He represented England U-20 at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship, but has since chosen to represent Scotland at the U-21 level and B level. McEveley made his full international debut for Scotland in the 1–0 win over South Africa on 22 August 2007. He won his third cap during the 1–1 draw with Croatia at Hampden Park, significant as manager George Burley's first match with the side. McEveley was a second half substitute in this match. His next appearance in a Scotland squad wasn't until Craig Levein's first competitive match in charge, as he was called up as a late replacement for the match against Lithuania in September 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
