Career

Born in Kendal, Cumbria, Thompson scored Morecambe's first goal in the Conference play-off Final against Exeter City in May 2007.
In January 2008, Morecambe turned down a £10,000 offer from Bradford City for Thompson. Instead he agreed to sign for Scunthorpe United on a three-year contract on 27 May 2008 on a free transfer, joining on 1 July.
He was released by the club in May 2012. Thompson signed a one-year contract with Bradford City on 4 July 2012. He made his debut on 11 August in the League Cup during a 1–0 win against Notts County. He then made his league debut a week later against Gillingham. He made his home debut on 21 August in a 1–0 win against Fleetwood Town, coming on as a substitute for Zavon Hines. On 28 August, he scored his first goal for the club, scoring an injury-time winner in a 2–1 win in the League Cup against Watford. On 11 December, he helped Bradford to the semi-finals of the League Cup by scoring against Arsenal. He scored his first league goal for the club on 26 December in a 2–1 win at home to Accrington Stanley. On 2 May 2013, he scored in the first leg of the play-off semi-final against Burton Albion. In the final, he assisted goals from both Nahki Wells and James Hanson as Bradford beat Northampton Town 3–0 and secured promotion to League One.
On 23 July 2014, Garry Thompson signed for Notts County. After one season with County, he joined Wycombe Wanderers on a two-year deal. He scored in the 83rd minute of Wycombe's FA Cup fourth round match against Tottenham Hotspur on 28 January 2017 after heading in Myles Weston's cross to give Wycombe a 3–2 lead, although Wycombe went on to lose the match 4–3. At the end of the 2016–17 season, Thompson left Wycombe Wanderers after his contract was not renewed.
Thompson returned to Morecambe in June 2017 after 9 years away from the club. He made his second competitive debut in the opening game of the new season, a 2-1 win over Cheltenham Town. Thompson scored both goals to complete the comeback, including a last minute winner.
