He was sent on loan to Forfar in July 2011.[7][8] The loan was due to run until January, but Adam was recalled by Rangers after just one game.[9][10][11] The curtailment of the loan deal required the permission of the Scottish Football League board, which was obtained.[12]

In January 2012, Adam was sent on loan to Airdrie United.[13][14][15] He made his debut on 28 January, playing the full 90 minutes against Stirling.[16] With parent club Rangers going into Administration in February 2012, this led to fears he would have to return to Rangers but he remained with the club.[17][18] On 25 February, he was sent off in the 36th minute against East Fife for a deliberate handball outside the area.[19] Adam said the ball had struck him on the chest however Airdrie decided not to appeal as video evidence wasn't clear enough.[20] In all he made 18 appearances for Airdrie.[21] Following his release from Rangers, Airdrie tried to sign Adam him on a permanent deal[22] however Adam was looking for a full-time club.[23]

On his return from loan, Adam was out of contract.[24] After his contract with Rangers expired, he joined Scottish Premier League side St Mirren on trial.[25][26] He travelled with the club on their pre-season tour of Spain[27] and featured for them as a trialist during their pre-season friendlies.[28][29] On 26 July 2012, Adam signed a two-year contract[30] and was given the squad number 16.[31] During an under-20 match against Celtic on 7 August,[32] Adam damaged his posterior cruciate ligament and suffered a hairline fracture on his tibia in an accidental clash with team mate Jordan Holt;[33] the injury ruled him out of action for three to four months.[34]

Following his return from injury, he rejoined Airdrie United on loan.[35][36] He made his debut for the second time the following day,[37] against Cowdenbeath in a 1–1 draw.[38] After two games on 14 December, his loan was extended until 13 January 2013.[39] Following the death of his father he was granted compassionate leave by the club, missing one game.[40] In all he made eight appearances,[41] before returning to St Mirren.[23]

Adam left St Mirren at the end of the 2012–13 season. He signed for Cowdenbeath[42] and played in 11 Scottish Championship games for the club. In January 2014, he signed for Airdrieonians.[43]

Ahead of the 2014–15 season, Adam signed for Dundee on a short term contract.[44] He left the club at the end of his contract on 1 September 2014.[45]

Morton, Cowdenbeath & Forfar

On 23 September 2014, Adam signed for Alloa Athletic,[46] however three days later Alloa manager Barry Smith announced that due to a problem with the player's registration, the signing would not take place.[47]

International career

Adam has represented Scotland at under-16,[54] under-17[55] and under-19 level.[56]

He was called up to the Scotland under-21 squad for the first time in August 2010.[57] He made his debut on 24 March 2011 in a 1–0 defeat to Belgium.[58] Following his appearance in court for breach of the peace he was dropped from the squad to play the Netherlands in November 2011,[59] losing his starting place to Mark Ridgers.[60] He returned to the international squad on 26 April 2012, as a half time substitute in their match against Italy.[61] He lasted only a few minutes before being stretchered off with a head knock.[62] Adam made six appearances for the squad.[63]
