Playing career
Gibson started his career with Stoke City, but moved onto local rivals Port Vale in June 2001, where he made his senior debut on 10 October that year, in a League One score draw at Chesterfield. He left league football at the end of the season on a free transfer to nearby Stafford Rangers.[3]
After a spell with Hednesford Town, he signed with Droylsden at the end of the 2006–07 season. He returned to Rangers after being released by Droyslden in February 2008,[4] but was unable to prevent their slip into the Conference North and left in August of that year.[5]
