Matthew Stephen "Matt" Tubbs (born 15 July 1984) is an English professional footballer who plays as a striker for National League club Eastleigh.

Born in Salisbury, Wiltshire, Tubbs played for Bournemouth as a schoolboy before joining Bolton Wanderers, where he regularly played in the reserve team. Two years later he rejoined Bournemouth on non-contract terms in 2003, before dropping into non-League football with Dorchester Town. He signed for Salisbury City in October 2003, making his debut against Fleet Town. He helped Salisbury rise through the leagues, becoming a regular goalscorer within the side. In the 2005–06 season he helped Salisbury pick up promotion and as a reward was picked out in the Southern Premier League's Team of the Year.

The following season, he was again a major part of City's success in the Conference South, scoring many important goals for the side. He scored an equaliser against Nottingham Forest in the second round of the FA Cup to take the tie to a replay, in front of the BBC cameras. He got sent off for the fourth time of the season against his former club, Dorchester Town. This resulted in a six-game ban for the striker. In the 2007 Conference South play-off Final, he scored the winner in the 81st minute to send his side to the Conference Premier. This was the 30th goal of the season for the striker, and he was rewarded with an England National Game XI call up that summer.
