Career

Gribben broke into Hamilton Academical's first team at the age of 16, making his debut in the Scottish Football League in January 2003 in a match against Stenhousemuir.[2] Gribben was released by the club in August 2004,[3] and he later signed with Cowdenbeath, where he was named the Scottish Football League's Young Player of the Month in January 2012.[4] He joined Forfar Athletic in September 2005,[5] 2007,[6] before being released in April 2007.[7] In May 2007, Gribben was targeted by Elgin City,[8] but signed for Stirling Albion in June 2007,[9] before moving to Berwick Rangers in May 2008.[10] Gribben joined Dumbarton in June 2009,[11] but never appeared for the club, and joined Bo'ness in August 2009.[12] After rejoining Berwick, Gribben spoke publicly about his strike partnership with Craig O'Reilly in September 2010.[13] In July 2011, while still contracted with Berwick, Gribben went on trial with first club Hamilton.[14] In July 2012, Gribben signed for Arbroath alongside Kieran Brennan.[15]

He was released by Arbroath, April 2013, and returned to Stranraer.[16]
