* Appearances (Goals)

Barry Nicholson (born 24 August 1978 in Dumfries) is a Scottish professional football midfielder currently playing in the Scottish Premier League for Aberdeen. He started his career at the team he supported as a boy, Rangers, but limited appearances in the first team saw him join Dunfermline Athletic under the helm of Jimmy Calderwood. Nicholson's performances at East End Park saw him signed by Aberdeen for a fee of £250,000 on July 2005 and re-joined former boss Calderwood who had since moved to Pittodrie. The move paid dividends as his strong performances towards the end of the 2006/2007 season scoring vital goals. The most notable of these goals is the last minute equaliser against Hearts, which all but clinched 3rd place for Aberdeen, with only two matches of the season left at that stage. On 31 October 2007, Barry scored the first hat-trick of his career, by scoring three goals against Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the quarter finals of the CIS Cup. Interestingly, two of these goals were penalties though. Nicholson has won 3 caps for Scotland, the last being in the friendly defeat to Sweden in November 2004 where he a gave a great performance.
