Career
Abbot, born in Dundee, began his career with Dundee United, making his senior debut in April 2006 as a late substitute in an SPL match at Inverness CT. Offered a new one-year contract shortly afterwards, Abbot made his full debut at home the following week, although his third appearance ended early due to injury. It proved to be Abbot's last appearance in senior football; he quit professional football in September to pursue full-time university studies and he was released from his United contract, subsequently joining local side Carnoustie Panmure. Abbot moved to Lochee United in July 2008. Having graduated from university, he relocated to Aberdeen. Abbot trained with junior side Banks O' Dee and after proving his fitness signed for the club.
