Club career
Findlay started his career in the youth academy of St Johnstone, joining the club when he was 14 years old.[1] He moved to Livingston in 2001. However he didn't make his first senior team appearance until 2002 during a loan spell at East Stirling. The Shire fell to a 4-1 defeat to East Fife on 10 August 2002.[2]
He signed for Cowdenbeath in 2004 on a short term deal but failed to make an appearance for the club.
Findlay had a short spell at Alloa under Allan Maitland. Findlay was "badly at fault" as Alloa threw away a two-goal lead during one of his rare appearances, against Ayr United in 2007. "All the goals were saveable," Maitland said post-match.[3]
The goalkeeper signed for Clyde in 2010 and made two appearances.[4]
Coaching career
Findlay is currently head goalkeeper coach at St Johnstone.[5]
