Neill Collins Football player
Neil William Collins (born 2 September 1983) is a Scottish footballer, who currently plays as a defender for League One side Sheffield United. Born in Troon, Scotland, he is a former Scotland U21 and Scotland B international. Collins started his playing career in his native Scotland with Queen's Park before moving to Dumbarton. A transfer to English side Sunderland followed in 2004 but he failed to establish himself in the first team during his three-year spell on Wearside. After loan moves to Hartlepool United and Sheffield United he was loaned to Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he became a first team regular and signed a permanent deal in 2007. Following Wolves' promotion to the Premier League Collins fell out of favour and moved on loan again, this time to Preston North End, but although they signed him permanently in 2010, Collins was never a regular and quickly moved to Leeds United, with whom he won promotion to the Championship in 2010. After losing his place the following season Collins returned to Sheffield United, one of his former loan clubs, for whom he made over 100 appearances.
