In 2004, he joined Clyde, then under the guidance of McCluskey's former teammate in Perth, Alan Kernaghan, until the end of the season. [2]

For the 2004/5 season he joined Greenock Morton, [3] with whom he played one season, before moving back to Tayside to sign with St Johnstone's rivals Dundee, again linking up with Kernaghan, who was the new boss at Dens Park. [4]

In April 2006, McCluskey was one of several players released by Dundee. He was reported to be looking to try his hand in Australia, [5] and in May 2007 joined Melbourne-based Richmond SC, becoming club captain. During the 2008 season he also took up coaching and along with Tony Gignalito coached the Under 16 Richmond junior boys team. [6]
