Michael Mackay (born 11 October 1982 in Durham England) is a professional footballer playing for Hartlepool United after being snapped up from non-league Consett by Danny Wilson for his impressive goalscoring record.^[1]

He made the move to Durham City from Birtley where he found the net prolifically scoring 29 goals in his first season. He scored 30 goals before moving to Consett.

Mackay scored a remarkable 43 goals in the first half of the 2006/7 season^[2] which tempted Hartlepool to sign him in February 2007.

Michael scored his first league goal for Hartlepool United on Tuesday 2nd October against Carlisle United, and then scored another goal in the Johnstone Paint Trophy against Lincoln City on the Tuesday 9th October, just a week after scoring his first.
