Career

Ross County

A member of Ross County's youth squad, Ross was sent out on loan during the 2011–12 season to Highland Football League sides Brora Rangers[2] and Forres Mechanics to gain first team experience.[3] On his return from his loans he signed a one-year contract extension, extending his stay until May 2013.[4]

On 29 September 2012, he made his first team debut, coming on as an 87th-minute substitute in a Scottish Premier League match against St Mirren, replacing Iain Vigurs in a 5–4 defeat.[5] His first start came on 20 October, in a 3–2 win over Hibernian.[6] [7] Ross scored his first goal in senior football on 3 November 2012, in a 2–1 win against Aberdeen.[8]

On 31 January 2014, Ross returned for a second loan spell at Brora Rangers.[9]

He joined Dumbarton on 26 August 2015[10] He was allowed to leave the club at the end of his short-term deal after travelling became an issue.[11]
