Career

[edit]

Dunfermline Athletic

[edit]

Born in Bellshill,[2] White began his professional career with Dunfermline Athletic, signing a full-time contract with the Fife side in June 2008, making his senior début aged only 16 in a friendly match against Hearts on 16 July 2008.[2] He made his competitive senior début on 18 August 2009, in a Scottish Challenge Cup tie against Queen of the South.[3] White was awarded the Dunfermline Athletic Under-19 Player of the Year Award for the 2009–10 season.[4]

Loan periods

[edit]

White signed on loan for Clyde in November 2009.[5] He scored his first senior goal in a 2–2 draw with Alloa Athletic on 6 March 2010. He had previously netted on 7 December 2009 in a Scottish Cup tie against Livingston, but the goal did not officially count as the game was abandoned due to heavy fog.[6] White made 22 competitive appearances, the majority in right midfield for Clyde, scoring four goals in the 2009–10 season.

White signed on loan for Dumbarton in March 2011, for the remainder of the 2010–11 season.[7] He made eight competitive appearances for Dumbarton.

Drogheda United

[edit]

White was invited on trial with League of Ireland Premier Division club Drogheda United in June 2011. He was offered a contract until the end of the season, after impressing manager Mick Cooke by scoring in a friendly against Dundee United at United Park on Sunday 26 June 2011.[8] He made 15 competitive appearances for Drogheda United scoring two goals in the 2011 season.

Clyde

[edit]

On his return to Scotland from Ireland White re-signed for Clyde on 2 December 2011.[9] He made six competitive appearances for Clyde scoring one goal in the 2011–12 season.

Falkirk

[edit]

During his second spell with Clyde, White caught the eye of then Falkirk manager Steven Pressley. He was invited to train with the club for a week and after impressing the manager he was offered an 18-month contract in January 2012. White scored two goals for Falkirk in a 3–0 victory against Stenhousemuir in the Stirlingshire Cup on 4 September 2012.[10]

Stirling Albion

[edit]

On 21 September 2012, White went out on loan to Stirling Albion for three months. A day later he scored on his début for his new club against Berwick Rangers.[11] White was also impressive in the historical 1–0 defeat of Rangers on 6 October 2012.[12]

Due to cuts behind the scenes at Falkirk, on 1 January 2013, White agreed to join Stirling Albion on a permanent deal. Manager Greig McDonald was delighted to add White to his squad,[13] while Falkirk manager Steven Pressley said White had been a model professional during his time with the club.[14] He scored his first senior hat-trick by scoring four goals in a 9–1 victory against East Stirlingshire on 9 March 2013, which is currently the club's biggest league win in their history.[15] In the 2012–13 season White scored 15 goals and had 11 assists from 30 appearances which led to him scooping three club awards; Players Player of the Year, Club Player of the Year and Top Goalscorer.[16]

In the 2013–14 season White made 45 appearances, scored 24 goals and had 12 assists which for the second year in a row saw him win the Stirling Albion Players Player of the Year, Club Player of the Year and Top Goalscorer Awards.[17] In his 20 months with the club White made 77 appearances, starting in 75, scored 39 goals including two hat-tricks, and had 23 assists.

Livingston

[edit]

On 4 July 2014, White signed a two-year deal with Livingston.[18] He scored the winner on his home league debut against Cowdenbeath on 16 August 2014.[19] White scored the third hat-trick of his career and first for Livingston on 13 September 2014, versus Alloa Athletic. In the Challenge Cup semi-final against Stranraer, White scored one of the penalties in the shootout to take Livingston into the Final. He also scored two goals in the final to help his club win 4–0 against Alloa Athletic on 5 April 2015.[20] The club were in a relegation battle during his first season and White was instrumental in galvanising the team's safety by scoring two goals against Cowdenbeath on 11 April 2015, when they were losing the game with only 25 minutes remaining, most fans feel that White saved their season by his performance that day. This result helped the club to achieve 13 points in the final 6 games of the season which secured their future in the Scottish Championship. White made 44 appearances and was the club's top goalscorer with 15 goals and six assists from 33 starts in season 2014–15.

White continued his good form into the 2015–16 season, scoring 16 goals and six assists from 33 starts, and in total scored 31 goals and had 12 assists from 66 starts in his Livingston career. His second season with the club ended with White being captain of the team and winning three Club Awards, Players Player of Year, Top Goalscorer and Goal of Season.

Wrexham

[edit]

White signed for Wrexham on 20 May 2016, stating that it was "an easy decision to join Wrexham".[21] However, during pre-season, he was hospitalised after being diagnosed with a problem with his bloodstream and was ruled out for two months. Wrexham manager Gary Mills commented that White had been left "more or less paralysed" by the problem for a time.[22] After being out for the first four months of the season, and not having played a competitive game since 7 May due to his illness, he made his debut on 29 November 2016. On 1 January 2017, White scored his first goal for his new club in his third league start. He ended the season with seven goals, making him the club's top goalscorer for the 2016–17 season. Two days after the final game of the season, it was revealed that White's contract would not be renewed and he would be leaving the club in the summer of 2017.[23] In his time with the club he made 16 starts, one of which was in the centre half position, and scored 7 goals.

Barrow
