Gary Oliver

Gary Oliver of Falkirk was born on 14 July 1995 (age 30).

Gary Oliver, born on 14 July 1995 in Scotland, currently reigns as an accomplished forward who majorly plays as a striker for Falkirk. Standing at a sturdy 5ft 10in (1.78m), and weighing in at a solid 11st 4lb (72kg), Oliver sports the number 18 jersey on the field.

Having proved himself on the field time and time again, it is few and far between who'd be surprised at Oliver's current market value, bobbing around the £70k, according to Transfermarkt.

His career in football began earnestly in the summer of 2013 when he joined Hearts, a prestigious team in the Scottish Premiership. He put his skills to the test during his debut season in 2013-2014, where he made himself noticed on the pitch during eight of the first team league matches.

During the following 2014-2015 season at Hearts, Oliver had his chance to shine, making a total of nine appearances and scoring his first goal in league matches. His participation in the following 2015 - 2016 season was considerably more condensed, having made a solitary first appearance in a league match.

In September 2014, Hearts loaned Oliver out to the League One Scottish team, Stenhousemuir. During this season, he made 11 first team appearances and located the back of the net twice in league matches. As his tenure with Stenhousemuir was temporary, Oliver returned to Hearts in December 2014 to finish his services there.

In September 2015, Oliver parted ways with Hearts for undisclosed terms in favour of Queen of the South, another team in League One, Scotland. Throughout the 2015 - 2016 season under his new banner, Oliver took to the pitch 28 times and notched six successful goals.

Making the move to the Championship, Scotland league in July 2016, he joined and debuted for Greenock Morton. In his first season, 2016 - 2017, he made 30 first team appearances and found success seven times within the goal posts. His 2017 - 2018 season saw him making 19 appearances and scoring twice.

After his spell with Greenock Morton, Oliver once again joined Queen of the South in July 2019. Emulating performances from his previous stint, he made 28 appearances for the team, serving them six successful goals during the 2015 - 2016 season.

However, craving a fresh change of scene, he decided to return to Greenock Morton in the Championship, Scotland in August 2020. In two seasons, from 2016 - 2018, he made 49 first team appearances and scored nine goals.

The latest move in his career placed him firmly with Falkirk in the Premiership, Scotland, in 2022. Oliver made a commendable number of appearances in two seasons, from 2022 - 2025, standing in total at a whopping 60 times. Furthermore, he managed to make the net bulge on nine occasions. Oliver continues to make his mark in the current 2025 - 2026 season with three first team appearances in league matches.
