Paul Scott (born 5 November 1979, in Wakefield) is an English professional footballer who now plays for Wakefield City FC.

Playing career

Scott in a Bury pre-match warm up (March 2008).

Huddersfield Town

Beginning his career as a trainee at Huddersfield Town, Scott made debut in a 1–0 win at Peterborough United on 17 August 2002.

Scott left Huddersfield in 2004 after making 34 appearances and scoring two goals.

Bury

Moving on a free transfer, Scott joined Bury initially on non-contract terms, debuting for the club on 22 August 2004 in a 1–1 draw against Chester City. Scott established himself as a regular in Bury's starting side towards the end of the 2004–05 season, after signing a permanent contract.

Originally a centre-back, Scott also played in midfield, but was most familiar with the right back position during his time at Bury.

Morecambe

Scott signed a two-year contract with Morecambe in June 2010. Unfortunately, Scott spent much of his time with The Shrimps suffering from long term injury problems. As a result, his contract was mutually terminated early in April 2012.

Personal

In 2010, Scott was studying part-time for a bachelor's degree in Sports Performance at the University of Salford.[1]
