Kenny Miller

The following Saturday, Wolves beat Manchester United 1–0 with Miller scoring the winner in the 65th minute.

Miller then grabbed a last minute equaliser against Liverpool the following Wednesday.

Despite starting many games from then on in a striker's role, those were Miller's only Premier League goals and Wolves were relegated at the end of the season.

Kenneth Miller (born 23 December 1979) is a Scottish professional football coach and former player.

Miller, who played as a striker, is one of only five post-war players to have played for both Rangers and Celtic.

Miller grew up in Musselburgh and got his big break when he signed for local side Hibernian; he made his debut against Motherwell in the 1997–98 season.

A loan spell at Stenhousemuir saw Miller score five doubles—10 goals—in 13 league and Scottish Cup games, before he returned to Hibernian to establish himself as a regular player.

Highlights of his four years at the club included being the club's top scorer in season 1999–2000 and receiving the Scottish PFA Young Player of the Year award in 2000.

Miller signed for Rangers at a cost of £2 million on 26 June 2000, signing a five-year contract.

He made his debut in a 4–1 win over FBK Kaunas on 26 July during a Champions League qualifier.

His first goal came on 5 August 2000 during a league match away to Kilmarnock, scoring the third in a 4–2 win.

Three months later, Miller netted five goals (a Scottish Premier League record) during a 7–1 win against St Mirren.

More goals followed against AS Monaco and Aberdeen and helped him to a tally of ten goals from just fourteen games, all coming before the turn of the year.

Miller was a regular Scotland international player from his debut in 2001 until his retirement in 2013.

He often played as an isolated lone striker, scoring 18 goals in 69 appearances.

Miller began his coaching career briefly as player-manager for Livingston, and later in Australia as assistant coach of the Newcastle Jets and Western Sydney Wanderers.

He has since had stints as an assistant manager with both Falkirk and Huddersfield Town.

Chances became limited thereafter and, as the season came to a close, he netted only once more against Brechin City in a Scottish Cup match on 27 January 2001.

This proved to be his final strike that season.

Miller had made a total of 38 appearances and scored 11 goals for Rangers.

In September 2001, Miller went to Wolverhampton Wanderers on a three-month loan, scoring against Gillingham and Walsall.

However, after just five appearances, Miller broke his collarbone in a fall.

In December 2001, Wolves secured him on a permanent transfer at a cost of £3 million, on a four-and-a-half-year deal.

In 2002–03 Miller found himself back in the Wolves starting 11, but he had only managed six goals in 19 starts.

However, during the final six months of the season he scored 18 goals in his final 24 appearances of that campaign, including in the play-off final that saw the club win promotion.

Miller began his career at Hibernian before moving on to Rangers then to the English side Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he won his first career honour, the 2003 First Division play-off final.

After five seasons with Wolverhampton, Miller returned to Scotland, signing for the other side of the Old Firm – Celtic.

He finished his only full season at Celtic with SPL and Scottish Cup winners medals.

After one season with Derby County, he returned to Scotland and to Rangers, winning back-to-back SPL titles, the Scottish Cup and the Scottish League Cup in his two full seasons.

In the 2003–04 season, Miller started off in the physiotherapy room; it was not until October that he made his first Premier League start.

He played in a 4–5–1 formation for the following few months, situated in a right-wing role.

This led to frustration on Miller's part, and his only goals up until January came in the League Cup, against Burnley, and a double against Kidderminster Harriers in the FA Cup on 13 January.

In the summer of 2004, Miller handed in a transfer request over lack of first team opportunities.

Despite having a tense relationship with the Wolves manager, Dave Jones, he started the 2004–05 season in good form for the club scoring seven goals in his first 10 games at Wolves.

The appointment of Glenn Hoddle signalled a new start for Miller, and he formed a successful partnership with Carl Cort, ending the 2004–05 season with 20 goals.

In summer 2005, his form attracted the attention of the newly promoted Premier League team Sunderland, but Wolves rejected their £1m and £1.2m offers and Miller began the new season as a Wolves player.

He moved to Turkish club Bursaspor in January 2011, but returned to the UK later that year, signing for Cardiff City.

After one season with Cardiff, Miller played in Major League Soccer for Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

He had a third spell with Rangers between 2014 and 2018.

After a very brief spell as player/manager of Livingston, Miller played for Dundee and Partick Thistle.
