Stuart Noble (born 14 October 1983 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish professional footballer currently playing for Scottish Second Division side Alloa Athletic .
Noble began his career as a trainee with Fulham, turning professional in January 2002. He spent 3 and a half years as a professional with Fulham, but failed to make a single first team appearance. He had loan spells with St. Johnstone (January–May 2003), Woking (May–April 2004), Torquay United (August–September 2004) and Northampton Town (February 2005) before being released by Fulham at the end of the 2004–05 season.
He had a trial with Partick Thistle and joined East Fife at the end of August 2005. He played 12 times for the club, his last game coming in the 3–0 Scottish Cup defeat at home to Peterhead in December 2005 and he left the club in January 2006. He remained without a club for the remainder of the 2005–06 season as he recovered from a back injury.
In May 2006, the Border Telegraph reported that he was to sign for Scottish non-league side Gala Fairydean. In his only season at the club he was top scorer with 20 goals in 23 games.
He signed for Second Division side Airdrie United in the summer of 2007 following a trial and was given a contract extension in June 2008, despite interest from Dundee.[1]
