Colin McMenamin (born 12 February 1981) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a striker for Stenhousemuir.
McMenamin was born in Glasgow and raised in Dumfries, and educated at St Joseph's College.
At age 15 he signed school boy terms with the club he had watched as a supporter, local side Queen of the South. He played in the same youth team as Chris Doig before moving on after a year and a half.
Beginning his senior career in 1999 at Dumfries and Galloway club Annan Athletic, then of the East of Scotland Football League, he was then signed by English Premier League club Newcastle United after one season. He was there for two seasons but did not make a senior appearance.
He returned to Scotland on a free transfer to Livingston in August 2002. In three seasons with the SPL club he scored 10 goals in 50 league appearances. McMenamin also went on loan to Falkirk for half a season (August 2003 – December 2003) during this period; he scored 4 in 16 for the Division One club.
McMenamin was recommended to Shrewsbury Town manager Gary Peters by his assistant Mick Wadsworth. He signed on a free transfer in August 2005. McMenamin was a first-choice regular with the Shropshire club, averaging one goal every four games. With 10 goals in 43 games he was the club's top scorer in the 2005–06 League Two season.
