Gary McPhee (born 18 April 1980 in Glasgow. Scotland) is a Scottish footballer and is also a free agent after leaving Nuneaton Borough.
He signed for Coventry City in September 1998 and had a successful loan spell at Newry Town F.C. in which he scored 24 goals 28 appearances. He was on the verge of signing for Queens Park Rangers before breaking both legs.
He then transferred to Portadown F.C. in January 2003. After only half a season at Shamrock Park he signed for St. Patrick's Athletic on a free transfer on 1 August where he scored on his league debut.[1]
He played in the 2003 FAI Cup final at Lansdowne Road alongside Keith Fahey.
McPhee was one of the top scorers in Conference North in 2005–06 after netting 20 goals for Moor Green. But an undisclosed fee saw Nuneaton Borough enable the player to be released from the final year of his contract and he signed on the dotted line at Manor Park. He had a very unhappy spell at Nuneaton, scoring very few goals and being accused by the manager of having a bad attitude. He was sent back to Moor Green at the end of his 1st season.
The 26 year-old had been at the Moorlands since September 2005 during which time he scored 20 goals from 38 appearances
McPhee suffered a dislocated shoulder which saw him leave the professional game and join Moor Green. He played a vital part in Moor Green’s ninth placed in the 2005–06 season.
During his time at Nuneaton Borough, he was voted Player of the Round by the general public in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup.[2] He scored four goals in the 6–0 victory away at Oadby Town F.C..
