Andrew Shinnie, born on 17 July 1989 (age 37), is a Scottish central midfielder now with Stenhousemuir, where he wears number 22. His career has been built less on noise than on steady usefulness, with his best attacking league return coming at Inverness CT in 2012-13, when he scored 12 goals in 38 appearances.
That Inverness season remains the obvious high point in terms of end product. For a midfielder, 12 league goals is not decoration; it points to a player who could arrive in useful areas and finish his work rather than merely keep the ball moving politely.
In 2026-27, Shinnie has made two Championship appearances for Stenhousemuir, scoring once, and has also featured twice in the League Cup. Across all competitions for the club, he has four appearances and one goal. His current market value is around £43,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Shinnie’s career has been that of an established Scottish midfielder with a clear peak at Inverness and a later role at Stenhousemuir. It is a solid enough football life, without needing much dressing up.
