Career
Reilly began his professional career with Dundee United but failed to make an appearance and was released in April 2002.[1] Reilly went on trial with Morton in July 2002[2] and signed for them shortly afterwards.[3] In Reilly's third match, he was involved in a "knee-high" tackle which saw him seriously injure former Dundee United teammate Sean O'Connor, earning a red card in the process.[4] Reilly played just another four matches, with his final appearance coming in November 2002. After leaving Morton, Reilly moved to South Africa.
