Jonathan Baillie
Jonathan Baillie (born 2 September 1985) is the former Manager of Troon F.C. in the SJFA West Region Premiership. Playing career Baillie, a central defender, made his Hibernian debut during the 2003–04 season when manager Bobby Williamson drafted him into defence for a League Cup quarter-final match against Celtic in December 2003, which the 18-year-old Baillie helped his side win 2–1. Injuries meant that he didn't get a prolonged spell in the first team.

He had a brief loan spell at Ayr United in January 2006, but did not play a first-team game for Hibernian in over two and a half years.

Scottish Premier League
The Scottish Premier League (SPL) was the top level league competition for professional football clubs in Scotland. The league was founded in 1998, when it broke away from the Scottish Football League (SFL). It was abolished in 2013, when the SPL and SFL merged to form the new Scottish Professional Football League, with its top division being known as the Scottish Premiership. A total of 19 clubs competed in the SPL, but only the Old Firm clubs - Celtic and Rangers - won the league championship.
