Career

Dundee

Promoted to the first team following Dundee going into administration and nine of their first team players being released.[1] Mcintosh made his debut on 11 December 2010 as a substitute against Morton in the Scottish First Division.[2] He made 12 appearances scoring 4 goals that season. His contribution to Dundee's relegation survival was recognised when he won Young Player of the Month award for April 2011. [3] On 12 May 2011 he signed a new three-year contract for Dundee.[4]

After Dundee secured promotion to the Scottish Premiership in May 2014 he was released by the club.[5]

Loan moves

McIntosh spent the 2012–13 season on loan at Montrose[6]

On 31 January 2014, he moved on loan to Arbroath.[7]

McIntosh signed for Montrose in September 2014, on a short term contract until January 2015.[8] He made his debut on 21 September 2014, in Montrose's 1–0 win against Elgin City.[9]

Peterhead

McIntosh signed for League 1 Peterhead on the 24th of July 2015 following an impressive trial.[10] He has made an instant impact helping the team to an impressive 5–3 win over Falkirk[11] in the Petrofac Cup and scoring the winner over Dunfermline in a potential title decider.[12]

On 14 November 2015 McIntosh scored the winner in a 2–1 victory over Queens Park to send Peterhead into their first senior cup final. [13]

On 21 November 2015 McIntosh scored his first senior hat-trick for Peterhead in a 7–0 win against Cowdenbeath. [14] [15]
