In July 2015, Roy moved out on loan to Scottish League Two club East Stirlingshire until January 2016.[4] Roy signed a new one-year deal with the Jambos in March 2016,[5] and was loaned out to Scottish League One club Stenhousemuir at the beginning of the 2016–17 season.[6]

After signing a new contract with Hearts in the summer of 2017, he joined Scottish Championship club Dumbarton on loan until January 2018.[7] Roy scored his first goal for the Sons in a 1–1 draw with Falkirk in August 2017.[8] After making 25 appearances for the Sons, scoring three goals, Roy returned to Hearts in January 2018.[9] Roy was then loaned out to Irish club Sligo Rovers in February 2018, on a deal due to run until 30 June 2018.[10]

Roy departed Hearts and signed for Derry City in July 2018,[11] where he remained for the duration of the League of Ireland season before joining Scottish Championship club Partick Thistle in January 2019.[12]

This allowed him his first taste of European football as he featured in both legs of the club's 2018–19 UEFA Europa League tie against Dinamo Minsk of Belarus. Derry lost the first leg 2–0 at home, leaving them with an uphill battle to go through in the second leg.[13] Roy scored in the away leg as Derry bowed out despite winning the game.[14]
