On 16 April 2015, Meggatt signed a pre-contract agreement with Dundee, agreeing to join the club on a two-year deal at the beginning of the 2015–16 season.[7] He left the club on 22 June 2016, his contract being cancelled by mutual consent.[8] Shortly after leaving Dundee, Meggatt signed for Scottish Championship side Ayr United.[9] He left the club in May 2017, having been unable to commit to full-time football,[10] signing for fellow Scottish League One club Alloa Athletic on the same day.[11] After struggling with injury, Meggatt left Alloa at the end of the 2017–18 season having made seventeen appearances for the side.[12]
