Neil Scally (born 14 August 1978, in Paisley) is a former Scottish footballer. He is currently first team coach at Ayr United.
Early career
Neil Scally played for Ayr United and then Dumbarton.
Falkirk
At Falkirk Scally scored the equalising goal in the 2004 Scottish Challenge Cup Final 2-1 win against Ross County. That same season Scally and Falkirk earned promotion to the Scottish Premier League as Scottish First Division Champions.
He left on a free transfer from Falkirk in the summer of 2006.
Queen of the South
Scally joined Dumfries club Queen of the South. His career was hampered by serious injury, not playing first team football at all in 2008. After playing on 22 December 2007 he did not play first team football for Queens again until 3 January 2009.[1] Scally thus missed the Palmerston Park club's run to the 2008 Scottish Cup Final against Rangers.[2]
On 30 April 2010 Scally was announced as the new assistant manager and Under 19's coach at Queens, whilst remaining on the playing staff.[3] Scally was released from his contract at Queens when the new management team arrived in June 2011. Since then, Scally has been given training facilities with Ayr United and is trying to prove his fitness levels to gain a contract at Somerset Park.[4]
