Career

McGregor began his career with Kilmarnock, but failed to make the grade with them.

McGregor signed for Clyde in the summer 2005, and scored on his debut in the Scottish Challenge Cup against Brechin City. McGregor has gone from strength to strength since joining Clyde, and was awarded the Man of the Match award during Clyde's 5-2 extra time defeat to Rangers in the Scottish League Cup.

McGregor was appointed Clyde captain in January 2007, due to the departure of Paul McHale. However, due to injury, McGregor was sidelined for the rest of the season, allowing Michael McGowan to captain the side. McGowan was officially appointed as team captain in August 2007, whereas McGregor was given the role of club captain, which he held until July 2008.[1]

McGregor was selected in the SPFA First Division Team of 2006-07. In August 2007, Carlisle United were reported to have table an offer of £100,000 for McGregor. However, this offer fell through when Carlisle sacked their manager.[2]

McGregor was released by Clyde in June 2009 along with the rest of the out of contract players, due to the club's financial position.[3] He went on to sign for Dunfermline Athletic.

His younger brother Calum is also a footballer, and was previously on the books of Clyde.[4]
