Jamieson started his career as a junior player in Wellington, New Zealand, playing for North Wellington AFC in 1981, aged seven.
At the age of 26 he became a player for the Cook Islands, his mother's birth country. He played in the Cooks for one-year and coached Tupapa Maraerenga F.C.[3] before returning to Wellington to play for Wellington Diamond United.[4]
He played there for five years, until the age of 31.
In 2005, he joined Nadi F.C. in the Inter-district Cup Tournament (IDC).[citation needed]
He received man of the match awards in the two biggest internationals of his career: against Australia in 2000 and against New Zealand in 2004. Cook Islands lost 17–0[5] and 2–0, respectively.[citation needed]
Jamieson made his international debut for the Cook Islands in 2000.[6] In 2010, Jamieson became infamous after sitting with the ball for over minute during a 2–0 defeat to Fiji.[7]
In November 2011, Jamieson was appointed as technical director of the Cook Islands Football Association.[8] In 2013 he formed Football Cook Islands, a group of passionate, long-term football supporters, players, qualified coaches and club officials, concerned about the way football is currently being managed by the national association CIFA.[9] He was subsequently suspended by CIFA[10] and banned from all football-related activities by the Oceania Football Confederation for five years for ethical breaches.[11][12]

Campbell... got the callup for Tupapa because former clubmate Tony Jamieson has been coaching it for a year.
But with the crafty Derek McKillop at the helm and off-season signings that have brought Johnsonville brothers Mark and Tony Jamieson... United have the goods to do more than just fight a relegation battle
