Scott Tanser

Scott Tanser of St Mirren was born in Blackpool, England on 23 October 1994 (age 30)

Scott Tanser, born on the 23rd of October 1994 in England, is a seasoned defender currently applying his trade for St Mirren Scotland. Tanser, standing at 5ft 11in (1.81 metres) and weighing in at 11 stone 2 pounds (71kg), dons the number 3 jersey for the Scottish side.

In July 2012, Tanser began his professional career joining Rochdale in the National League in England. During his first season, 2012-2013, Tanser made a single appearance in league matches. However, his presence rapidly grew as he made 30 first-team appearances and even scored a goal in season 2014-2015. His appearances for Rochdale fluctuated in subsequent seasons, making seven and five first-team appearances in the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 seasons respectively.

Tanser sought pastures new and in January 2017 transferred from Rochdale to another English side, Port Vale in League Two. He went on to make 11 first team appearances for Vale in the 2016-2017 season.

July 2017 marked a significant change in Tanser's career as he journeyed north of the border, transferring from Port Vale to St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership. His first season, 2017-2018, saw him make 29 appearances in league matches. Significant contributions followed in the 2018-2019, 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 seasons - netting a total of five goals and making numerous first-team appearances.

In July 2021, Tanser switched allegiances from St Johnstone to another Scottish Premiership side, St Mirren. Similar to his St Johnstone tenure, Tanser remained a first-team regular during his time at St Mirren, making 31, 30 and 38 first team appearances in the 2021-2022, 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 seasons individually. He also managed to score four goals during these seasons. Currently, in the 2024-2025 season, Tanser has made five first team appearances for St Mirren.

Beyond his league contributions, Tanser's also showcased his skills in various competitions such as the League Cup 2024-2025 for St Mirren with one start, the Scottish Cup 2023-2024 for St Mirren with two starts, and the Conference League Qualifiers 2024-2025 for St Mirren with one appearance as a substitute.

While Tanser's career never intersected with the Hoops directly, his extensive experience and consistent performance within the Scottish Premiership merits a certain degree of admiration from all who follow Scottish football intimately.
