Club career
Milne was born in York, North Yorkshire. He joined Leeds United at the age of nine and went on to become Head Boy and Captain of the Under 18s. Around this time, he also obtained international caps for the Scotland under-18 & 19's team and broke into Gary McAllister’s Leeds United first team squad.
Milne spent 10 years with the Leeds United's Academy system and was involved with the first team in the 2009 pre-season friendly matches. On 26 November 2009, Milne signed for Darlington on loan for three months, at the same time as Chesterfield defender Danny Hall and midfielder Paul Harsley. Milne made his debut in the Football League on 5 December 2009, playing the whole of the 1–0 home defeat against Bradford City, earning man of the match. In his second game, a 5–0 defeat to Torquay United, he sustained an ankle injury and was replaced by midfielder Josh Gray. He returned to Leeds to recover from his injury.
