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]
