Gregory James Philip "Greg" Farrell (born 19 March 1944 in Motherwell) is a former Scottish professional footballer.

Beginning his career at Birmingham City, Farrell found his chances limited and George Swindin signed him for a moderate fee to play for Cardiff City in March 1964. Playing as a winger, he often showed flashes of brilliance, including scoring one and supplying four other goals during a 5-3 win over Middlesbrough in May 1966. He eventually left the club in 1967 to sign for Bury. Farrell later went onto play in South Africa before retiring.
