David Gilroy (born 23 December 1982 in Yeovil) is an English former professional footballer. He currently plays for Bath City who are currently in the Blue Square South (Conference South).
Gilroy began his career as a trainee with Bristol Rovers, turning professional in August 2001. He made his debut on 25 August 2001, as a late substitute for Martin Cameron in Rovers' 3-2 win at home to Luton Town. He joined Bath City on loan in March 2002. He scored twice in five games before returning to Rovers,[8] playing once more before the end of the season.
He joined Forest Green Rovers on a month's loan in August 2003 and joined Clevedon Town on loan the following month.[9] Gilroy spent three months on loan to Chippenham Town before a £1,000 fee was agreed to make the move permanent in February 2005.[10] He finished the 2005-06 season as joint Southern League top scorer, scoring 30 times in total. He scored a further 22 times the following season, attracting the interest of Conference National side Exeter City.[11] However, he returned to Bath City in May 2007,[12] and was their leading scorer in the following season with 26 goals. Since joining City, Gilroy has scored 44 goals, including four hat-tricks, and four goals in one game, which has started to produce him as a fans favorite.
