Gibson was part of the 1995 FA Youth Cup winning side, and became a professional shortly afterwards. He spent four years at Old Trafford after this, but never managed to play a first team game.

During his time at United, he had loan spells at Halifax Town, Mansfield Town and Hull City.

On his departure from Old Trafford, he signed for Notts County in Division Two, making 12 appearances in two seasons before dropping out of the Football League to sign for Nationwide Conference side Northwich Victoria. During his time at Notts County, he had a loan spell at Rochdale.

He was at Northwich Victoria for over a year and played 54 games in the Nationwide Conference before leaving halfway through the 2002–03 season.

He then began teaching PE to 11–18-year olds at the Marlborough School, Woodstock, England until he left in 2011, and is now at Weston Favel Academy where he teaches PE and sport studies.

Famous quotes containing the word gibson:

    Night City was like a deranged experiment in Social Darwinism, designed by a bored researcher who kept one thumb permanently on the fast-forward button. Stop hustling and you sank without a trace, but move a little too swiftly and you’d break the fragile surface tension of the black market; either way, you were gone ... though heart or lungs or kidneys might survive in the service of some stranger with New Yen for the clinic tanks.
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)
