Management career

He was manager of Prestatyn Town from the 2007–2008 season until March 2011[2] when Lee Jones became first team manager and Gibson became Director of Football. He returned to the post of first team manager the following season, leading the club until January 2018 when he resigned.[3]

After a short spell as a coach with Connah's Quay Nomads, he returned to Prestatyn Town as manager in October 2018.[4] After leading the club to the Cymru North championship title in the 2019–20 season he left the club in October 2020,[5] unhappy with the direction of the club under the new owner Jamie Welsh.[6]

In December 2020 he was appointed manager of Flint Town United.[7] [8] He departed from the club in June 2022.[9]

In August 2022, he returned to Connah's Quay Nomads as the club's first team manager prior to the start of the 2022-23 Cymru Premier season.[10]

On 13 August 2024, Gibson parted company with the club. [11]
