Peter MacDonald (born November 17, 1980 in Glasgow) is a Scottish professional footballer, currently playing for St. Johnstone. He was signed in March 2001 from Rangers for a fee of £125,000 by then-manager Sandy Clark.
His time in Perth has been dogged by injury, firstly in September 2002 and again just six months later. He next featured in September 2004, and after coming on as a substitute, MacDonald scored two goals in the last six minutes against Partick Thistle to help Saints to a 2-1 win.
MacDonald was awarded a three-year contract extension in February 2005, which will take him through to the summer of 2008. Again, though, he picked up an injury during the 2005/06 pre-season. He appeared - and scored - in the second competitive match of the season, a 4-0 win over Queen of the South, but returned to the treatment table not long afterwards. It wasn't until February 11 that he next appeared.
In the 2006/07 season, MacDonald was sent off during Saints' 2-2 draw with Ross County in Dingwall on November 11, 2006, just thirteen minutes after coming on as a substitute, for a challenge that gave the visitors a last-minute penalty.[1]
