Peter Cherrie (born: 1 October 1983) is a Scottish goalkeeper who joined Dundalk during the July transfer window this year. Cherrie started his career with Airdrie United but only played one game for them before moving to Ayr United. Another short period there saw him play just six games and he transferred to Clyde ahead of the 2005/06 season after impressing in a trial and a subsequent friendly with Manchester United. He made his competitive debut against Peterhead in the Scottish League Cup a month later and was, like Dundalk team-mate Alex Williams, involved in Clyde’s Scottish Cup giant killing of Celtic the following January. He remained at Broadwood Stadium until June 2009 when he was released, but it wasn’t long before he found a new club as he signed for Dundalk on 8 July, a move which seen him rejoin forces with ex-Clyde boss and player Joe Miller. Cherrie dislodged no1 Chris Bennion almost immediately and made his competitive debut for the Lilywhites in their easy 3-0 win at Galway United on 17 July.
