Armstrong moved into Junior football with Troon[6] to gain experience of regular first-team football after a long education with Ayr United. His versatility has seen him used at right-back, centre-back & midfield, but he won the Player of the Year award in season 2012-13 at left-back and has been most consistently used here since.
