John McGrory (born 15 November 1941; died 2004){{NeilBrownPlayers|player/jackiemcgrory}} was a Scottish footballer who played for Kilmarnock for his whole senior career; this period included the 1964/65 season, when Killie won the Scottish league championship for the only time in their history. He also won six caps for the Scotland national football team. Three of these appearances were during a 1967 overseas tour that the Scottish Football Association decided in October 2021 to reclassify as full internationals,{{cite web |url=https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/news/former-scotland-players-to-be-recognised-with-international-caps-including-sir-alex-ferguson/?rid=14258 |title=Former Scotland players to be recognised with international caps including Sir Alex Ferguson |website=www.scottishfa.co.uk |publisher=Scottish Football Association |date=9 October 2021 |accessdate=10 October 2021}} which increased McGrory's cap tally from three to six.
