Mick McCarthy returned to his former club, Sunderland, to secure the services of Neill Collins initially on loan, in November 06, until the signing became a permanent one two months later for a fee of £150,000.
The23-year-old defender moved to Wearside under McCarthy, and made his debut for the Black Cats shortly after his transfer from Dumbarton, in August 2004.
Neill, who joined Dumbarton from Queens Park, spent spells on loan at Hartlepool and Sheffield United last season and is a Scottish under 21 international.
During 2006//07 he featured at both right-back and in the centre of defence. The current campaign has been much the same and Neill has also popped up with a couple of goals.
