Former Celtic player set for English Championship after sealing dream promotion

Jamie Lindsay has won promotion to the English Championship with Rotherham United after helping the Millers secure second spot in League One.

Paul Warne's side won 2-0 at Gillingham - who were relegated as a consequence - on Saturday thanks to goals from Rarmani Edmonds-Green and Georgie Kelly.

Former Hamilton pair Hakeem Odoffin and Mickel Miller also former part of their squad this term

It cemented their spot in runners-up to Wigan Athletic with a needed victory, finishing one point above MK Dons in third, and they won 5-0 against Plymouth.

Lindsay - who was born in Rutherglen and also brought up in Larkhall - didn't feature in the match but the Celtic academy graduate has played 35 times across all competitions.

After coming through the ranks at Celtic Park, the midfielder spent time with Dumbarton, Morton, and Ross County on loan before a permanent move to Dingwall.

His form in the Highlands won him his move to England with Rotherham in 2019 and he has so far made exactly 100 appearances.

There's a decision to be made on a contract that expires next month to come as Rotherham prepare for second tier life again.
