John Paul Keay[1][2] (born 14 June 1960 in Glasgow)[3] is a Scottish former footballer. Keay, a central defender, began his football career as a junior with Celtic, but never played for the first team.[3] He moved to England where he made more than 300 appearances in the Football League, scoring 20 goals in 155 League games for Shrewsbury Town[4] and 9 goals in 156 League games for Wrexham.[5]

Keay joined Derry City in the League of Ireland in July 1986 and achieved status at the Brandywell by helping the club to a historic 'treble' during his captaincy in the 1988–89 season.[1]
