Career
Gibbons began his career at youth level with Hamilton Academical, leaving the club in 2009; upon his departure he was then unable to sign for another club unless they paid Hamilton £9000 in compensation.[1] In January 2011, Hamilton agreed to release his registration and he signed for Aberdeen.[2] He made his only appearance on 23 November 2014, coming on as an 86th-minute substitute for Cammy Smith in their 1–0 win at Partick Thistle in the Scottish Premiership.[3] He was an unused substitute in five more league matches and one Scottish Cup fixture as Aberdeen finished as Premiership runners-up.
On 30 June 2015, after a trial, Gibbons signed for Scottish Championship club Livingston.[4] He made his debut on 25 July, in the first round of the Scottish Challenge Cup, playing the entirety of a 2–1 home win over Clyde.[5] In February 2016, Gibbons signed on loan with Cowdenbeath for the remainder of the 2015–16 season.[6]
Gibbons joined East Kilbride in the 2016 close season,[7] spending two seasons with the side before joining Stenhousemuir in May 2018.[8]
