Garry Fleming (born 17 May 1987 in Alexandria), is a Scottish footballer who plays for Alloa Athletic. Flemming, who started his career with Albion Rovers, has also played for Carluke Rovers, Bellshill Athletic, Irvine Meadow and Dumbarton.

Career

Garry began his senior career at Albion Rovers before dropping down to the junior game with Carluke Rovers, Bellshill Athletic and then Irvine Meadow.[1] His prolific form with Irvine earned him a move to hometown team Dumbarton, recently promoted to the Scottish First Division, in June 2012.[2] Fleming established himself as a key player in the side often filling in, in defensive midfield and on the wing. At the end of the 2012–13 season, he won the Lennox Herald's 'Rockstar Award'.[3]

In the 2014–15 season he collected the Trust travel and Sonsview Player of the Year awards.[4] and also finished as the club's top goalscorer with six goals.

He captained the team for the first time in a 2–1 victory over Hibernian. Fleming scored a 25-yard volleyed winner against St Mirren in the club's final home game of the season, a result which kept the club in the Scottish Championship for a further season.[5] It was also his third goal in three games against the Saints.

He won the club's Player of the Year award at the end of the campaign, along with the Players' Player of the Year crown and goal of the season for his volley against St Mirren[6] whilst scoring a career high 11 goals during the season. He renewed his contract at the end of the season[7]

After 179 appearances and 30 goals for the club, he was released in May 2017,[8] signing a one-year deal with Scottish League One side Alloa Athletic on 3 June 2017.[9]
