63 minutes in a 1–1 draw.[12]
