Career
McAusland, from Cumnock, East Ayrshire, joined Rangers aged thirteen in 2006. At that time he played as a striker and during his spell in the youth teams played in a variety of positions before settling as a right back.
McAusland was loaned to Ayr United for the first part of the 2012–13 season[1] and signed a new contract with Rangers in February 2013, through to the summer of 2015.[2] A few months later he made his competitive Rangers debut in a Challenge Cup at right back on 27 July against Albion Rovers.[3] McAusland went on to make a further six appearances for Rangers (five of which were starts) before losing his place in the side after the signing of the experienced Richard Foster. In October 2013, McAusland re-joined Ayr United for the rest of the 2013–14 season after requesting more first-team football.[4]
After failing to feature in manager Ally McCoists plans at the start of the season, McAusland was loaned out to Brechin City in September 2014.[5] In January 2015, after return from his loan spell, McAusland had his contract terminated with Rangers in order for him to join Dunfermline Athletic.[6]
On 22 June 2015 Alloa Athletic announced the signing of McAusland.[7]
McAusland joined Junior side Glenafton Athletic in July 2016.[8]
McAusland signed with Cumnock Juniors in June 2020.[9][10]
