Bryan Prunty (born 12 January 1983) is a Scottish former footballer[1] who is on the backroom staff at Scottish Championship club Airdrieonians.

Career

Club

Prunty began his career with Celtic, but he failed to make a senior appearance. In January 2004, he moved to fellow Scottish Premier League club Aberdeen,[2] making his senior debut in a Scottish Cup replay victory against Dundee on 21 January 2004.[3] His first senior goal came on 27 March 2004 in a 3–1 defeat against Kilmarnock.[4] At the end of the 2003–04 season, Prunty was told by manager Jimmy Calderwood that he could leave the club.[5]

On 6 August 2004, Prunty signed for Inverness Caledonian Thistle.[6] A year later he joined Airdrie United[7] where he was recognised as the club's 2005–06 Player of the Year. Prunty then signed for Airdrie's Second Division rivals Ayr United in May 2008.[8] In May 2009, he was recognised by his fellow professionals as 2nd Division player of the year for 2008–2009.[9]

Prunty spent part of the 2009–10 season on loan at Stirling Albion.[10] It was widely believed Prunty would sign permanently for Stirling in January 2010, but instead he was snapped up by Alloa Athletic.[11] Prunty scored on his Alloa debut in a 2–0 win over Stenhousemuir.[12]

On 16 May 2011, Prunty then joined Dumbarton.[13] In February 2012, he scored an overhead kick against Stenhousemuir which was voted as SFL Goal of the Month,[14] then a year later won the same award after scoring a stunning overhead bicycle kick from the edge of the box in a match against Livingston in February 2013, which was reported to have been viewed so many times it caused the Livingston club website to crash.[15] The goal was also voted Goal of the Season at both the PFA Scotland and Scottish Football League end of season awards.[16][17] On 16 May 2013, Prunty agreed a new one-year contract with Dumbarton.[18] In May 2014 Prunty agreed a new one-year deal with Dumbarton.[19]

Despite only signing a new deal in May 2014, Prunty joined Scottish League One Airdrieonians on 30 August 2014.[20] He left the club in May 2016 after it was announced Airdrie would be operating full-time from June 2016, signing for Scottish League Two side Arbroath shortly after.[21] After 18 months with the Red Lichties, Prunty signed for Lowland League side East Kilbride in January 2018.[22] After five months with EK, he joined fellow Lowland League side BSC Glasgow in June 2018.[23] He only spent a short period with BSC before joining Scottish Junior Football Association side Cumbernauld United.[24]

Coaching career

Prunty left Cumbernauld United in November 2018 to join the coaching staff at Airdrieonians, working alongside former manager Ian Murray.[25]

International

Prunty played and scored for the Scotland Under-20 side in 2003 against Portugal.[26] He also played three times for the Under-21 side in 2004.[27]
