Rab Shannon was a full-back who spent the first nine years of his career with Dundee. He then joined Dunfermline Athletic in November 1991 and spent the rest of season 1991-92 and then season 1992-93 at East End Park. He went on to play for Motherwell, Dundee United, Hibernian, Newcastle Breakers in Australia and finally East Fife where he was player-manager.

A Scottish under 18 youth internationalist, Rab Shannon made his senior debut for Dundee in March 1985 and went on to make more than 250 appearances for the Dee over the next six years. He was also capped seven times at under 21 level.

After falling into dispute with Dundee Rab went on loan to Middlesbrough before being signed by Dunfermline in November 1991, Dundee receiving £125,000 plus Ian McCall and Eddie Gallagher.

Reliable rather than spectacular Rab made 75 appearances for Dunfermline, proving much more effective at full back than in midfield.

Sold to Motherwell for £85,000 in the summer of 1993, his two seasons at Fir Park were followed by a spell at Dundee United.
