Life and playing career

Cormack was born in Liverpool during his father's time with the Merseyside club. Following his father's return to Scotland, Cormack jr. started his career at the start of the 1990s with Edinburgh club Meadowbank Thistle, making two league appearances. He signed for Newcastle United but failed to make a first-team appearance and returned to Scotland in 1994 with Greenock Morton. Cormack was part of the Scottish Second Division-winning side in his first season, and he went on to make over seventy league appearances before loan spells at Raith Rovers and Stirling Albion at the end of his Morton career in 1999. After signing for Clydebank on a short-term deal at the start of 1999-00, he left to join Ross County,[1] where he spent the second part of the season. Two-year spells with Stenhousemuir[2] and Albion Rovers followed before a year out of the senior game with Bo'ness United. Cormack returned to senior football in 2005 with Arbroath on a short-term deal,[3] which proved to be his last club.

He now works as a financial adviser in Edinburgh and on a part-time basis for the Press Association.
