Biog

A graduate of Celtic’s youth system goalkeeper Stewart Kerr played 40 games for the club during an eight year career at Parkhead.

He made his debut under Tommy Burns in season 1996-97 when he became the first choice keeper. But injuries meant he struggled to maintain a regular run in the first team in the following season as he battled it out with Gordon Marshall and latterly Jonathan Gould for the No1 jersey.

By the time of Martin O'Neill's arrival as Celtic boss he was fourth choice custodian and in 2001 he left to join Wigan.

His luck with injuries persisted at Wigan and he damaged a disk in his back training in October 2001. Despite attempting to recover from this injury he continued to have persistent back problems and following advice he decided to retire in 2003.

In pre-season 04/05 he attempted to make a return to the game with Kilmarnock but following further problems he completely retired from the game.

We wish him all the best for the future. From the start of his career to the end at Celtic, he saw the club go through an amazing transformation, and he played his small part in it.

Stewart Kerr is currently (08/09) on the coaching staff at Partick Thistle.
