Neil McGregor began his career with Kilmarnock, but failed to make the grade with them and was released. He subsequently signed for Graham Robert’s Clyde in the summer of 2005, and scored on his debut for them in the Scottish Challenge Cup against Brechin City. McGregor flourished after joining Clyde, and was awarded the Man of the Match award during Clyde’s 5–2 extra time defeat to Rangers in the Scottish League Cup.

McGregor was appointed captain in January 2007, however, he was then sidelined by injury for the rest of the season. At the start of the following season McGregor was given the role of club captain, which he held until July 2008.

McGregor was selected in the SPFA First Division Team of 2006–07. In August 2007, Carlisle United were reported to have tabled an offer of £100,000 for the player. However, this offer fell through when Carlisle sacked their manager.

McGregor was released by Clyde in June 2009 along with the rest of the out of contract players, due to the club’s financial position. He went on to sign for Dunfermline Athletic.

On 21 July 2011 it was announced after impressing while on trial that McGregor had signed a one-year deal for Dundee FC. On 31 January 2013 McGregor left Dundee and signed for Scottish 2nd Division side Ayr United, on a loan deal until the end of the season.

On 31 July 2013 McGregor joined Junior side Hurlford United.
