After moving to other clubs around Scotland including SPL side Hibernian, he moved to Rotherham United and enjoyed a four-year stint, where by the end of his spell he was made club captain.
After Rotherham got relegated in 2005, McIntosh moved to Huddersfield, where he tried to establish a central defender slot aginst Nathan Clarke, Tom Clarke and David Mirfin. Unfortunately, with in a month of the start of the season, he had a major injury and didn't play again till around December. He has established himself as a strong character and can score superb headers and bolster the defence as well.
