Philip McCloy (April 1896 – 1972) was a Scottish footballer who played as a full back. McCloy won two caps for Scotland during a seven-year spell with Ayr United. He then played 157 times for Manchester City between 1925 and 1929.[1]
On his international debut in 1924, he was selected alongside fellow newcomer and Ayr United teammate Jock Smith in the Scottish defence against England at Wembley, the match ending in a draw.[2] The following year he was on the winning side in the same fixture at Hampden Park, this time partnered by Jimmy McStay of Celtic.
McCloy was later player-manager of French club Rennes for a short period in 1933.[3]
