Brian McGinty (born 10 December 1976) is a former Scottish professional footballer. After beginning his career with Rangers in the Scottish Football League Premier Division he later played league football in both Scotland and England. He is currently the manager of Rossvale in the Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region.
Born in East Kilbride, McGinty came through the youth system at Rangers. He made his Premier Division debut in January 1995 against Partick Thistle but only made a further three appearances in as many seasons. Former Rangers striker Mark Hateley signed McGinty for Hull City in November 1997 and he played over fifty games for the club before leaving for Conference side Scarborough on a short term deal in August 1999.
McGinty returned to Scotland for a spell at Airdrie but moved on to Irish League side Portadown where he broke his leg in April 2000. On his recovery, McGinty played one match for Dumbarton in August 2000 but he signed for Cumnock Juniors later that month.
McGinty stepped back up to senior football when Tom Hendrie signed him for St Mirren in November 2001. In spite of injury problems which included a Bell's palsy affliction in 2002–03, he appeared 137 times in all competitions for the Paisley side before his contract was cancelled by mutual consent in April 2007.
