Biography

Pauline had a long and illustrious playing career, gaining 141 caps for Scotland and winning a host of club honours. Her senior career started with Cumbernauld Ladies, where she spent 13 years. In April 1992 she made her Scotland debut against England in a European Championship qualifier. Spells at Stenhousemuir Ladies, where she won the Scottish Women’s Cup, and Kilmarnock Ladies (where she won the cup again and scored in the final) followed.

In the summer of 2001 Pauline spent time playing for IBV in the Úrvalsdeild kvenna – the top tier of women’s football in Iceland. Her time there was a huge success, as she scored 16 goals. In 2002, Pauline returned to Scotland and signed for Hibernian. In her three seasons with the Hibees she won two more Scottish Cups and in 2004 made her debut in European competition.

Two seasons with Doncaster Rovers Belles, another short stint at Hibernian, and a season at Blackburn Rovers followed. In August 2007, Pauline made history by becoming the first player to earn 100 caps for the Scotland Women’s team. A few months later she won her 103rd cap, overtaking Kenny Dalglish's record of 102 and becoming Scotland's most capped footballer of all time – a record now held by Gemma Fay. Her last Scotland appearance was in 2010.

Pauline’s playing career ended in 2011 after spells with Spartans Women and Celtic. She was ready to move into coaching, and had already made a small bit of history when in 2003 she became the first female coach at Rangers, after being appointed in a youth development role. She took on the role of head coach of the Scotland Under-17s in 2010 and completed her UEFA A Licence in 2013. She led the team to two European Championships, in 2013 and 2017.
