Career

Livingston

A product of Livingston's youth system, Jamieson made his debut for the first-team on 27 April 2010 in a 2–0 home win over Albion Rovers in the Scottish Third Division.[1] His next appearance came the following season on 7 May 2011 in a 3–1 away win against Alloa Athletic in the Scottish Second Division.[2] Over the next couple of seasons, he was mainly utilised as reserve keeper in the first-team. He made three consecutive Scottish First Division appearances towards the end of season 2012–13, keeping two clean sheets in those three matches. Darren has now cemented his place as the number 1 goalkeeper at Livingston and in his first season as #1 has saved a club record five penalties. Darren was awarded both supporters young player and play of the year at the end of the season.[3]

After Rangers goalkeeper Liam Kelly signed on loan with Livingston at the beginning of the 2016–17 season, Jamieson was sent on loan to Scottish Junior Football East Region Super League side Bo'ness United.[4]

Jamieson was released by Livingston on 31 August 2016.[5] Livingston said that he had been released in order to join Premiership club Hamilton Academical,[6] but he was not a Hamilton squad member by 9 September.[7] He finally signed for Hamilton later that month, after a spell with Bo'ness.[8]

Jamieson was one of seven first-team players released by Hamilton at the end of the 2017–18 season,[9] and he then signed with League One club Arbroath.[10]
