Neil Janczyk (born 7 April 1983) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays for SJFA East Super League club Penicuik Athletic.

Career

He spent his early career at Heart of Midlothian, but he could only manage a handful of appearances before being released. He is best remembered by Hearts fans for two assists in a 2–1 defeat of Edinburgh derby rivals Hibs in a match played at Easter Road on 3 November 2002.

Janczyk was released by Hearts in 2005 and he then signed for St Johnstone. He again failed to hold down a regular place, and St Johnstone loaned Janczyk out to Raith Rovers and then Stranraer. He was released by St Johnstone at the end of the 2006–07 season after two years with the club.[1] Janczyk signed for Brechin City in July 2007[2] and moved to East Fife in January 2012.[3] He then signed for Berwick Rangers in July 2012 before moving to Clyde on 27 January 2014 having already featured in two matches for them as a trialist.[4]

On 5 June 2014, Janczyk signed for Penicuik Athletic junior side after he was released by Clyde.[5] Janczyk ended the season with six goals from thirty-six appearances, and having claimed the goal of the season award, for a strike against Glenrothes.
