Scott Howie (born 4 January 1972 in Glasgow) is a Scottish fomer professional footballer. He was a goalkeeper who played for Clyde F.C., Norwich City F.C., Motherwell F.C., Coventry City F.C., Reading F.C., and Bristol Rovers F.C. before playing non-league football with Shrewsbury Town F.C. and Cambridge United F.C..
Howie was capped by Scotland under-21s while with Clyde and his form persuaded Norwich City manager Mike Walker to pay £300,000 for him in the summer of 1993. Howie was second choice behind fellow Scotsman Bryan Gunn at Carrow Road and made just two appearances when Gunn was suspended. He joined Motherwell at the end of the 1993-94 season.
Howie played for Shrewsbury Town in the final of the 2004 Conference play-offs. The match went to penalties, and Howie saved three of the spot-kicks as The Shrews won promotion back to the Football League. The last season of his career - 2005-06 - was spent at Cambridge United where he played under the management of his former Norwich team-mate Rob Newman. He retired in the summer of 2006, with the Cambridge Evening News reporting on 10 May, 2006 that he had retired to concentrate on his tax consultancy business.
