Career

Bristol Rovers

Kilgour began his career in the academy at Bristol Rovers aged eight,[3] and first featured in the matchday squad for the first team while still an under-18, twice appearing as an unused substitute for EFL League Two games in the 2015–16 season. In February 2016, Kilgour was loaned to Mangotsfield United. After promotion that season, with first team opportunities hard to come by, he was loaned out again, this time to Cirencester Town in September 2016, and then to Hungerford Town in March 2018. In November 2018, Kilgour joined Maidenhead United on loan and made his debut in their televised FA Cup game at home to Portsmouth. In January 2019, his loan was extended until the end of the season.[4] After 19 games and three goals in all competitions, Kilgour was recalled by Rovers in March to boost their defensive options.[5] He made his debut on 12 March when he came on as a late substitute in a 1–0 away win at Gillingham.[6] His first start came eleven days later, playing the entirety of a 2–2 draw away at Plymouth Argyle.[7]

At the end of the 2018–19 season, Bristol Rovers exercised a contract extension for him.[8] He signed a new contract in August 2019.[9] He scored his first goal for the club in an EFL Trophy tie against Leyton Orient on 4 December 2019.[10]

On 4 July 2020, Kilgour signed another new contract with Rovers that would see him stay at the club until the end of the 2022-23 season after having a breakthrough season that saw him make 45 appearances in all competitions before the season was cut short.[11]
