In April 2006 United player-manager Craig Brewster told a group of his more experienced and highly-paid players, including the former Reading and <?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = &quot;ST1&quot; \/><ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Kilmarnock<\/ST1:PLACE> striker, that their services would no longer be required. The 34 year-old joined <ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Dunfermline<\/ST1:PLACE> on a two year deal. An experienced striker, Jim can also play in left midfield. <\/P><P>McIntyre began his senior career in 1991 in <ST1:COUNTRY-REGION w:st=&quot;on&quot;>England<\/ST1:COUNTRY-REGION> at <ST1:PLACENAME w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Bristol<\/ST1:PLACENAME> <ST1:PLACETYPE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>City<\/ST1:PLACETYPE> and while there, he had a three month loan spell with <ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;><ST1:PLACENAME w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Exeter<\/ST1:PLACENAME> <ST1:PLACETYPE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>City<\/ST1:PLACETYPE> <\/ST1:PLACE>.

He was a member of Killie&#39;s Scottish Cup winning side in 1997. <?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = &quot;O&quot; \/><O:P><\/O:P><\/P><P>Former boss Tommy Burns took Jim to <ST1:CITY w:st=&quot;on&quot;><ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Reading<\/ST1:PLACE> <\/ST1:CITY>in March 1998 but after Burns left, Jim was less prominent as a first team regular during Alan Pardew&#39;s tenure at Elm Park\/Madejski Stadium. <ST1:CITY w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Reading<\/ST1:CITY> paid a fee of &#163;440,000, and just a month after joining them he appeared for <ST1:COUNTRY-REGION w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Scotland<\/ST1:COUNTRY-REGION> alongside the Pars Andy Smith, in a &#39;B&#39; international against <ST1:COUNTRY-REGION w:st=&quot;on&quot;><ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Norway<\/ST1:PLACE> <\/ST1:COUNTRY-REGION>. However, his career at <ST1:CITY w:st=&quot;on&quot;><ST1:PLACE w:st=&quot;on&quot;>Reading<\/ST1:PLACE> <\/ST1:CITY>failed to take off, and he was released at the end of his contract in 2001.
