Definitely a central midfielder here.  Part of the pretty abysmal post-2006 rebuild under Graham Rodger that included Ricky Ravenhill, Peter Beagrie and a ridiculously overweight Isaiah Rankin.

Seem to remember he came here with a bit of a reputation as one for the future and a few Blackburn fans were disappointed to see him leave as he was touted as the next big thing there.  Can't say I saw a lot in him to be honest.  Was pretty tidy on the ball but that was it, for a midfielder he never stamped his mark on any game.  

Comes across very bitter.  Managed 300 odd appearances at a professional level since leaving us nearly 12 years ago yet still holds some sort of resentment, might want to let that one go pal.

Nobody will remember much about him I imagine. Thought he was more important than he was and Buckley put him in his place so he saw his bottom and threw tantrums until he was allowed to leave. Apparently he's still not over being bought down a peg or two when he was a young lad with an ego.

Given a bit part player in our Nonleague promotion side went straight to a Scottish Premier side, Harkness has hardly had a glittering career since leaving the arseend of the Football League.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Oddly enough, I seem to recall that his better games for us tended to be at centre back. In the middle of the park, he was just too slow in both thought and deed to achieve anything. In English football, that is. I do remember that his lack of fitness was apparent also. No surprise that the Jocks have been so poor over the past decade if he can be a decent top division midfielder up there.

Didn't he have another whinge about us in the media some years back as well? Pillock.

I only remember him because i seem to recall him goading Town fans on Twitter when we were relegated to non league.

Let it go, pal.

Do you mind not being so stereotypical please. I have a very strong feminine side to my character.



No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Very disrespectful of him to call my home  Town,

I can call it because I was born and lived in it for over 35 years,

BUT

I don't I just say its home and will always be home.

Think he joined from Blackburn as a rising star.
The fact that he spend most of his time shuffling around Scottish football says as much about poor standards north of the border than it does about him.
