Gary Oliver, born on 14 July 1995 (age 31), is a Scottish striker with Montrose. He is an established lower-league professional rather than a name requiring much embroidery, and his current market value is around £64,000, according to Transfermarkt.

His career comprises spells at Queen of the South and Greenock Morton with repeated returns between those clubs, a move to Falkirk in July 2022 and a transfer to Montrose in July 2026 – the sequence reflects a career spent within a compact group of Scottish clubs and frequent short-term moves rather than a single long-term spell.
