Bio Extra

Promotion to the Premier League brought on end to the central defensive partnership of Jim Duffy and Gordon Rae. Chisholm was brought in from Dundee to help replace them. He started the season in the first team but it soon became clear that his future lay on the coaching side. He enjoyed a period as an SFA community coach before being appointed assistant manager to Murdo MacLeod. Went on to become assistant manager at Ross County after leaving a similar position at Clydebank.
