Playing career

Born in Blairgowrie, the big Scotsman was signed by Aston Villa a month shy of his 15th birthday.[1][2]

Only making 14 appearances for Villa, he was sold to David Pleat's Luton Town in 1978 as a replacement for Milija Aleksic. He starred for Luton as they won the Second Division in 1981–82.[1][2]

Findlay was constantly tipped to play for Scotland, but was never called up. Findlay fractured his thumb in 1983, and by the time he had recovered Luton had signed Les Sealey. Findlay moved on to Swindon Town in 1985, and after spells with Peterborough, Portsmouth and Coventry he retired from the game.[1][2]

gollark: It doesn't look like it, though, as the code really only does much if an error occurs.
gollark: So I remembered recently that potatOS embeds some sort of stack trace thing based on one in MBS, and it might actually somehow be *that* doing this.
gollark: I'm not sure about infinitely, but IIRC there's no per-computer limit.
gollark: RAM use.
gollark: It seems like the problem is some somewhat broken optimization, where `pcall` somehow directly executes the real `getfenv`, ignorant of environments, if you have a function which only (or something like that?) calls a builtin. Or possibly not only builtins.
