Darren McGeough (born 28 February 1990 in Glasgow) is a Scottish football player, in his second spell with Scottish First Division team Greenock Morton.

McGeough has also played for Stranraer and Falkirk Amateurs, since leaving Celtic in 2007.

Career

McGeough started his career in Celtic's youth team before signing for Greenock Morton in 2007, choosing the Greenock side over rivals St. Mirren and Kilmarnock.^[1] He stayed at the club for two seasons, making no appearances before signing with Stranraer. On 7 November 2009, McGeough scored his first (and so far only) goal in senior football in a 4-2 defeat for Stranraer by English side Berwick Rangers.^[2]

McGeough had two spells with Stranraer, the last of which ended in March 2011 when he signed for an amateur side in Falkirk. In between these two spells at Stair Park, McGeough was not with a club due to a change in personal circumstances, but did play in a few trial matches with Glasgow Perthshire, and for his college side.

In the summer of 2011, his first senior club Morton surprisingly re-signed the now 21 year old midfielder.

McGeough made his début as a second half substitute (for Peter MacDonald) in the 8-0 Ramsden's Cup victory over his former side Stranraer.^[3]
