Alexander Hector McMillan "Ally" McLeod (born 1 January 1951 in Glasgow, Scotland) is a former professional footballer who played as a striker for many league clubs in Scotland and England.
McLeod began his senior career with St. Mirren, who he had joined in 1970 from Renfrew Juniors. He scored four goals in one Scottish League Cup game for St. Mirren against Rangers at Ibrox Stadium, which was the first time that Rangers had lost there to a lower division club and he became the only opposing player to score four goals against Rangers at Ibrox in one match.
Southampton then signed McLeod, but he failed to settle in Hampshire and he returned to Scotland with Hibernian. MacLeod, who was a relatively prolific goalscorer in a defensive era, scored for Hibernian in the 1979 Scottish Cup Final second replay against Rangers.
