James McKinstry (born 3 July 1979 in Glasgow) is a Scottish former footballer, who notably played for Clydebank and Partick Thistle.
McKinstry was a defender who could play anywhere at the back as well as in midfield, and has a vast wealth of experience in the Scottish Football League, having played for Clydebank, Partick Thistle, Dumbarton and Ayr United, before moving to Stair Park to join Stranraer in the summer of 2007.
