William "Willie" Gibson (born 6 August 1984) is a Scottish footballer who plays for Stranraer as a midfielder.
Gibson has previously played for Queen of the South (twice), Kilmarnock, Dunfermline Athletic, Crawley Town, St Johnstone, Falkirk, Celtic Nation, Workington and Dumbarton.
Born in Dumfries, Gibson started his senior career with hometown club Queen of the South. Gibson made his debut on the final day of the season as Queen of the South were defeated 1–0 by Queen's Park. He played in 93 league matches for the Dumfries club without scoring a goal. Gibson did score his solitary goal for Queens during his first spell with a 50th-minute winner in a 2–1 Scottish Cup third round match versus Montrose on 8 January 2005.
Gibson joined top flight outfit Kilmarnock from the Palmerston Park side in early 2007, in a deal which saw Stevie Murray and Jamie Adams join Queens on loan for the rest of the 2006–07 season. Gibson's last game for Queens, a Scottish Cup quarter final tie at home against Hibernian, was one of some controversy. Queens manager Ian McCall selected Adams to play, despite Adams having been an unused sub for Kilmarnock in that season's Scottish Cup third round. Queens were subsequently fined £20,000 by the SFA for fielding a 'cup tied' player. Queens chairman Davie Rae said of the fine "it's a substantial sum".
