Career

Celtic & Ross County

Irvine started his career at Celtic, but failed to make an appearance for the club during his time there.

At the start of the 2006–07 season, he moved on loan to Ross County. During his time at County, he was involved as they won the 2006–07 Scottish Challenge Cup, beating Clyde on penalties.[1]

St Johnstone

After leaving Celtic, Irvine signed for Scottish First Division side St Johnstone.[2] In his first season at McDiarmid Park, he won the 2007–08 Scottish Challenge Cup, his second winners medal in that competition in successive seasons, with St Johnstone winning 3–2 against Dunfermline Athletic.[3] The following season, he was part of the squad as St Johnstone won the Scottish First Division. At the end of the 2009–10 season he was one of eight players released by the club.[4] Irvine scored once during his spell at the club; his goal coming in a 3–1 win over Dunfermline Athletic in April 2009.[5]

Dundee

On 24 July 2010, Irvine signed for Dundee, of the Scottish First Division.[6] In July 2012, with Dundee having been promoted to the Scottish Premier League after the demotion of Rangers, he signed a new deal with the club,[7] despite interest from several Scottish Premier League clubs including his former team, Ross County.[8] After Dundee's relegation from the Scottish Premier League, Irvine agreed terms on a new contract for the 2013–14 season.[9]

St Mirren

On 29 January 2016 Saints signed Irvine from Dundee until the end of the season, with the option of a further year.[10] He was released by St Mirren at the end of the 2017–18 season.[11]
