Bruce Anderson on his Aberdeen exit leap of faith, inspiring others with diabetes and why he's thriving at Livingston

Quick quiz question: Which Scottish player has scored the most Premiership goals so far this season?

Clue one. He’s in third spot in the overall chart with 11, behind Ross County’s Regan Charles-Cook and Alfredo Morelos at Rangers.
