James Bett (born 25 November 1959 in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire) is a Scottish former international professional association footballer. He played for nine seasons with Aberdeen and had shorter spells at other clubs in three countries. He played in central or left midfield.

Playing career

Bett was a Scottish Schoolboy international,[2] who started his club career with Gartcosh United, Dundee and Airdrieonians before moving to Icelandic side Valur in 1978. A year later he joined K.S.C. Lokeren (282) in Belgium.

Rangers manager John Greig paid £150,000 to sign him for the Glasgow club in 1980. In three seasons at Ibrox he won a Scottish Cup winners medal (1980–81)[3] and a League Cup winners medal (1981–82).[2] During this spell he also earned his first selection for the Scotland national side, making the first of 26 appearances in 1982.[4] Bett left Rangers in 1983 for a second spell with Lokeren.

Bett returned to his native land joining Alex Ferguson's Aberdeen in 1985 for £300,000.[2] During his time with the Dons, he collected winners medals in the Scottish Cup in 1985–86,[5] and both the League Cup and Scottish Cup in 1989–90,[6] also playing in three other finals in the former competition (all ending in defeat to Rangers).[7][8][9] He left Pittodrie in 1994, after making over 300 first-team appearances.

In 2003, Bett was inducted into the Aberdeen FC Hall of Fame as one of the founding members.[10]

He next moved to KR Reykjavík. He won the Icelandic Cup with KR but left at the end of the 1994 Icelandic season. Bett returned to Scotland again to join Hearts with whom he played the 1994–95 Scottish season. After a final season with Dundee United he retired.

Personal life

Bett met his Icelandic wife during his time playing for Valur and has maintained a close connection with Iceland since. His sons Baldur and Calum, also both professional footballers, were born there and have represented the country at Under-19 level.[11] Coincidentally, Bett's only goal for Scotland occurred in a 1–0 win over Iceland in Reykjavík in 1985.[11]
