Scott Bonner McLaughlin (born 20 January 1984 in Glasgow) is a Scottish former professional association footballer, who plays for Doncaster City.
McLaughlin played a reasonable number of games at Livingston, where in the 2004 Scottish League Cup Final he appeared in the 80th minute as a substitute at right back versus Hibernian.

In the 2008 Scottish Challenge Cup Final, McLaughlin was successful with his spot kick in the penalty shoot-out, as his club were victorious versus Ross County.
Manager Gus MacPherson announced on 8 July 2011 that McLaughlin had agreed terms and was expected to sign that day for Dumfries club, Queen of the South.
[3] McLaughlin's debut for the Doonhamers was on 23 July 2011, in an extra time 2–0 defeat away to his former club, the Honest Men at Somerset Park in the 2011–12 Scottish Challenge Cup.
