Scott P. Fitzgerald (born 18 November 1979) is an English semi-professional footballer. He plays as a striker.
Fitzgerald joined the Brentford Centre of Excellence at age 12 and started his senior career in non-League football at Northwood before being signed by First Division side Watford in February 2003. He made his professional debut on 21 April 2003, coming on as a substitute for Michael Chopra in a home win over Derby County. In his first start for the club he scored his first goal, the second in a 2–0 win over Sheffield United on the final day of the season.
In the 2003–04 season he scored 11 goals to finish as the club's top scorer. At Watford Fitzgerald scored 11 goals in 29 league starts. He fell out of favour in the 2004–05 season, however, and he spent a goalless loan spell at Swansea. He returned to Watford and made several late substitute appearances towards the end of 2004, before being loaned to Leyton Orient in January 2005. On his only appearance for Orient, a home tie with Grimsby Town, he was sent off for violent conduct. He was loaned to Brentford in March 2005, and scored both goals in a 2–0 away win at Oldham Athletic in his second game for the club. He signed permanently later that month, on transfer deadline day.
He scored two further goals that season, and featured as a substitute in the second leg of Brentford's play-off semi-final defeat to Sheffield Wednesday. In 2005–06 he was out of favour, and was loaned out to Oxford United, scoring once against Grimsby, and Walsall. After not scoring in five appearances with Walsall he was released from his five-month loan contract a month early in April 2006.
