David Pipe (born November 5, 1983 in Caerphilly, Wales) is a professional football player. He currently plays for Notts County. He is 5 ft 9 in (175 cm) and weighs 12 stone (168 lb or 76 kg).

Regarded as one of the best players in League 2, he can play at right back, right wing and even as a sweeper. He has captained the Wales Under 21 team at the international level.

Pipe was brought to Notts County by Gary Mills from Coventry City. He started brilliantly until a sudden dip in form saw Mills put him on the transfer list. When Ian Richardson was appointed manager he took Pipe off the transfer list. A turnaround in form saw Pipe play most of County's games in the 2004-05 season and get 2 league goals for the club.

Despite a disappointing season for Notts in 2005-06, Pipe enjoyed a particularly strong season, and was voted Player of the Year. He capped the season off with a new 2 year contract, citing his love for the fans as the reason for him signing.
