Nigel Gibbs (born November 20, 1965 in St Albans), was an English footballer, who played for Watford during his playing career, who played as a right-back.

Gibbs made his Watford debut in 1983, at the age of 17. Gibbs also played in 5 England Under 21 matches in the 1980s. A dependable and loyal right-back, and a fans favourite, Gibbs suffered a career-threatening injury in 1993 and was released in 1996, but stayed with the club, joining them for pre-season training and signed a new contract. Gibbs served Watford as a player for 20 years, making his final appearance for the club in April 2002. After retiring, Gibbs served Watford as a coach for three years, managing on a caretaker basis in March 2005, without managing a single game. He was sacked from the coaching staff in the summer of 2006, which lead to much protest from fans. In 2006, Gibbs received his UEFA Pro Licence, which means he can manage any football club in England on a full time basis. At the beginning of the 2006-07 season Gibbs joined the management team at Reading, where his main responsibility is working with the younger players at the club.
