Scott "Scotty" Miller (born 18 May 1972 in Perth, Western Australia) is an Australian retired football player, who is the coach of Cockburn City Football Club.

Club career

After a long career in the West Australian state leagues - including a stint with the short-lived Perth Kangaroos in the Singapore Premier League - Miller began his professional career in 1994 with the Morwell Falcons in the National Soccer League.

Miller was lauded as one of the best players' in the Falcons line-up as they made the 1994-95 NSL finals, and despite playing only two seasons with the Gippsland-based club, was named in the club's "Team of the NSL era" at the Falcons' 50th anniversary event in 2011.

He last played as a left full back for the Australian A-League club Perth Glory. He earned 2 caps for the Australian national team and was an inaugural player for the Perth Glory in 1996.

Managerial career

In July 2013, Miller re-joined Glory's coaching staff, signing on for two seasons.[1] On 17 June 2014, he was axed from Perth Glory, along with Gareth Naven, after a review of the coaching structure.[2]

Cockburn City

Ahead of the 2016 season, Miller returned to his head coach role at Cockburn City.[3]
